ChiSox_Sonix Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 20, 2012 -> 07:22 AM) Except for some All-Star games and now the Phillies, Giants and Cardinals (two times in half a decade) winning the World Series. Realistically, the Phillies were the only dominant multi-dimensional team of those 3....the Giants were more pitching oriented and the Cardinals really just got hot at the right time and rode it all the way through the playoffs, just like in 2006. But the Rangers were clearly the better team overall last year, when you combine the regular season, post-season and the flukey nature of how they lost. The AL is 12-2-1 in the last 15 of them...

LittleHurt05 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 It's official: Dodgers fans are the worst LOS ANGELES -- A driver was beaten in the Dodger Stadium parking lot after a weekend game and four people were arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, police said Monday. The driver, a man in his 20s, was in stable condition with scrapes and cuts to his face and his injuries are not life-threatening, Sgt. David Armas said. His name was not released. The man was involved in a minor collision with another driver as he was leaving the stadium parking lot, and three men from another car also got involved, Armas said. "They basically held the victim down while the original suspect kicked and hit him about the head and face area while he was on the ground," Armas said. The violence comes after a Giants fan was severely injured in a beating during last year's opening game. Bryan Stow was left brain damaged during a confrontation in the parking lot, and stadium officials had promised to increase security after the attack. Armas said Dodgers security staff and uniformed off-duty Los Angeles police were at the stadium Sunday and responded quickly. The four men involved in the latest attack, all in their 20s, were arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon because the victim was kicked, Armas said. One of them suffered bumps and scrapes to his face, "probably as a result of the victim defending himself," Armas said. A woman in the victim's car who was eight months pregnant was not hurt but she was examined at a hospital as a precaution, he said. Armas said the suspects did not appear to have any street gang affiliations. "It was just a minor fender bender that just got totally out of hand," he said.

It didn't even look like he did anything. It was just a normal stretch for a ball at first. No contact, he just leaned forward and you could tell it gave out.

caulfield12 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Quentin's value is closely tied to his ability to stay healthy. Once Quentin joins the Padres' lineup, don't be surprised to see him take off. Last season, with the White Sox, he hit for an average of .214 at home, compared to .294 on the road. A change of scenery and a clean bill of health might help Quentin produce great fantasy numbers. espn.com How can going from USCF, where he hit .214, to one of the LEAST hitter friendly stadiums in baseball cause him to post great fantasy numbers? Doesn't make any sense. So because he hit better on the road in 2011, and he's not playing at USCF in 2012, his numbers therefore have to go up? Hmmmm.

WLWT reports that Chapman was pulled over in a black Mercedes at 12:42 a.m. after being clocked at 93 mph. It was then discovered that Chapman was driving on a suspended Kentucky driver's license. He was taken into custody and then released after posting bond. Chapman did not appear in the Reds' win over the Braves on Monday night. Insert perfunctory joke about Chapman's driving almost as fast as he throws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
