Typical f**king Yankees loss lately.  Great pitching from Rasner (first time since his fifth start), but they blow it because they can't field and they can't run the bases.  Golden sombrero (4 K's) for Giambi, two errors for Damon, and A-Rod got nailed at second base in the ninth.  GREAT.

Also, I laughed when I saw that the Yankees currently have CARL PAVANO penciled into the starter spot vacated by Kennedy.  I wonder if he'll actually play again...


Of course, Pavano came up lame again so it looks like it's Hughes to the rescue, ready or not.  Because if he's not ready, I think Kei Igawa is the only option and nobody wants that.  Not even Igawa's mother.

Can you believe that Albert Pujols has been leading the league in hitting this year while getting less pitches to hit than any other hitter in baseball?  Oh, and he's been doing it with only one elbow.

Just for fun, my World Series prediction: Dodgers over Twins in six.  I dunno why, it's just what I'm feeling.

A little late on this but.....Pittsburgh tied the streak of 16 straight sub .500 seasons. I wonder if Vegas is offering odds on the record breaking 17th season?

It's tough being a Pirate fan these days.

I wonder if Barry would want to come back for one last season?

Nah. They'd be better off bringing back Bonilla.

If by "these days" you mean the last sixteen years....

I don't want to say anything to jinx the Dodgers.

The Pirates sweep the Cards this weekend. Why couldn't they play like this all year?

The Brew Crew, in what can only be called a brash and irrational action, fired manager Ned Yost today and replaced him with the third base coach.

Hey their 3rd base coach was a fine utility player in his time.

So RileyDog.  Were you the guy that ESPN was showing this weekend who caught home run balls in back to back games? Wink  If so, you really need to work on your dance moves.
 
Sad day for baseball that Yankee Stadium is closing.  I am also sad that I never had a chance to go to a game there.

I have season tickets in the bleachers at the Tigers games.  Best seats in the house in my opinion.

The Cubs clinch it against the Cards. Talk about rubbing salt in the wound.
