oh jeez like they were there ever thaaaaat bad. More like a bottom middle team.
I mean really, it's not like the nats of just a few years ago
One pundit actually said they would have 130 losses this one year. I'd love to see a team suck that bad!

And yeah quite a slugfest but Hughes was off today. Yanks still won the series.
Sweeps are cool but win 2 out of every 3 and that'll be alot of wins

Indeed.

Damn, the Tigers are getting spanked by the fighting Showalters.

That is cool.  It sounded like the crowd was really into the game from the get go.  Our announcers were saying that the Orioles had the best record in the East since Showalter was hired, so there is hope.  It would be nice to see the Orioles be competitive in the East this year. 

Girardi has a rep for "over managing" games. While I think that is mostly a created issue, he did over manage today.

CC had a 2 hitter through 7, and allowed no runs. Only at 100 pitches.
Took him out???
For anyone who doesn't know CC is a workhorse. He goes into the 120s and 130s all the time, with no issue. No pitch counts, he just goes. Kinda like Charlie Sheen. Was stupid to take him out.

And they did it without their big bat Bautista in the lineup.

Jays won 5-3 last night, but I'm concerned about Yunel Escobar.  Stretching a double into a triple, he collided with the thrid baseman's knee, and he may have a concussion. 

Take Me Out To The Ballgame

Red Sox 0 and 6?

(But make that 1000X bigger)

Hope it maintains. I am a bit worried, the Sox have been on poor streaks before and playing the Yankees "woke" them up. Hope we keep em down
Edit: If they do end up getting their mojo back it won't so much be their doing but Phil Hughes' instead.
Yanks are hitting but he keeps giving out runs like cracker jacks.

Jays lost yesterday.  No offense but the pitching was good on both sides.  They've won their first 2 series, and now we face Vernon Wells and his new team on the west coast.
