Cubs game was V fun tonight. Totally different vibe watching this team compared to last year. They are playing a bit over their heads though. Alot of those Castro rbi hits have been more of the seeing eye variety rather than the hard hit kind. I'll stand by my feelings that make the playoffs or not, this may be the most exciting team to watch.

Cubs doing their part to make sure the Back to the Future prophecy comes true. Now just need a way to get Miami in the AL and make the World Series a "Best of 9" to complete it.

Still not sold on the pitcher batting 8th. Their record says otherwise though. La Russa did this alot hitting your schumakers and descalsos of the world 9th, and even he stopped doing it. I get the theory of it but the other new age thing is to have your best hitter up in the 2 spot to get him more ABs, so doesn't that mean you are also giving your worst hitter more ABs as well.?

Sounds like Nathan is gonna have Tommy John. Probably career-ender at this point. Had a pretty awful run with the Tigers when he came over but can't deny that he's been a beast his entire career. Shitty way to end a career if this is truly the end for him.

Yeah that's never a good way to end your career. The stat line for his final season is pretty boss at least:
1 save. 0.1 IP, 1 batter faced, 1 K. On pace to throw a perfect game with 27 Ks. |

And 10 straight wins at home. Home hadn't been kind to them at all in recent years.
I would love nothing more than to sweep in the Bronx. Hard to fathom though...Yankees have been playing well this week and overall it's pretty rare for either side to sweep the Subway Series anymore. Just win the series and I'll be happy. Especially if they grab game 1 to clinch sole possession of best streak in team history. |

Not a bad road trip for the Yankees. 7-3, and took 3/4 from the Tigers who must have caught them at a good time.
Something's finally clicking after a horrible opening week. |

Royals involved in their 4th bench-clearing incident in a week. Adam Eaton hits a ground ball comebacker to Yordano Ventura. Ventura stares down Eaton as he runs and yells "FUCK YOU" for some reason before throwing him out. Brawl ensues.

O's are 1-5 vs the Jays 6-4 vs Boston, NY and Tampa.
Not the least bit worried Since they are missing 3 of their best players (Wieters Schoop and Hardy) who should all be back by June. Plus the Jays are playing over their heads with all those young players anyway. Only major concern I have is the pitching has been bad, but they weren't good last year for the first 3 months either. |

Just wait until you run into the Royals at Summerslam.

The O's have to deal with the Red Sox and Blue Jays as it is.

Last year I felt so bad for the Royals coming up just short of completing the storybook ending. But with their antics this year I can't really see any reason to have any sympathy for them anymore.

Chatter going around the net is that the Angels are gonna ship Josh Hamilton back to Texas. No details on what's coming or going in the deal. But from what I'm reading, a trip to extended spring training was out of the question.

Him rejecting the rehab stint was the final straw for the Angels. Of the $83 million left, Angels are covering $68 million and Hamilton is cutting back on some of the $15 million the Rangers would owe.

Man....he was so good for a bit there. Wonder if he does the Dontrelle Willis and hitches on with a new AAA team every year for a while or if he just calls it quits and goes to work as an insurance agent.
