  1. Theriot was safe on multiple fronts and it wasn't even close.
  2. At least one team in each league gets an off day each day. Who wants to go to work every single weekend day for months at a time? People who have every weekday off for 4-5 months a year.
  3. Because then, according to MLB, there would have to be an interleague game scheduled EVERY DAY! God forbid. Are you volunteering to coordinate a feasible schedule?
  4. McDaniel has now struck out 6 of the last 7 hitters. Vitters with a throwing error, his 6th. Thomas adds to his double with a triple. His OPS is now about 1.020.
  5. Pick him up and drop Upton.
  6. Did everyone else know that a GIDP counts as 2 in GO-FO? That's what they said for Coleman's first inning at least, K, single, GIDP.
  7. Coleman getting the start in Game 1 for Tennessee. Thomas leads off the game with a double and a run.

  9. Seems kinda lame that if players take banned substances that could boost their performance and get suspended, the team can replace them; but if a player loses his temper and yells at an umpire and gets suspended, they can't be replaced.
  10. Correct, Cleveland is vastly superior to St. Louis. I disagree. They're almost exactly the same city. Except Cleveland's winters are from hell. Don't let a baseball rivalry cloud your judgement. It's remarkable how similar the two places are. As much as we may complain about the two Mayor Daleys with their big machine politics and greed: they saved Chicago from going down the same path to ruin many other cities went to. We got lucky. Then again, the current King Richard may just tax this city into oblivion. I lived in the Cleveland area for 13 years, the weather there is so much better. You can stay outside for more than 5 minutes at a time in the summer, and when it's bitterly cold in the winter you actually get snow instead of 40 mph wind. They were right about the sun though, Cleveland winters are one gray day after another.
  11. This reminds me of the old Todd Walker photoshops, except it's real. Outstanding work.
  12. They've had a few rainouts. I imagine it's Coleman, since he was scheduled for yesterday's game that got rained out.
  13. http://www.mouthpiecesports.com/cubsblog/2009/05/07/derreks-pain-neck-shoulder-arm/
  14. The NCAA has decided that if a player is fouled and hurt too badly to take the free throws, the opposing coach can choose the free throw shooter among the remaining players on the court. Yes, let's give incentive for fouls hard enough to injure another player!
  15. Put in Bobby Scales, then. I probably prefer Miles.
  16. Correct, Cleveland is vastly superior to St. Louis.
  17. He's playing because there's a LHP on the mound and Fontenot has played 14 of the last 15 days.
  18. Lineup Soriano Theriot Bradley Ramirez Soto Johnson Hoffpauir Miles Harden
  19. It's funny how Lidge's teams ultimately come out ahead in those situations.
  20. Ascanio, Coleman, and Cashner, fun pitching day. They let Cashner go 3 innings, he gave up a single, 2 walks, and struck out 2, with a 4-2 GO-FO. Coleman and Tennessee are rain delayed. And Peoria is having a nice offensive day, with 7 runs thru 4. Vitters is 2 for 3 with a double(he's now slugging .470), Burke is 2 for 2 with a double and a walk, Flaherty is 2 for 3 with a pair of doubles, and Junior Lake is 1 for 2 with his first home run.
  21. I think it probably went something like this: "Without me, Conference USA is no different than the MAC, come to a conference where there are more than zero good teams." Of course, he's selling the SEC, so there's like 2 good teams, but the point remains.
