I say AL takes it. 5-3. Mo with the save.
I predict at least one All Star, likely a pitcher, will sustain a serious injury, leading to the (re)awakening of the debate over in-season “exhibitions”.
National League will be on the verge of winning, when suddenly…. ARod and Kate Hudson put out word that they’re about to announce their engagement on ESPN. The stadium empties, as the baseball world’s attention is drawn to the World Wide Leader. Not enough players remain to finish the game. Bud declares the game a tie, and announces he will officiate ARod’s wedding, and that Scott Boras will give the groom away.
Remember, this time it counts, bitches.
Howard is gonna do something
it might be a walkoff grannie or it might be tearing his ACL…but something
Here’s a question for you …. if Pete Rose wiped out Ray Fosse in the 2009 ASG, would Selig suspend Rose?
(snark alert)
That flag is made in China.
(end snark alert)
[3] oh, and Manny Ramirez will announce his engagement to Selena Roberts…
but nobody will notice.
[5] Gritty play, no suspension!
I throw down the gauntlet (sp?): The Yankees must do everything possible to trade for Roy Halladay. A staff of Doc, CC, AJ, Andy and Phil would bring us a championship..the team is very close, but bringing in a killer like Doc would put us over the edge.
Joba, Melky, A-Jax and cash for Doc & Vernon Wells…Jays get two MLB ready players + a solid prospect, they dump Well’s awful contract and save millions..
fox doesn’t want to show that someone other than gwb can throw a ball all the way from the mound to home plate
[2] prolly be halladay swingin’ the bat or runnin’ the bases…
Ichiro singled? i’m shocked!
there goes the no-hitter …
over/under on Cap’n grounding into a DP?!
OH NOOOO!!!
that sounded bad. real bad. : (
Lincecum is Mitch Kramer from Dazed and Confused. And after the drilling of Jete, he needs a definite paddling.
[8] yeah, but then we’d be stuck w/ Vernon’s massive contract and recent suckitude. plus, Doc’s right-handed and older than Johan. plus, the Blow Jays aren’t giving time for an extension…
Mauer’s gonna go yard here…
[14]
I was only kidding in [2], really!
[17] and by yard, he listened to me literally – the ball went three feet!!! ; )
Who’s Doc gonna plunk to avenge his new shortstop?
that was “teh” awesome!
[18] if he’s hurt, it’s on YOU!!! ; )
It’s plays like that that prove the A.L is superior and the N.L. will continue their downward spiral. : )
error by the Great Pujols?!?!
i hate skinny kids with long hair! ; )
did hamilton really just DIVE into first??? he must like Melky…
[24] Hey! That hurts…
[26] are you skinny w/ long-hair, too?! i sure am…
i love this Hanley kid. i hope he stays relatively healthy and has a loooong career.
[27] skinnyish, but me lady made me cut my hair recently..”if you can’t take care of it properely, you can’t have it” etc etc..still mid-length though, thankfully I am no longer at Monolith Japanese Company Inc., so I can dress and look casual now!
ARod didn’t even make it as the backup 3Bman? Who got that spot?
how do tim mccarver, joe morgan, steve phillips, eric young, buck martinez and fernando vina have jobs in MLB?!?! : /
Angels hot to trot for Halladay By BOB ELLIOTT, SUN MEDIA
… thinks the Yanks are #2 in the Halliday competition.
ANGELS 5-2
YANKEES 3-1
Yankees may be a third-place team, according to one scout who saw them in Anahiem. They need a starter and are looking at Ian Snell of the Pirates. Yanks could move Phil Hughes, plus prospects.
CARDINALS 9-2
PHILLIES 4-1
[30] One of the Obama girls. Who’s ARod?
[29] that’s awesome! no girl can ever make me cut my hair! i understand about cleaning it up though. mine’s approaching my waist, but i need to cut a good 6 inches…very soon! i cut over a foot a few years ago and donated it to Locks of Love. GREAT cause, and it was a mitzvah, but i can’t cut that much again – too traumatic!
yeah, at my advanced age, it’s becoming “skinny-ISH”, as opposed to rail thin. i recently broke 140 lbs, for the first time ever!!! : (
[31] THAT’S the announcing team tonight?? yuck..
[35] no, it’s t-mac w/ joe buck. just made me think of the other crapitude on the air for MLB…
I wish baseball was pure again …. no turf …. no dh … no roids … no greenies …
sigh
[37] but before there were no greenies, there were…
no blacks, no latinos, no japanese players.
then again, there was no tim mccarver and THAT is a time i’d like to visit! ; )
[35] Jazz Tokyo – going back to the earlier Thurman thread of the day…
REG-GIE, was – and still is – HUGE in my house. but Reggie was my older brothers’ guy and i needed to have one of my own. Thurman was my captain, he was involved in all the plays, so he was there on all the pitches and on my tv screen in queens (Far Rockaway) and i guess i dug his fu-manchu-like ’stache.
we had an awesome Reg-gie poster hanging in our room and i had a GREAT Reggie t-shirt, but Thurman was my first idol. i always loved him and emulated his corkscrew swing from a VERY early age, but i never idolized him.
Obama speaks beautifully. he’s an orator.
that broken bat sounded really weird…
T-Mac is a MORON. just said Victorino is the FIRST position player to come out of Hawaii. um, no. come on down, Benny Agbayani!!!
ooh, that was messy!
and i’m talkin’ to myself again… : ~
Prince Fielder, is at least TWO of me!
[39] That’s great, I had a Reggie poster too, and of course many Reggie-bars..I remember my aunt bying me a picture of him in an Angels uniform..it just wans’t the same though..
[41] Benny plays here with Bobby V! He’s very popular with the fans.
[44] i don’t like caramel, but the 2nd carnation of Reggie bars freaking RULED!!! i bought them by the box in the mid-90’s. i wish they still made ‘em…
[45] i knew Benny was in Japan!
ugh, how in the hell did Angel Hernandez draw an All-Star invitation??? he’s a terrible umpire!!!
[41] And what about Mike Lum? Is outfielder not a position player?
[47] wow, good call! yeah, Timmay said there have been 3 pitchers from Hawaii but Victorino was the first ever position player. of course, no one corrected him. ugh. : /
[47.48] Whatever happened to El Sid? Did he return to Hawaii??
nice inning for buehrle, with assistance from jetes and tex. beuhrle for 300? he’s a long ways off, but i guess he’s got a shot…
