Ah, you other 29 teams... How I love to remark upon your strengths and expose your weaknesses in just 10 words (or less!) each week. I like to think these updates encourage fans of teams other than the Yankees to read what the good ol' Yankees Chick has to say. I also like to think anyone could be encouraged to read anything the good ol' Yankees Chick has to say. Dreams are fun!
AL East Tampa Bay is totally taking the division Boston (77-51): We've still got 6 games against you. Expect strong fight! Toronto (64-63): You crush Sox for me, I'll buy you a beer. Baltimore (58-68): I liked you when you beat Boston. No mas. Tampa Bay (48-79): Willing to make the same deal that I offered Toronto.
AL Central Remember when we all thought the wildcard would come from here? Cleveland (70-56): Beat the Tigers. Methinks that sealed the deal for you. Detroit (68-59): You just keep sinking. Good for Yankees! Minnesota (64-63): No real hope, but at least you beat Seattle. Kansas City (56-73): You're not in last place! That's gotta feel good! Chicago (56-71): Even Shoeless Joe Jackson is ashamed of you.
AL West I have 2 enemies in this division now. Los Angeles (74-53): Beating Yanks now your claim to fame. I liked monkey. Seattle (72-53): COME ON NOW. Start losing, pronto. Oakland (65-64): Won 8 of last 10! Congratulations! Still no post-season. Texas (56-71): First Gagne, now Otsuka. Never any save situations anyway.
NL East I want to see Pittsburgh on top of this list! New York (71-55): Where's Pedro!? I've got $20 on his failure. Philadelphia (66-60): So close yet so far. So very far. Atlanta (66-62): Maybe Sawx fans were on to something when they dubbed him "Rent-a-Wreck". Washington (58-72): You're not in last place! That's gotta feel good! Florida (57-71): Good thing you fired Girardi. Losing is more fun.
NL Central I taunt you with my St. Louis comment... muahahhaha Chicago (65-61): Every little bit helps in post-season race. Milwaukee (65-62): It's a slippery slope down loser-slide. And beer-slide! St. Louis (61-63): How did you win the World Series? You're not good. Cincinnati (57-70): Just focus on the glory of Griffey. Everything else miserable. Houston (57-71): Lee quote: "It's a lot nicer when we win games." Pittsburgh (55-71): At least they can have fun playing spoiler.
NL West You've become almost interesting enough for ESPN to mention more than once a month. Arizona (72-56): Honestly, you've surprised me this year. Good work. San Diego (68-58): My NL team still has division-winning spirit!. Watch out, 'Zona. Los Angeles (66-61): I'd take Boomer over Moose any day. Colorado (64-63): Wanted to mock this...but Yankees were there before too. San Francisco (56-72): Cool it with the celebrations already.Labels: other teams, rest o' the league round-up |
I see you have the Red Sox on your mind with the Rangers. I think you met Otsuaka. Funny stuff as usual.
