WOW. I did not see a sweep coming, at least from Boston especially given Prichett's injury.

Great season Gen, congrats. I am glad you had the patience with your core to finally reach the promise land.

As for the Pirates, that lineup is flat out scary and I don't think this will be the last time the Pirates are asked to the ball (much to Zito's delight, he loves to dress up.)

God damn General? Mercy!!!!!!!!!

I like my team when i get a bullpen and one more bat. I have the 2nd youngest team in the NL. Zito has the 3rd.

[missionhockey21]

Colorado is younger by .07 years than the Pirates. Zito has done everything to get younger than the Rockies, thus why Chris Weight still has a job at 23.

[Porter]

Yeah but I would be much younger if i didnt have Morabito and Ornelas.

Grats General. Wow.

[OrioleMagic]

Congratulations! That McCarthy trade is still haunting me! (Of course if I would have kept him, he never would have boosted!)

[Kingdom]

I just got Buster Douglassed.
