QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 10:07 AM) The Mariners are in contention, if you haven't noticed. So that's a big no. It would have been a big no even if the Mariners sucked. well, exactly, which was why I was wondering why he would bring up Felix. He didn't say Verlander or Weaver, but Felix. Twice. Like he knew something.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 01:10 PM) I always thought that he was one of the more obvious juicers. I understand that he tested positive for a banned substance, but that was "supposedly" not a steroid. I always liked the guy when he was with the Sox. But we got a good return on that trade.

I heard Michael Kaye on the radio this morning and TWICE he mentioned that the Yankees would be looking to add a starter "like a King Felix" before the deadline. Is Felix even available? The fact that he said it 2x made me wonder.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 07:03 AM) The 2005 offense was "good" because our relief pitching was insanely awesome. Easy to get away with scoring 3 runs in a game if your pitching gives up 2. THANK YOU -- has everyone forgotten this?? I mean, it was arguably one of THE BEST runs by a pitching staff in post season in MLB HISTORY. Repeat: IN HISTORY. And that pitching staff is what pulled that gasping, sputtering, choking offense over the finish line when it was on the verge of an epic collapse...a collapse that I would've had a hard time getting over as a fan.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 10:13 PM) Who really cares about the opinion of the Guillen family biographer. Amen! I have not read this guy in a month until this was posted and it's just a great reminder of why I don't read him anymore. He's just a jerk, or at least he tries to be, very hard. He strives to cultivate this aura of clever uniqueness but produces a stench of awkward desperation. He's as catty and spiteful as a prom queen and as sycophantic as a groupie. Remarkable that he's a sports writer in a town like Chicago.

how does this happen....

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 12:09 PM) Verlander cruising once again. I hate Valverde's bulls*** routine when he gets a save. What a f***ing clown.

i do believe the fuse is lit. and that's not hyperbole.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:54 PM) Back to 2 games under, 4 games back. the glass ceiling

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 12:05 PM) Well, I'm checking out right now cause it's first pitch time and I'm definitely boycotting this game. Remember me in the game thread when you see out after out. Run to Vegas and your bookies now and bet heavily on the under and an L. Sayonara and have a nice day. It's 105 degrees in Kansas and hot n humid and I gotta work 5-1 a.m. Byesie. Hola

this team is SNAKE BIT

no way

f***. here comes the steal, the sac and the sac.

f*** you baseball gods!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:12 PM) This is more about heading into the weekend series with them than anything else. we'll win 2 of 3, after we sneak out of Denver with a win.

highest and most overpaid utility man in the game? do something.

You guys worry about the cubs too much. they blow.

rios. yard. now.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 03:09 PM) I do like seeing the Elf up here. hope he's still got some magic left

Sale not a good fielder

THANK YOU, JUAN

nice day, Mark. Ride that 3-run dinger for all it's worth.
