July 25, 200916 yr Game delayed in Philly because some asshole keeps shining a green laser pointer in the St. Louis Cardinals players' eyes.
July 26, 200916 yr QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jul 25, 2009 -> 04:54 PM) Is there a bigger sissy in the league than Erik Bedard? Today he gave up 2 ER but only went 3 innings throwing 81 pitches. I hate him so much. I got him on my fantasy team, which is why I say this.
July 26, 200916 yr 2009 Garret Jones = 2006 Chris Shelton? I personally don't think we'll be hearing about this guy much when he cools off.

July 26, 200916 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 03:40 PM) Can the Cardinals PLEASE stop the Todd Wellemeyer experiment? He is awful. Amazing that Duncan got anything out of him.
July 27, 200916 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 03:03 PM) and Bedard was just placed on the DL today... And the worst trade of the modern era continues to get worse for the Mariners. There goes any chance of them getting anything for him before the deadline.

July 27, 200916 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 10:57 AM) That's worse than Pierzynski for Nathan et al.? By far. Im going to say that Bedard will give more back to the Mariners than AJ gave the Giants, but it might just be a supplemental draft pick. Meanwhile, Nathan (one of the best closers) >>>>> Sherrill (A good closer) Bonser and Liriano (Bonser is now bad, Liriano is quickliy getting to that point) Then you have Adam Jones a 23 year old CF all star, and I cant remember the young bullpen arm they got too (I believe it started with an "m"). If Liriano didnt get injured or start sucking like he has then yes, that trade is more rape. But the amount of talent and success so far (and so early) in the return for Bedard is just ridiculous.
July 27, 200916 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 10:57 AM) That's worse than Pierzynski for Nathan et al.? Without question. Adam Jones has already established himself as an all-star, with the potential to be a superstar. George Sherrill has already established himself as an above average closer. Chris Tillman is arguably the best pitching prospect in baseball. Kam Mickolio has been compared favorably to Bobby Jenks. Don't know much about Tony Butler. But who cares. Meanwhile, Erik Bedard appears to be headed down the same road as guys like Mark Prior and Jason Schmidt. This isn't a case of 20/20 hindsight here. I remember anybody who knew anything about baseball saying the Mariners gave up way too much for Bedard when the trade was made. They were all, um, right. Edited July 27, 200916 yr by Jordan4life
July 28, 200916 yr Lincecum just threw a CG with a career-high 15 K's. It's amazing to watch him pitch when he's on. Edited July 28, 200916 yr by Thunderbolt

"Sure he may look like an innocent child whom you may see frolicking in a meadow some sunny spring afternoon but under that sweet exterior lies a lethal killing machine."
July 28, 200916 yr QUOTE (BearSox @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 10:38 PM) Josh Willingham with a decent night... hit only 2 grand slams. Ironic that Fernando Tatis also hit a grand slam today.
July 28, 200916 yr Can Justin Upton play a good CF? Is he just playing RF because Chris Young is the better defender in CF? It seems to me it would make sense to have him play CF if he could.
July 28, 200916 yr QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 11:37 PM) Ironic that Fernando Tatis also hit a grand slam today. Very true... His were both in the same inning, correct?
July 28, 200916 yr Whose genius idea was it to build Safeco Field by train tracks? That horn that blares for two minutes every hour is just obnoxious.
July 28, 200916 yr QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 11:37 PM) Ironic that Fernando Tatis also hit a grand slam today. where's Robin when you need him? btw, Lincecum eats children (first person to remember who said it first wins major nerd points, unless it is said person, in which case, nerd points are maxed out) Edited July 28, 200916 yr by witesoxfan
July 28, 200916 yr Am I the only one who thinks they should just give the CY to Tim Lincecum right now? What he did to the Pirates last night was just wrong. Only guy with a legitimate case for the award to this point is Dan Haren. But they typically don't give the award to a guy from a lousy team.

CLIFF LEE s*** TIM LINCECUM yeah, I would trade the entire minor league system minus any player on the 40-man that the Giants didn't want for Lincecum right now. He has quickly and, quite frankly, not very quietly overtaken Johan Santana as the best pitcher in the league.

He's the single reason why I think the Giants would have a real shot to get to the World Series if they make it to October. He's that f***ing good.
