Hammy, but no Cruz
Oh well. I’m still exited to see Hammy’s resurrection. We should hide colored eggs all over the ballpark to celebrate.
That's why they call them business sox

wow
They need all the pitching they can get since they are in the AL East.
The good news for Rays fans is that Price, who will start the finale on Sunday against the Rangers, has posted a 3.41 ERA since July 31 and has shown marked improvement on his slider. And between Price, Matt Garza, James Shields, AL Rookie of the Year candidate Jeff Niemann, and newcomer Wade Davis, the Rays are stocked with five quality starting pitchers aged 27 or younger.

It's great...
I came from TimeWarner and Uverse is more reliable; less pixelation errors.
However, they didn’t tell me that the number of Tvs and computers online will affect throughput, and I also notice that with different TVs on the same channel, there is a lag where you can hear something on one TV then another, with about a 2 sec gap.

Dr Andrews today said Pitchers who play Year Round baseball competitively,are more prone to TJS.
It kills their arms he says.
So get your son I’m other sports that gives your kids’ arm a good rest.

There's an article coming out that shows some pitchers are choosing TJS as a performance enhancer
because it replaces a weaker ligament with a stronger tendon. So TJS was becoming the equivalent of ’roids.

major drop in his OBP and huge jump in FB%. A..241 BABIP is a contributor but a career low LD% mitigates that some. Kinda curious about the rest of his offensive numbers

Soriano hit 46 bombs in 2006.
We have so many other things to worry about than Ian Kinsler.

and how is that any comparison to Sorianio in 2005 having a similar line than Kinsler this year
both Gant and Carter’s lines where worse the next year. In the following year Gant hit 17 and Carter had 27. There is to much variability to use that as a predictor.

Geez Frankie
Hank is 7 runs below a zombie replacement at first base. Do you realize how terrible that is? Zombie’s can’t think, they’re slow, and they’re often ejected from the game for eating opposing baserunners’ brains. - Ben quantifies Hank Blalock
