Was it Danny Ray Herrera?

Tiny Tim Collins.

My heart belongs to Victor Martinez!

<3

Attn Royals, do not blow another game late. God damn you.

<3

 

[The_Inquisitor]

Wow texas got treanor back from kansas.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Shit!

(Royals blowing the save, not losing Treanor). Treanor was a step up from stupid old Jason Kendall, but now we have Sal Perez, and he's the future.

EDIT: Oh man, and as I wrote that, Perez maybe got hurt.

 

[darkside31337]

Blue Jays just DFA'd Tallet.

 

[Fenix]

Hahah, that's 3 shitty relievers in a row DFA'd after one piss-poor outing.

 

[The_Inquisitor]

DFA?

 

[Doytch]

Looks like AA basically had to take on three shitty players in the Rasmus deal, didn't want to release them right the fuck away because it might look shifty to Rogers/mgmt, so he waited for the first opportunity to do it instead. Teahen is on notice.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

DFA?

Designated for assignment brah.

 

[McDougles]

Blue Jays just DFA'd Tallet.

Source?

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Rangers have acquired Mike Gonzalez from the Orioles and Matt Treanor from the Royals.

 

[Fenix]

Here you go.

 

[turnbuckle]

Whew

Go Twins!

Rangers have acquired Mike Gonzalez from the Orioles and Matt Treanor from the Royals.

Yep heard it on radio.

Just seems like the Tigers year. Not many injuries, winning lots of 1 run games down the stretch, easy September schedule.

He sucks. He's pitched better of late, but it's a contract year. Don't expect much.

I hope you're right.

Boesch might not get to effectively swing the bat the rest of the season and will need surgery.
Al Alburquerque is injury prone and has had multiple stints on the dl because he is also prone to get hit by batting practice balls.

Outside of that there's been little concern with injuries so long as you don't count the inevitable ones for Zumaya and Guillen.

It's a blessing when Inge and Maggs are injured.


Last year injuries really hurt us. That and the fact that our team was awful.
Our rotation has been healthy as have most of our regulars. What's put us over the top has been Avila and Peralta becoming All-Stars and VMart being a great singles hitter. Oh, and Verlander.

I'll say again - Thank god we didn't get Adam Dunn. If I didn't hate them so much I'd feel sorry for Sox fans. Hell, as bad as he's been this year I do feel sorry for them. We're quite fortunate they took so long to bring up Viciedo.

A Gone needs to be off that lineup. Put a double RF with Constanza

 

[Enron]

RIP Heyward

 

[Malo]

JESUS HAS RISEN: SEPT. 1ST.

We are not worthy!

 

[Windu]

Diaz is back? Awesome. Now go get infante and get rid of lugo. I haven't seen anything about him being claimed so I assume he cleared waivers. Also I'm getting tired of this heyward being on the bench thing.

 

[Corran Horn]

Giants DFA Tejada and Rowand.

Now step 2: Zito.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Now step 2: Zito.

Don't say that about Zito please brah.

 

[jakncoke]

Got rid of Bowker and Diaz. Nice.

9. John Lannan, SP

Should be an interesting night.

 

[Sharp]

It's awesome how Desmond gets more plate appearances than anyone else on the team. Really, really awesome.

ay dios mio.

 

[Corran Horn]

Got rid of Bowker and Diaz. Nice.

He has potential! I remember when he started the season...like 2-3 years ago.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

September call ups will see Bud Selig announce the return of the Expos, with the Brewers on the verge of winning the WS, he will rectify all the mistakes that he made that are hidden in his sunken cheeks. All New Era cap revenue will be used to fully pay for the construction of the Labatt concept stadium. Joe Maddon will mange the team. The rotation will be Zito, Webb, Kazmir, Harden and Moyer. Redemption starts here.

God I hate you Jason Bay. I would rather have Luis Castillo on this team rather than you.

I was going to say, let's not get crazy in here. But Bay makes it debatable, sigh. He truly sucks.

 

[JaskoX1]

I still hate ned yost.

what a dick.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Did u hear about the Front Office looking at Bay possibly playing CF. They love his clubhouse presence and positive attiitude. According to Daily News, they feel that a CF doesn't have to worry about hitting for power. I thought that was only if you were a great fielder. Bays nice at LF but CF is a whole different animal.

 

[Y2Kev]

Pretty amazing that bay has 7 hr. I thought he would have 2.

Uhhhh....

 

[sangreal]

Sac bunt in the 1st? Really? With our fastest runner on base?

 

[JaskoX1]

Don't say that about Zito please brah.

bandwagoner

 

[sangreal]

Giving up that free out on 1 pitch really paid off

 

[LJ11]

If Bay is such a nice guy, a team guy, he should do the org a favor and retire, it's in the team's best interest Jason! Think of the TEAM!

 

[darkside31337]

He's Canadian.

Seriously though he shouldn't give the Mets a penny of his money back or retire. Not his fault Omar was the biggest joke ever.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Just saw that Diaz is back, and he just got a hit. ha

Edit:

Does this end the Wes Helms minor league experiment?

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

LOLORIOLES

LOL JO JO

AARON WHO

 

[Doytch]

hahaha jo jo, i remember this dude.

 

[sangreal]

Hughes looking alright

He should retire and then get a job as a Clubhouse assitant or sum shit.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Uhhhh....

he plays a nice LF. He's rated third best LF according to one of the defensive metrics. He's not Carl Crawford out there, but he makes the plays.

 

[Sharp]

Fuck me, did Derek Lowe just homer?
