Melky just hit a grand slam and Carrasco was so frustrated he tried to take off Billy Butler's head afterwards, which cleared the benches and got him ejected.

Billy's been on fire of late. At least, from a driving the ball perspective.

I'm glad Francis is gonna get a win. Guy needs it; It must be tough to put up a pretty solid-ish ERA and be 3-11 on the season.

edit: holy shit, Hafner has a .312 average? That guy is as predictable as the weather.

DevelopmentArrested · Jul 30, 2011

That is a pretty damn steep price for Pence

F'real. Got himself a walk though earlier in the game.

He could not get a hit the rest of the year and itd still be an amazing trade for da Jays

Fenix · Jul 30, 2011

Rauch on for the 3rd day in a row?

This will end well.

RedSox have managed to stay competitive year in and year out.

Drabek, Cosart, Singleton, D'Arnaud, all in two seasons.

That's a lot of great talent... This is their run, no question.

Wizard.

Rauch's HR/H is now 18%. He is also officially a below-replacement-level player.

Gose also, for Oswalt.

Isn't Oswalt retiring?

He's gonna decide after the season I think but he's leaning towards retirement.

I have to think they're showcasing him, somehow, and it is not going well.

Edit: Lind has been SPECTACULAR, defensively.

No, he's rehabbing now, might pitch for the Phillies late next week. In any case, I meant that they've traded away more prospects than he listed.

Nice!

Just hit a HR already and end this.

What is going on in Detroit? I have never seen the Tigers play so aggressive.

An anonymous person on a message board... Just like the rest of us?

jakncoke · Jul 30, 2011

At least we scored some runs.

Dmncnby2k9 · Jul 30, 2011

Damn, the bullpen sucks. Parnell and Byrdak struggled and now Carrasco.

Holy crap zep, you've been gone so long that his guy who has been here a year and a half didn't even get the joke.

I really hope you feel shame.

Windu · Jul 30, 2011

looks like Emilio Bonifacio's 26 game hit streak is going to end.

You don't get the joke, it's ok nvm.

dammit LJ11 stop bringing your Bills' pessimism to the situation!

LJ11 · Jul 30, 2011

Carrasco's a disaster, miracle if we get out of this.

ConradCervantes · Jul 30, 2011

Low support as usual for Wolf, but he got out of a few jams. Gritty, that's how we like 'em.

Throw up dat T!

Dmncnby2k9 · Jul 30, 2011

2 outs, one more, against their best hitter, Let's go Carrasco!

Yet the Phillies minor league director still manages to keep a top 10 farm system in the league. The Phillies minor league scouting is an organization strength now.

The Frankman · Jul 30, 2011

See, NOW it's ok to worry. Zimmerman vs. Carrasco.

Holy shit what is DJ on?

LJ11 · Jul 30, 2011

HAHAHAHA

Thanks for the help umps!

Dale Scott knows Jerry Meals can't be trusted with the call so he doesn't even ask for help. Can't have him blowing another call now.

Yes, realized that after reading it again. NOW I feel shame.

Tried to edit out my stupidity, but that failed as well.

JABEE · Jul 30, 2011

RT @jaysonst: #Astros also sending cash to #Phillies as part of Pence deal. Otherwise, Phillies likely would have been over luxury-tax threshold #trades

hahahahahaha

Square Triangle · Jul 30, 2011

Where is Turnbuckle? None of you assholes care about the division leading (lol) Tigers like us! Fuckers.

cuevas. PhD. · Jul 30, 2011

I would make out with aj

darkside31337 · Jul 30, 2011

Josh Zeid is 1 of the 2 PTBNL's in the Pence trade.

Guess he's not a PTBNL then. Might as well be.

JABEE · Jul 30, 2011

I can't believe the Astros are sending money too.

According to Heyman it was just 1 million dollars.

well it makes sense with the amount of talent the phillies are sending and the financial freedom that it is giving the astros for 2012-2013.

The Frankman · Jul 30, 2011

Zeid is not a PTBNL. lol

Maxim726X · Jul 30, 2011

Izzy- A better close than K-Rod.

jakncoke · Jul 30, 2011

So with all these big deals, seems Pirates wont get anything worth a damn. Which i guess isn't so bad to fuck up the future for 1 season but eh sucks to basically bow out the race. Hope we still finish .500

JABEE said:

Why, they just fucked you, it's customary to leave cash on the nightstand.

Knux-Future · Jul 30, 2011

Not a big baseball guy..but since every other franchise in this city is making moves I'd atleast like to know if the dudes they are getting are good or not.

Is Pence even good?

Decent starter - Cosart
A player who is blocked and nowhere near ready for the big leagues - Singleton
24yr old with a 5.65ERA in AA - Zeid

Yea, we got jerked big time! Thanks but I'll take the proven commodity

from the astros lol

once again.

You guys have been waiting long enough...If I were a Pirates fan I would have liked to have seen my FO go for it and try to make some deals.

two of their top 5 prospects in Cosart and Singleton and Zeid, their 13th best (by Sickels)?

Even if blocked, that's a ton of value for a non-ace

proven commodity

Hardly.
