At least it wasn't an ACL tear?

Does this mean we can get Beachey back now? Please!

No word yet on who the Yankees got to go over in exchange.

A-Rod

Supreme Olajuwon 07-25-2013 07:10 PM

It's just crazy enough to work!

ClockShot 07-25-2013 07:11 PM

Worked the first time.

ClockShot 07-25-2013 08:54 PM

Fonzie got scratched from today's game. Looks like the deal's going down.

road doggy dogg 07-25-2013 09:22 PM

Why hasn't anyone told me that there's a reliever named Billy Buckner on the Angels?! God baseball is funniest sport ever.

Bad News Gertner 07-25-2013 09:25 PM

Jays better win at least 2 out of 3.

Innovator 07-25-2013 11:01 PM

It scares me how happy Soriano coming back home makes me.

Frank Drebin 07-25-2013 11:02 PM

So Brent Lillibridge and Soriano will be starting for the Yanks. That worked very well for the Cubs this year.

Frank Drebin 07-25-2013 11:11 PM

Cody Ransom hitting cleanup tonight. Good times.

Spring Training 2015, woooooo!

Frank Drebin 07-25-2013 11:14 PM

Jose Canseco is endorsing this now:

<font color=goldenrod>lol it's so blindingly obvious that the Yankees are hoping A-Rod gets suspended before they have to bring him back. Wouldn't be surprised if A-Rod tries to file a grievance or something against them once the hammer comes down.</font>

Bad News Gertner 07-25-2013 11:35 PM

Thank you Mark Buehrle

the first time in my life the Rockies pitching is incredible and the offense is a giant trainwreck

road doggy dogg 07-26-2013 08:27 AM

It's amazing what'll happen when you're not trying to use a 4-man rotation!

Also, I thought the Rockies had like, one of the best offenses in the league this year? What happened? (I don't follow/care about the NL so I only hear about teams like the Rockies in passing)

Skippord 07-26-2013 08:35 AM

They still bizarrely won't let pitchers go over a hundred pitches most of the time like they did with the four man rotation, but fortunately 3 of the 5 have been throwing 7 innings before going over a hundred.

And with the offense my personal belief is that when Tulo and Dexter Fowler got hurt everyone but Michael Cuddyer tried to do too much and they're still in that sort of mode. So they're taking bad at bats and mostly struggling, and now Michael Cuddyer's struggling a bit. Tulo doesn't seem to be fully ready to play yet and Dexter Fowler is the streakiest hitter on the planet. Also Carlos Gonzalez while still the best hitter on the team has like 15 different minor injuries that are messing up his swing and his approach. So basically at the moment no one is performing consistently on offense besides D.J. Lemahieu for some reason.

ClockShot 07-26-2013 12:13 PM

AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

Yankees gave up some nobody a-ball pitcher for Fonzie.

Game's gonna be awesome tonight!

Innovator 07-26-2013 12:32 PM

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The Condor 07-26-2013 01:27 PM

The Hudson injury made me think back to the Big 3 in Oakland. Used to think that you could tell a lot about someone by knowing which of them they thought as the best. I always sided with the Hudson crowd.

DaveBrawl 07-26-2013 04:31 PM

I always sided with Zito, then he stabs me in the back by joining the Giants.

Supreme Olajuwon 07-26-2013 05:36 PM

As long as you didn't think it was Mulder, that ass-burglar.

RoXer 07-26-2013 07:06 PM

I dunno about any of them but I hear this Rich Harden kid is gunna be a stud

ClockShot 07-26-2013 08:40 PM

I've said once, I'll say it again.

CC Sabathia is no longer superhuman.

Keith 07-26-2013 09:33 PM

We're on our way to 1st place, baby.

On our way.

Kuroda is the Scherzer to Sabathia's Verlander this season. What is wrong with the universe!

road doggy dogg 07-26-2013 09:55 PM

I probably screwed up the analogy there. What I meant to say is, Kuroda (#2 guy) is outperforming Sabathia (#1) similarly to how Scherzer has leapfrogged JV this season. Yeah.

Turns out the Biogenisis Clinic roids scandal goes deeper than just pro and college since high school baseball prospect names also show up on the lists MLB has access to.

The Condor 07-26-2013 10:04 PM

By ahead you mean he might move first, right? You're not referring to talent I hope.

Emperor Smeat 07-26-2013 10:10 PM

No just in what's being asked for demands since the Royals are currently asking for a steep price and probably steeper than what the Phillies want from Lee.

Royals want MLB-ready talent as the basis for any deal while the Phillies probably want deals to be more prospect-based or someone willing to cover what's left of Lee's current deal.

screech 07-26-2013 10:40 PM

Would hate to see Cliff Lee get traded. Again.

Bad News Gertner 07-26-2013 11:18 PM

Edwin Encarnacion just hit 2 home runs in one inning: solo blast and a grand slam. Chrrist the Astros are terrible.

Shisen Kopf 07-26-2013 11:23 PM

Yeah, when the tigers played them, I think they out scored them 45-10 or some shit. Terrible team. Rays gonna be alone in first place after this game too. Really hope tigers vs rays in the ALCS

road doggy dogg 07-26-2013 11:35 PM

I wish there was an MLB-equivalent site to capgeek.com

Shisen Kopf 07-26-2013 11:39 PM

Imagine if MLB had a cap. Rays would be 4x champs by now.

road doggy dogg 07-26-2013 11:42 PM

Yeah I dunno if Joe Maddon is just like the greatest manager of all time or if it's the GM or what. I enjoy seeing the franchise do well, if only because I can't stand pretty much the entire AL East otherwise.

We're not 4x champs. We haven't even won ONCE.


But ya know what?


WE'RE IN FIRST PLACE, MUTHAFUCKAS!

Supreme Olajuwon 07-26-2013 11:56 PM

Keith breaking form by being a Rays fan who cares before September.

Keith 07-26-2013 11:58 PM

You said the same thing last year, Supreme "The Dream".

Supreme Olajuwon 07-27-2013 12:00 AM

I don't think I did, Keith "The Queef".
