Congrats on winning that series Ordep! Fucking Javy Guerra, he's gonna have as many losses as saves in no time.... I hope the Dodgers start throwing around that investment group money for some help in the bullpen!

I think they'll give him one more chance before start swaping him and Jensen between the 8th and 9th.

I'm a passionate fan, Bubbles
I may be too hard on the guy.... But then, there are instances like Friday when we were up 3-1 in the ninth and Guerra gave up two runs to send us in to extras. Out of the Dodgers six losses, five have come in our opponents last at bat, and I am sure Guerra has at least three of those L's on his record. I suppose that's really the only thing I can bitch about though.

#5 starter, SS, 1B all out for the season in the past 3 weeks, and Carlos Gomez is on the DL after a great start. This is not looking good.

Crybabies complaining about park dimensions
I called this the first time I saw the design of the new Marlins park "Stanton won't be happy". It seems they built that atrocity to help Reyes and Ramirez to get triples and iHR by hitting the gaps. Won't be long before they move the fences in.
Pussies, they should be grateful they are not playing on the Polo Grounds

The Dodgers are owning so far. We are basically fucked up with injuries, somehow managed to pull off some good victories and a quarter of the way through the season we sfill have the best record in baseball. Granted, keeping that mojo the entire season will be the real test.
I didn't think Bobby Abreu was the player we wanted, but he has certainly exceeded my expectations thus far with his contributions. I would still like to see some more pitching come our way before the trade deadline, if nothing else.

My life sucks though so I don't have TV in my apartment and haven't been able to follow this season very well. Does anyone have a MLB.TV subscription? Is it worth the cash?

Niceee!!! We needed a Rangers fan here since most of the American League talk around is Shawn with his Yankees and BSB with his Sox. $20 love his Royals but they are still the Royals. Bubbles will throw the random "Go Jays!" but he's more into St. Louis and eventually his man-crush on Pujols will make him an Angels fan.
Welcome aboard!

It's actually a perfect scenario, merging the former Jays and Cards stars into a team, plus you gotta love both of those contracts

Haven't followed baseball that heavily since the Killer Bs retired, and Oswalt and Berkman departed Houston.

I'm pretty sure the 2012 season is history already for me as a Brewers fan. Too many injuries, and not enough hitting = a lost season. I'll still watch, but not every game, it's just too painful.

All that even with Braun sneaking out of his 50-game susp

He's the only one that could swing a bat that's stayed healthy this season(since Lucroy's wife decided to crush his hand under a suitcase the other day). His numbers haven't suffered at all this year, which is a pleasant surprise because I didn't know what to expect. I'm going to go ahead an assume he just took some spoiled herp meds and that's what triggered the failed test.

And there is some hope!!!!!
Not only Beltran is playing decently this season but today with the 1st overall pick of the MLB Draft the Houston Astros selected Carlos Correa from Puerto Rico
It's good to know that still some kids down there are choosing to play ball instead of going after drugs and reggaeton.

Hopefully my Mariners solved their last decade of catcher woes with their pick today grabbing C - Mike Zunino out of Florida. Glad they're finally going for more pro-ready players with LHP Hultzen at #2 last year being a JR, same as Zunino at #3 this year, both from solid major colleges.
I still can't look at a catcher pick and not think of 2005 when we took C - Jeff Clement at #3 based on need (same pick as this year), and he never panned out and the next 4 picks were Ryan Zimmerman, Ryan Braun, Ricky Romero, Troy Tulowitzki with Andrew McCutchen and Jay Bruce a few picks later. Shoot me now.
I like what I've seen from Zunino though and my fingers are crossed.
