MLB 2012: Could It Have Been Anymore Gay

[beave]

well they're the nearest team to me and yeah tbs coverage helped. i bailed on baseball during the strike so i missed the andruw jones era.

[Sweet Gregory Pectin]

didn't even bother to iron his jersey

jewels, SVC - hope you guys enjoyed watching a true bullpen at work tonight

[VHGisdead]

why are you a braves fan? TBS?

actually my braves fanhood is probably like the least questionable of my allegiances.

is it TBS though? or did you just like andruw jones or something

what are these questions

the dude is from Mississippi

Really I'm just glad to see Halladay picking up where he left off.

[VHGisdead]

so are the braves going to pull off this dumbshit trade or what

that's not fair, Carlos Gomez is a real home run threat up there, could happen to anyone

[Spoilt Victorian Child]

Some great stuff in here:

The last-place Phillies were 0-42 when trailing after eight innings before coming back against Rodriguez, who replaced John Axford as the closer last week.

Joe Savery (1-2) pitched a scoreless ninth for the win. It was the first time in 18 tries that the Phillies won a game Savery appeared in.

I have to say it is slightly less satisfying to beat K-Rod now that he is a broken shell of a man.

my team is storied as fuck

I went to the game last night and never in my life have I seen so many line drive outs by the Cardinals in one game. Absolute laser beams by Holliday and Berkman and 3 out of the 4 were outs. The one Berkman hit in the ninth, Ethier didn't even have to move.

We should have won 9-5!

[Amblin]

billingsley is bearded and back with a vengeance

[Spoilt Victorian Child]

Christ, how lucky are the Braves if Dempster 10-5s this deal?

[nonoperational]

billingsley is bearded and back with a vengeance

It's my luck that he goes what, 0-5, then goes on the DL so I drop him from my fantasy team. Comes back against the Cards and gets the win. Figures

[Amblin]

I would say the Dodgers coming on with the run support for a change could be key, but one of those starts near the beginning of that 0-5 run he gave up something like 5 or 6 runs and tied up the game. So even with some cushion he still just has these awful innings, usually when the order comes back around for the opposing team.

Maybe the time off, a new rotation spot, not shaving... who knows.

[nonoperational]

I'm really excited for Krenshaw to come in and shut us out tonight too. Should be fun.

[the genius king]

Just for the hell of it. If the season ended tomorrow:

Yankees
Detroit
Texas
WC1:Angels
WC2: O's, White Sox, A's.

Nats
Reds
Giants
WC1:Pirates
WC2: Dodgers, Braves.

This is a situation where the 2nd Wild Card can really screw the Angels, who are two games better than the three 2nd WC teams, but would still have to play what is essentially a coin-flip one game playoff.

[clown]

I hope there are 4 teams tied for the last 2 two WC spots

would love to see Selig fuck that up because there's literally no shot he figures out the right way to sort it out

[VHGisdead]

optimism slightly elevated about the Dempster deal falling through

[Amblin]

attn Braves fans:

Ryan Dempster hates you but loves the beach, the most beautiful women on earth and Vincent E. Scully

[Amblin]

how did i let you beat me by four minutes

Yes, the Marlins are about to go through yet another violent upheaval, though with a different motivation than in the past.

Monday’s trade — right-hander Anibal Sanchez and infielder Omar Infante to the Tigers for right-hander Jacob Turner, catcher Rob Brantly and left-hander Brian Flynn, along with an exchange of competitive-balance picks — was not the start of a fire sale.

It actually was worse — an admission by the Marlins that they didn’t know what they were doing last winter.

The Marlins did not trade Sanchez and Infante for payroll reasons, though they will save about $4 million this season and $4 million the next. No, they made the deal because they’re disgusted by their underachieving team, and want to try something different.

Again.

good thing they're stuck with Ozzie Guillen at least, right????!!!!

[Robo-Chachi]

Of course the Royals sign Jason Kendall.

And Jason Kendell retires.

[seriesfinale]

The only question now is whether his Cooperstown bust will bear a Royals, Brewers, or Pirates cap

[shark week]

Of course the Royals sign Jason Kendall.

And Jason Kendell retires.

i have his autographed rookie card. i guess if i act fast i can sell high

[seriesfinale]

Here's what they'll be modeling it after
