Message #553 of 6634  *NEW* To :   All From :   Reedster   Subject :   Dodgers continue to surprise with Beltre 9th inning shot Date :   7/24/04, 1:30pm Absolutely unbelievable tear for the Blue Crew, and Beltre continues to make his claim for National League MVP honors (if you gave me 100-1 odds at the start of the season that I would be saying this after the All-Star break, I wouldn't have taken the bet).I would've said that the only player that they had who had good potential power was Shawn Green... and he probably has been one of the biggest disappointments this year on a very entertaining (and good) team. • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #553 • Back to Topics 3612 reads 1725 clickthrough(s) You cannot start a topic in the Headlines or Classifieds area... if you want to post a new message, try one of our other message areas!

Message #554 of 6634  *NEW* To :   Reedster From :   drrubb   Subject :   Re: Dodgers continue to surprise with Beltre 9th inning sho Date :   7/24/04, 1:52pm Adrian Beltre has been a MVP on my team as well this season. Along with Jim Thome, I would venture to say that Beltre was the biggest player who wasn't drafted in our BBM league. Both of these guys have lit it up! • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #554 • Back to Topics 4265 reads

Message #555 of 6634  *NEW* To :   Reedster From :   Jaydawg   Subject :   Re: Dodgers continue to surprise with Beltre 9th inning sho Date :   7/24/04, 7:01pm Before the season began, I took a lot of heat for my prediction of the Dodgers winning at least 85 games by the end of the season with a second place finish behind the D-Backs (gee, what happened to those guys?). Back in April, I felt that the Dodgers were better on paper than they were last year. Despite the loss of Kevin Brown, they still had some of the best pitching in the league with Eric "Game Over" Gagne closing out their games. They also had Shawn Green and Milton Bradley to carry their offense along with the speed of Dave Roberts on the basepaths. While I was thrilled when the Fox people sold the team, I was pissed off that the Blue Crew didn't acquire Aaron Boone to play third base, which meant another underachieving year for Adrian Beltre. Now, the Dodgers are in contention for the N.L. Pennant and Beltre could end up being the M.V.P.GIVE IT UP FOR THE AZUL!!!!!!!!!! • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #555 • Back to Topics 4264 reads
