Its getting ugly down here in Miami. Davies just didn't have it from the outset.

Erik Bedard gives up 5 runs pitching at home against Oakland :(

the fantasy gods hate me this year. I don't know what I did to upset them so much.
8-3....the real world baseball gods don't seem to be smiling today either.

I'm cool with that though, no question that the unstoppable MARK REDMAN will tear the Marlins apart tomorrow.
 
Jesus who taught John McDonald how to hit, he has been our best hitter other than Hill. I am going to enjoy it while it lasts.
 
Gibbons doesn't trust anyone in this bullpen it seems. Frasor in to get Lugo. Let us see if Frasor blows this 5 - 3 lead.
 
God, Ambiorix Burgos might be worse than Jorge Juilo.

1 IP, 3 BB, 1 K - Lidge-like numbers.

Time to watch the Yankees game now ... so when is the next starting pitcher coming in?
 
Looks like Frasor is going to wait till the 9th to blow this lead. Hopefully we can score some insurance runs before than.
 
Braves definitely managed to make it interesting towards the end there. Really frustrating loss like that with two of the stars out of the lineups. And, the whole giving 6 runs in the 5th inning thing. They're gonna have to work on that. Pretty weak performance from Davies.

OH well!

At least BJ Upton is hitting the ball well, so the night isn't a complete loss.

BJ Upton is a straight up STUD. Best young player I have seen all year.
Somebody hasn't been watching enough Kelly Johnson!
 
Whew, Street came so close to blowing that...Thank you Jesus...

Yep. Still hate the Jays.

LOL @ the Yankees pitching staff
As much as I'd love to laugh it up at the Yanks, the knowledge that they'll call Hughes, pull Clemens out of their ass, and that at least somebody else is gonna be healthy by the end of the year curbs my sense of amusement here.

Dear Cashman,

If you are interested in an over the hill, journeyman, former all star starter (and something tell me you are)- we'll be happy to trade you Mark Redman. Phil Hughes should be an agreeable price.
 
I don't know why Torre PH for Phelps and not for Melky. Phelps = not total ass, Melky....total ass.

Dear Gruco,

I hear this Mark Redman is a pitcher with questionable talent. I will take him, but I demand you take more than Hughes to make up for the many years of "Yankee guilt."

edit:

Nomaas in November:
11.28.2006 You gotta lotta explainin' to do

Yanks bid $26 million for Kei Igawa
Yanks bid $32 million for Daisuke Matsuzaka

There is something wrong here. We bid $26 million just to talk to this:

"The downside to Igawa is that his fastball may be a little short for MLB hitters, in which case, he'll end up a reliever, and probably a good one with that plus curve as a lefty-killing weapon. (He does throw an occasional changeup, but prefers to use his curve to get righties out as well.) The upside would be if his quick delivery makes the ball hard enough for hitters to pick up that his fastball plays up to average, in which case he could certainly pitch in the back end of an NL rotation." (Source)

Twenty-six million to talk to a back of the rotation guy or a potential reliever? Hopefully, someone knows something we don't. We're not feeling this move.
 
For those of you who don't watch Braves games regularly, one of the gimmicks the fans at the Ted do is dress up like a pun of a player's name. I think it all started with Sheff's Chefs in 03, dressed in Chef's hats, but since we've had stuff like McCann's Cans, Francouer's Franks, Chipper's Chips, etc. It's pretty cute, and a fun thing for the fans to have run with.

Anyways, the point is, I wonder how long it's going to take some enterprising fans to come to the game dressed up as Kelly's Johnsons. Because that would be HILARIOUS.

wtf ARod wait until after people respond to my musings before you do that.
 
In my main Y! league I got A-Rod 7th overall. I feel like such a genius about that everyday it's sick. :lol


4 for 5 with 2 homers and 4 runs.... and the Yanks still lose 10-8.

"I.... I'm not sure what else I can do. I guess I could *try* pitching..."
 
A-rod has fused with God himself, but we cannot pitch to save our lives.

It doesn't matter, for LORD HUGHES is coming to rape and pillage alongside him soon.

"The Frankman". . . ? wtf you smoking? Or has Yankee paranoia finally snapped something in you?

Damn, Mets game isn't streamed today. :-(

"The Frankman" is your username.
"TheFrankman86" is your screenname.

Get it right.
