I hate this Reds vs Brewers series. I want the Reds to lose badly, but the Brewers are quietly red hot and creeping up the central.

Cubs still have 16 total games left against the Reds and Cards. Maybe they're not out. They need to win every single one though lol.

Dan Haren hurt in 1st game after being traded from D'backs to L.A. Angels.
Line drive hit back to him hits his pitching arm and forces him out of the game in the 5th inning. |

I don't think that's what he was saying. I believe he was just looking for any reason to take a baseball story that does not involve the Baltimore Orioles to try to relate it to the Baltimore Orioles.

I just found it funny that the guy can go out and give up 4 hrs and 7 runs to the anemic Orioles offense that can't do shit lately and then come back 5 days later and pitch a no hitter vs a Tigers team that is much better offensively. You would think he'd pitch the no hitter vs the Orioles and get blasted by the Tigers. Its just funny how baseball works, no real explanation for it.

Big Matchup tonight. Braves and Nats.
First time we will get to see "The Phenom" Steven Strasburg vs. "The Kid" Jason Heyward. Who's ready? |

Yeah that was the biggest ripoff I have ever been a part of. What a joke. The fucking GM decided to pull him while he was warming up. How is that not the most transparent ploy for money in the history of sports

Yeah I hadn't seen Strasburg pitch yet so my friend and I decided to go "on a whim." We had no tickets and there were actually more people trying to buy then sell, but this one scalper tried to sell me two $10 standing room seats for $40 a piece. I was like fuck that and offered him $40 for both of them. Ended up paying $50. We got in right as they were announcing the lineup and the guy was like "And here's today's starting pitcher, Miguel Batista" and everyone was just like huh and I immediately started yelling to everybody that it's all a scheme and the Nationals are a fraud of an organization

But I got to see Strasburg pitch in Atlanta, so if I had gone just to see him, I'd be pretty pissed too. No way 40,000 people go to Nationals Park on a Tuesday night without SB pitching. |

The Os are on the verge of losing to the Blue Jays again, moving to 0-11 this season. I cannot find the info on when the last time a team lost a season series to another team within their own division since they started playing unbalanced schedules and playing each other 18 times a year.
Rep for someone who can find out if going 0-18 would be a record or not. Yankees went 0-12 vs the A's in 1990. |

Tigers only managed 4 wins in 19 games while both teams did end the season win-less against a club but not to a divisional team. A few clubs matched the 4 to 5 wins in 18 to 19 games but nobody tied or went worse than the Dbacks in 2004 with divisional rivals. |

The Pirates went 1-14 against the Brewers in 2008.
The Rays went 1-11 against the Yankees in 1998. The Mariners went 2-17 against the A's in 2006. The Orioles went 2-16 against the Red Sox in 2009. The Marlins went 2-11 against the Phillies in 1999. The Padres went 2-11 against the Diamondbacks in 1999. |

Cannot believe Jose Bautista is still pounding the ball. 4 homers and 9 rbi in his last 3 games.

I really wish the Yanks would just sack up and trade for Dunn. Do you realize what kind of monster they'd be unleashing on that right field fence at Yankee Stadium?
I really just want good things to happen for Adam Dunn. He's never hit in a good lineup in his entire career or played a meaningful game. Come on New York. Be cool. |

They have Konerko, but they could slide Dunn to DH and have massive power in the middle of that lineup. Speaking of the White Sox, I was at the beatdown they served the Mariners last night. |

Hey I got a question...
...I remember that back in the day, in the 90's-early 2000's, nobody in the Home Run Derby hit alot of home runs in a single round...I think the record for a while was 13 by McGwire in '99...the Home Run Derby winner would win with just 8-10 homers in each round...but nowadays, we have guys hitting 10, 15, 20 homers in a single round...and to ME, that's weird, because the 90's is a big part of what is called "The Steroid Era", and the guys everyone associates with steroids (McGwire, Sosa, Canseco, Bonds) were active...yet none of them hit as many home runs in the HR Derby as some guys do today, when supposedly the Steroid issue is being taken care of... ...why do u think this is? |

That's pretty obvious considering McGwire held the record with 13 homers in a home run friendly Fenway park, and then guys with far less prolific power started hitting 25 regularly. It was at it's worse in the early 2000s. That's probably because the balls and players were both juiced. Now it's mainly just the baseballs. |
