MLB Talk

I'll remember it.

...Zack...Zack...Grie...****.

Kyle Farnsworth? Am I saying it right?

Glad to see Zack earned himself five seconds on Baseball Tonight.

If anyone wearing a Yankee/BoSox/Cub uniform had this going, they'd have their pants around their ankles and be bent over their desks.

I am not an optomist about my Rockies

I have a feeling Ubaldo atleast will have a great year.

Also, both Greinke and Millwood threw CGs today..and did so on the exact same number of pitches, 111.

Vlad going to the DL?? Nooooo :mad::mad::mad::mad::(:(

Spoken like a true Rockies fan :p

I never was, I didn't see the pitching coming through for anything worth a damn without Francis.

I hate ESPN for this exact reason, but I have beaten that horse on this thread already

yes, that's what good respectful fans do metsguy...you show respect for the guy for what he did accomplish, which is incredibly difficult. I am glad the fans can recognize it and show him appreciation that is very easily deserved

Somebody might want to start remembering this kid's name.

i hope for Kansas City and Zach's sake he starts to get what he deserves....he has always had an incredible ability

Warning track power for Beltre lol

Why? According to metsguy, he's nothing special, and it's an absolute joke to think that he could contend for the Cy Young this year. :rolleyes:

Yeah dood, Greinke sucks. He really doesn't deserve a rotation spot on even a minor league team. John Maine and Livan Hernandez are where it's at :rolleyes:

Loney + a prospect for Halladay.

Loney, Russell Martin and a prospect. Why would my team want to trade the best starting pitcher in the game to your team for a 1B that you say sucks and some throw-away prospect. WTF is that?

So happy to see this. Besides "Doc" Halladay, Greinke is one of my absolute faves.

New Yankee Stadium sure looks like to be a HR Hotbox.

1-0 Cleveland..yeah, that "HR" looked like a routine line drive for an out..but it just took off.

If the Jays are dealing Halladay we need a guy who's a lock to become a superstar and more. (like Hanley a few years back)

Go Toronto! Beat the A's :D (sorry ragecage, but you understand :p)

Try being a Nats fan. Go ahead, try it.

You'll be uttering cuss words you never even knew existed.

Hey now, the Nats are only 9.5 GB after 11 games. It could be worse.

HOLY CRAP ! ! !

Manny Acta's not a happy camper. I've never seen him this way since he's been in Washington.

They asked him what more he could do and he said "Well, we're getting a whole new bullpen tomorrow. This is unacceptable and won't be tolerated. And if they can't get the job done, we'll bring in some more guys." LOL, methinks I wouldn't want to be in that locker tonight.

Guess GMs can look to the waiver wire tonight. Sounds like some Nats (former Nats) might be available. No clue why anyone would want 'em though.

Right, they could relocate to Portland or something. Would that be the third team leaving?

Carlos SIlva's day in a nutshell.

"Silva is in an 0-2 count"

3 pitches later

"So Hitter X has worked his way to a 3-2 count"

10 pitches later

"And it's a base hit with the hit & run on"

Trey Hillman is a stupid, stupid person. Why put in Soria in a tight game when you can put in Jamey Wright.

This is the third loss (don't worry, it'll happen) that can directly be attributed to Hillman. Unbelievable.

Well, I think Terry Francona is the only manager that would go to his best reliever in that situation.

Unfortunately. :(

RJ with a no-no into the 7th in San Fran.

The Rangers just put their closer in in the 9th in a tie game. Hillman is probably crying because he thinks the Rangers are cheating by doing that.

As soon as I start listening to it on Gameday Audio, Ojeda breaks it up.

DAMMIT!

Guess I did jinx him. Leadoff double. :(

I'm e-mailing RJ right now to let him know what you two did. Gonna be trouble!

OFG i feel in pain for your Nationals, especially when they play the Marlins

Tie game into the 9th. Who does Hillman go to? Best pitcher? Nope, put in Farnsworth.

Two pitches later, game over.

SURPRISE!!!
