He got a quality start, no decision, and an RBI single. Cincinnati beat Pittsburgh walk-off.

Jason Giambi beat the Mets tonight.

Jason Giambi beat the Mets tonight.

There isn't even anything left to say about our poor neighbors.

Sean Henn got the loss for Rochester against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Giambi with another game winning hit coming off the bench

[Yankeeah]

Giambi's line with Colorado:

2-2 with 2 GW hits. 1 walk, 4 RBI's, 1 Fu Manchu

I said it once, I'll say it again would have been nice to get Giambi back for a bench role

His OPS with the A's was less than .700. I would much rather have Pena/Hinske/Hairston/Molina/Gardner over any combination with him.

So he wouldn't be hurt with us?

wasnt that his 100th win also?

[EvanJ]

Yes. The most wins he has with one team is 29 with his first team, Cincinnati.

[yanksphan]

and he's now complaining of "elbow discomfort".

The defending AAA champion Sacramento River Cats, who are down 0-2 to Memphis in their five game series, will start two veteran pitchers in games 3 and 4 of the PCL Championships, with Jerome Williams taking the mound Friday and Shawn Chacon on Saturday. Williams, who allowed one run over 7.0 innings to beat Tacoma in Game 3 of the first-round series, won 10 games for the San Francisco Giants in 2004. Chacon, who earned the win in Sacramento’s series-clinching Game 4 against Tacoma, was an All-Star for the Colorado Rockies in 2003 when he won 11 games.

Isn't this bizarre?

[JavyVazquezIsSick]

Looks great in purple.

The Pirates claimed pitcher Anthony Claggett off waivers from the Yankees,

They most have been impressed with his relief performance for Wang earlier this season against the Indians.

Remember when many of us marveled about the Sheffield deal and what a genius Cashman was for getting 3 young pitching studs. There's a trade that seems to have lost much of its lustre.

[BronxYanks45]

Giambi, fitting in well as a PH for the Rockies

Former Rockies pitcher Shawn Chacon was arrested in Greeley on a charge related to unpaid gambling markers in Nevada, according to the Greeley Tribune.

Weld County sheriff's officials say they released him Tuesday, one day after his arrest, after learning Las Vegas authorities decided not to extradite him.

The Las Vegas Sun reported Friday that Chacon, a graduate of Greeley Central High School, faces a felony charge in connection with three bad checks written for $50,000 to Caesars Palace in March.
