Once again the forces of goodness and niceness triumph over > the forces of nastiness and rotteness! The words above are uncalled for, but to the fans of Toronto, I render my heartiest congratulations. You showed great class in spite of the hostile treatment your team received when in New York. Good luck for the remainder of post season play. It was a real pleasure battling a classy opponent and I hope we can do it again next year (with a different result I hope!). I toast the MVP TEAM: TORONTO. Final Season Comments: AL MVP - Should still go to Mattingly although the Bells and Barfields do deserve votes. AL Cy Young - Guidry might win it but I honestly think Saberhagen deserves it. The Toronto staff deserves a good chunk of it. I can't make an intelligent choice for NL MVP but Dr. K was the best pitcher I've seen in years. He deserves the nod for the Cy Young. KC vs. Toronto - I think the KC experience will squeak by the superior team. StL vs. LA - The balanced hitting, pitching, and superior team speed of the Cards should squelch the Dodgers. StL vs. KC - I'm an AL fan all the way but I went with the Cards in '82. It looks like a repeat to me in this battle of the Show-Me State. (Don't you think that's a better name than the I-70 Series.) I hope I'm completely wrong and the Blue Jays win it all! GO JAYS! \ / |\\ / | | \| | | |\ | | | \| John B. Lo Coco (...whuts!ogre) (...szuxn!ogre) 1-201-467-7436
