Chad Gaudin's wife is smokin'.

Is Freeman's defensive prowess normally that horrific? Poor Hudson.

Freeman has excellent hands and an excellent arm, but zero range. Probably Average defender at best.

Young apologized to Hudson, who told Young to keep his head up and keep playing the game the hard way.

"You never want to injure anybody," Young said. "You always want to put your best foot forward. It's just one of those things that happens, and I just hope he has a speedy recovery, getting back out there doing what he does."

lol

JAIR JURRJENS IS COMING HOME, TIGERS FANS!

Tigers sign Jurrjens to minor league deal

On October 29, 2007, The Tigers traded Jurrjens with Gorkys Hernandez to the Braves in exchange for Edgar Renteria.

Christ man, I almost had a heart attack when I started reading this post.

Woo Hoo, Just got a MLB.TV subscription. Who else has one of these?

Thing is pretty cool. Cubs and Diamondbacks 6-6 bottom of the 11th now.

I'd get it myself but the blackouts for local games ruins it for me.

It is pretty great (when it's working) (and when you're not blacked out).

Yeah but aren't those on your local tv?

Also video has stuttered a little here and there. Is there any way to decrease Video Quality on the PS3 app so this doesn't happen?

Not always.

*cough*fox sucks*cough*

 

[Dominican Power]

What an awful at bat by Starlin Castro. WTF was that

 

[Lee Chaolan]

I was shocked to learn that Kazmir has a sub 2.00 ERA in his last 7 starts.

Also, amazed that he is still only 29. It feels like he should be 35.

Another shocking fact (well maybe not shocking) is today's win against the M's is Kazmir's first road win of the season.

Damn.

Not always.

*cough*fox sucks*cough*

Boo

Yeah but if I'm paying for the damn thing I'd like to get those games too. =P

I'll probably get it anyway.

I hear ya. I didn't get it going until after the Indians game today. I liked how you can see the away and home team's telecasts. (Radio too) Away telecast would probably be blacked out too I imagine for home team.

It's pretty good though, I'm trying to get more into the game of baseball other than just my Tribe.

 

[rekameohs]

Well that certainly was something.

 

[KidA Seven]

Good shit Cusb. We needed this with the Reds series coming up.

I'd recommend the A's, the Pirates, and the Rays as good teams to follow in the background. The Reds too I guess. And the Mets on Harvey Days (like this Friday!).

 

[cashman]

Personally I'd choose the Rays if I had to follow a background team.

 

[Dominican Power]

Cardinals.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Ha, that's funny, I love the Rays blue jerseys. Also love that part of Florida, so Rays actually fit.

Need a couple NL teams now. Hate Pittsburgh because of the Steelers. Although I don't mind the Pens. This is Pirates first good season in what, like 20 years?

Reds are okay I guess, Hard to like them with Bengals being rivals in football. What are some other fun NL teams?

 

[CygnusXS]

That depends. Do you consider tragedies to be fun?

The NL kinda sucks unless you think pitchers attempting to hit is real baseball or something. Just cycle between Harvey, Strasburg, Gerrit Cole, Jose Fernandez, and Julio Teheran starts.

As a Cleveland sports fan, we know this all too well. So, yes, I suppose. xD

Wow, I almost forgot Pitchers have to bat in the NL! How are these guys not considered guaranteed outs? Suppose I'll have to watch some NL games and figure this out.

Oh, also Kudos to your team for keeping the name "Texas" Rangers. They didn't go all wussy like Florida Marlins becoming Miami. yuck. or even the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. lol.

Fixed.

Greinke, at this writing, is batting .406. No other pitcher in baseball is batting at least .400. No other pitcher in baseball is batting at least .300. No other pitcher in baseball has a wRC+ in the triple digits.

Your opinion is wrong.

Nothing better in baseball than watching a pitcher get a big hit.

Dont forget the fucking 1pm to 7 pm blackout of like every fucking body on Saturdays. Fucking Fox

Fightin' words. How can anyone not love watching a pitcher get a big hit, a steal, or a great bunt?

Last night, Jake Westbrook got a steal. This turned into a 2-out run after the next batter knocked him in.

His prior outing, he went 3-for-3.

Pitchers batting is considerably more fun than watching tired, dusty, has-beens coming out to swing, only to go sit their ass on the bench for another 2+ innings. A pitcher getting an RBI is like the Yankees making a smart financial decision, or the Cubs not blowing it in the 9th. It doesn't happen often, but when it does, God damn is it exciting.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Whatevs, I love watxhing Rick Akiel try to hit.

Some pitchers can hit. Was more true back in the old days, but still a few folks can do it now.

Also, sometimes flukes can happen. Mike Minor actually hit a HR this year, and he's one of the worst hitting pitchers out there.

The big thing pitchers hitting does is that it makes your bench more important, as you have to use pinch-hitters at the end of games, and you can't rest starters as the DH.

Nice to see that batting average bring him up to a solid .208! Quite the slugger you've got there St.Louis!

The big thing pitchers hitting does is that it forces managers to make terrible decisions like take out a pitcher who's been dominating so they can bring in an actual hitter.

 

[Talon]

It's ridiculous that Allen Craig is hitting .485 with RISP on 97 AB.

 

[CygnusXS]

That was a very Mets play.

Calculated risk.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Kris Medlen, Mike Minor, and Tim Hudson all have hit home runs this year.

 

[Talon]

That was a very Mets play.

E Gattis struck out swinging, E Gattis safe at first on wild pitch by Z Wheeler, R Johnson scored, F Freeman to third on throwing error by catcher J Buck.

 

[McNei1y]

OMG NATS!

FINALLY!

After the Nats finally catch a break on that bunt play, Zimmerman drives in a run! It's happening!

 

[harSon]

I guess Burnett is going to be our James McDonald this season x_x

 

[CygnusXS]

All five of the Mets hits have been bloopers. Sucks for Alex.

 

[Dominican Power]

MESTS

 

[Dominican Power]

Mets should trade for Uggla.
