Eric Byrnes' playing career is apparently over for the time being as the Mets have hired him to be a Media Relations guy for the Single A Brooklyn Cyclones.
I'm guessing he has an out in his contract or something in the event that a team wanted to sign him for some reason, but still pretty funny. |

The Serrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgio Mitre Experiment begins again in Detroit today. This should be good for a laugh.
But I kinda like to see Ajax in action. See if he really is the reincarnation of Bernie Williams. |

I'll always remember Eric Byrnes and Miguel Tejada fucking up a huge inning and pretty much the series with thier bonehead baserunning mistakes against the Sox. The picture of Byrnes tumbling over Veritek, limping around, arguing with the ump while not touching home and then getting tagged out is priceless. Then I don't know wtf Tejada was thinking standing around between 3rd and home while he's about to be tagged out. One of those innings I'll never forget.
Much like a week and a half later when Aaaron Boone sent one out of Yankee Stadium ![]() |

Just read that Ivan Nova is on his way into Detroit. Heard nothing but great things about him down on the farm.

Wish they would have had Nova pitch in Pettitte's spot instead of Mitre. At least Nova is stretched out as a starter, I'm guessing Mitre can go 4-5 innings tops since he's been in the pen and had week long stretches of not being used.

Its kinda funny because in that interview the other week it was brought up that they don't do much talking in the 209, but all Braden's been talking about (before the perfect game) was A-Rod and how disrespectful he is. |

I can't believe I never noticed until tonight that Pittsburgh's roster is a bunch of former top prospects that were busts for their old team. Milledge, Clement, the Laroches, Hanrahan. Surprised they didn't go after Austin Kearns or Angel Berroa for veteran leadership.

AJ Hinch has no lefties in his bullpen. I think he might be slightly mentally retarded.

Hell Fucking Yes. There is a Baseball God. I don't even care if we lose...that's a worthwhile lineup. |

Wow, what bullshit. The Jays/Phillies series has been moved to Philadelphia due to security concerns in Toronto over the G20 summit.
I can understand moving it to a neutral place...but moving it to the road teams CITY? Literally just handed the Phils 3 extra home games. Must suck for Jays fans hoping to see the return of Halladay. |

And that means the DH will be used in a National League park. Nice try Selig, but you've fooled NO ONE

Really sucks for the Jays since they have the 2nd smallest gate so far this season and they would've easily had 120,000 for the series.

Juan Miranda took the SWB shuttle to Detroit today. Probably gonna be the DH. Al Aceves to the DL, AND Vazques starts today. Gonna be a good night.

They need to make Winn the left fielder and have Thames and Miranda platoon in the DH spot while Nick and Granderson are out. Having Winn the everyday LF isn't ideal but I honestly can't deal with seeing Thames out there anymore. He is one of the worst fielders I've seen.
A Thames/Miranda platoon isn't too bad since Thames hits lefties and Miranda hits righties well. They need to find some consistency with the lineup until some guys get back. It'd be nice to see an everyday lineup of Gardner-Jeter-Tex-ARod-Cano-Swisher-Posada-Thames/Miranda-Winn while guys are out. I like Swisher more towards the middle of the lineup than the 2 spot. Especially since he's raking right now. |

Thames in LF. Yeah, I still don't know which was worse on Sunday night. Burnett's pitching, or Marcus' fielding.

The Blue Jays I'm sure want to get some revenue, and if you put those games anywhere else not as many people are going to go.
With that said I think I prefer the netural site, because this feel like this could bring Bad Karma. |

Dan Haren has gotten the 1st 9 outs of this game vs. the Bums via the strikeout. Manny had a single. That's it.

Mets put up a 6-run 8th inning for a come from behind win against the Nats.
Ike Davis ended the game by going over the railing to the Mets dugout to make the catch. 3rd time he's gone over the railing for a catch in his brief big league career. |
