J Roll hits a leadoff homer.. mmm

 

[TallBill]

Ugh, time for the White Sox to maybe hit a baseball. I've been to 3 games already and 1 was fun cuz we won -- the other 2 because I was drunk.

Konerko got one for you.

GO TWINS!

 

[TallBill]

And Kotsay, and Beckham.. tied game. Glad we got away from the home run ball, oh wait.

 

[pyonir]

Holy shit...TallBill, did you just hear that girl sing? WTF? That was painful to listen to...

 

[raystorm]

An embarrassment at Citi Field. Mets are 2 - 4 and will face the Rockies and Cards next. They'll be 2 - 10 when they come back home only to get killed by the Cubs, Dodgers, Braves and Phils. Exciting. Maybe I was being a bit too generous predicting they would win 82 games. oops

 

[TheVrolok]

The Doc going back out to pitch a complete game.. only up by 1.. I don't like it.

 

[pyonir]

ChiSox finally got one. Pretty stupid to send Hardy home on that hit...but oh well. Twins home opener tomorrow in the new stadium! woot!

 

[MotF Bane]

Sox are stomping on KC right now. Should end up taking 2 of 3.

 

[TheVrolok]

Nice. The Doc gets his 150th W, 50th complete game.

 

[rcpratt]

Holy epic Tigers comeback. 6 runs down, score 1 in the 7th, 2 in the 8th, and 3 in the 9th for the walk-off 9-8 victory and sweep of the Indians!

 

[MotF Bane]

Beltre and Ellsbury ran into each other. Fail.

 

[TallBill]

I'll be in wrigleyville today for the cubs home opener. I wonder how many cubs fans will realize what hat I'm wearing:

 

[MetalMat]

Astros fall to 0-6 Swept by Giants and Philles

 

[TheVrolok]

Astros fall to 0-6 Swept by Giants and Philles

You had a shot against the Phils in that last one. I was getting worried.

 

[rcpratt]

The Tigers are the comeback kings.

 

[raystorm]

Toronto's Ricky Romero has something nice going on now against the White Sox

 

[rcpratt]

He certainly does, through 7 now. 12 Ks as well, goodness. Pitch count is getting up there, hopefully he doesn't tire out.

I live too close to Chicago so can't watch it on MLB.tv

 

[rcpratt]

No hitter averted...oh well.

 

[oogabooga]

MLB.TV is making my not so great week bearable. Thank you MLB.tv

 

[oogabooga]

Also, Maine is having a bad night in so many ways.

 

[raystorm]

FUCK JOHN MAINE. HE IS USELESS! He doesn't have his mid 90's rising fastball anymore and he can't even control his secondary crap. Awful. I predicted an 80 win for this team. I change it to 50.


The Mets are a poorly constructed team with a huge ass ballpark that is ill fit for sluggers. The countdown to Manuel's and Omar's dismissal is racing down. BLOW IT ALL UP

 

[raystorm]

Holy shit the Mets are bad. Forget 50 wins..I change it again to 40. Only the Astros and Orioles have worse records. Horrendous starting, average with RISP is like .100 and Jerry Manuel is a dope. I suppose if anything this bad start has put Jerry and Omar Minaya's "job on the line" countdown to warp factor 9. They'll get swept by the Rockies ( a damn fine team) tonight and then Albert Pujols will rape them this weekend. They'll be 2 - 10 by the time they come home next week. Fun times!

 

[jalaram]

After a beautiful start by the Rays (thx to the Orioles), now comes a better test with two road series with the Sox (Red and White). The big positive is that I'll get to see them in HD on NESN. :awe:

 

[TheVrolok]

I don't know if I should be happy that the Phils put up 14 runs.. or just terribly disappointed that they let up 7.
