Absolutely not. Yes 44 runs in eight games in September averaging three per game that's an eighteenth place of the 162. Game season. But he's hit in which at times the Angels that had nine guys all -- regulars batting 300 or above. Offense is the least of this teams problems there really will position from an offensive standpoint. What I worry about is even the rotation at this point with the addition of Kazmir. Still that bullpen blow that bullpen could be the fatal problem in October right Clinton has been up and down -- not about the Mets and Phillies naturally east battle you'd think Philadelphia has the best lineup may be in all of baseball. They -- guys have hit thirty home runs already. They do -- right now I would lean towards saint -- editions of the Rosa Holliday and even Julio Lugo has gotten off for the Cardinals. The Phillies went the body is is right. Are now standing offensive club and he hasn't been the -- in about June or so that groin problem. Come back a little bit lately looks better but they still ever reason Atlanta has Phillips believes an outline and they don't go one to eight quite is deep she would like. -- Pistol like an awful lot -- crippling of that let's stick with the Cardinals will take on the race on fox double -- undeniably going to be the MVP. What do you Chris Carpenter and Adam -- right in the Cy Young conversation very prominently. Both these guys are really had -- standing seasons. They are right there with Lincecum. -- right now it's probably Lincecum versus Wainwright and that's coming from a guy who loves Chris Carpenter. The problem with corporate his candidacy is that he's about 35 innings short of where Lincecum and Wainwright are. That's a lot of it that's a lot of difference between these candidates. -- of down the Lincecum versus Wainwright. Let's -- has the strikeout does not have the win total Barack Bryant one thing we've learned in the last few years should -- known all along. Is that win totals are largely. Reflective of run support and bullpen support. I'm still Lincecum guy but this will -- right down to the very end. If Lincecum is hurt as he has been the last few days or if he does not pitch effectively. Wainwright could sneak -- and him one last -- some voters like yourself could hold against them. Just should things out what should people got excited and -- some great the yield. Be sure to catch the MLB I'll box starting at 4 PM eastern you can he cannot Bryan Webber will act."
