yup thats right!!!


Problem with Robinson he would of got little to no playing time in Left. Have him platoon with Gwynn and Rivera? Like to see him play everyday or almost everyday.

Giants activated Mark DeRosa and sent Brandon Belt back to the minors. Unbelievable.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWEEESSOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEE!

I CAME TO PLAY...
I came to play,
There's a price to pay,
Time for you to get down on your knees and pray,

I CAME TO PLAY...
Say goodbye to the good old days...
Their never coming back,
Watch Belt's future fade...

I CAME TO PLAY...
I came to play,
Had my dues paid...
I guess the fans wanted youth,
It can't be saved...

I CAME TO PLAY...
I'm here to stay,
Best get out of my way...

No Titantron link? For shame.

Unbelievable though how much Brandon Belt has been screwed around with. I suppose it's better for him to be in the minors then to just sit on the bench and watch Huff "play" baseball.

I actually was looking for a pic of DeRosa with like a trolling smile, never even thought of the Tron. :p

I really don't get what the Giants are doing either. Man that guy loves his vet players. Mets should've traded them Izzy and Hairston for Belt. Hairston's a vet's vet and Izzy is like 41. 41! You can't get more vet than that!

Aw wtf, for reals? Wanted to get some games in vs you this year. (NHL 12 future.)

Sabean is a retard when it comes to anything besides drafting pitchers. Actually, he probably doesn't lead the drafts.

I don't keep up too much with baseball but I had a quick question if someone can spare a moment to answer. It seems like the pieces are coming together for the Blue Jays in terms of offense/field and the only weakness left is their pitching bullpin.

Do they stand a chance to turn that around in 1-2 years to make a serious run at the Red Sox/Yankees or because they can't spend enough as those teams it's still just all luck/rookie development at this point?

Does this Weaver bitch pitch tomorrow or is he suspended yet?
Click to expand...

MLB.com reports that Jered Weaver will make his next start on Friday against the Mariners. He had been originally scheduled to start on Saturday, but Monday's day off allows the Angels to move Weaver up and still keep him on regular rest. He takes the start initially given to Dan Haren, who was also bumped up one day. Weaver is currently playing amid an appeal of a six-game suspension for intentionally throwing a pitch at Tigers C Alex Avila's head on Sunday in his most recent start.

Why do people keep saying this like there's any factual basis for it? Not coming to terms on an extension =/= the precursor to a trade demand. Especially when he says that he loves the team and their prospects for the future, the city and would love to stay for the remainder of his career.

Not acquiring Beltran was the tipping point. Now he'll request to be traded to the Mets.

geez only joking, jakncoke knows it and I thought you also did. Actually I've never seen people outside of me say that here, unless you mean in the media.

Lighten up, Francis. I'm not complaining, but it was night and day the last couple months. And seriously, Phillies fans (including myself) love Cliff Lee. When I say it should be interesting I actually mean that, it's not like Internet sarcasm interesting.

it says their playoff odds have gone down 2.1% in the last 7 days. So it was over 1%. Unless i am reading it wrong.

Nobody cares... fucking wildcard sucks all the fun out of the AL East pennant race.

Looking forward to a weekend of FOX and ESPN talking about A-Rod while he isn't even on the field
