2012 MLB Regular Season Running Thread

Not soon enough, believe me.

Get this: Henry Rodriguez got a hold for that.

I don't think I want to hear about holds anymore.

 

Harper hits a HR for the second straight day. Too bad Strasburg is getting his ass handed to him.

Also, I really wish Ryan Zimmerman would stop being a shitty hitter. The sooner, the better.

 

Signs the Mayans were correct: Derek Lowe is the frontrunner for the AL Cy Young.

 

I wonder if Arte's dispatched a PI down to Santo Domingo to sus out if Pujols was really born on Jan. 16, 1980...and not 1977. You know, grounds to break a contract by finding some useful nugget to prove No. 5's a fraud off the field, and not just on it.

 

After cringing, I must admit I laughed. A lot.

 

You would think they would have already done their homework before offering him $240 million. I know it wouldn't shock many people if he turned out to be older than 32, but after 12 years in the league no one has proved that he wasn't born in 1980. They're going to be stuck with him.

 

UN Jefferson: "You put what?"
Lewis Skolnick: "Liquid Heat."
UN Jefferson: "On their what?"
Lewis Skolnick: "On their jocks."

 

I guess blowing the fuckers up was overruled.

 

Arte might want to check into whether Albert changed dealers in the offseason too.

 

Brett Lawrie lost his damned mind tonight: http://www.cbc.ca/sports/baseball/mlb/story/2012/05/15/sp-mlb-tampa-bay-rays-toronto-blue-jays-henderson-alvarez.html



How many games is hitting an ump with your helmet worth?

 

If he played for the Yankees? Probably a game or two.

Since he plays for the Jays? At least a month.

 

The ump also got hit by a beer from the stands.
