Uh wasn't he talking about A-Rod? Otherwise I missed the part about Lackey's wife cheating it up.
There's really nothing to say about Lackey and his private matters. I wouldn't wish divorce upon anybody. It doesn't make him any more or any less of a douche.

I really thought he'd become the Dodgers' closer this season. Maybe I only have to wait until next year in my dynasty league...Meier said:
I think everyone did, especially when Brox blew up. He had a couple awful outings in April which set him back and he was out for a few weeks a couple times. Guerra has done a great job so there really wasn't any reason to remove him from the role.CajoleJuice said:
It's too bad about Kuo.. when he was healthy the past few years, dude was just absolutely filthy. I can't imagine having Kuo, Jensen and Guerra to finish games every night.. wouldn't have even been fair.

His wife looks like Kristin CavalierriSanjuro Tsubaki said:Well that is the point I'm trying to make. There is no that part of the story.
Either way, if I looked like John Lackey I wouldn't care.
you forgot to point out that both the phillies and dodgers have similar offenses (with the dodgers having the best position player in the NL btw) and the dodgers having the better bullpen. (defense of course is harder to judge but they seem about equal) Anyway, your argument about being on the worse team is dumb, just like using wins to evaluate someone's performance.Meier said:

Lee's got a 5.45 ERA in Turner Field. He always sucks there for whatever reason.
It's time for us to feel better about the Cardinals playing the Astros with STATS!
-- Wandy Rodriguez is 3-0 with a 1.69 ERA in September with a 19:3 K:BB ratio.
-- Henry Sosa has allowed three or fewer runs in 5 of his last 6 starts
-- Brett Myers is 4-0 with a 1.41 ERA in his last 6 starts with a 31:6 K:BB ratio. The Astros are 5-0 in Myers' last 5 starts. Opponents only hitting .180 in that stretch.
-- The Cardinals only scored 6 runs during the entire Cubs series and were outscored 8-6. Two runs were gifts from Carlos Marmol, two more runs were scored on sacrifice plays by their pitchers, the other two were solo home runs (Molina and Furcal).
-- LaRussa has used Jason Motte the last two games, so he'd likely be shitty tonight if he used him again. Motte's pitched in 11 of the last 17 games.

ALSO! Jaime Garcia's career numbers against the Astros: 0-3, 5.91 ERA. Opponents hitting .341. This year, he's 0-2 with a 5.51 ERA. Opponents hitting .318.

I was saying the same thing to a friend last night. I want all three games played today. Fuck it.
Meier said:
Is some "saber worshiper" really going to pick a guy with inferior stats? Your anger at math has morphed into incoherent babbling.
The more likely scenario is a guy with superior stats on a shitty team going 16-9 and losing out to a guy with 21 wins but inferior stats.

I remember when Indians fans quit on Cliff Lee. That was disgraceful.
Kirk won a 'ship. He can't be the original LeBron.eznark said:
Oh I know what's more likely. I'm saying people who place absolute faith in Sabermetrics and think it's the end all/be all to baseball would probably say the inverse was true if their formulas supported it.eznark said:

Well yes, terrible lineups are generally composed of terrible players.

The Braves are trying to get into the playoffs. Although I have no idea why Constanza is on the bench.

Hey, a little off the current topic, but who does everyone think is going to win the Cy Young? Triple Crown?
My hopes are for Clayton Kershaw for the Cy Young and Matt Kemp for the Triple Crown.

Matt Kemp won't win the batting title, but he has a good shot at finishing first or tied for first in HRs and first in RBIs. Looks like Braun is back in the lead in OPS, and I don't see Kemp overtaking him.
I don't think I can comment on the Cy Young race from an unbiased perspective.

Debating whether to watch the Braves game. Likely to be pretty painful, so I'm not so sure if I want to torture myself.

Debating whether or not I should watch the Rays game tonight. But first I have to check if it's actually on TV.

Same, that said I would like my team to beat or tie the old best record, then again if they just do great in the playoffs, than I'm fine with that. It's funny how the best record in modern baseball belongs to the Seattle Mariners and they never even got to the World Series that year.The Outsider said:

No need to watch it on YES, all 3 games are thankfully on SUN. There's no college football to interrupt it.

Is anybody else surprised that the Yanks mite win 100 games? I'm amazed, team doesn't seem as good as other teams but this team just knows hot to win. Facing the likes of the Royals or Seattle helps though.
