Comeback players of the year....

[metsguy234]

Cliff Lee in the AL- Perfect choice, no question

Brad Lidge in the NL- Great year, but what the hell is he coming back from? He's always been great...

metsguy234,

Love the signature. When did you update that? On Sunday after the Mets choked again?

Wasn't a choke... it was a comeback that fell short...

You just proved that all Phillie fans are tremendous douchebags

Really? Funny thing is all Phillies fans feel that way about the Moots fans!

At least we can admit that we lost, after the Phillies get swept by the Brewers, you guys will be like... "OH NOES THE MEAN BREWERS TOOK THE SERIES AWAY FROM US! WWAAAAAH! WAHAHAHHHh! THOS BREWER FANS ARE SUCH MEANIES!!! WWAAAAAH!!! WAAAAAH!"

Uh, huh. Well, we can understand just missing the playoffs, we just don't whine like I have been hearing coming from your fans.

And when Obama loses, I am sure people will cry too.

When McCain loses, I know all of those Republicans will probably be so, so upset...

[phightinphils]

Okay, enough of us flaming one another. We agree to disagree.


Besides, arguing about baseball is more fun!

Yap, yap, yap. Let's get back on topic.

I agree with Met's fan, Lidge had a great year, but he was pretty good last year. So how does that qualify as a comeback player of the year? Because he was traded?

Year Team W L ERA G GS CG SHO SV SVO IP H R ER HR BB SO
2005 HOU 4 4 2.29 70 0 0 0 42 46 70.2 58 21 18 5 23 103
2006 HOU 1 5 5.28 78 0 0 0 32 38 75.0 69 47 44 10 36 104
2007 HOU 5 3 3.36 66 0 0 0 19 27 67.0 54 29 25 9 30 88


It'd actually be more justified for him to win the award last year... when he went from a 5.28 ERA to a 3.36 ERA...

[RedsoxRockies]

Yes, maybe last year, but not this year. In the AL, it is Cliff, and the NL, Jorge Cantu.

I'm gonna just throw this out there, I have been to shea stadium many times, and not the new phillies park, but the old one many times (can't remember the name) back when dykstra, kruk etc played. And the fans were absolutely terrible at both places. Rude, annoying, obnoxious. Just terrible examples of how baseball fans should act. So this little argument you two are having on here just goes to show how bad you can be. I don't know a single cards fan that would treat a cub fan this way, and vice versa, and we have an actual rivalry. Grow up and be better fans of the game

I've actually heard that most people consider Mets fans to be friendlier then Phillies fans to be friendly then Yankees fans

Um, if you noticed, I already addressed this. Enough already!
