Lieber just gave up 4 HRs to the Reds in the 2nd, and they are still batting.

Everyone on my fantasy team sucks.

You are getting Votto. Three bombs today (I have him on the bench - D'oh!)

EDIT: And Volquez - 6 IP, 1.33 WHIP, 1 QS, 8 K today.

Well I missed out on those stats and you know once I start them they'll start to tank.

Watch Cabrera win the triple crown.

Since I proposed the trades this week....

Volquez - 7 IP, 10 K, 0 ER
Votto - 3 HR
Santana - 9 IP, 9 K, 0 ER

This does not produce a warm fuzzy feeling. Yes, I'm getting David Wright, Miguel Cabrera, and Ben Sheets, but the guys I'm giving up are lighting it up and could be in breakout mode. I think I got distracted by sparkly things.

Ahh, get-away day. Nothing like being counterproductive at work with Gameday distracting me on the screen and the call coming in on my XM radio.

Interesting decision going on in Pittsburg. Jair Jurrjens loads the bases in the bottom of the 5th with a walk, a single, and a HBP. With 1 out, Russell decides to let the pitcher, Duke, hit in a 0-0 game. That spot had a LEV of 3.0. Duke, who was at 80 pitches, struck out, changing the LEV to 3.6. Freddy Sanchez doubled to clear the bases after Duke struck out. Even if a PH and Sanchez had failed, the reliever in to pitch the top of the 6th would have only faced a LEV of 1.3 to start the inning. Russell got lucky.

In philly , Jayson Werth has allready hit a 3run HR and a Grandslam , philly up 8-0 over the jays in the 3rd inning

Because all I can get on Saturdays from now until the end of the season will be the Marlins and Rays, I'm watching the Rays game today. Another Joe Magrane gem to share with you all. JP Howell comes into the game and Magrane quips, "JP has really found his niche in this bullpen". The situation was pitching the 6th inning on the road down 3. Some niche spot that is.

The Red and the Padres are heading into the bottom of the 18th with a score of 9 - 9.

The Reds are brining in Edinson Volquez, who started Friday and struck out 12.

**Youk Of The Nation** · 05-25-2008, 09:56 PM

Whats your guess? Mine is 24 innings, Padres win.

Optimist · 05-25-2008, 10:03 PM

Gonzalez ends the double header with a 3 run shot.

One Red Seat · 06-02-2008, 08:06 PM

Jay Bruce is William Wallace.

Coco's Disciples · 06-02-2008, 08:39 PM

Soo Jay Bruce, with all of 29 PA's already has a VORP of 11.4, or higher than Teixiera, Fielder, Mauer, Carlos Lee, Markakis, etc. So yeah hes pretty good.
