2008 MLB Season

GO DODGERS!

[The Sultan of Swank]

I gotta get behind SDM's logic. Plus the only famous Jew in sports and possibly the greatest pitcher since 1950 was a Dodger for life. (L) Koufax.

This is all Jays talk because EWB fags hate sports that aren't english soccer.

"What is this topic for rounders all about?" JAYS JAYS JAYS "Back to talking about how I want to have sex with C Ronaldo."

Christiano Ronaldo IS a very attractive man, though.

As a Tigers fan, I have to say...I can't watch baseball anymore. It pisses me off too damned much.

Justin Speir can go to hell.

Mark Spitz?

Interesting move by the Yankees to not start Kennedy. They lost the game 4-0. By the way check out this boxscore.

That went to 15 innings in the end? Blimey. I was able to watch the Mets/Phillies game earlier, wasn't the best, the Phillies kicked their own ass with all of those errors.

I eagerly await Yankees/Bo-Sox this weekend, hope Jeter's injury doesn't keep him out too long.

[LittleDaniel]

So, how 'bout those Orioles?

Seriously, I don't pay attention to baseball, except for when I plan on going. And when the team gets about 8,000 fans. That was cool too.

What a finish to the Mets game. Pagan has been great for the Mets so far. Drives in the winning run in the 12th after Reyes gets on base with a 2 out double. Not to be outdone Sosa came in for a 3rd consecutive night tonight and got a big out in the top of the 12th.

Ed Sprague admits to using steroids and corked bats.

I don't think they helped him much.

Or maybe you can tell what year he really used them. 1996.....seems like a Brady Anderson type year when you look back at it.

Gregg Zaun stole home. Those are four words I'd never thought I'd ever see strung together.

He was probably willing to try anything after Howard Battle got huge pops for replacing him for a few games the previous September.

Someone tried to jinx the Yanks.

It's interesting considering even when the team had its horrible seasons in the 80's, O's games were still pretty well-attended. But they were fun, and the fans had hope. Now neither exist, and look what happens.

At least we had a fun week being in first, time to sink back to the cellar and pray Angelos sells the team.

[Ananas]

Now THAT is a fucking closer. BJ Ryan returns for his first appearance in a year, throws two great strikes, then makes a good pitch that Byrd manages to get his bat across and find the most impossible fucking gap and get himself a triple. And because BJ Ryan is fucking BJ Ryan he settles down, gets an easy grounder to short, a pop up to shallow left and a blooper to right to get out of it clean. Happy to see his pace, power and steady nerves back, because we're going to need him down the stretch.

So the Jays swept Texas in Texas. I don't have the stats immediately in front of me, but I think it's probably safe to say that this hasn't happened in quite a while. Now we throw McGowan and Marcum against Baltimore, and hopefully we can come away with two more. Consistency is obviously going to be the key to being a contender this year.

David Ortiz is doing bad, JD Drew is doing pretty good. What the hell happened here?

And bummer that the Yankees dug up the jersey.

Hughes just threw 39 pitches in the first inning and gave up 3 runs.
