I'm not saying anything, don't want to jinx the Pirates' good run.

It self-jinxes in July or early August anyway.  No need to worry.

Yeah, All Star Break is when it went to shit the last two seasons.

Cardinals bullpen fucked up what would have been a win for a kid they just called up & who had started his first game.  Wacha went 4 no-hit innings and ended up pitching 7 innings with one run allowed and only 4 hits.  Then Mitchell Boggs steps in and allows the tying run in a one-shot HR and walks what became the go-ahead run.  Why is that fucker and his 10.00+ ERA on this team.

The Orioles have resurrected Freddy Garcia's chunky-style ass.

Good, good... :menace:

I see Cain's ERA is up around 5.00 :)

I think it was more reflective of the Nats crappy lineup.

Nah, he's been pitching decent for a 5th starter since he was brought up from the minors.  Only 3-3, but he's pitched 6 or more innings 4 times and has kept it in the park for most of his time, something they've needed.

Hm.  The A's and the Angels have closed the gap on the Rangers quite a bit.

Yeah he has been pretty decent but not 8 shutout innings decent.

Been a pretty encouraging start so far.  I know the Birds struggling bullpen has blown alot of leads lately but generally I think the club is better than they were last year and I expect for alot of wins in the second half of the season.

Poor Cain. A 7-run inning and they have to leave him in there to keep the relievers fresh for game 2 of the doubleheader.

Even though he's a yankees fan, thought it was cool story.

He has seen the greats, so he gets a pass.

Man, I love working the FA and waiver wires in fantasy baseball.  You mean to tell me I was the only one that knew Francisco Liriano was coming back?

and the horse you rode in on

Cards-Diamondbacks are in the 14th inning.  Dunno why I'm watching, other than to just see it through.  Cards always lose in extra innings.

Btw, Matt Carpenter was hit by a pitch 3 times tonight.  WTF
