Better get used to it 'cause the Nats are shopping Clippard.

Yeah that game against the Pirates was pretty awesome!

 

[Mr. Enigma]

I like how nobody in the media is talking about Jim Thome's march to 600 home runs. He hit #596 today.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Is it just me, or do the Pirates play the Astros a lot

EDIT: It's just me. I guess they played them close to the break or something?

 

[jakncoke]

We have to be basically done with them.

I honestly think a lot of the media have forgotten that Thome is still a major league baseball player.

18 games a year. Bud's unbalanced schedule at work.

 

[CygnusXS]

Heyman's saying that the Rockies asked for Montero, Banuelos, Betances, and Nova in return for Ubaldo.

Ballsy.

 

[jakncoke]

[CygnusXS]

My offer to trade Felix, Pineda, Bedard, Vargas, Fister, Beaven, Walker, Paxton, Hultzen for a team that can't pitch worth shit but can smack the ball around like crazy still stands.

I think they're better off trying to win with pitching in a park like Safeco, but maybe it's just me.

Wait, NM, Cubs suck at everything.

 

[Levyne]

Pirates are tied for first place.

Is this real life?

well he's not on the yankees or red sox, so he doesn't matter.


Here's the 490-foot blast for those of you who haven't seen it.

Welp. That frame of mind hasn't been working the past 2 seasons ... and its very fucking frustrating to watch the team as it is.

Well you can't have one of the worst offenses of all time. They're not on pace to be that much better this year than last year offensively. They really are wasting Felix right now, unfortunately.

Sad part is ... Felix wants to stay.

Awesome. Got tense there at the end.

Never an easy win...good lord.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Giants take the lead in the 11th with the suicide squeeze, lol.

 

[Sanjuro]

Thank god for Sunday Night Baseball. Haven't been able to watch a game the last two nights.

Heyman's saying that the Rockies asked for Montero, Banuelos, Betances, and Nova in return for Ubaldo.

Ballsy.

Damn, what a haul if this ever happened.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Damn Padres, bunt into double-play with no outs in the 9th.

 

[Windu]

i don't know why the yankees would think the rockeis would be willing to trade Jiminez anyway. He has a friendly contract:

11:$2.8M, 12:$4.2M, 13:$5.75M club option ($1M buyout), 14:$8M club option ($1M buyout)

And are not exactly the marlins anyway, they draw about 2.5-3 million fans every year.

Yea they aren't trading him, like you said that contract is really team friendly. Also Heyman said the rockies are asking for Montero, Baunelos, Betances and Nova. No thanks.

If they could replenish their farm system I could see them doing it. Look at the haul they are asking from the Yankees. That said, I don't think the Yankees (or any team) would give up that many top grade prospects, so a deal isn't likely. It'd be too hard for both sides to get what they want.

 

[Sanjuro]

Jeter, Posada, and Rivera for Jiminez .

I wish the Rockies GM would throw that out just to see the media explosion.

 

[Doytch]

man, whenever i watch tampa, they always have some scrub playing for them that i've never heard of. pretty hilarious, given that they're in the same division as the jays.

He plays for the Twins.

evan longoria has been playing for a few years

[Sanjuro]

Remember Longoria was on the cover of a video game nobody played? Good times.

 

[Sanjuro]

Someone needs to tell ESPN that Damon played for the A's.

Rockies already have an overpaid SS.

Now is the perfect time to stockpile them. Antiques hold great value.

Getting Jeter could help the Rockies tap into the growing hispanic community in Colorado.

Fucking Jeff Niemann is so mediocre. I don't get why he's awesome tonight.

Did Schulman just call A-Gon front runner for MVP too? I thought he was one of the smart ones..

if the Yanks get Ubaldo, I'll be sick. Jesus Montero is overrated as fuck. .750 OPS repeating AAA with no position.

How isn't he? I thought you were one of the smart ones.
