Sweet! We just dropped two games to the second worst team in the league.

Keep telling us we need to be patient. It's only been almost three decades. Just takes time, right?

Shields can't catch a break.

 

[Askani]

Shields can't catch a break.

“@jazayerli: And 3-7 overall. RT @mellinger: #Royals now 1-6 when James Shields gives up two or fewer (earned) runs; 2-1 when he gives up three or more.”

We're just wasting a year of his baseball life.

 

[bozeman]

Friars sure are swinging at a lot of first pitches tonight. May be bailing out the Cards rook making his ML debut.

 

[Dominican Power]

They sent down Rutledge. lol

Cabrera with five HRs in three games. Your move Fielder.

Lyons pitching really well so far. Granted, it's the Padres. I don't think Gast has made it out of the 6th yet in his 2 starts so Lyons is already ahead there.

Dodgers throwing 3 straight leftys at the Cards starting Friday. Could be trouble...

Shouldn't you be more upset with Verlander?

 

[ToxicAdam]

Game On!

Game Over!

I THOUGHT WE WERE FRIENDS

I'm disappointed, yes, but this is his worst three game period since 2008. Can't really hate the guy, just hoping he didn't go "Zito" since that contract.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

We are! Didn't you see the winky face? xD

You guys are still my fav in the West. Rematch of that 95 ALCS!

Ike Vegas + scout's take on him

Valverde fucking poses with one knee on a called strike. Die Jose.

 

[bozeman]

Yadi with a 4 hit game.

Grinding it out is not gonna make him lay off the high heat and the junk outside the strike zone.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

J.VERLANDER(DET) W (5-4) - 5.0 IP, 10 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 1 BB, 9 SO, 1 HR, 110 PT-75 K

That's a deserved win if I've ever seen one.

 

[bozeman]

Another Cardinals rookie pitcher with his first Major League win!

 

[Square Triangle]

That's a deserved win if I've ever seen one.

I just hope he isn't hurt and not saying anything. I know a blister keeps coming back. I would have no problem putting him on the DL and letting Smyly start.

 

[Etheus]

The Mariners are a disaster. and that's all I have to say about that.

More Mariners pessimism. : )

 

[Link]

Does anyone else think it's a stupid rule that a ball that bounces off a player's glove and over the wall counts as a homerun? Should be a ground-rule double, in my opinion.

Yo Link/dmncby2k9 you need to read this

There's a reason they don't have player/managers anymore. He's probably a really nice guy and great teammate, but he needs to go.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

I'm also hearing that Lyons is a switch-hitting pitcher?!

 

[RumblingRosco]

I'm also hearing that Lyons is a switch-hitting pitcher?!

Really? So is he actually a decent hitter or just some weirdo? Seems like a good pitcher, not great, but solid.

Also, whoa, the NL Central is on fire this year. Excluding/ignoring the untouchables at the bottom.

 

[eznark]

A day off! Thank god.

Fire everyone.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Theres the optimism!

Not even the local news follows the Astros I see.

 

[vas_a_morir]

When do you guys start playing good teams?

I don't know. We've mostly been playing NL East teams.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Mariners Gaf when Hultzen gonna get the call up?

Not anytime soon, he's on the DL and he's still not ready

We're actually if a pretty tough spot in terms of starting pitching since 3/5 of our rotation is shit but can't really be replaced lol

 

[darkside31337]

So Jose Campos really is going to be the best player in that deal after all.

Thanks for the info. I have him stash on one of my minor league spots in my keeper league. I still regretting trading Matt Harvey last year for Papelbon and Bourn but I needed some help immediately. Harvey at time was first year of minors.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Damn at Montero going down. I want the Mariners to be competitive.
And they are calling up Jesus Sucre to replace him. He Is Risen.

 

[harSon]

Prepare for a million stolen bases x_x

Edit: Cutch has been money as of late

 

[jello44]

Sweet! We just dropped two games to the second worst team in the league.

Just too perfect.

Also, the second worst now? YAY! Astros movin' on up!

Wooooo winning a series. Feels good man.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

 

[harSon]

Niceeeeeeeeeeeee

Pineda is throwing mid 90s. Hype.

 

[Macattk15]

Good. Fuck off Montero.

Go forget catching altogether and learn how to hit again or something you POS.

Pineda is throwing mid 90s. Hype.

He had an elbow problem in the M's minor league system .... then his shoulder blew up .... yeah I don't see him being too healthy over a long stretch of time.

 

[see5harp]

Is Shane Victorino even watching the game? He appears to be just sitting there starting at the ground.

 

[Malo]

Probably not, but at least he's making good progress from shoulder surgery and is going to start making rehab starts in the minors within a week.

He's also gotten some strong reviews from the Yankees brass. I know I shouldn't expect anything but I'm starting to hype myself up a little bit.

 

[Opiate]

I just want to express my admiration for the Texas Rangers system. Jon Daniels shows great restraint and really seems to know what he's doing.

Has Dallas responded? That is, is Dallas more of a baseball town than it used to be? I know Texas generally is dominated by Football. Has the Ranger's persistent success had any influence on the ethos of the area?

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Yeah everything changed here when Josh Hamilton won the home run derby.

 

[Windu]

Does anyone else think it's a stupid rule that a ball that bounces off a player's glove and over the wall counts as a homerun? Should be a ground-rule double, in my opinion.

how could it be a ground rule double if it never touches the ground? although the term ground rule probably has nothing to do with the ball hitting the ground.
