I'll Have Another scratched from tomorrow's Belmont Stakes.

2/5/12/16 are my most common annoyances on that list.

I'm a bit more optimistic. 11-4.

Yes, Johnson would have to be DFA'd to get sent back down. He's not getting called up unless Konerko or Dunn is going to be out for a long stretch of time.

Series is in Chicago. If not, then 15 members of my family are going to be sitting in an empty stadium tomorrow.

Sox have to have an advantage, schedule-wise. They play the four worst teams in the NL Central while avoiding the top two, and the Dodgers are without Kemp.

One more day until I AM THERE!

And then when the Yankees are either not in the playoffs or out after the first round, TBS and FOX will complain about low ratings.

So your Dad sent your sister to a public school in Columbus and was upset that she was exposed to the OSU fight song? Did he also send her to summer camp in Wisconsin and get upset that she ate cheese?

If John is back next week to pitch in STL or LA, maybe Jordan could pinch hit for him.

He needs to be starting every 5th day, either in Chicago or Charlotte. Do not put him in the bullpen.

I don't follow terribly closely, but I can make bad predictions just as well as anybody: A: Russia/Greece B: Netherlands/Germany C: Spain/Croatia D: France/England QF: Germany over Russia, Spain over England, Netherlands over Greece, Croatia over France SF: Spain over Germany, Netherlands over Croatia F: Spain over Netherlands

Bravo to Robin! If your catchers are both among your nine best hitters, then find a way to get them both in the lineup. I might have gone with Dunn at 1B since he has more experience, but then having Flowers in the field prevents you from losing your DH if something happens to AJ and you have to move him behind the plate.

Dodgers are banged up, and the Cubs/Astros/Brewers are just terrible. 8-7 against the remaining IL schedule would be very disappointing.

What did the people of Indy do to you?

That's what she said.

When 50 Cent goes on tour in Canada, he is known as 75 Cent.

Indy and Detroit had covered stadiums. While both have less to offer than Chicago, they have more to offer that is within walking distance of the stadium. Indy also got very lucky in having record warm temps during Super Bowl week. I don't know how NY is going to work. The draw of visiting NY is Manhattan, which is nowhere near the stadium. I think NY really missed the boat not building the new stadium in Manhattan.

Gameday has been stuck on 1 out in the top of the 3rd for about 20 minutes now. What is the score/inning/situation please?

I'm happy if neither team sweeps the other.

Whichever one is more likely to pay for my beers.

Dropping him 20 notches on his top prospect list as we speak.

That was my first thought, but then my second thought is that the fact that his arm could fall off at any moment worries HIM, and he might take a multi-year deal at well below market value.

I made my grades by comparing players to league averages for their position, not according to anybody's expectations for them. If you were expected to be the best DH in the league and you're the second best DH in the league, you still get an A/A- even though you aren't meeting expectations. If you were expected to be the worst 2B in the league and you're the second worst 2B, you still get a D because you still suck.
