I hate the stros.

The one team in the NL Central that has given us issues all year. :/

Thankfully I believe we only have to play them two more times after today.

Cubs acquire RHP Trachsel from Orioles

http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_y...F?slug=ap-orioles-cubstrade&prov=ap&type=lgns

The Cubs sent pitcher Rocky Cherry and infielder Scott Moore to Baltimore for Trachsel.

Joba suspended for 2 games and fined.

 

[Odysseus]

Joba suspended for 2 games and fined.

what the heck for? that's ludicrous.

bah, he wasn't going to pitch for two games anyway.

 

[Tamanon]

I know he probably had no reason to throw at Youk's head, but you gotta admit, the first time looked suspicious, the second time even moreso. :lol

Naw homie. Would that guy really try to kill a man on the mound? Cause, that would have killed him if it hit him in the head. But, on the other hand, two times is a little odd.

 

[Odysseus]

no blood, no foul

 

[Karakand]

Joba suspended for 2 games and fined.

Good Joba, MLB disciplinary committee.

 

[captmcblack]

throw intentionally at Jeter and A-rod each Sox/Yanks game and hit them: no warnings

throw clearly unintentionally at some random Sox lamer at the end of a game up 5 runs, in line for your first MLB save and DON'T hit them: get ejected without warning, fined and suspended


Okay.

 

[Karakand]

MLB HATES THE YANQUIS IT'S TERRIBLE BUSINESS FOR THEM IF THEY'RE GREAT STOP HOLDING THE MEN BACK SELIG STOP HOLDING THEM BACK

 

[firex]

I was going to say... Frankman probably paid off the umps!

 

[Cloudy]

Phil Hughes is garbage...

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Phil Hughes is garbage...

Fucking hilarious. OMG HE GAVE UP ONE RUN HE SUCKS

 

[Tamanon]

Fucking hilarious. OMG HE GAVE UP ONE RUN HE SUCKS

I don't even know why I look at the game score when Kobex says stuff like that, I should just know it's just a minor error.

 

[Odysseus]

at the time, one run had scored and two men were on and nobody was out. in the first inning.

i mean, i found it alarming too when i checked it on espn.com.

 

[Triumph]

Anyone up for an avatar bet for this Braves-Mets series? I'm feelin' good.

 

[tyguy20204]

Brewers will win the NL Central.

 

[Cloudy]

Fucking hilarious. OMG HE GAVE UP ONE RUN HE SUCKS

I hate when Pitchers stink it up in the first. Way to suck the life out of the team. Plus he was lucky to escape with just 1 run..

In other news:

Chicago - Top of 1st Score
Fausto Carmona pitching for Cleveland CHW CLE
J Owens walked. 0 0
J Fields singled to right, J Owens to third. 0 0
J Thome walked, J Fields to second. 0 0
J Dye struck out swinging. 0 0
A Pierzynski struck out swinging. 0 0
A Gonzalez struck out swinging. 0 0

Yeah, it's all Ozzie's fault. ROOFLES...

 

[Tamanon]

Hey look at that, shockingly we found our bats again.:/

It's Fausto Carmona. The best pitcher in the American League.

 

[Tamanon]

It's Fausto Carmona. The best pitcher in the American League.

Combined with the White Sox, one of the worst lineups in the league!

 

[Cloudy]

It's Fausto Carmona. The best pitcher in the American League.

It's bases loaded and no outs. Is 2 shots at a sac-fly asking too much of these guys?

Combined with the White Sox, one of the worst lineups in the league!

You're right but pretty much this same lineup w/o Thome won a WS. I mean WTF!

 

[R_GILL]

This might be sad but I think John McDonald is our clutchest player other than Stairs.

 

[Cloudy]

That's what happens when you keep walking batters... *sigh*

Where are the Hughes defenders now? This kid isn't ready at all...

edit: He wasn't afraid to get hit when he first came up but I think the HRs in Detroit rattled him...

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

P-HUG FUTURE 23 CY YOUNGS HALL OF FAMER ETC.

At least Joba can come in and pitch some inning......oh wait.

 

[Triumph]

Oh wow, Andruw Jones just struck out with a runner on base to end an inning. That hasn't ever happened... today.

 

[Cloudy]

At least Washburn is getting shelled too..

 

[Windu]

Oh wow, Andruw Jones just struck out with a runner on base to end an inning. That hasn't ever happened... today.

Its part of his contract.

edit: thank god Escobar is alright, I would kill myself if we had to play Woodworth everyday.

 

[Tamanon]

Tavarez starting to get shelled:/

 

[vas_a_morir]

I heart Brandon Phillips (platonic)

Already a triple.

 

[Cloudy]

Nice hit by A-Rod

 

[R_GILL]

What the hell, where were all these home runs when we needed them?

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Julolian Tavarez.

 

[Karakand]

Nice hit by A-Rod

AN A-BLOOP FOR A-ROD

 

[Cloudy]

Get Huhges outta there after this inning. What a pathetic start...

 

[Windu]

Damn you Carlos!

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Philolp Hughes and Julolian Tavarez.

 

[Triumph]

I wonder how we can figure out how to blow this chance!

 

[ToyMachine228]

Get Huhges outta there after this inning. What a pathetic start...

I'm a huge Yankees fan but in general Yankee fans are way to harsh. I can be at times too but give the kid a break. He's been called up at 20 years old and everyone expects him to be the new rocket. It's his rookie season and there's a ton of pressure on him. He's going to be here for a long time and he's got a bright future ahead of him.

 

[Odysseus]

yanks and the sox are both getting pounded

seattle's losing, too

 

[Enron]

Well, that about wraps it up for Atlanta

 

[MrOctober]

Looks like our August meltdown is being pushed into early September.

 

[jman2050]

Don't look now, but...

*nudges towards the MIN game*

 

[Tamanon]

Holy crap it's a slightly better than imperfect game going on!

BTW, ESPN's going to cut away from the UW/Cuse game to cover the Minnesota game.

 

[Enron]

What the hell, we were gonna lose anyways. Lets give em a few more runs!

Thank god for football season. Baseball season = officially over!

 

[ToxicAdam]
