Bartolo Colon's RAW is getting massacred.

Board policy is a joke.

Tell that to o_t and DW.

Giants put Melancon on DL with mild pronator strain. Fortunately they won't need him; in their recent turn through the rotation, the starters allowed 32 runs.

Anything better than a 90-loss season will be an achievement.

Bartolo Colon's RAW is getting massacred.

Like the tub of General Tso's chicken when he visits a Chinese buffet.

Tell that to o_t and DW.

They would know better than anyone.

Focus on the baseball, please

 

[Vombatus]

Ok. How bout dem O's? Best record in baseball as of May 10th.

I can't see how the Nats wait until the deadline to make a bullpen move.

Unless Glover is the answer.

At what point do we jump off the Buxton bandwagon

Back out of the ditch:

After that awful start, Twins outfielder Byron Buxton is on a roll

The bright spot in the current Phillie Phloundering is that Aaron Altherr might just be the Jayson Werth replacement they've been looking for. Short of that, Franco needs a day or two off and Jesus Christ, they need a competent pitching coach/bullpen.

Not so sure about that ... Altherr's BABIP is at about .420 right now. Assuming that drops 100 points or so, his BA is going to fall to around .250 and I doubt he's a 40-HR guy like he's on pace for now. Unless he changes his swing, he seems destined to be a .250 hitter with 15-20 HRs.
