    1. If your team is in contention, what do they have to do in order to make the postseason?---Well we need to sweep the Rays LOL, nooo offense. But we're back by 6.5 games from the Rangers. WE need a hot streak sorry it had to be the Rays. I cheer for them when they dont play the A's. But they have been very helpful for us. Swept the rangers for us and now let us sweep them? :P

    2. Does your team do better at home or on the road?-Home. I dont know any MLB team that plays better on the road.. I do know the Rays have one of the better road records.

    3. How many collectibles do you own of your teams?-None to be honest. I am bad.

    4. What's your favorite month of the year to watch baseball(besides all of the months)-Probably August. Its summer. Its near postseason contention time. And esepcially when i was still in high school and I would watch teh game before the first day fo school and be all excited and superstitious and stuff. Alot of memories there.

    5. What was your favorite no hitter/perfect game this season?---Haha Dallas Braden. Sorry the Rays are just getting a pounding in this survey by me.

    6.What's your biggest pet peeve while watching your favorite team play?-Whenever we have a runnner at 3rd and less than 2 outs. I cant stand it when they cant even get a run home on an out.

    7. Do you go to your team's postgame concerts(if they have any)-No concerts, sometimes we have firework shows. Actually i remember last year we did have like Jordan Sparks after the game i think.

    8. What player on your team is most likely to curse on national televison?--Hmm..Daric Barton or CoCo Crisp. Especially Barton, i have seen him curse during games before.

    9. Who's the best team in baseball as of right now?-I persoanlly think the Padres are. They are tough as nails and each time i check the box scores they always seem to win and not even blowouts but those close games like 5-3, 4-2.

    10. Who's the best centerfielder in baseball as of right now?---Hmm defensively..ill go with Crisp if u wanan track a ball down and maybe Mark Kotsay for accurate throws.

    11. Who's the best third baseman in baseball as of right now?---defensively..ill go with Adrian Beltre. alot of ppl dismiss his defense, but he is as solid as a rock at the hot corner. offensively...i wont say DAvid Wright even tho he and Longoria have simlar stats, but ill pick Longoria because I feel he is more solid and more consistent and has the higher OBP and Slugging and better at stealing bases(at least this year)

    12. Who's your favorite manager(besides your teams's manager)-I love Mike Schoschia's managerial mind. He always does the right mvoes that I wish Bob Geren did. Joe Maddon is maybe my second. I heard he rode his bike a lot. LOL

  • 1. If your team is in contention, what do they have to do in order to make the postseason?= Continue to play well.

    2. Does your team do better at home or on the road?= At home

    Yankees

    1. Best record in the majors right now, they'll definitely make the playoffs, AL East 1st place and AL Wild Card will be between Yankees and Rays. Just need to not completely melt down.

    2. Home 41-22 (compared to road 35-25).

    3. A lot, too lazy to count.

    4. October and the postseason. If you meant only in the regular season, then the pennant races in September.

    5. Roy Halladay's perfect game.

    6. Whenever either Joba Chamberlain or AJ Burnett pitches, they both suck are too inconsistent

    7. Yes.

    8. Either AJ Burnett or A-Rod.

    9. Yankees. Best record in the majors. See #1.

    10. Not sure. I know it's not Granderson on the Yankees, but not sure who is the best CF.

    11. Evan Longoria.

    12. Ron Gardenhire of the Twins.

    EDIT: For #12: I forgot about Ozzie Guillen of the White Sox. He's kinda funny, especially after seeing a few episodes of "The Club" on MLB Network.

    1. Get Nelson Cruz and Vlad Gurrerro hitting a little better. And Cliff Lee throwing better.

    2. Home

    3. I can't count that high!

    4. September - October, it starts getting a little more interesting.

    5. Matt Garza's, he is a good young pitcher that now will probably go to the Hall Of Fame.

    6. Getting runners in scoring position and not knocking em' in.

    7. They do some times, but I would rather beat the traffic than watch some band I have never heard of.

    8. Josh Hamilton or Vlad Gurrerro.

    9. The Rays, they came back ahead of the Yanks.

    10. Josh Hamilton. Enough Said.

    11. A-Rod

    12. Buck Showalter.

    1. Of course! 2. Derek Jeter, he's a great player and a true leader, as well as a role model for people of all ages to look up to. 3. Yankees. 4. Red Sox. 5. Yeah, the 3 man rotation probably wouldn't have worked 2 years in a row! 6. CC, Burnett, Pettite, Vazquez, Chamberlain/Hughes. 7. No, I'm not into that kind of thing. 8. Mariners! 9. Angels. 10. Not yet.

