I am enjoying Cliff Lee in shitsville.

 

[CygnusXS]

It was dumb, yeah, but who gives a fuck

At that point, I and everybody else at home just wanted the game to end.

Who, in the NL, is gonna take Roty from Harper?

This is what ESPN gives for Rookies: http://espn.go.com/mlb/stats/batting/_/position/rookie
Here is what MLB.com gives: http://mlb.mlb.com/stats/sortable_rookie.jsp?c_id=mlb

But honestly anything can happen from here until the end of the season. Bryce does seem to fit very well with Washington and I wouldn't be surprised if he gets NL RotY

 

[wsoxfan1214]

Sox are blowing my mind right now.

Also, the MLB should consider an emergency rule-change for relegation for the Cubs.

 

[rekameohs]

Wade Miley!

 

[RBH]

 

[Branduil]

LOL, thrown bat home run.

Yikes, rooks in the AL need to step up or they might give it to Darvish, which would be stupid.

 

[Sharp]

Kirk Nieuwenhuis.

Maybe if he were OPSing .900.

 

[darkside31337]

Lance Lynn

And Trout got that shit locked up in the AL.

Cespedes will be the guy once he's back from his injury.

 

[jakncoke]

Doug Slaten got a goofy face

Brah why are you an A's fan now?

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Off to the game, hoping a homer is hit my way!

 

[darkside31337]

Sean Rodriguez, SS
B.J. Upton, CF
Ben Zobrist, RF
Drew Sutton, 1B
Jose Lobaton, DH
Elliot Johnson, 3B
Will Rhymes, 2B
Jose Molina, C
Rich Thompson, LF

Makeshift lineup hoorah! Benching Scott and Pena for a day off today is conveniant since they cant hit lefties for shit anyway. Would be nice to have some of the injured guys back but doesnt look like anybody is coming back for a few weeks.

 

[RBH]

Brah why are you an A's fan now?

But they got a cool mascot doe.

 

[RBH]

A+ start for Tommy Hanson.

 

[The Outsider]

A+ start for Tommy Hanson.

Yep. Wonderful.

Eh, well crisis averted with Beltran.

 

[RBH]

Good job by Tommy getting out of that.

 

[The Outsider]

Good job by Tommy getting out of that.

Looks like he's trying to play this game every inning.

 

[RBH]

For fucks sake.

 

[Prade]

That whole play was just sickening... How does Johnson not score on that ball indefinitely? So I guess yet ANOTHER lefty will be in the lineup as Valdespin will be our back up to our back up to our back up...

 

[RBH]

*lights penis on fire*

 

[Square Triangle]

Wow, Boston/Umps vs. Tigers

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

The Tigers got completely jobbed, holy shit.

 

[CygnusXS]

So how bout those barves

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Lance Lynn.

He's been pitching a lot better I expected as a starter but I think he pitched too many innings last season to be eligible for RoY.

 

[Parch]

That's just horrible officiating in Boston. Then let's further punish the innocent team with ejections.

There's no reason that play couldn't be reversed with instant replay. Time to have a backup ump in a video booth that can correct that error, but Selig seems to think there is no reason to improve video replay.

 

[Enron]

Getting really sick of this shit.

Human element, bro.

 

[LJ11]

HAHAHA

Edit: No idea why Niese is still pitching, good job Terry.

 

[LJ11]

Great job Terry, way to manage.

 

[Link]

Yeah, saw that coming as soon as Niese was left in.

 

[The Frankman]

Just got home to see that walk and homer. Great.

HAHAHA

Have you considered a career as a harbinger of doom?

 

[Joey Fox]

Do I really want the Phillies to beat the Mets?

No, I don't think I really want that. Or do I? Probably won't matter either way.

 

[The Frankman]

Ronny Cedeno has a small strain in his leg, although he will not be placed on the disabled list – he could have played today.

Collins is hopeful Ruben Tejada returns by next weekend – he will do some running in Port St. Lucie tomorrow.

They may not call up Valdespin, but then again they need a backup for Cedeno.

 

[Prade]

This team.

 

[The Frankman]

SCOTT

HAIRSTON

POWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

2-run homer! 4-4 game!

 

[The Frankman]

Great. Rollins on and Polanco batting. You know a HnR is coming.


EDIT: errr ... why was Wright not on the base? It looked like he might've been out.

 

[Link]

Can we please score without letting the Phillies score the very next inning? Thanks.

 

[The Frankman]

Bad location on that fastball... high and up the middle.

Can we please score without letting the Phillies score the very next inning? Thanks.

Not like these Phils are the Pirates or Padres... Wiggy just roped a poorly located 99 MPH fastball.

EDIT: Hmmm, maybe he should've thrown that knuckle-curve 3-2 to Wigginton.

Damn these USO singers are fucking gorgeous. The girls, I mean

I'll take the blonde, please.

Cursed we must be

Davis has been lost at the plate all year, and he's playing today against a lefty? Did Collins have a stroke before this game?

 

[The Outsider]

I think it's time to buy a Barves shirt.

 

[The Frankman]

He was hitting better and he's 5-10 with a HR career-wise vs. Cole Hamels. You play matchups and this historically was a good one.

Seems Hamels made the adjustment.
