I'm hoping that Brown is injured for the rest of the season, as it will hurt the Yankees even more, and buy hurting the Yankees, it will not only give me pleasure but will help out the Red Sox. I really hope that this is the season for the Red Sox, but im kinda afraid because if it is, then there will be mass riots in MA, but you gotta take the bad with the good right?

That's why you'd get far from Boston that weekend. I don't think there'd be riots in Sturbridge. Now would there be? No college, no real population. Find a bar or something away from a city.

Kevin Brown's surgery was successful and he says he'll be back for the playoffs. For the Yankees sake he better because if their postseason rotation features Esteban Loaiza, they are going to be in some serious shit.

And I have made my pick for the World Series...and it's the St. Louis Cardinals. They absolutely shalacked my team, the Dodgers, and their pitching is starting to really turn it on now with Carpenter, Williams, Morris, Marquis, and that bullpen (minus the Isringhausen explosion) pitching like a World Series champion should.

I'd like to see my Dodgers win it this year but I don't think anybody from either league is getting past the surprise buzzsaw that is the St. Louis Cardinals.

BELTRE FOR MVP.

Cards are good now, but regular season success doesn't always equal postseason success.

They did the same thing two years ago, following the death of Darryl Kile. They played out of their minds for a while, but then ran into some stiff competition (the Giants) who rocked their world and didn't even call them in the morning.

My team to watch for is Atlanta. There's got to be a reason why they continue to do what they do.

Oh, no doubt, but there has to come a time where the other shoe drops and they just fucking waylay through everyone.

I think this might be that year. And I HATE Atlanta.

Embarrassing umpiring in Oakland last night.

Ramirez caught the ball on a bounce, but it was called an out.

Kotsay caught the ball on a bounce, but it was ruled a base-hit.

YES, GO CUBBIES, KEEP THOSE DAMN BATTERY CHUCKERS FROM NORCAL (AKA, THE STEROID FREAKS... I MEAN, GIANTS) OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS!!!

[Guest kijlhumt]

Neither one of those calls were clear cut calls for an umpire running out to the outfield from second base. Baseball has far bigger issues to worry about then an umpiring crew making the wrong call on a trap.

I'm just embarassed that my Sox had to be on the wrong side of this multiple umpire botching. I would have liked to see them get a clean win against a power team like Oakland. Perhaps that entire crew got the point with the Oakland fans throwing bottles on the field like idiots.

Check out this game going on right now. Kansas City leads Detroit 24-4.....and no this isn't the NFL.

26-5 final for Kansas. Joe Randa tied the AL Record for hits in a game, he went 6-7. Now there's a hell of a game.

If the Royals whip you that badly, it's time to just quit for the rest of the season. Sucks to be Detroit.

Ouch... 26-5... just ouch. I caught the highlights of it, wow... quite a day for Joe Randa.

[grind your soul]

Don't forget, guys.. Detroit won the second half of that double header 8-0, so - it was just a fluke.

Bonds drew a record breaking 199th walk of the season tonight.
