Three Reasons Why You're Going to Win it ALL

[padresgm]

List the three reasons why you're going to win it all in the IYFBL this season.

I'll start:

1. My rotation. Enough said.

2. I won it all last year. History tends to repeat itself.

3. I play SF 19 times per season. Even if I account for Kelly getting lucky one time, that's still like a 17 game head start I have on the rest of you.

[Orioles]

The Orioles will win the IYFBL championship in 2009 because:

1. Their young stud line-up will mash its way to victories overcoming a middling rotation.

2B - Howie Kendrick
RF - Ryan Church *
1B - Joey Votto *
LF - Carlos Quentin
DH - Xavier Nady
3B - Chris Davis *
CF - Chris B. Young
SS - JJ Hardy
C - Taylor Teagarden

1. Max Scherzer
2. Sean Marshall *
3. Nick Blackburn
4. Aaron Laffey *
5a. Neftali Feliz
5b. Clayton Richard *


2. The IYFBL Orioles have to show the MLB Orioles how to run an organization and get back to winning.


3. The Orioles/Mariners 2009 ALCS will be the 1980 USA/Russia hockey game of the IYFBL. The Orioles/Padres World Series will be the anti-climatic USA/Finland gold medal game.
"Do you believe in miracles?!!!"

[Giants]

1. A certain thingyy MoFo south of me will relax way too early and regret it.

2. Old and aged? Half the dinosaurs I had last year bounced back and will SIM much better. And add the young'ns = NL West Champs!

3. Playoff ready now, and will make the adjustments along the way to win it all.

[Mets GM]

1. Best team in the league last season.

2. Would have won it all if not for a personal problem, which prevented me from participating 100% in the playoffs.

3. I'm smarter than all of you.

[TwinsGM]

1. Elvis is ready to rock!

2. Have you seen my OF? Crawford-Pence-Markakis

3. DiceK, Liriano, Garza, Gallardo, Slowey