  • 1 decade ago

    1. Well, lets see.... The Cubs need a better bullpen, better offense, better defense, a better GM, a better manager.....

    2. HOME!

    3. I have a Fukudome shirt, Soriano jersey and a Cubs hat.

    4. I watch year round but I like the intense playoff race in September.

    5. Matt Garza's no-hitter. I actually got to see some of it..

    6. Not scoring RUNS!

    7. No.

    8. LOL! I will say CARLOS ZAMBRANO!

    9. Not the Cubs.

    10. Huh? Well I like Marlon Byrd but the best is probably Chris Young or Josh Hamilton.

    11. Even though Aramis is doing better, it is probably Adrian Beltre.

    12. Bud Black.

  • 1 decade ago

    1. The Atlanta Braves need to score more runs and they need to hit with RISP.

    2. Best home record in the Majors =)

    3. 1 or 2

    4. If my team makes the playoffs, then October.

    5. Armando Galarraga should have had one so I'll say his.

    6. When we don't score runs that we should score, like stranding a leadoff double or not getting a runner from third wit less than two outs.

    7. I would but I always miss those.

    8. None

    9. Tampa Bay Rays

    10. Josh Hamilton

    11. Alex Rodriguez

    12. Tony LaRussa

    1. Work on their offense against pitchers they aren't familiar with.

    2. Home. We have the best home record in the AL and second best in the majors behind the Braves.

    3. Too many to count (:

    4. I guess April.

    5. Dallas Braden. Because I couldn't stop thinking about the "stay off my mound" moment.

    6. The way their offense shuts down.

    7. No, but I watch the postgame if that counts.

    8. Ohhh, Jorge, A-Rod, or maybe even Mark if he's having one of those days.

    9. Yankees. Forgive me for being biased.

    10. Josh Hamilton no doubt.

    11. Adrian Beltre or Evan Longoria.

    12. Joe Torre because I will always respect him for his 12 years with the Yankees.

    Yankees------------------

    1. Red Sox are SORTA-kinda-not really in contention. If we want to make the playoffs we need as much help from our backups because of all the injuries. But they have done so much already... I just don't know if the Sox can do much more.

    2. Home

    3. Hmm. So... Dustin Pedroia jersey, Jason Bay (Red Sox) shirt, Red Sox jersey (not a player one), Ellsbury shirt, Buchholz shirt, some Red Sox baseballs, a Red Sox bat, like a ton of these little 10x10 posters, some cards, a sweatshirt... might be some more...

    4. I love October baseball if the Sox are in it, if not then I'd say July.

    5. Dallas Braden's. I thought it was so sweet that it was on Mothers' Day, with his grandma there and his mom having died years ago.

    6. When Beltre swings and falls on one knee. It worked like ONCE. It just ticks me off.

    7.If the Red Sox have any, I'm sorta not at Fenway for them...

    8.Beckett... especially if he's angry :P

    9.Yankees, sigh. Hate to admit it, but I'm gonna be honest right now.

    10.Josh Hamilton was pretty amazing when the Sox played Texas. But he doesn't play center all the time... does he count? If not, then I'd go with Shane Victorino.

    11. offensively: probably Beltre, overall: Evan Longoria

    12. I like Twins' Gardenhire.

  • 1 decade ago

    1. Win

    2. Home

    3. A lot of SI covers, a Derek Jeter bobblehead, like eight hats, and a Mantle jersey

    4. October

    5. Dallas Braden. Mother's Day, with his mom no longer with us, and the fact he is not a very feared pitcher, it was really special.

    6. When they lose. Or when AJ Burnett pitches. Usually those happen at the same time.

    7. No i live eight hours away from my home team's stadium.

    8. Jeez uh.....probably AJ because he would be pissed that he sucks.

    9. My team. Go Yankees! Boston has been good too.

    10. Josh Hamilton

    11. Evan Longoria

    12. Joe Torre. I actually like him MORE than Girardi.
