Avila's so so good.

 

[Dominican Power]

Tigers are beastly. A 100 wins this year?

The Brewers won 96 last year in a division with two other good teams. The Tigers will win 130.

 

[Doytch]

Ouch.

 

[tc farks]

Cubs now have 6 players hitting over .300 thx to Greinke

I love early season stats. Cubs never getting swept in a 4 game series by the Brewers streak continues! What a glorious day.

Is it bad if I think Holland's porno mustache is hilariously awesome?

When I see Holland's mustache, I think this is probably what he drives:

 

[cashman]

good outing for Koji

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Man, that fuck up by Broxton yesterday stings, but going .500 on a six game road trip vs a great team (the Angels) and a crappy team (the A's) isn't bad, I guess.

 

[eznark]

Lidge deserves that win.

#Cubs 7-for-10 today with RISP. They came into the game 7-for-50 in 6 previous games

LOL

 

[tc farks]

Is that not good?

 

[Lambtron]

Huh, the bats woke up, and suddenly the Twins are playing okay. Funny that!

 

[Redux]

Just like Holland, this guy seems legit.

 

[tc farks]

Cubs need to lock up Garza for at least 5 years.

 

[cashman]

Huh, the bats woke up, and suddenly the Twins are playing okay. Funny that!

take it with a grain of salt. you guys are playing the angels.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Although it sucks to lose on a wild pitch.... thems the breaks.

Congrats to the true NL East champs... the Washington Nationals.

 

[Square Triangle]

Wow Pujols actually hit the ball.

 

[Malo]

Jesus has a goatee now, what have you done to him Seattle!?

 

[Macattk15]

Well. Least we won a game in Arlington. That rarely happens.

Jesus has a goatee now, what have you done to him Seattle!?

The Mariners let their players grow facial hair.

Also he does nothing but hit fucking groundballs. His AVG = SLG. God damnit.

 

[Redux]

Anyone remember the Reggie Stocker?

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Well, just the Sox and Twins remain on Johnny Damon's ALCentraldex.

 

[Doytch]

Well, just the Sox and Twins remain on Johnny Damon's ALCentraldex.

Reminds me that the Braves need to trade Hinske to the Orilols [he'd fit, too!] so he can finish off his ALE belt.

 

[LiQuid!]

Holy shit Garza! Dem nerves! lol

WFAN producer Al Dukes talked to a Mets official this morning who told him the team intends to honor the retirement of Braves OF Chipper Jones, according to this report on WFAN.com.

“It was a conversation that went like this,” Dukes explained on air, “‘Will we acknowledge Chipper Jones’ career? Yes we will.’”

"Will we acknowledge Larry shitting on us for 15 years? Yes we will"

 

[FrenchToastDisciple]

pitching sucked today for the Twins, and we'll probably have a lot of days like that, but it was nice to see mauer and morneau beat the shit out of the opposition just like old times again and win a game by pure offensive brute strength

 

[Mrbob]

Someone gif Gammel not even covering first base on a throw in the Cubs/Brewers game, please!

 

[Windu]

"Will we acknowledge Larry shitting on us for 15 years? Yes we will"

They should retire his number.

 

[jman2050]

They should retire his number.

Name the stadium after him.

 

[Zep]

They should retire his number.

I hope Atlanta recognizes Howard and retires his number next to Hank.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Someone gif Gammel not even covering first base on a throw in the Cubs/Brewers game, please!

Someone please follow through with this. Mrbob needs something to furiously masturbate himself to sleep with when he goes to sleep every night in the NL Central cellar.

 

[Windu]

I hope Atlanta retires Howards number one day.

 

[Zep]

Shit, forgot about Bobby.

A video ceremony will have to do!

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Selig has to broker this deal soon. He can't allow the arrogant Giants to push him around. Do the genius Billy Beane a favor because his tyle of baseball eradicated the steroid era, something Allan H. could never do.

So god damn depressing.

 

[Windu]

Shit, forgot about Bobby.

A video ceremony will have to do!

Howard 1.008 OPS, 116 tOPS+ vs. the Braves.

Chipper 1.042 OPS, 123 tOPS+ vs. the Phillies.

Aha!

Spoiler

a video ceremony with highlights would be way too long anyway...

 

[Corran Horn]

God damn Wilson...make it exciting like previous years...

 

[clemenx]

Lmao, Utley is so underrated, it's hilarious.

Tweet from a Philly writer after a good Galvis play:

OK, Galvis is the Phillies' best defensive second baseman since ....

 

[Binx]

Huddy pitching in Rome tonight. Gave up 2 runs in 3 innings, but throwing strikes and getting lots of ground balls.

 

[cuevas. PhD.]

His velocity has been declining every year, I think. People were concerned last year too. At some point it's going to start affecting his results; maybe this is the year.

Shaaaaarp!

 

[Flunkie]

So nobody is talking about Brian Wilson? He came in today, juiced the bases, hurt what appeared to be his side, had a decline in velocity and his body language looked noticeably worse, walked in a run, then made the worthless Scutaro pop out to end it.

They say he "turned his ankle" and won't pitch Friday, but.. do you believe that?

 

[yankeehater]

Lmao, Utley is so underrated, it's hilarious.

Tweet from a Philly writer after a good Galvis play:

Have you seen Galvis play? He is an amazing defensive player, way better then Utley was.

 

[Sharp]

Shaaaaarp!

I was at opening day today, it was awesome.

 

[cuevas. PhD.]

I was at opening day today, it was awesome.

Haha I was at a game last year that ended on a wild pitch last year, only thing dumber is a bawk off.

 

[eznark]

Agreed. Fucking hilarious.

 

[Meier]

Thanks Brad Lidge for being a sonuvabitch.

 

[Sharp]

Thanks Brad Lidge for being a sonuvabitch.

I'm guessing he's on your fantasy team? Or is it Gio?

 

[Meier]

Bills pitching out of his mind and the Dodgers starting 5-1 is about as far from my expectation as possible. Offense still looks pretty bad on the whole.. can't believe we didn't make any real moves as far as that's concerned all off season.

I'm guessing he's on your fantasy team? Or is it Gio?

Gio. Lidge never sucks when I need him to (2008 against the Dodgers) but always when I don't want him to. Bastard..

 

[goldlion054]

The Brewers won 96 last year in a division with two other good teams. The Tigers will win 130.

mmmmmm

Thanks for being so bad AL Central

 

[CygnusXS]

Have you seen Galvis play? He is an amazing defensive player, way better then Utley was.

Way better? So Galvis must be the best defensive second basemen ever then. Unless you mean post-injury Utley I guess.

...

I'm trying to figure out which of the 10pm games to watch. I don't know, they're both so boring. Think I'm gonna go Dodgers/Pirates.

I posted about it just above...but ya he has dealt with injuries last year so he could have tweaked something again. It might be his ankle or he might be lying about some injury again...

I think people are remembering Utley's D as better then it acrtually was. He was really good before but not very good at all last year. Galvis has more range then Utley ever had, and especially last year.

Great win by the Phils tonight. The offense has looked so much better the last 2 games. Blanton looked great tonight, hopefully he can some how keep that up the rest of the year.
