Roy Halladay's retired. Shame, always liked his game, but everyone gets old.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

He's the same age as AJ Burnett, Dempster, Westbrook, among others.

If I heard correctly on CNN, MLB has just banned collisions at the plate.  Catcher can only block if he has the ball, and runner must slide.

Who cares, Peter Angelos has destroyed the Orioles more than any home plate collision could.

I'd like to see Timmay repeatedly rammed at home plate.

It's always been in the rules that the catcher can't block home plate unless he has the ball (just as fielders can't block other bases without having the ball).  For some reason, that hasn't been enforce since, well, longer than I can remember.
