Great idea BILL ~

Anyone wanna bet who sinks first...my state or my team?

Hi Guys,
Padres are here and we are in 'another' rain delay, they may end up playing a night game afterall.

Boston's focus is back on baseball after all the craziness. Still in a tight race for the top of Al East.

Clydegirl so sorry about Pujols, that stinks, but a clean break is better than a stubborn sprain, torn tendon etc. Hopefully the break will heal fast and be done.
Our DL seems to be growing too. :(

Enjoy your games everyone :corn:

Cards released Batista today.

Now they need to get rid of some of the others in that bullpen that are useless.

Well dang!

Yeah we miss Albert.

"Tie goes to the runner" - or whatever. So your Dodgers sank first. Or so the, presumably prejudiced, East Coast news is declaring.

And to break the heart of so, so many lovers of baseball, the largest unsecured creditor is Manny, for $20 Million.

Here's an idea: I pledge $100 via PayPal toward buying the team at auction, provided you collect the pledges from all of us on the 3FC baseball thread and handle the details. Not sure that I'd be a very good manager of baseball, myself.

BILL that Manny being Manny thing will just not die.....

bankrupt at the bank and the pitching rotation....

I'm watching game 1 of the College World Series.

What a fun game. Some great plays at the plate.

Great pitching and defence.

Yeah the Dodgers may be in court but after last nights game I'm thinking the Twins need to do something different. I'm going with that we wanted the Dodgers to feel better about themselves last night?!?! UGLY!!

Oh, I am new and if I'm not suppose to be here let me know. Just a huge baseball fan so this thread seemed interesting.

Welcome Redhead, the more the merrier.

It's been a bit quiet here recently.

Twins fan ouch. So many injuries for you guys this year.

At one time we had the best DL in the MLB!!! OK, not a good thing to brag about but a girls got to think on the bright side. It was getting better and than........our pitchers went on vacation...ugh.

Where's all my baseball friends?

Going to Busch Stadium tonight. Cards and Reds.

I am here. Just a bit down :(

I have been following my boys since I was 9 years old...listening on the radio with my dad as a child....

I don't ever remember a team I have been prouder of....

what they have gone through with their:p owner :p and the fans...

I can't recall seeing so many games lost on one pitch or one inning...

15 runs scored one night....0 for the next three...1 and 2 run losses mount like crazy...

and through it all my guys have said the right things...and keep plugging along....

this is a group of classy young men.....

Cards win 8-1.

Berkman hit a monster home run tonight, 452 feet. Longest ever at this stadium.

(((Gary))) they all have bad games. I think as a team they are handling themselves very well. It can't be easy with all the carry on.

Hats off to Derek Jeter and to all the Yankees on the ocassion of his historic 3000th hit.




[With admiration from a die hard Red Sox fan.]

This guy Jeter must play for a team I pay no attention to.....








why oh why couldn't he have been a DODGER?

Congrats to Jeter on 3,000 hits.

Jeter had 3 more hits today than my DODGERS...

but we won since those padres had only 1

So are the Padres going to be selling?

I think Heath Bell will be too expensive for a short term rental.

Who else could we get?

PROOF once again NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED!

So who's watching the All Star Game?

I was but I handed the remote over to my wife...not watching now :D

it's Pawn Stars....

and besides I saw Kemp score and get a hit...Ethier single in a run and get thrown out...and Kershaw get 'em out 1-2-3...

so it's all good

:carrot: for the NATIONAL LEAGUE...

I watched most of the game...after my boys were done I handed the remote to Angie then just checked in during commercials of Pawn Stars and Pickers.

oh, there was something else....:chin:

:goodvibes oh yeah.....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY :bday2you:

BIG BIRD! :hug:

Thank you Gary.

Well so far I got my Berkman shirt and some Cardinal's earrings :)

Home field advantage yeah.

Isn't Pawn Stars such a good show?...and the history of some items is so cool! I plan to visit their store next time I go to Vegas.

Maybe good deeds do pay off after all!

That is so awesome.

Have you watched "American Pickers"? It's really good.

I have....and if you read my birthday post to you you would have seen that! ;)



love it too!

Whoops the balloons and candles distracted me.

And I suppose you always look at the check first instead of the warm gushy words written in the card too.....:D

Absolutely :D

I'm closing this and making a new one for the second half of the season.
