Rehabbing Alec Mills will start for Myrtle Beach today.

Official roster: http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/events/afl/club.jsp?team_id=555 Pedro Araujo Oscar de la Cruz Alec Mills Jake Stinnett Ian Rice David Bote Jason Vosler Charcer Burks Not bad, only one I didn't list was Araujo. Admittedly I guessed 11 candidates for 8 spots.

AFL rosters come out today. My guesses (if I get more than 2 right, I'll be happy): Oscar de la Cruz or Alec Mills Jake Stinnett Craig Brooks Brad Markey Ian Rice or PJ Higgins Jason Vosler David Bote Charcer Burks Bijan Rademacher I think Tseng, Maples and Alzolay have done enough to warrant a 40-man spot and some rest.

I hope the Dodgers never win another series. Assholes.

Yikes, Heyward should have caught that. You don't normally see that.

It's crazy he's pitched successfully in multiple WS-clinching games when he's got such shitty mound presence.

They did delete it but horsefeathers the Cardinals forever for that.

Man, I went 0-4 the last two seasons while the Cubs won 200 regular season games.

I have to wonder if he's hurt. He hasn't been right all season.

wut Almora has been pretty crappy defensively this year. His UZR this year is -2.1. Happ's is -0.3. However, last year Almora was at 5.7 UZR. That matches the eye test. Happ is faster, Almora gets better reads. Happ has (surprisingly) been a better defender. Almora was faster last year. I don't imagine Almora catches that double either.

Adbert Alzolay went 10 days between starts (Aug 10 to Aug 20), got roughed up on Aug 20th and is now on the DL.

I mean, Jay is probably a worse CF than Happ. Well that's cool and all, but I wasn't talking about Jay's defense. Jay's our CF and so when he isn't in, especially late in the game, I'd rather see Heyward or Almora in CF. Ugh, Jay better not be the everyday CF over Happ. I'm with you on Heyward but I'm not sure Almora is actually better than Happ defensively.

I mean, Jay is probably a worse CF than Happ.

Man, the strike zone Votto gets is so frustrating.
