  1. Alex Rios strikeouts 5 times, Adam Lind goes 5-for-5

    http://www.theheraldbulletin.com/sports/local_story_155234841.html We've seen 5-for-5 before, but it's so interesting because every time Alex Rios got a strikeout, the very next batter Adam Lind would get a hit.

  2. Braves Trade for McLouth

    Just read that the Braves traded for Nate McLouth. No word yet on who they gave up. http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09154/974921-100.stm

  4. Can someone explain the fallacy of the predetermined outcome?

    Alas, I don't get YES or get the opportunity to hear Michael Kay's voice every game, which is why I'm relying on you folks to help me out. From time to time, I've heard it come up on these boards about this fallacy- can someone please explain?

  5. Worst recent trades

    Hey all- Can anyone else think of some really god-awful trades in the last 10-15 years? I'm not included any deal motivated by money (ie, Cone for Marty Janzen).... To me, the worst was Heathcliffe Slocumb for Derrick Lowe and Jason Varitek. I can also think of Roberto Kelly for Paul O'Neill.... any others?

  6. The LOL At David "Poopi" Ortiz Thread

    Hey, my name is David Américo Ortiz Arias and I had the nickname "Big Papi" when I used to be able to hit a baseball coming 80 MPH at me. I weigh a healthy 235 pounds and my chin strap adds to my intimidating factor. My batting average is .188 and Brett Gardner has traveled around 4 bases in a play more times than me this year.

  7. Everyone's Afraid of Making THIS trade

    In one of the worst trades in baseball history, the Baltimore Orioles sent Curt Schilling, Pete Harnish and Steve Finley to Houston on January 10, 1991, for first baseman Glenn Davis. Steve Finley is still a valuable center fielder and lefty bat. Harnish has made a decent living filling spots as No. 3, 4 or 5 in starting rotations, and Curt's feats are well-known; Davis hit 24 homers for the Orioles over three injury-plagued and ineffective years. Ouch!

  9. Mr. T at the Cubs game

    Anyone see this last night? It's some of the most hilarious footage ever. Mr. T throws out the first pitch Mr. T sings Take Me Out To The Ballgame (What you don't hear so well at the end of the second clip -- I heard this on the Pirates feed -- after he says, "Go Cubs, go!" he says, "I pity the Pirates! Grrrrrrr!")

  10. Dennis Eckersley forgets where he is

    Remy and Orsillo alone (NESN broadcast team) are pretty good, but beware when Ecks joins the them. Ugh...he's one of the biggest Sox homers ever. Anyway, during the first game of the Mets-Sox series, he was commenting on Santana's pitch that hit Youk and completely forgot where he was. *sigh* NSFW, by the way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uDZet-xA1M&feature=player_embedded

  11. Keith Foulke -- On the Comeback Trail?

    He is now playing for the Newark Bears...I respect him not taking the money from Cleveland but otherwise, it's hard to root for this guy because he's just so obnoxious: He feels he should have been the MVP of the World Series. Says the uniforms don't fit and the balls are dirty and scuffed. Says he'd prefer to play in Arizona where he lives but would even play for the yankees. :barf:

  12. Randy Johnson article -"Maybe I would have tested positive for a banned supplement"

    Interesting quote from Randy Johnson in a new SI article. "I'm not denying that I went to GNC and all that stuff. I took a lot of different things that, you know, maybe at that time, maybe early enough, if I would have been tested, who knows? I could have been taking stuff had they tested me back then. Maybe I would have tested . I don't know." http://vault.sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1155646/4/index.htm

  16. Best GMs in baseball?

    I was just wondering, who are some of the better general managers in baseball? I know Larry Beinfest, Dave Dambrowski and Billy Beane are all highly thought-of, but is there anyone else I'm maybe missing?

  17. AL East logjam?

    Just say, hypothetically, if the Jays continue their level of play and finish first in the East. Then, as a top 4 (any order), you've got; TOR NYY BOS TB ...and the Orioles look to be decent in a few years' time. What could possibly be done about 4 potential 90-win juggernauts in one division? Does somebody get moved to the NL? Is that even possible?

  18. MLB/Burger King - Beat The Streak Contest

    Do any of you participate in this contest? It's very cool, but does require alot of research to keep your 'streak' alive. I joined last year & actually had a good streak of 15 until Derek Jeter (of all people :o ) went 0 fer 4 on me..sometime before the ASB. Can't remember the exact game. So far this year my longest as been 11...got booted on an Albert Pujols '0 fer'.. Gave it a rest for a week or two..and currently have a 7 day streak going. Picking Mark Teixiera for tomorrow....

Such comments impugning the integrity and impartiality of Angel Hernandez or any other member of the umpiring staff will not be tolerated." ----------------------------------- A question. Since when has Hernandez acted professionally, impartially, or with integrity? The...
