QUOTE (KipWellsFan @ May 26, 2010 -> 01:14 PM) Different systems aside, I think one of the big reasons Canada was able to get rid of its huge deficits in the 1990s was strong executive power. It's harder to make big decisions in a weak legislative system. I don't think I'd be opposed to the kind of line item veto that Obama is proposing. With as easy as it is to add riders to bills, I think this is an excellent check.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ May 26, 2010 -> 02:00 PM) And I've never bought that there is this massive Chemistry Stat that makes a huge impact on how a team plays. If a team is winning, they have great chemistry, if they suck, their chemistry sucks? Its stupid How would you feel if one of your classmates was nailing your mom? Would you feel fine in the classroom or would you be distracted?

Anyone?

So how far do you let Jenks go?

Nice job Tony. Now I feel pretty good about this one.

Another pop out... Come on Tony, one more.

Rios keeps him from tagging.

Santos warming

Ugh, the leadoff walk. It is about time to get the real relievers up now, and let Pena get out of there on a good note.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 26, 2010 -> 12:34 PM) ugh. i'm an idiot. sorry! No biggie. You usually don't see it expressed that way. Pretty much the only currency expressed that way is the Yen.

KOTSAY DOES YARD WORK!!!

get him over Pauly

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ May 26, 2010 -> 11:30 AM) So what happened to Buehrle to be out this early?? Read the early pages in this thread

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 26, 2010 -> 12:28 PM) am I seeing this right? The Euro is now .81 to the dollar? Craziness. Might be changing my honeymoon plans in October... If my math is right you are looking at how many Euro=1 Dollar, instead of the usual 1 Euro = how many dollars

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 26, 2010 -> 11:26 AM) So, I can remember 1 other time when Buehrle was tossed, when he had that streak of 5+ IP or something. Does anybody remember who the umpire was in that game? Is that the only other time in his career? Brian Gorman

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ May 26, 2010 -> 11:20 AM) Is it true that Quentin was offered an extension before the 2009 season? The story was that TCQ, Floyd, and Danks all got offered one.

Not even close on that one Gordo

Nice cutter by Pena to end it. Great pitching in the big spots so far today.

Branyon doing his Pods imitation on the basepaths.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ May 26, 2010 -> 11:12 AM) Pena's given us 2+ in a quarter of his outings this year including two 3 inning performances. Only 2 runners have scored in those 10.2 IP, he's stranded all 3 runners he's inherited in these situations. jinx.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 26, 2010 -> 11:12 AM) I am DVRing the game. Does it seem in this game Mark gets dinged for what he has always been allowed by the umps to do? Absolutely. There isn't even a gray area to it as far as I saw.

Sac fly hit hard. Somehow Pierre keeps the runner on second.
