If I was ever lucky enough to hit a walk off homer off KRod, I would relish it and show him up as much as possible. How he acted today was very bush league.

What I'd do is just sit down on the ground and watch it. Maybe stretch out and relax at homeplate.

Clint Hurdle is out of his f***ing mind.

 

Supposedly he had the next highest total in the player balloting, and that is why he is going.

Which is a cop out.

Am I the only one who doesn't think that a guy who did Heroin is any better than a guy who did HGH?

Ankiel used it to gain a competitive edge.

Hamilton did it for recreational use.

 

 

Apples and oranges.

Radomski finds a couple more steroid/HGH receipts lying around his house, including one for Clemens.

He was planning on using them for coasters.

I'm surprised the BoSox didn't consider going after him. My guess is they got some good news on the Ortiz front and now believe he'll truly be back by the end of July (instead of potentially out another couple months which had been rumored).

UH OH.

 

Francisco Liriano's agent has contacted the players' association about pursuing a grievance against the Twins for not promoting him.

 

Perhaps Liriano has himself stashed away in his fantasy league. He is 7-0 with a 2.73 ERA in his last nine starts at Triple-A, and his fastball is consistently in the mid-90s and touching 97. He is claiming that the Twins are purposely keeping him in the minors to limit his major league service time and thus his arbitration eligibility. Livan Hernandez has a 7.28 ERA in his past ten starts, but he's also owed $5 million this season. Liriano could have major league service time added to his total if he wins. Jul. 17 - 2:12 pm et

We're in trouble whenever Liriano returns, and he's anywhere NEAR pre-surgery levels. Which, admittingly, may never occur.

 

Still no sign of our Lirano, though.

You know, there is a separate AL Central catch-all thread... ;)

Hhaha

Damn, I was expecting more of a reaction.

to be honest, when the 4th best ERA in the AL is in your rotation, it's hard to get too worked up about finding our Liriano.

LOL, for those of you who didn't see Manny's play last night go to the red sawks web site. It's pretty funny.

From rotoworld. Orioles sp Adam Loewen is going the Rick Ankiel route. After sustaining further elbow injuries, he's decided to attempt a comeback as an outfielder. He basically hasn't hit since his one year of college (2003).

A prediction: There will come a day, when Francisco Rodriguez will not earn a save. It may not be today (in fact, it definitely won't be), it may not be tomorrow. But that day will come.

 

I have spoken.

Judging by his first inning today, that might not hold up for very long.

so, largely because ESPN hasn't been shoving it down my throat, ramming it up my ass, and trying to shoot it into my bloodstream all at the same time, I had no idea that Daisuke Matsuzaka has an ERA of 2.63 this year. Aside from absolutely horrendous control, he has been money this year. Maybe I've just taught myself how to zone myself out of ESPN at the right times now a days, because I was actually surprised to see that.

 

Just weird

Were you listening to Cowherd this morning? Cause he was mentioning that exact thing.

And Boston fans still rip him apart regularly. You would think he has a decent ERA instead of the one he has.

Sabathia is a beast. When it was 1-0 Brewers, it felt like that would be a enough. If they get one bullpen guy, they could run away with the Central.
