If it weren't for the Phillies, I'd be 100% for the Rockies winning the Wild Card. As it is, they're a great alternative and if the Phils can overtake the Mets, more power to the Rockies. Until I moved to Philadelphia (and except for the lovable Expos), the Rockies have been by far my favorite NL franchise since coming into existence.

I was watching the Phillies game last night and for a while i was rooting for them, but in all honesty I really want the Rockies to pull this off and beat out the Padres to make the playoffs.

You and me both... how would you classify yourself politically speaking?

I live in Northern Delaware and hate having the Phillies and Eagles shoved down my throat. I hated the Phillies team I was introduced to in 2000-2002 so I have hated the Phillies since, but the new Phillies are actually decent to watch.

At least as of right now, in the Wild Card race, my allegiance is with the Colorado Rockies.

But, the Phillies dont have to play the Marlins anymore so they may not embarrass themselves in the last game of the season.

:confused: Is it your theory that one's political affiliation affects their support of the Colorado Rockies? What does that question have to do with anything?

If I had gotten an answer so would have you... it has nothing to do with more support for the Rockies as much as it does with pulling against the Padres.... assuming you're not a hard line lefty.. politcially\culturally speaking...

Absolutely ridiculous to bring this up. I'm not going to make this political, but it's silly to think you can pin someone down politically by what team they root for, or vice versa.

Wasn't doing any such thing.. was asking about politcial leaning to see if what the article described would assist in his pulling against the Padres, if not, not problem, was only trying to be helpful. :D

10 in a row now... winthin 1 of wildcard and 2 of Dbacks with 3 games left against the Dbacks. GO ROCKIES!

    • Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.
    • Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?
    • I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.
    • This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.
    • I have it on dvr and I timed it four times. I got 10.75, 10.80, 10.74, and 10.78.
    • This is exactly what EDC said tonight     
    • My guess is more of a safety profile than they preferred. They clearly wanted Wiggins. They ran that pick up fast. And then when you listen to the press conference, the love for the player was obvious.
