Peavy has to cover first from the mound.

Well, instead of playing two matches every other month for 6-9 months, have the top-ranked team in the group host and get it all over with in 17 days.

Very broad definition of "afternoon" there.

Why not just have a true global WC qualification? 209 teams in FIFA. Host automatically qualifies, reinstate automatic qualification for defending champion. 207 teams qualifying for 30 spots. First round - Teams ranked 33-207 are drawn into 43 groups of four plus 1 group of three. Top two teams in each group (88 teams total) advance to second round. Second round - Teams ranked 1-32 along with teams advancing from first round are drawn into 30 groups of four. Top two teams in each group (60 teams total) advance to final round. Final round - Teams advancing from second round are drawn into 15 groups of four. Top two teams in each group qualify.

Cleveland is not built to win. Going by WARP, their two best hitters are their middle infielders and their best pitcher is a reliever. They don't have a stud hitter like Konerko/Dunn/Cabrera/Fielder or a stud starter like Verlander/Sale/Peavy to give them a jolt when things aren't going well. I think the Indians are in 3rd place by the end of July, if not sooner.

Big difference between a 2B who has never played 3B and a 1B/DH who has never played 3B. One is moving to an easier position and one to a more difficult position.

You can start worrying now, but I don't think the Sox have any choice other than to ride out the slump and hope he comes around.

That's about 15 miles from my house. Take the kids there all the time.

What field is the recruiter in?

Most likely to make ASG: 1 Sale 2 Konerko 3 AJ 4 Peavy 5 Dunn 6 de Aza

The Sox should hire somebody with a math degree and knowledge of baseball to study all of this stuff and determine the optimal pricing structure.

My parents went to college with Doc. They were two years apart and I think Doc was the year in between them.

I'm guessing that's a Ukranian player and not a Swede?

He most certainly has 10/5 rights.

To be perfectly fair to the rest of the staff, Sale is the only one who gets to pitch after Floyd.

I'm very sorry, I did not know there was a rule and I was on the road.

This. Exactly.

The evidence against him is so overwhelming, I think an acquittal does more damage to PSU's reputation--it makes them look like people who will protect criminals, and nobody will want to move there.

Original tweet has been deleted, but @NotKenWilliams retweeted it: http://twitter.com/NotKenWilliams/status/211550895807270912 "RT @wkyc: What are the odds we'll see a Triple Crown winner today? Watch I'll Have Another's run at the Belmont at 4:30" This tweet was sent a full 24 hours AFTER I'll Have Another was scratched.

Going to my first game this year and to mark the occasion I wanted to start the GT. I'll be in Section 110 yelling, "GO SOX!!!"

Now you have me drooling thinking about Das Essenhaus.

I'm pretty sure it applies. What the hell did the keeper do to get a RC?

Someone at WGN-A get an ad together quick: "No point in watching the Belmont Stakes anymore, catch the Sox on WGN-A at 3pm!"

Yeah, but with the way Floyd's been pitching . . .
