Kevlar v2.0 posted:Cubs/Braves game postponed due to rain. Second one this week that needs to be made up. On the other hand, I'm pleased because the game I'm going to see in May was going to be a Hammel start, the first postponement turned it into a Lackey start (), and now this makes it a Lester start. If I can get one more postponement and no makeups/injuries between now and Memorial Day weekend, I'll get to see Arrieta.

They don't really play double headers on Sundays, as it's a getaway day. Also, I need to read that lovely Krauthammer article. I'm sure it will enrage me in a totally productive way.

Popete posted:Because you asked. What's especially funny about the Braves is that Ryan Howard hit a Homer last night to tie the Braves season total, while playing so badly that no one would ever consider trading for him.

Reformed Pissboy posted:This rules. So many good quotes: quote:Josh Bard: I was in my place in Boston with my 8 1/2-month pregnant wife and 2-year-old son. I got the call around noon that I was traded and had to leave my wife, which was very hard, and go to the airport to get a flight to San Francisco. quote:Bard: While in line at the airport the guys in front of me were just crushing me, talking about how bad I sucked at catching the knuckleball. I didn’t say a word. They had no idea I was standing behind them. And they were right. I did stink at catching the knuckleball. That must have sucked for Bard. It's tough to think of players as human beings instead of good guys or bad guys depending on what colour uniforms they're wearing. But I guess that's the business.

Since having their season declared over due to a 1-5 home stand the Mariners have won 5 straight series. Really really trying to curb my enthusiasm. *breathes into paper bag* Also it's May! Time for a new thread.

i know better than to be excited about the Phillies being 4 games over .500, i'll maintain that they've at least graduated to ".500 team" this year and be happy with that all the water's out of the boat, and almost all the heavy weight is thrown overboard, and the ship is starting to.. float ever so precariously?? it may one day reach dry land
