OT: MLB Thread

Re: OT: MLB Thread 2012

Nope. Watch some of the home run derby though. Meh....all star games are for kids.
 
Re: OT: MLB Thread 2012

I watched a few innings. Wasn't much.

Sure wish the Yankees still had Melky Cabrera though.
 
Re: OT: MLB Thread 2012

What's gonna happen when Strasburg reach 160 innings pitched and the Nats are in the run? Manager told in April he would stop...

Nat's organisation is in trouble. I mean, just insurance-wise, that was not the most brilliant statement to make earlier this year...

The could also give him more days rest between starts. The REAL problem is if they make the playoffs and he gets 3-6 more starts. Hopefully that won't happen, of course :sarcasm
 
Re: OT: MLB Thread 2012

He already have 99 innings. There is 61 left. We are at the season half. At 15-8, he's one of the reason why the Nats are where they are...
 
Re: OT: MLB Thread 2012

Your only choice is to slow him down and start skipping starts with him. Trade for another pitcher if you can to eat innings.

You might end up going past 160, but you cannot go past 180.

This kid is young and has a hell of a career in front of him. You can't risk that for 1 year. See what happened in Chicago with Kerry Wood and Mark Prior.

Pristine turn of the century baseball cards found in an Ohio attic. Quite the story:

It wasn’t until two weeks later he learned his family had come across what experts say is one of the biggest, most exciting finds in the history of sports card collecting, a discovery worth perhaps millions.

The cards are from an extremely rare series issued around 1910. Up to now, the few known to exist were in so-so condition at best, with faded images and worn edges. But the ones from the attic in the town of Defiance are nearly pristine, untouched for more than a century. The colors are vibrant, the borders crisp and white.

“It’s like finding the Mona Lisa in the attic,” Kissner said.

Sports card experts who authenticated the find say they may never again see something this impressive.

For fans of Family Guy, in the Yankees-A's game, Chris Stewart just faced A.J. Griffin.
 
Re: OT: MLB Thread 2012

Hair, did I read correctly...the Yankees got swept by the A's in a 4 game series?
 
Re: OT: MLB Thread 2012

Just for Xpirefan, when we were in Montreal last week, Contessa saw Expo jerseys for sale, she asked why are they selling them, the team doesn't even exist.

I almost bought a Dawson tshirt but said nah, so I bought Gorges instead.

I was waiting for your call, but it never came. :smilewinkgrin:

Actually you see more Expos gear around now than in the last years' of the team's existence.
 
Re: OT: MLB Thread 2012

probably, all the retro stuff, but I was shocked at how much Blue Jay stuff I saw for sale, are they now Quebec's team too?
