    Of course he is trolling. That doesn't make it less sad. It makes it more sad.

    Giolito to make debut for Nats tomorrow v. Mets on MLB Network.

    In other news, Mike Morse is a studio guy on MLB. Rough around the edges but he's got potential.

    Marlins infielders are error-free in 26 straight games -- longest streak since 1913.

    Arrieta racking up the pitch count again. Cubs have already blown two leads to the Reds.

    Despite being a fan, I'd be fascinated if they could somehow turn their historic start into air before the regular season ends.

    Arrieta 4 IP, 4 BB, 4 SO, 3 ER so far. One more inning and he logs a handicap-adjusted CG.

    Unlike the performances Dickie has been attacking, this is actually a bad outing by Arrieta.

    Leave it to you to back up a guy dealing insults at a first-grade level.

    Yeah, totally out of the blue tonight.

    You have been criticizing his performance. More than once, you have posted inaccurate statistics in an attempt to back up your trolling. When you were clearly getting your ass handed to you, you started framing it as an indicator of a decline in performance to come. Now you want to frame the entire discussion that way because he's throwing a stinker tonight.

    Not that Rick, the person you were trolling, ever denied there was reason for concern. To be honest, I was too busy pointing out the massive flaws in the arguments you have been making to get into that part of the discussion, but he admitted as much a while ago.

    As I suggested earlier, you've been doing what trolls do, throwing shit at the wall and carrying the goalposts all over the place because you are far more concerned about starting shit than you are in having a rational discussion.


    Cue DW with more trolling bullshit.

    Red Sox fans will gladly accept that kind of performance from a starting pitcher these days. If Pedroia had his way, Eduardo Rodriguez would already be on a bus back to Pawtucket.

    Have to think Price will improve. Otherwise it's Porcello and Wright, or better outhit them tonight.

    If you remember from 86 Hurst or Clemens, the rest are lemons.

    Although I always liked Oil Can.
