Girardi was great at managing a team with ownership that hated him, so maybe once Hank "not as cool as Hank Hill" Steinbrenner gets fed up with him he'll kick some ass?

Girardi and Francoma both have brain damage.

I have to say, you nailed it on the head.

Also, any word on

Some sort of back injury is what I heard about the Dice King.

fuck me, dice-k went down. how many of my fantasy pitchers are going to get hurt this fucking year.
I feel your pain. I've had Lowry, Carmona, Lackey, Peavy, Wandy, and numerous others all spend time on the DL at some point. It's ridiculous.
 
Well, as annoying as putting in Hawkins was, at least Girardi didn't put in his worst available pitcher in the 9th inning on the road when his closer was fully available. He waited until he had virtually no choice (although I really wish he had put out Veras instead :( )

Carmona, Dice-K, and Gallardo, Westbrook, Wandy, and Kazmir but he doesn't really count, started on the dl, if he gets hurt for realz I may shoot myself. Carmona and Gallardo are both on the same team too.
 
omg exactly. HOLY MOTHERFUCKIN BALL COCK SUCKING BALL LIMP DICKING FUCK BASKET SUCK FUCKING OMG

WHY THE FUCK DO YOU GO WITH LATROY INSTEAD OF VERAS?? ARE YOU FUCKING IDIOTIC?!??

THATS 3 WEVE LOST TO BAD MANAGERIAL DECISIONS JOE. YOU FUCKING IDIOT.

At least your bench isn't full and you're left with hitters on the DL in batting spots because you're just out of people who wont be playing. Stupid Figging. I really needed him back.
 
lol IPK is hurt lol

Goddammit, can't catch a break. IPK to the DL, and then send him down for rehab starts, please. Rasner's devil magic will hold the #4 spot just fine until Hughes heals and Joba is ready to start.

Send Shelly Duncan down too. He's not looking like he's going to pan out, and he may actually be worse at 1B than Giambeast. Call up Scott Patterson, and DFA LATROCIOUS.
 
A guy from LL caught Manny's 499th HR. Actually he's a buddy that I spent the weekend in Canada with. I was supposed to go to tonight's game with him and I'm taller than him :(
 
Damn that was a hell of a slide by Alexei Ramirez

How is he doing? I own him in all my leagues.
3 runs earned through 5, and he's probably done now. He looked pretty sharp until that last inning when he struggled with his control a little bit.
 
Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Chase Utley received the highest number of votes among National League players in All-Star Game balloting figures, which were released Tuesday by Major League Baseball.

:D
 
TCQ is pretty much the man. Jesus what a steal that deal was.

Also, while the White Sox starters have been among the best in the AL all year, this bullpen is absolutely crazy. Dotel is having an extremely solid(albeit not great...does lead AL relievers in K's though) season, Jenks is, well, Jenks, and Linebrink has been absolutely out of this world.

I was one of the people saying we gave him way too much money. Oops.

1.12 ERA, 370 ERA+, .87 WHIP, BAA under .190

yikes


edit: also this is pretty funny from a bit ago:
Scott Linebrink has been unable to pitch for several days because of migraine headaches.
''I believe him because he's a real religious guy,'' manager Ozzie Guillen said. ''Someone else tells me they have a migraine, I know they are hung over.''
 
I'm reading a baseball book and I'm really suprised how good it is. Anyone looking for a great read pick up The Mind of Bill James: How a Complete Outsider Changed Baseball.

THRILLING! THRILLING! EXCITING! SKITTLES!!! & Ragin' Cajun superiority confirmed.
 
A couple of retarded Cubs fans almost interfered with a foul ball in left field, distracting the already terrible Soriano from catching it. Did they not learn anything from Bartman?
