Stanton is getting knee surgery. Out 4-6 weeks. And with that goes any hope of the NL winning the home run derby.

And the Marlins are apparently not getting a rep in the game this year as Bryce Harper has replaced him on the roster.
Michael Bourn is also in, replacing Ian Desmond. |

Sucks that the Cubs lost, but man, Rizzo is hitting the piss out of the ball.

The Mets are now 4-0 All Time when they field a completely homegrown lineup.

Seriously though I'd be more than content with a Jordany Valdespin/Scott Hairston LF platoon for the rest of the season. Valdespin is a spark plug and Hairston just has insane numbers against lefties. Much rather have them out there than Jason Bay.

Vid of Greinke's ejection for those who didn't see it. What a joke. That ump probably needs to be suspended or at least fined. Greinke wasn't even arguing, just frustrated with himself. |

Fox needs a pitch count tracker. They can sacrifice the mph flame graphic for it.

Much better night game than day game for the Red Sox today and luckily for Doubront the bullpen didn't blow it like last time he faced the Yankees (Sox blew a 9 run lead).

Don't think he should have been ejected but it was still a dumb move on Grienke's part. If that ball takes a bad bounce, he could have cost his team an extra base. It was a tie at the base anyway. Gotta give Altuve the hustle credit.

Jordany Valdespin is playing CF today. If he ends up looking even remotely competent out there I could see him being the primary CF against righties the rest of the way. Captain Kirk is brilliant defensively but he's come crashing down at the plate and has started to look vastly overmatched.

I hope Rizzo has a big game to close it out before all star break. He could be hitting .400 and carrying a 9 game hitting streak. This guy looks and feels like he's going to be one of the great Cubs ever.

Rizzo's played about 2 weeks or something, and he almost has better numbers than "The Chosen One" Bryce Harper.

I think Rizzo will win ROTY. He's eligible right? He's about to blow up today.

I asked Karl Ravech through Twitter if Rizzo was eligible for ROY and he said he wasn't sure.

Even if he is, there is no way the media isn't giving it to Harper.

Damn. 15 pitches into the game and I can already tell Niese just doesn't have it. He was due for a clunker much like Johan was.
Hopefully the Mets bats are ready to go. |

Harper will probably get more of the "on a winning team" votes.

Shane Victorino saw that he was batting 7th in the order today, he complains, and Manuel then takes him out of the lineup entirely.

It really is time for Shane to go. He's been the #1 reason by most around here for the Phillies' failures. He smiles walking off the field when his team is getting crushed and then does this shit. Looking forward to the Dom Brown return.

Reading the Phillies' message board is hilarious. So many people calling for Amaro and Manuel to be fired. Saying this next year would be one thing, but when you're having your first losing season in a decade, the first in the Amaro/Manuel era, and after 5 straight division titles it's kinda laughable.

Damn, Niese had settled down nicely after the 1st inning but that Castro HR was the death blow. Even with the Mets' never-say-die attitude I can't see them scoring at least 7 over the final 3 innings.
46-40 at the ASB. Much better than I ever could have hoped for going into the year. |

Holy shit indeed. I hope they film that clusterfuck, and I hope they pay the grounds crew triple. I can only imagine the pain in the ass and rush they will be in to get the field ready for the All-Star Game after that thing in just a day.
