they will be favorites from day 1.

They were favorites in the NL last year too and we all know how that turned out

. "bAWT GUAIS, THEY HAVE HALLADAY AND OSWALT AND THEY HAVE SUCH A GOOD PITCHING STAFF AND A LOT OF BIG NAME HITTERS, THEY'RE DEF GONNA WIN THE WHOLE THIGN!" BTW aren't most of their pitchers getting pretty old? Lee is what 33? Halladay will be 34? Oswalt will be like 33? The only young pitcher they have I think is Hamels who is gonna be like 27.

Wouldn't mind seeing Sabean do something to give the Giants another improvement to keep up though.

From the ESPN MB:

"Are you kidding me Giants fans? You're a fluke. We are baseball, now. Period. Your lineup was a joke. This is the greatest team on paper of all time."

And so it begins...

Sorry Giants fans..congrats on the World Series, but I'd take the Phillies 9 times outta 10 if I had to pick coming into next year.

So was last year's Phillys

. Paper tigers I tell you. Not to mention we were the only team who lit up Lee in the post season anyway, and Timmy beat him twice IIRC.
