What a season to be a baseball fan! The Giants are on a nine game winning streak, powered by some excellent trades, the NL West race has three teams within one game of the lead! Barry Bonds is make a serious run at the single-season homerun record, and my other team, the Cubbies, are also doing well.

In That Other League, The Mariners are making it look easy. After all the head-scratching trades they made over the last few years, it is interesting to see them on top. By a mile. I mean, seriously.. a 20 game lead?

My predictions? Giants-Cubs in the NLCS. Giants take it in five. Yankees-Mariners in the ALCS. Mariners sweep the Yanks. Giants take the World Series in six games.

But we are Pure of Heart, Stout of Frame, and have the Big Cat now.

If it gets to that point, we'll talk money.
