:lol:  I figured Rzepczynski was a weirdo.

According to Wiki his nickname is "Scrabble." :lol:
Yep!  Best nickname on the team.  Chicken is Cody Allen.  The rest are pretty easy to decipher.

Woman sustained life threatening injuries when hit in the face with a broken bat at Fenway park on Saturday. :(

They say you could hear her screams over the radio. Thankfully, she is now in serious, but stable condition.
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.

They're probably going to need to extend the net-- there's a lot of that happening these days.  As much as I'd like to catch a game-used bat, that's a lot of risk.

Well, it seems Apple will pitch n to help Brandon Moss get his home run ball back. :rolleyes:

I hope they give Rzepczynski the lube, though. :P

Yeah, because we definitely need to give pampered professional athletes even more free stuff :rolleyes: 

I guess the lube can come from Tim Cook's personal stash :ph34r:

Btw, Kershaw's pitching Saturday night was absolutely insane.  Not sure the last time I saw that much movement on a curve, pitch after pitch.  Cardinals were lucky to get that one hit off him.

QuoteST. LOUIS -- The St. Louis Cardinals confirmed Tuesday that they are under federal investigation to determine if members of their front office hacked into the Houston Astros' internal database.

"The St. Louis Cardinals are aware of the investigation into the security breach of the Houston Astros' database," the team said in a statement. "The team has fully cooperated with the investigation and will continue to do so. Given that this is an ongoing federal investigation, it is not appropriate for us to comment further."

The FBI and the Justice Department uncovered evidence that front-office officials for the Cardinals hacked into the internal networks of the Astros to potentially steal information, as first reported by the New York Times.

Pretty troubling.  Hopefully it was just one or two lower level employees that did it.  It's not like it was some sophisticated hack.  Apparently Lunhow re-used the same password(s) at Houston that he used in St. Louis.

They didn't give him the lube.  Bastards.  The starters are holding Lindor's first hit ball for a Samsung ransom.  And Scrabble's lube.  Hahahaha :lol:  http://www.foxsports.com/buzzer/story/cleveland-indians-ransom-francisco-lindor-first-hit-samsung-061515

Yeah, this is bad news.  The club needs to cut out anyone involved, and quick.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Why the Astros?

I think Spicey's post answers that one.
