Not getting any help from the Nats, they're losing again to the Cardinals

 

[NYCBrave]

Oh and remember when we beat up Matsuzaka for 6 runs in 3 IP earlier this month? Since then, he's only given up 4 ER in 4 games! Including 7 2/3 IP of 4 hit ball IN Cincinnati today. Wow.

Giants offering up a human sacrifice, Barry Zito, to aid the Dodgers tonight.

 

[Garmel]

Nats down 4-1 in the 7th. We're not going to get any help from them it seems.

Hope the baseball gods go all Hebrew and refuse that ****.

I think we can only lose 1 out of the remaining 5 if we want home field. The Cards are going to win today and then will probably sweep the Cubs this weekend. Sigh, was really hoping we'd avoid either the Cards or the Dodgers in the first round. Oh well.

You should have hoped that we'd avoid both the Cards and Dodgers in the first round. Now, your hopes may be answered, we seemed to have found a way to meet the Dodgers in the first round.

Cano told the Yanks he wasnts 300 Mill. For realz.

He is 30 this year right? That doesn't add up. 30 mill for 10 years? Pish posh i say.

 

[holden]

LOL CB Bucknor.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Hopefully one day, Bucknor screws Gomez over, and Gomez gives him a black eye and gets suspended for 50 games. Everybody wins.

 

[Julio3000]

LOL CB Bucknor.

Again? What happened?

 

[tululush]

Did he come out and say something about the ejections?

LOL CB Bucknor.

And Selig won't do anything about it. Awesome. You know what I'm hoping for. I hope that in one of the "more pronounced" playoff games Dodgers/Stl or Boston/Detroit that something much much worse than this happens that directly influences a game...I don't know maybe an infield fly in the outfield ...and finally the negative pub towards the umps causes for something drastic to be done. It's criminal that these umpires continue to be this bad and nothing comes from it. Just makes them feel even more lazy with making the correct call.

If I've learned anything, baseball is the one job, especially an umpire, when you can be outright atrocious at what you do and still get paid while being supported by your bosses. I guess professors, politicians and people like that could fall into that category, but that's more subjective. With guys like Bucknor, Hernandez, Eddings, it's painfully obvious.

I know we are not Yankee fans, but this is still very cool:

Loved seeing Jeter and Pettitte take him out.

Mo is one of the greats. Wish him all the best.

While they aren't making the playoffs, I think its safe to say Dayton and Ned have bought themselves at least another year with the Royals.

Sure, the Myers trade was still retarded however.

 

[holden]

LOL CB Bucknor.
