Don't support the LLWS.
It is honestly disgusting watching 12 year olds throw 50 curveballs a game.
That game the other day with the kid literally falling off the mound wreathing in pain as his shoulder basically detached from his body was disgusting.

Must have seen his abysmal numbers ESPN posted against the Brewers.harSon said:

He has been on fire recently. So maybe he has figured something out.
If Brendan Ryan can put up a 3.0+ WAR over a 162 games, I'm sure Hech can do something similar.
He'll be better than the sinkhole named Aaron Hill anyway.
Edit: He is .317/.378/.488 over his last 41 AB.

Goldschmidt absolutely destroyed that. Like a mega bomb shot.
That was awesome. Melancon was doing his best Brad Lidge pitching to Pujols right there.
Dear god. Chris Young walk-off HR.
D-Backs WS confirmed.

Damn, the Astros...
Hard to imagine this team was in the World Series just six years ago.

The Yankees will just give him a blank check and tell him to write in whatever number he wants.
The astros are useless.
Anyway, I don't see the braves going after Reyes. With the way the roster is set now, the braves won't have much payroll flexibility unless they trade Lowe or Chipper retires. Plus Pastornicky should be ready sometime in 2012, i could even see him getting a September call up, he can't be any worse than Gonzalez. Considering our offense has under-performed this year and will be pretty much intact next year, i don't think they need to go out and get a bat like Reyes for 2012.

Doubt the Braves will go after Reyes. They will have about $13 million off the books in 2012 with Kawakami ($6.67MM) & McLouth ($6.5MM) being gone. However, almost half of that is going to be offset by salary increases to McCann ($6.5MM -> $8.5MM) & Uggla ($9MM -> $13MM). Also Tommy Hanson & Kris Medlen will be eligible for arbitration the first time, and you figure Hanson's salary is going to jump considerably.

Not even Tiger would sleep with the Indians.
They got a lot of ugly guys on that roster starting with Ubaldo and both Chris and Rafael Perez. At least they let Jhonny Peralta go to the Tigers. If they ever made a movie based on the Cabbage Patch kids, Peralta is a lock to get a role in it.
I remember the days Grady Sizemore was a hit with the ladies. Really sad how badly his career derailed. Guy was arguably the best player in all of baseball for about a 4 year stretch.

I saw this too, but I've never heard/seen anything to suggest it, and it seems like a really great way to cripple your career if you struggle a bit.Fenix said:
Aaaand as I type this, they started talking about that on the Getting Blanked podcast. I really don't understand why someone would want that in their contract.

Tom Gorzelanny isn't exactly a looker either.

Derek Jeter at 0.27 WPA or tied for 198th of all time is just awesome though.
