I remember something similar "leaking" when the Mitchell Report came out, and they got like 5 names right. It's not all that hard to come up with a list of guys who you could see juicing, and there are way too many big names on that list for me to believe.

And trades keep on coming.
Yankees aquire Eric Hinske from the Pirates for right-hander Casey Erickson and outfielder Eric Fryer. In addition, the Pirates will give the Yankees cash. So my Bronx Brothers, what say you? |

Pirates also make a deal with the Nationals.
Sending Nyjer Morgan and Sean Burnett in exchange for Lastings Milledge and Joel Hanrahan. |

Good move for the Yanks...didnt give up much and essentially replace Nady. Hinske is an alright bench bat and can play first. |

Nyjer Morgan isn't a very good player, and Burnett's an meh reliever. Milledge is still young enough to have potential, which is more than you can say for Morgan. Hanrahan's got good stuff but it looks like he lost his control this year...a change of scenery probably does him good.

Morgan's pretty good I think...much older than Milledge though and he played hockey before starting baseball so he could be pretty beaten down.
I remember being really depressed when the Mets traded Milledge for Church and Schneider. Church and Schneider have been pretty meh...but I'm glad that headcase Milledge is gone. |

Milledge... blech
Hanrahan... who? Morgan is a good OF with decent speed, and Burnett is average at best. Pirates trade average for well below. AGAIN! Proof positive that the Pirates front office is a case of "meet the new boss, same as the old boss." Hinske's a journeyman (how else would he have come to the Pirates?), and I don't have any idea about Erickson or Fryer. Anyone fill me in? |

Fernando Martinez just dug up a divet in the outfield, doing a prat fall and giving the Brewers a gift double. I seriously can't believe this.

Vito, that error filled inside the park grand slam pretty much summed up the way our season is going. I couldn't help but laugh because it has become so bad.

Ryan Braun up with the bases loaded against Johan Santana. After stupidly flailing at the first two pitches of the at-bat and barely fouling them off, he sends another low one into deep left over the head of Sheffield and off the wall. Pitcher Mike Burns scores from third, Corey Hart scores from second, and J.J. Hardy scores from first after the throw home gets away from the catcher. Braun takes a huge turn around third when he sees the ball get away and is stuck in no man's land. Santana (backing up home plate on the throw) fires the ball over to third to try to get Braun, but the ball sails over David Wright into left field and Braun scores easily.
Actually a double and an error, but essentially a Little League grand slam, where you just keep running while the other team throws the ball around the diamond. I am sure the play will be on SportsCenter (as well as F-Mart falling down in center two batters before). |

The Orioles were down 10-1 to the Red Sox in the 7th inning and have managed to make it 10-9 with 2 on and 1 out in the 8th and Papelbon coming in for the 5 out save.
This could quite possibly be one of the greatest comebacks I have ever witnessed. Markakis triple off Papelbon! O's up 11-10! Amazing! Last edited by Droford; 06-30-2009 at 11:21 PM. |

It looks like the battle between Clemens and McNamee is coming to a close.
Texas judge affirmed his decision to toss most of the claims in Clemens' anit-defamation suit against McNamee. McNamee is gonna file his own against Clemens in the near future. |

I don't think the Mets should be written off just yet. You have 1/2 of your infield, 2/5 of your rotation, your CF, and your 8th inning guy on the DL (4 of them All Stars). And yet you're only 3 games out of 1st. In the past 5 games you've had 4 different guys batting leadoff.
Plus it looks like this is the most wide open NL Wild Card race there has been since it started in 95. Look at the teams in front of the Mets. The Giants, Rockies, Marlins, and Reds are all super young teams with a ton of question marks and very little knowledge about winning in September or October. And the Cardinals always look impressive but they often don't hit their stride. The Mets could very easily overtake all of them and the Phillies once they're healthy. So buck up, buckaroo. |

It's amazing the Mets are still in a race the way they are playing. If the Phillies turned it on, there wouldn't be a race in September

Gallardo strikes out 12 Mets and loses, 1-0. That's Santana-like right there.

The Pirates won that deal if Milledge gets his shit together. It was well worth the risk. Hanrahan could be a closer too. Nats had him as theirs this year but he failed. If he slides into the 8th inning spot as a set up man this and next year (and does well) the Bucs suddenly only have to play 7 innings. I think Pittsburgh has made some wise moves this year.
