I just want to be in the room with her.    I'd behave.

Reds need to find some offense or they're tucked.  Sure their pitching is great right now but with run production like this they'll get swept in the divisional series like they did 2 years ago.

Anyway the Cards need to find a way to beat Atlanta.

What I'm counting on.

The Orioles plane caught fire and had to make an emergency landing:

So, if they all had died, I know there's a procedure in place to draft a replacement team from the remaining 29 teams. Does that happen immediately? Held off to the end of the season?

Interesting angle from Jim Caple at ESPN.

He has a good point. However, had they won and the yankees lost, they would have 2 games to get to round 2, now they just have 1. Hopefully they pull it out, nothing against the rangers but they aren't playing good ball down the stretch.

Initially I liked the new playoff format, but now that it is here...getting knocked out of the playoffs in 1 game is harsh...

Call up the entire Norfolk Tides from Triple-A to kick your ass for even thinking that.

Yeah.  Is that how Tim's mind works when the Red Sox are doing so shitty?

But they would have had to win them both, instead of just one.

EDIT: Wait nevermind.  The first wouldn't be  a playoff game, just a positioning game to decide if they were wildcard or division winner.

In news about me, I was in two fantasy baseball leagues this year (EUOT and the Bethesda forums) and I won them both.

Pirates finish with best result since 1992, but still negative. Still, the fans gave A.J. Burnett and McCutchen standing ovations when they were taken out of the game.

Oh, and it was also Chipper Jones' last regular season game.

1st triple crown winner in 45 years.
Almost had two Cabreras winning the batting titles. Instead Buster Posey won it for Gints.

In LFBBL news, we're still waiting on an even number of teams to begin our draft.

[The Minsky Moment]

1st triple crown winner in 45 years.

And the first since the 69 expansion.   Winning it in 14 team league is an extraordinary feat.
Too bad for him Trout still had a better year.

good for him, but I was rooting for Melky just b/c for the giggles over the embarassment it would cause MLB.

I think Miguel can live with a division championship and the Triple Crown.  Trout can have the consolation prize.
