Oh, that was very much on my mind when I made my post. The WHIP is pretty damn amazing, too. Combine those two and I couldn't care less about his record or strikeout total (though both are very good). He is easily the best in the AL so far.

Verlander's last start before the break is on Wednesday, so he would have a full complement of rest. I also believe Beckett will be fully rested by the All Star Game.


I'm a little biased in saying I think Verlander should start, but Beckett has earned it as well. Those are probably 1 and 1A, although you really can't go wrong with any of about 4-5 pitchers.

Ok...at what point does somebody in that organization pull a John Smoltz and tell Rich Harden to get on the mound and pitch already? He says it is not worth pushing through the ache at this point, but when do start to question if it is a matter of toughness rather than injury?

Not gonna lie … When I first saw the fan running at Howry, my initial reaction was “Yeah, kick his fucking ass!”

The Reds will find a way to lose two of the three, just as they have for the past month.

I did not know that. I was listening on the radio, and Ron Santo was too busy preparing himself for a Japanese suicide ritual to even mention it.

"Unbelievable ... Oh my gosh ... just unbelievable."

Santo's level of surprised indignation when the Cubs act like the Cubs never ceases to amaze. He's like that Tom Hanks character from the old SNL skit, Mr. Short Term Memory.

I just want to know who this Scott "Ire" might be that Fred Hickman was talking about in the Cubs highlights on the late SportsCenter. I thought it was Scott Eyre. Silly me.

The attempted attack

I was surprised Comcast showed as much as they did. Back when Arne Harris was the producer, they never would have shown that.

If the guy didn't stop when he reached the mound, we could have had an ass-kicking on our hands.

Howry should've wound up and fired the ball.

 

Re: Corriando beisbol estring numero seis (because 46 pages on No. 5 was enough ...)

Or if the guy continued running and not stopped to throw up his hands, deck him with a clean right.
