I try not to post about stuff I dont know about.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Eastern Division is clearly a race between the Mets and Braves..</div>kingjamez, also one of the more underrated rivalries in all of baseball. The two teams always hate each other dating back to to the jon rocker days. I'll never forget that 1999 NLCS between the Mets and the Braves. Robin Ventura hitting a grand slam in the bottom of the 15th inning. The Braves ended up winning the series but man those were some GREAT baseball games.
Tim Lincecum. His 2 seamer goes 94-97 consistently with a nasty 80-85 curve ball. 1-1 this year, but he had a game last week against the Astros and went 7 innings, 1 walk, 1 hit, 1 unearned run, 10 K's.
That guy is a monster.. He's a real small guy, but I love the way he pitches. His pitches are sick, and his fastball is untouchable..
hideki okajima...he's allowed 2 runs all year in like 20+ appearances. one on his first career pitch, and one on a dirty play by a-rod where they would have turned a DP an nothing woul dhave scored had it not been for him.best setup man in baseball.

I do however find it too early in the season to say that Okajima is the best setup man in baseball. He's been the best, but I don't believe he is the best.
