That means Joba is okay. If that guy was on any other team I would be a fan

Zito has to be one of the biggest fails by a GM in recent baseball history

I feel the same way about the Yankees. Joba sure can throw some heat tho'.

THEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE RED SOX WIN!
Two great games the last couple of nites against the Jays, both with walk-off wins.

Last nite Haliday snapped, going the distance for the 4th time, but resulting in a 3rd loss...ouch!

 

[MasterOLightning]

Massive victory for the Cubs tonight. Soto and Fukudome are the two best rookies in the NL.

 

[cookiecutter]

My friend has a theory that the Cubs will win the World Series because they picked up Reed Johnson after the Jays cut him. I've always had a liking for the Brewers but I wouldn't mind the Cubs doing well.

Also two great wins by the Red Sox the past two days

 

[seedofvengeance]

What is the correlation between Reed Johnson and the World Series?

 

[cookiecutter]

There is a historic pattern of former Blue Jays going on to do a lot better after leaving the team.

 

[BasilisK]

The umpires need to get their shit straight. We lost a game - and a starting 1B - on a missed call that I've seen three or four times already this season.




p.s. Congrats to Gomez on the cycle.

I'm not even watching the Giants games anymore.

 

[ThisIsACoolName]

I've only been able to watch a handful of Yankee games and I've had to skip something like four or five games that I could have gone to.

It sucks, but on the other hand, the Yankees probably aren't worth watching this time of year. Seriously, they ALWAYS suck for the first couple of months, and my Mom is ALWAYS all fucking doom and gloom about it. Though my boy Jorge going on the DL is worrisome... A-Rod took BP the other day and he's feeling fully recovered, so I'm not worried about him.

Be afraid...very afraid!
Honestly, I respect and fear the Yanks always...until I mathmatically know they are out.
The Sox had the whole Japan trip, then more travel and a very tough April schedule. I was hoping for atleast a .500 start, and got much better than that...and thats with Big Papi doing the big poopoo. The very bright side is the Sox youth is really making an impact (now) along with the older vets / stars.

 

[Dr. Pete]

I can't watch the Royals' offense. D'Backs, on the other hand, are doing well.

 

[seedofvengeance]

Three straight shutouts and 31 straight scoreless innings! I feel like my baseball fanhood has a purpose!

 

[muzmaze]

Nice win for the Sox.
Jed Lowrie is better than Lugo. Theo is going to trade Lugo, Crisp and Tavares at the break...this team will be even better for it.
