2006 MLB Prediction Thread - Pick The Winners

[Mad-Lad]

if anyone thinks Houston's going to be out of the top 3 in the division, you're smoking crack.

i dunno, they lost Clemens, and didn't add much in the way of offense.

clemens will probably be back after the all star break.  Other than that:

- Oswalt
- Pettitte
- Backe
- Lidge

Berkman will be around the entire season.

The Cubs have Wood & Prior who are constantly on the DL.  Their #1 & #2 pitchers right now are Carlos Zambrano and Glendon Rusch.

The Cards are going to be real good, Milwaukee may be a pest.

The Astros will be #1 or #2 in the division at the end of the season.

If I may ask a polite question, PhiilyPhreak54, what wine goes with armadillo?

Not to be snide, but I have been accused of being a refined, cultured, supposedly Oxford man at 700level.com, and now I can't even reach the site, either on Yahoo, or Google.

Ah, well.  Big ups to Mullica Hill, New Jersey.
