Blah, not that its that big of a deal but we get the front end of the Reds and Astros rotations (Harang/Cueto/Oswalt/Wandy) in our upcoming series. Good news is Harang is now mediocre, Cueto is struggling big time, we seem to hit Oswalt decently usually and Wandy is slightly worse on the road.

The Ugliest Man in Baseball

Neither one of them can compete with the all-time leader -- Don Mossi

JEBUS CHRIS! That mug's gonna give me nightmares!

yeah, unless i see evidence to the contrary, don mossi will forever be the ugliest man to play major league baseball. he was even legendary for his ugliness during his playing days.

 

Don Mossi had two careers, one as a reliever an one as a starter, and he was pretty darned good at both. No one who saw him play remembers that, because Mossi's ears looked as if they had been borrowed from a much larger species, and reattached without proper supervision. His nose was crooked, his eyes were in the wrong place... he looked like Gary Gaetti escaping from Devil's Island.

 

One of the problems with choosing the ugliest and handsomest players is that a player who looks short of grotesque in one pose or one photograph will look fine in another. Susie, showed me a picture of Hoyt Wilhelm in which he looked positively handsome. I assured her it was just a bad shot.

 

You never had this problem with Don Mossi. Don Mossi was the complete five-tool ugly player. He could run ugly, hit ugly, throw ugly, field ugly, and ugly for power. He was ugly to all fields. He could ugly behind the runner as well as anybody, and you talk about pressure... man, you never saw a player who was uglier the in clutch.

See, "clutch" DOES exist...

Cubs have a chance to end the Reds season this weekend, it's haning on by a thread right now.

 

Sources say myself and flames will be in the blechers on Sunday.

At the worst, we should win 2 of 3 this weekend. A sweep would be great because I don't really see the Cards having much of an issue with the Nats.

Well, today is the only day they play the nats...

 

Then it's on to a 3 game series in Philly. Today's game is a makeup from an earlier rainout. And...they're delayed by rain currently. So that's fun.

The Cardinals are only in DC for one game; it's a make up of an earlier rain out. Tomorrow they open a series up in Philly.

 

Go Philles !!

This guy looks like one of Davey Jones crew from Pirates of the Carribean

 

The right side of his face looks like it's about to hatch something.
