Theo's 2009 season recap

Check out my 2009 SEASON RECAP!!!

They did it! They did it!

                               They did it! The Twins have won the AL Central! After being 7 games back from Detroit a month ago, they managed to survive the rest of September and force a 1 game playoff deciding the AL Central. After 12 inning of 4-4 baseball the Tigers hung in strong, scoring runs but the Twins kept truckin' on. Carlos Gomez scored the winning run in the 12th inning. Congratulations!

Here it is!

Animoto is one of the coolest things I have ever seen! I love how you can attach tunes to the Animoto. Be expecting an Animoto before and after the postseason.

Voicethread is a pretty cool way to talk about things. You can just pick a picture and talk into the computer speaker. It almost feels like the picture is talking.........OOOOOO

Comments for the week of Sept. 4 - Sept. 13

Milestones. They are powerful things. In sports, a milestone is the one thing that players stride to achieve. There are many for many different teams, and through the baseball century there have been milestones for pitchers and hitters.

Recently, Ken Griffey Jr.'s 600th monster shot, Randy Johnson's 300th win............ and what you've been waiting for, DEREK JETER'S 2,722th HIT AS A YANKEE. It's been a long time since Lou Gerhig.

Remember what I said about Atlanta and the Wild Card last post, yeah scratch that. They have been doing not so good in the last 10 games. The Marlins are the ones who are stealing the show. Chris Coghlan is making a run for ROY. Other contenders for NL Rookie of the Year are the following: Tommy Hanson, Daniel Murphy, Pablo Sandoval, and Colby Rasmus.

Okay, I have to admit that the Yankees have about a 90% chance that they will win the division. But the Red Sox have hope for the playoffs. Texas is good, but not good enough. I sort of feel bad for them since they haven't made the postseason since 1999. Them came pretty close this year though. If they make the right offseason moves, they're gonna skyrocket in 2010.

But you can't forget they Angels. After Nick Adenhart's tragic passing in April, the Angels will always have an ispirational thought with them going into the playoffs. Their franchise will be scarred by his death forever. There is a memorial outside Angel Stadium. Hopefully I will be going to the All-Star Game next year and I will see the affectionate tributes that his loving friends, family, and fans left for him. And if they win the World Series, it will be Nick Adenhart with them spraying champagne.

THE HALF WEEK OF SEPT. 7 - SEPT. 14

BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!!
CARLOS PENA IS OUT FOR THE SEASON! THAT MEANS THERE IS NO WAY THE RAYS WILL MAKE THE PLAYOFFS!!!! EVERYONE REJOICE! EVEN YANKEE FANS!

1. How can I be creative in today’s world?
2. What part will the Internet play in helping me to be creative?
3. If I can post my art, video, or writing work on the Internet for the world to see, will this make me work differently than if only my teacher was going to see it?

1. I can be creative by making up comments and names for MLB happenings and joking around about players.
2. It can spread around news about my blog and give me more information.
3. It might make me work differently if I spend a lot of time on my blog. Besides, I going to spread it so not only one person sees.

MLB COMMENTS FROM THE WEEK OF August 31- September 6
This week there were many impact in races. Mark Reynolds 40 homers, Wainwright 17 wins, and A-Rod's 2,500th hit. Things are shaping up to be a mighty tight September.

NL
Nothing gets more entertaining than the NL in September.
PLAYOFF PUSHERS: Phillies, Dodgers, Cardinals, Rockies, Giants, and the Braves.
The Cards and the Phills are lookin' real good. While in the NL West things are heating up. The Dodgers, Rocks, and Giants are all in a tight jet-stream in the NL West. The Rocks still have a one game lead over the Giants in the Wild Card, but don't forget about Atlanta! They're only 2-4 games back! I wouldn't be surprised if they catch on and steal this thing. 

      After Albert Pujol's 40th homer, bombs started to set off. Pena is BLAZING hot. At his pace he'll have 45+ home runs. Reynolds is slowly making a statement with 40+ big ones. Don't exclude Fielder though. With 37 bombs already.

AL

Dramatic, tight, and at sometimes, shocking. The AL in Sept. is going to be wild.

PLAYOFF PUSHERS: Angels, Tigers, Yankees, Red Sox, Rangers, and the Rays.

The Tigers are obviously going to win the AL Central. Why? BECAUSE THE AL CENTRAL IS DONE!!!!!!! The Tigers are the ONLY ones above .500 in that division! The Yanks and the Angels are roll. So that must mean that the teams to watch for are The Sox, Rangers, and Tampa. 

     The pitchers right now are stealing the show in the AL. 7 pitchers have 14 wins or more! That should be a record. Sometimes the MLB people are dumb and don't keep track. 

Sorry, back to pitchers.

I believe the following are Cy Young candidate pitchers:

NL Wainwright, Carpenter, Lincecum, and Johnson (Josh)

AL Sabathia, Verlander, Feldman, Grienke, and Beckett

     WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER 9/11/01, AND THE SORROW AROUND ALL OF BASEBALL. INCLUDING THE COLLAPSE OF THE NEW YORK YANKEES IN GAME 7 OF THE WORLD SERIES

      Well that's all for this week. See you guys on the 11th. Remember the ones who we lost, and red hats! YAY!
