IcePhoenix: Sep 18, 2005; Take me to your Shida

I have mlb.tv and even though I can't use a VPN at work, radio broadcasts through it aren't region restricted so I can listen to the Twins :toot:

My work at odd intervals will temporarily disable high video traffic websites like mlb.com so I won't be able to watch it on mlb.tv. Radio is probably my best option, but I can at least have gameday up :unsmith:

Looking at the perfect games list and seeing the team for which the first perfect game was pitched, I am officially petitioning Major League Baseball to change the Boston Red Sox to the Worcester Ruby Legs

Better, they were also known as the Worcester Worcesters.

Are they pronounced the same or was it some in-joke like they are the "Woo-ster War-chesters"?

Apparently annoyed that his health scare was mocked and turned into bathroom humor on the back pages and in the headlines back in New York, Mets Opening Day starter Matt Harvey declined to speak to the media after pitching on Wednesday.

davecrazy: Nov 25, 2004; I'm an insufferable shitposter who does not deserve to root for such a good team. Also, this is what Matt Harvey thinks of me and my garbage posting.

Dude was probably pissing blood and pretty freaked out. Don't blame him for not thinking it was as funny as the headline writers at the Daily News did.

Well yeah it is funny, but it just may create some awareness. Hell, I didn't know from haemorrhoids until 1980 and Kansas City

some haemorrhoid site posted:

In the 1980 World Series between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Kansas City Royals, George Brett was forced to leave the field during the sixth inning of Game Two due to experiencing extreme haemorrhoid pain.

Following the World Series, Brett was famously quoted, �My problems are all behind me!� when asked to comment on his haemorrhoid surgery. Brett says that afterward from October 1980 up until the time his infamous pine-tar incident occurred in July 1983, he was known as �The Haemorrhoids Guy.� Every time he stepped up to bat in a different city, Brett would hear players joking about haemorrhoids, which Brett eventually made the most of by agreeing to advertise for popular haemorrhoid treatment Preparation H.

The only reason to read Dave Cameron opinions are to contrast them with Jeff Sullivan's much better opinions later on.

the NY media has stirred poo poo regarding Harvey for loving years, I'm honestly surprised he even still talks to them at all. this is the same gluttony of people that pretty much poo poo on RA Dickey as he left the team.

Hyun Soo-Kim has refused a minor league assignment by the Orioles and the only options Baltimore has are to fit him on the 25-man or release him and eat his $7m/2y contract.

I think they're going to have to eat it at this point...isn't the roster basically set now? I don't see them adding him.

They could also see if a Korean team wants to pick him up to help mitigate the salary dump but Soo-Kim seems adamant on staying in North America so they're probably eating the contract. I think rosters have to be finalized by Sunday at noon.
