SF Giants wins 2nd World Series in 3 years, sweeps Detroit Tigers. Sandoval MVP.

Hamilton has the ballpark, the motivation(contract year) and the lineup to do it. The only drawback is his propensity to get hurt. Kemp lacks the ballpark, the lineup and already got paid(having no impact whatsoever) but seems to be peaking in his career.

Carlos Zambrano for Chris Volstad is starting to look damn good for the Marlins.

If Josh Johnson was actually pitching like an ace (ar even close to that level) I'd argue to say Miami has the best rotation in the league. They are actually 2nd in starters ERA if you take out JJ. That Nationals rotation is pretty damn sick though.

[QUOTE="JohnBean42"] I haven't watched him yet, but he sounds like he plays the same way as Brett Lawrie: all out hustle. Which is good.JohnBean42

I've got MLB Gameday audio. Might have to start listening to some Nationals games.

It's around $20 (US) a year, and, unlike the MLB.TV service, no blackout restrictions.

Tough lose for the Jays. I like Farrell, he calls his own game that's for sure. I liked his 5 man infield. Too bad Inge had to come through with the Granny.

I'm not sure if what Hamilton did last night itself or the fact that right now. a good 30 games into the season, Josh Hamilton leads the MAJORS in all 3 triple crown catagories.

Little kid says "GTFO Girardi" X360PS3AMD05

I read that the kid already had a ball from Girardi and was tossing (or trying to anyway) it to another kid.

That, or he realized that Girardi used to play for the Cubs. "get you ball outta here, I don't want your excess curse rubbing off on us!"

Jays need to start hitting and getting better performances from their pen.

12th in the AL in Avg - .238

9.28 era in 9th inning and later.

=

4th AL East. 16-14 record

-

They get better in those categories, they can start to gain and lead their division.

My god the Red Sox suck so much this season.

I haven't watched him pitch, but what is wrong with Buchholz? Has he just....lost it?

They can still win this game.

EDIT: And they lose. Can't score with 2, on none out.

Yankee fans learning that the 9th can, yes, be very stressful and disheartening.

Jays sign Guerrero to minor-league deal.

I like it. Hit .290 with 13 HR last year. See what he's got left. If he plays well, it's a good DH off the bench, rather than Francisco.

^^ I like it as well. I think he will play well. He loved his time here in Canada back in his Expos days. I know he never wanted to leave. It was only the move to Wash. that made him go elsewhere. He should add a lot of much needed veteran experience they need right now. I think all he needs is a drop in weight in the bat, and he could be great again. He just seemed to have a slower than normal bat speed for him. Especially the way he swings.

-

As for the Yanks. I am much more comfortable with Robertson with the game on the line than Soriano. I don't like his stuff at all. I knew this was going to be the way things went with him when we signed him. Maybe throwing Hughes back to the pen with Pettitte coming back? Phil has pen stuff, imo.

Yanks really missing Gardner.

http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/7915369/major-league-baseball-poised-pick-1st-3rd-trick-move Not sure what I think of this, but Logan's reason of "us lefties can't do it!" isn't a good reason to ban it.Ring_of_fire

Righties can't do that nifty step move to first that lefties can. They should make lefties spin in a full circle before throwing to first to make it fair.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Colby Lewis dominates with 12 strikeouts, giving up only 5 hits and 1 walk in 7 innings. Fantastic start... except all 5 hits were homeruns. What a bizarre stat line. I love you, baseball.

I know is hyperbole, but Robertson ain't leap and bounds over Soriano. I personally think that Soriano is a POS, but he has been a successful closer in the AL East before. But yeah, this isn't a vote of confidence by Girardi. Master_Live

Chris Sale rejoins White Sox rotation

Say it ain't so?

Jesus christ, Josh Hamilton is a BEAAAAST. I hope he hits 62 and breaks Maris' record. I'm a Yankees fan btw, but Skip Bayless said it best on thursday. He could've been the GREATEST player of all time." I kind of agree. If he played at this level, without the drugs, he very well could have been. TonyDanzaFan

I'm pretty sure Maris' record has already been beaten.

Axford's streak ends at 49 because of an error and a failure by him to pick up a ball, one of the worst games I've ever watched yet the Brewers won.

And knowing the time he played in Maris was probably on amphetimines. And McGwire never cheated.

One could, then, argue that 60 is still the real record as Marris had more games in the season. But in reality, it is not. Neither is 61.Ring_of_fire

Came to say this. All records should have an *. Different eras, different records. I still am of the opinion that Ruth is the true King. Maris had 50 more ABs in '67 than Ruth did in '27. Though Bonds hit 73 with 64 less ABs than Ruth, ball parks were smaller and he was using PEDs. Not illegal in the league, just illegal to Babe.

Hot Shot Harper needed stitches to close cut over eye after slamming bat against wall and having it hit back. Luck runs out Hot Shot. Could have been a career ender.

The worst I've done when frustrated in sports was sledgehammer a basketball into the floor at too great an angle and had it come back and get me. Had a friend brake his throwing hand during a final in a baseball tourney out of country.

Bautista has 3 HR in two games. Mind you, it's Target Field, his favorite road ball park (10 HR, .360 hitter there in 10 games). Also an opposite field hit. Hopefully, it's a sign of things to come.

And Janssen has been great as a closer. 2 straight 1-2-3 9th innings. Why mess with it when Santos comes back if he keeps it up? I know it's only 2 apperences...but he's been the best we've had so far....hell, I don't remember the last 1-2-3 9th. So it's a nice change, to say the least.
