At that pitcher can only help you, at most, once every three games in the playoffs. The bat can help you every game.

Transaction 1: Drop my whole team, add all of the perfect score guys and request that their totals before I picked them up be substituted in as well. :D

Yankees are a game over .500 and 9 games out of the division and 8 out of the wild card. I can't see them being sellers at the deadline. The Yankees' have the largest difference either way in the majors in expected W-L (52-37) is much higher than their actual W-L (45-44). They're going to get Hughes back in the next couple weeks which will help them and they still have one of the best offenses in baseball. They will at least be in the hunt for a playoff spot down the stretch.

You forgot about ARod.

Wait, so you say that getting DeRosa "was a buy high move" then suggest Ray Durham. You know, the same Durham who had a career year in 2006. Oh, and Durham is three years older and was going to cost a few million more than DeRosa. So how was getting DeRosa buying high but Durham wouldn't be? because durham had already put together a solid career. derosa was a bench player before last year. it may have been buying high, but in all likelihood you were going to get a good player out of it. Giles was the only buy-low guy available last year, and he was non-tendered long after Derosa was signed. Plus, he was nearly a sure-fire thing to go to San Diego. That doesn't change the fact that Durham was still coming off a career year (way out of his career norms) and was 35 coming into the year. He was just as likely, if not more, to have a significant dropoff than DeRosa was.

Vlad is most likely going to be a HOFer as long as he doesn't up and retire within the next year or two. Looking at his stats on B.R. I was shocked to see that his high strikeout total for a year is 95. For such a free swinger I figured he would have over 100 strikeouts in a season at least a couple times.

A New Way to Announce You've Been Called Up to the Bigs

This one tops having your father spill the beans on a message board. -
Those are my thoughts as well. The fact that they finally found something wrong and he had surgery makes me feel a little bit better about it. Who knows how affective he'll be though.

This Little League team just keeps on winning so I'm covering another game tomorrow at 7 PM. I'll be able to watch the first hour and a half or so before leaving.

The Cubs have the easiest second half schedule in the NL.

I'll second this. Well then, go Padres. I want to see a Cub playoff game!! If the Padres are fighting for the wildcard it would be 50/50 that the Dodgers win the division and, if the Cubs make the playoffs, they would face them. -
Agreed. The Giants have one of the worst offenses in the majors.
-
Good lord, Pujols just went deep again. Second of the night and fourth since the ASB.
-
If you would have told me before the game that the final score of the Copa America final would be 3-0, I would have said Argentina won. I can't believe Brazil beat them like that without Kaka and Ronaldinho.
-
It's up to the official scorer. I think it's whoever pitched the best if the starter doesn't go 5 innings. Either Wuertz or Marmol probably deserved to get it.
-
CUBS WIN!!!
-
FINISH THEM!!!!
-
Sweet. I can't tell if you are joking. The ESPN announcers will be all over Bonds for the whole game. It's better than watching on MLB.TV with CSN.
-
Sweet.
-
A couple insurance runs would be very nice here.
-
I would love to see the Cards lose again today also.
-
YES!!!!
-
FINISH HIM!!!
-
ARam has saved the Cubs at least 3 runs defensively today with that play and the snag of the Carlos Lee line drive.
-
You got lucky there Will.
