Baseball thread No. 8 - play nice

I broke up a no-hitter once in little league when I was nine. I think it was the third inning.

 

It's an honor to be included in that, especially since Rube said it.

 

I pitched a no-hitter when I was 12. We won 6-5. My team made 7 errors, including 4 in one inning, to score most of their runs. It was brutal.

I don't count that one. But it was, technically, a no-hitter.

 

My endorsement income is huge.

 

No, in honor of you being Roy-Munson-and-the-bull-caliber Yankee cocksuckers, the characterization stands.

 

I thew one when I was 14, Struck out 12 in six innings and hit a two-run homer, won 4-1. Second-best athletic day of my life

 

Don't present Rube with facts. It only confuses him.

 

Shit, I'd count it and I'd tell people about it every day. Nice job, buckweave. Is our fight over?

 

I don't think so.

 

So after looking over the trades in the 72 hours before deadline, I just don't get it.

The Phillies, 49-55 at this writing, said, "Ah, fuck it," and gave away their best player for three pair of stirrup socks.

The Dodgers, just one better in the win column and even in losses, traded like a team in the hunt for a flag.

I just don't get it.


And let me take this moment to complain about one trade: Todd Walker to the Padres. Clearly the wrong team for him and another colossal fuckup by the Cubs.

Seriously ... clearly Walker should be a Texas Ranger.

 

The outfield I've ever seen play. :'(

 

I just can't believe the D-Backs went for two after their last touchdown. The game was over at that point. They were really just rubbing it in.

EDIT: Serious question. How many active major leaguers are worse than Glendon Rusch? I don't know any I can name for certain off the top of my head.
