Tonight, we've switched Tim Lincecum and Randy Wells. Let's see if anyone notices. -
7 hits so far: 4 HRs, 2 long doubles off the wall, and an infield single.
-
And another HR.
-
It appears Randy Wells and Tim Lincecum have switched bodies for a day.
-
Meanwhile, Wells has just 77 pitches through 6.
-
1st and 3rd with nobody out and a run in already in the 7th, chance to really blow this one open. EDIT: Consider it blown, with the 6th hit of the game being another longball.
-
That's 5 hits, and 4 of them were just destroyed.
-
Floyd and Green, because I like the Bears.

Manningham, Skins pass defense is overrated and Eli is better than Fitzpatrick.
-
Joe Flacco vs. Pittsburgh or Matt Cassel vs. Buffalo?
-
My team name this year is the Thundercat Hoes. Yep, that's all I could come up with.
-
Joe Johnson Josh Byrnes would be Boozer, the guy who's nobody's first choice but is easy to talk yourself into after the a-listers are out of the picture. Rick Hahn = David Lee Brian Cashman = Amar'e Stoudemire
-
It's the summer of LeBron all over again. Which means the Marlins are about to land a windfall of talent, with Beane as team president, Epstein as GM and Friedman as assistant GM.
-
Because the only thing better than Z for one year at 18 million is Burnett for two years at 18 million.
-
Make that 9 now with that lazy infield single.
-
Ramirez has now reached base in 8 straight PAs, and 11 of his last 12.
-
Aramis needs to teach the rest of the lineup to hit...and pitch, apparently.
-
Aramis trying to tie the game the only way he knows how, by doubling and then singling in the same AB.
-
He had a nasty collision with Marcus Giles, and then his manager left him in the game to pitch? He took a line drive off his pitching elbow, and then his manager left him in the game to pitch?
-
.293 .330 .395 .725 at home. I agree he usually shouldn't hit higher than 6, but your overreaction is hysterical. He's not an everyday player because of that line? OK then. Straight out of the figures lie and liars figure handbook. Those numbers mean very little when he doesn't hit with men on base. You have to score runs to win and Byrd rarely helps that happen. How anyone can deny his lack of production is mind numbing and hysterically funny. .204/.255/.306 with runners in scoring position this year. You can have him on your team, I prefer a better player. Speaking of pots and kettles... Career overall: .283/.341/.423/.764 Career RISP: .276/.344/.418/.762

That escalated in a hurry.
-
He's also made the most outs, which kind of disappoints me. Very Juan Pierre-y, though he'll hopefully/probably pass him as a player. The only thing really "Pierre-y" about him is his walk rate, which I really blame organizational philosophy on more than him, specifically. The only glaring issues with Castro at this point are his walk rate and his throwing accuracy (although his range stat value fluctuated wildly this year from last...). I think both of those can be fixed with the proper coaching.
-
Well, the most relevant recent example I can think of was Soriano. I don't think any reduction or modification in contract resulted when they discovered he was 3 years old than he claimed.
