We won the series against the Reds :)

Albert pulled a hammy. That's OK we have Berkman who can play first. Great pick-up right there, so far anyway.

Day off today.

Who's on First?
 

OK, Gary, it's time to explain stuff to those of us way over here on the East Coast.

Bud Selig says that Tom Schieffer now runs the Dodgers.

Don Mattingly says that doesn't change anything because he runs the Dodgers, and he only takes orders from Ned Colletti.

Jamie McCourt thinks she runs half of the Dodgers.

Like the original Bud [Abbot] asked, "Who's on First?"

Tony LaRussa's daughter is on the Raiders' cheerleader squad.

She obviously takes after her mother :)

Oi. Colby Lewis let Toronto get a grand slam on him last night. We had serious issues with Toronto last year so I hope it was just a fluke. The upside to the weekend is we swept the Kansas City.

Now, off to see if I can rearrange my schedule enough this summer to make a trip to a Rangers game with the DH. :D

That was a bit too close for comfort.

We have bullpen troubles.

Cool! And I've been MIA for awhile. Just wanted to let you know that I'm still around. Just insanely busy. Work and running around to little league games. :D

OK TEAM...

I was in Los Angeles all week...within 5 miles of Dodger Stadium...building a mercedes benz dealership...ran over and offered to buy the TEAM....

but did the fuhgidabowdit since they didn't have change for my $20.....

it's a struggle right now but at least my LAKERS are looking superbly mediocre!

25th anniversary of Roger Clemens record breaking 20 strike out game.
Very sad that he ruined himself, and his image with stupid steroids...

Hi everyone...

enjoy the games :corn:

Ok, I seriously have NO problem...OK..just a little problem with the steroids (so many were doing it)...but I have MAJOR...MAJOR problems with the lies and denials!

The thing about steroids is, they're against the rules. Just because you do or don't get caught doesn't make it right. (Forgive any double/triple negatives ;) ) For the league to turn a blind eye to the use is a slap in the face to those that follow.

Sure, if they want to make it allowed, then it opens up use for everyone equally. Though I wouldn't particularly be impressed by that move.

You tried Gary, that's all you can do :D

Cards win in extra innings.

These last few games have been very stressful.

We have a young guy in the bullpen brought up from AAA due to injury. He's been very impressive so far. Sanchez, looks like he has a good future ahead of him.

I sure missed a good game last night with that win over those padres...nephew took a girl to the game and filled me in on the what-ups....

I could have watched it on TV but I had other plans!

Yay for a Red Sox win.

Yay for Minnesota and the NY Mets so that The Nation isn't at the bottom.

I'm worried. Jimenez is just not in sync. I hope he can work his way out of it! Keep plugging away, Rockies.

Fantasy Results

1. Diane 35 wins
2. MuffinTop 34 wins
3. Clyde 28 wins
3. NYGiants 28 wins
3. SteppinOut 28 wins
6. Manders 27 wins
7. Shannon 26 wins
8. Bill 24 wins
8. Caroline 24 wins
8. Gary 24 wins

Diane in first place. You're always up there Diane :p

Shannon 3 good games against you guys.

David Freese on the DL again with a broken bone in his hand after being hit by a pitch. This guy has the worst luck.

We now have 4 games against the Marlins at home :)

Minor correction to the alphabetizing:

Jeez. Ranger's pitching has been shaky as of late. Harrison definitely had some issues last night and could barely get an out in two innings. :o

I hope they can get their starting pitchers all ironed out then Josh Hamilton and Neftali Feliz back in the rotation. We're now tied with the Angels for first place and seriously need to kick things into gear.

:p

Question should you bottom 3 ;) be in tenth place?

Or is eighth correct?

I'm never sure how to do these things.

I think you have it correct that they're tied for 8th as that's the position they're currently wrangling for. :) If they're fighting over 10th, it means 8th and 9th are occupied.

Now, I wouldn't know how to mark it if say two people were tied for 8th and two tied for the next rank. But that's why I'm not scorekeeper. :D

If two people are tied for 8th (and tied for 9th as well), then the next two people are tied for 10th (and 11th).

Trust me, I learned this on the Internet.

Ah yes. That trustworthy internet. ;)

That does make sense though. So you'd have:

8. Person 1
8. Person 2
10. Person 3
10. Person 4

Seems legit. :D

Going to the game tonight against the Marlins.

Hoping for a win for Carp.

Don't expect Gary anytime soon. You gotta hang 'alotta board to make his share of the $8.25 Million payroll of the Los Angeles Dodgers, which is gone missing.

At Fenway Park, they probably make that much on the beer concession each game, LOL.

Lance Berkman is on fire.

I love the way he plays.

Won today against the Fish.

We had a late night last night at the ballpark. A good series against the Marlins, 2 wins each.

:( I demand a re-count! :(

Heck I'd work for slightly less than a million for one year in the majors....if I did get a hit (eyes closed of course...who in the hedoubleLL wants to see a 100 mile an hour slider....) not sure I could run the 90 feet to first w/o a beer break....

It's about time!!
 

I second that thought, "It's about time!!"

Going to the game today.

It will be a hot one. Got my sunscreen, cap and sunglasses.

Got to get a win today :)

Gosh, I'm so glad the Rockies are coming home. Maybe they can re-learn how to hit. The Giants are always tough for us. Mets are coming to town now.

Fantasy Results

10. Gary 29 wins :sorry:

Maybe you should follow the Cards.

Never a dull moment especially when the bullpen comes in. We don't even have a proper closer.

Rockies had a rain delay last night too. I was disappointed this morning to see that they lost. Come on! Where are our bats?????

We lost in extra innings to the Jays, but we'll get them tonight, at least it won't be a rainout.
Playing Yanks this weekend... Always intense games, I'd love to see Sox get over .500. for the first time this season.
Enjoy your games :corn:

OT: finally bought a newer car 05 honda accord ex, 50k miles, yay me !

Always good to win the series against the Cubs.

Now on to Cincy.
