The Cubs are the team to beat.

Read that sentence again. It seems strange to think about it, doesn’t it?

But seeing that they are the team to beat, don’t be surprise of someone beats them!

It is a don’t mention the Billy Goat episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

How To Fix The M’s For 2016: Seattle Mariners State Of The Union

Seattle was a lot of peoples pick to win the American League it seemed. A 76 - 86 season record ensued, causing the franchise to fire their GM and coach. Now with a tough AL West to contend with in the near future, we look on how the M's may go about their business this fall.

The Seattle Mariners made a lot of prognosticators look bad this year (including yours truly).  Of course the Washington Nationals also did as well. Yep..Guilty again.

It was a good thing I put some money on the Blue Jays to win the World Series in preseason, and then hedged against them in the ALCS with KC.  I was  also fortunate enough to go 9 – 4 with my prop bets as well, and did decent in picking the Mets over the Dodgers in Game 5 of the NLDS, then win over the Cubs, otherwise I would have taken a beating for the year.

Anyways, enough about me, how about the 76 – 86 Mariners?  This team dropped 11 wins from the 2014 campaign, and it looked ugly on them. Read the rest of this entry

New York Mets Payroll In 2016 + Contracts Going Forward

New York Mets

Chuck Booth (Owner/Lead Analyst):

So you are the New York Mets, and you have just lost the World Series, what is next?  First off, you have several Free Agents walking out the door that you may not be able to re-sign.  Most notably Yoenis Cespedes and Daniel Murphy.

Forget about the postseason in which the man was banged up, Cespedes was one of the biggest reasons you even made it to the playoffs to begin with.  The Mets should try to sign him.

Daniel Murphy carried you through two rounds of the postseason – but looked horrible in the field during the World Series.  So what is the prognosis on his status with the club?  Let him walk… His playoff numbers, coupled with a high need for second baseman in the Majors may well skyrocket his next deal.

At first glance though, this is not the end of the world for the Wilpon led New York franchise.  The entire Starting Staff could be composed of team controllable salaries.  Bartolo Colon is a Free Agent now too, but maybe he would sign a small guaranteed contract with incentives.

It is Back to the Future Day… and October 21, 2015 may have a much more negative meaning than it had in Back to the Future 2.

Plus I am hoping the LCS don’t wrap up too soon.

Great Scott! It the latest episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast!

The Blue Jays were not pretty but they may have saved the LCS from a disaster. The Cubs have a tough hill to climb.

Plus I can’t resist giving some thoughts to the new Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer.

The Force is with this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast!

I watch the end of Game 2 of the NLCS while matching my socks.

At the end of the game, I wonder if my need to see a great series should outweigh my desire to see the Mets win the pennant.

I try to find two of a kind on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast!

Matt Harvey came through big time for the Mets, erasing a lot of ill will.

David Price LOOKED like an ace until the Royals chip chip chipped away.

And all the while I bet Joe Buck wishes he was in New York and not Chicago.

It is almost late October on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast!

Playoff Betting Lines For Game #5 Mets @ Dodgers + ALCS/NLCS + World Series Odds

I have no problem with the Jays being the favorite out of the remaining clubs left in the postseason - however they should not be favored over every other teams by twice the odds.

The Toronto Blue Jays came back from 0 – 2 in the ALDS to beat Texas in the best of 5 series. Kansas City won their winner take all game with the Astros – so now we get to revisit my blog from last week coming to fruition.

I am talking about some precarious moves after the Canadian franchise clinched – costing them a chance for home field advantage.  This may be the difference in this forthcoming American League Championship Series. Read the rest of this entry
