			Woooooooooooo. International signing period starts today. As expected, the Yankees get their man by signing Gary Sanchez. But the big target out there is now Cuban defect Aroldlis Chapman. |

			Another trade. Cubs aquire Jeff Baker from the Rockies in exchange for Alberto Alberquerque. To make room, Cubs DFA Ryan Freel. |

			Mets come all the way back from a 5-0 deficit with a spirited rally in their anemic lineup...lead the Pirates 8-6, and K-Rod gives up a 2 run HR to Adam LaRoche before even getting an out, and they only have one pitcher left in the bullpen after this. Fuck.   |

			Seriously, people need to stop pitching to Albert Pujols.  Walking him with the bases loaded is a smarter move than letting him hit a grand slam.  He needs to start getting the Bonds treatment.

			As smart of a move as it is to walk Pujols...I really would be pissed if he got the Bonds treatment.    He's way too much fun to watch hit.  If people keep pitching to him I bet he'll get over 61 HR, which would make him the new single season home run record holder. |

			Mark HgHgwire and Barry "I changed my workout regime after leaving Pittsburgh" Bonds would disagree with that 61 mark, Vito.

 Anyway, I know we discussed this on Memorial Day, but fuck those red hats. Last year's dark blue ones were at least a neutral color that didn't look totally retarded on most teams. Seeing the Mets play in Philly with those made me think the whole team got traded. | |

			I'd be hesitant to call Pujols the new home run king if he surpasses 61 this year.  There's no guarantee he's clean, and his personal trainer does have ties to HGH (mentioned by Jason Grimsley in 2006 as a guy who hooked him up).

			Took us 12 but we beat the great Halladay. Hope this injury with Wang isn't serious. He was having a pretty good game. Also, thanks Seattle. |

			Wang to the DL.    Girardi says Hughes ain't gonna fill the spot, but names going around are Aceves, Mitre, or Albaladejo. |

 I don't really understand since Hughes needs innings this year and there is an open spot in the rotation. They should stretch him out and put him back in the rotation. I really hope it doesn't turn into Joba version 2 with Hughes. | |

			Maybe they will go with Aceves after today. 4 innings of 1 hit ball so he got stretched out a bit.
