Johan's carried teams on his back before, and I think he can carry the Mets through a pretty weak NL.

Torii Hunter good, Joe Borowski bad

travis hafner good

justin speier just blows the save in anaheim, now the angels have to score in the 9th to keep cleveland out of the win column

Cy Dempster? Also, hadn't the Angels won a ton of games in a row when leading going into the 9th? The Brewers are going to benefit when Gallardo returns because they can finally ditch the miserable David Bush.

2 blown saves in 1 game for the Cubs.

 

fathom, why did you delete your post?

Because he can't enjoy being "right" now.

Don't worry, it will go back up if the Cubs win. And the only reason I posted that was my wife asked me earlier today what the record of both teams were, as she's heard so much good about the Sox, and has heard a lot of people ask what's wrong with the Cubs.

Corey Patterson with another nice game tonight. I can't believe no one would give him a one year deal.

Why delete it then?

 

Why not accept that you're wrong occasionally?

Cause I posted the Cubs had won. For some reason, my dish isn't getting Comcast plus tonight, so I was going off of the 4-2 final that ESPNews inaccurately stated earlier. But don't worry, they have the lead now.

Doesn't this go against the baiting we've discussed so much?

Really?

 

Why do the Pirates even bother playing? They won't win more than 60 games this season. It's funny that the Sox have played well so far this year, and the Cubs have looked awful....and we're both 5-3.

 

Looks to me more like you were bashing the Pirates than acknowledging the Cubs.

How is it baiting?

 

It's how you post.

 

Always posting like the dog of life took a s*** in your loafers.

The 5-3 Cubs record wasn't accurate at the time, especially when I was told about Laroche's homer.

What happened to only posting stuff with substance? I've never once been warned about my style of posting. Some people don't like it, others agree with it.

That's because most probably have you on ignore.

 

As much as I would enjoy that option myself, I can't; since, as a mod I have to read everything.

Can we just create a Cubs sub-thread in the Diamond Club where people like myself, Bull, and Santo can make comments about items referring to them?

That's because most probably have you on ignore.

 

I didn't know we had the ignore function. That's cool, good for them. I honestly would love for anyone that has such a problem with me to PM me and discuss their difference of opinions. Some of the best conversations possible on this site are with people you completely disagree with. In the end, we're all White Sox fans. Sorry for the confusion tonight knightni with that Cubs post.

Giants, who have to own one of the two worst offensives in baseball (along with the Pirates) have walk off wins against the Padres bullpen the last two nights. I do love late night extra inning games on the extra innings package.

MLB and the MLBPA seem to have tentatively come up with an agreement to turn over the management of their drug testing program to an outside administrator.

Gnarley dude!

Ned Yost pulling the same s*** again. Leaves Villaneuva in WAY too long in the seventh.

From rotoworld:

 

According to the St. Petersburg Times, Al Reyes was arrested early Friday morning "after falling down, picking a fight and spitting blood at the patrons of a popular Hyde Park night spot."

Reyes may have been out celebrating his 38th birthday, which was Thursday. The newspaper reports that Reyes "fell against a ceramic pot inside the bar" and thought that someone had pushed him, at which point he "began exchanging words" with a patron who eventually "punched Reyes in the face." In a news release, police said that Reyes then "began to spit blood on the people in the area and began to swing his arms about," at which point an officer reportedly twice used a taser to subdue him.

Ahem, I mean, how sad, terrible example, grumble grumble...

 

Also, Milwaukee has too many Villanuevas. Or Villanuevi. Whatever.

The Brewers look sluggish so far. Their defense is so atrocious, as Ryan Braun makes Scott Podsednik look like a Gold Glover.
