Who's your team? I'll admit I am a Brewers fan, so cue the Ryan Braun/steroids jokes.
I know it's still early, but the Tigers are looking like they are the best team in the big leagues right now. I just wonder if that will translate to postseason success & by that I mean a World Series victory?
Yu Darvish almost made history last night. I don't know if Red Sox fans are happy or not that Ortiz busted up the no-no....
I wonder how Lefty is doing after his Phillies got no-hit today. Josh Beckett of all people at age 34 tosses a no-no....

I haven't watched enough Red Sox games to give any insight on what's wrong with them, but as I look at the score of the game right now & see that the Braves are putting it on them, I was thinking it's amazing how fast you can go from the penthouse to the proverbial outhouse.
10 straight losses, probably 11 after today, but I have to think last year's championship has bought John Farrell some goodwill in Boston. Plus it's still too early to throw in the towel on the season just yet, but my goodness, what a rut for Boston...
What a difference a month makes. Seems like it was a month ago, I was ready to anoint the Tigers and put them in the World Series--now they trail the Royals by a half game in the Central.What a difference a WEEK makes. Tigers back in front. And over in the NL the Brews are holding tough on 1st. But I expect the Reds will make a push real soon. They got Votto and "Baron" Latos back and the Hamilton kid is running ape-sit over the league.
And for all the money they spent, will the Dodgers be happy if they have to get into the playoffs via the Wild Card? Of course, the division race is not over yet, but it's hard for me to imagine the Giants giving it up...
Tim Lincecum does it again. Another no-hitter against the Padres, but unlike last year, he didn't need to throw 200 pitches to do it. :D
The last Giant to have 2 no hitters was........hold on to your butts.........Christey Mathewson. :o
Dodgers and Tigers tonight--a possible World Series preview?That's very possible, but the div, races are so close it's damn near impossible to call now.
On the real baseball scene the A's, already the best AL team may land Price, and over in the NL the Brewers are finally showing signs of normality as the yapping curs that are Pittsburg, Cincy and St. Louis are finally beginning to nip at those cheesy heels.
I think the A's are tired of being a great regular season team only to lose in the ALDS every year. I would not be surprised if they landed Price, as I really think they are in all or nothing mode.After watching them beat the Giants last night I'm becoming a believer. But then, what the Tigers did to the Dodgers, a team I dislike was pretty impressive as well. If I had any, I would bet money that they will meet in the ALCS this time.
I see that the Bosox gave AJ Pierzynski his unconditional release and that the Cardinals have him starting today. I don't get it. I thought he was a solid ballplayer. What's the 411?
BoSox doing some more house cleaning--Jake Peavy traded to the Giants. I guess the towel has been thrown in on the 2014 season for Boston?
I'm curious Lefty, what do you think the Phillies should do with Ryan Howard?I was thinking of asking him the same question. I think he will be picked up by one of the LA teams. What have they got to lose? Not money.
The 411 is he's 37 years old, was signed on a one year deal, was on a losing team that's going nowhere and the playing time would be better served for a young prospect (Christian Vasquez).I see. In the last few days I have learned that he's also some kind of team pariah. But the Cards are desperate for a catcher right now.
Jon Lester has been traded to the Athletics, perhaps sewing up the Western division for Oakland....They will cakewalk now! Hamel is staying with the Phils I see. As I type, Price is still a RAY. He was knocked around for the 1st time in a while yesterday.
David Price headed to Detroit--Scherzer, Verlander and Price as your big three in October; that seems pretty damn scary, even with all the moves Oakland made to strengthen their rotation. This might be one hell of an October postseason coming up...You beat me to the punch Diesel! I was going to say the exact thing. Poor Oakland goes all in for the ammo to beat the Tigers and now this. Just wow!
Take a read at the Talk Sox forum. Real baseball fans there.
http://www.talksox.com/forum/
Do you really think that trade will effect the rivalry? I don't think anything could change that in our lifetime. As to Lackey returning to Boston, I agree that it's very likely. The Cardinals are a no fun type of team and losing the all fun Kelly can't help.
I think Lackey will do well down the stretch for St. Louis. He's a good number two pitcher, and will eat a lot of innings. Looking forward to seeing how Craig and Kelly do.
This all said, along with a Price going to Detroit, the AL East won't be the same. Shit, Boston and New Uork were trading partners today, the '03 - '07 glory days of the rivalry are done.
This is shaping up to be one of the best MLB regular seasons I can remember...
Heh, fond memories, indeed. :P I wonder what Bela Lugosi was doing in 1903? Had he immigrated to America yet; it's been awhile since I read any of his bios...
Just saw on MLB Network, Garrett Richards getting carted off the field. It looks bad; but hopefully it's nothing too serious. This would be terrible for the Angels if he goes down for any length of time....
I saw it happen live, the pained look on his face and the time it took to get him off the field was disturbing. I hope he's OK, but I don't think it looks good.I agree. It's a disaster for the Halos.
Watching the highlights--it's not everyday you see Uehara blow a save; he's a lot like Kimbrel as far as being almost automatic. It happens sometimes...
What's up with this new Sox aquisition? I hear they paid a lot for him and he's not a young man. Must be some kind of player!
As to Oakland and Detroit: For all their big dealing they are 9-11 and 10-11 in August. Both have lost their division leads.
How about those Cubs sweeping the mighty Orioles?While being in complete rebuilding mode the Cubs are starting to show some form of life. I think in a year or two they could be a force to be reckoned with.
The Yankees appear to be the talk of the town today. The fact that they are still in the playoff hunt is remarkable, given their offensive woes and their pitching troubles. This week could be make or break for the Yanks as far as their shot at getting back into the Wild Card race or dare I say, chasing down the Orioles. At KC, Detroit and Toronto... play ball!They really do have a chance. Tanaka is returning soon.
How about them Angels--looking at a possible 4 game drubbing of the A's. How long ago was it that many pundits were putting Oakland in the World Series? I guess it could still happen--after all, all you have to do is get in the tournament and you have a chance, but right now, Oakland looks to me like they may be another "one and done" come October...And they did it! Oaktown fans have got to be sick right now. Over in the NL... SF is hanging tough behind LA and the Cards caught the Brewers. Tied on September 1st kind of makes the previous 5 months feel like an extended spring training, and it all starts now.
Today is the last day any trades can be made (through waivers), and in theory, to qualify for the playoffs, one must be on the roster today.Congrats to the Phils for their combo no hitter yesterday to squash the Braves and put them a game and a half off the WC pace!
Of course, the big news today is the Phillies vs. the Mets, where the loser (which is really both teams) moves into the N.L. East basement. [pie]
Congrats to the Phils for their combo no hitter yesterday to squash the Braves and put them a game and a half off the WC pace!
After 130 games in first, the "new look" Cubbies knocked the Brewers out of it. The Cardinals were the benefactors as they assumed 1st place in the Central, which they had shared twice for only a matter of hours. This is most likely Milwaukee's death knell as their team MVP this year, torrid hitting Carlos Gomez, is sitting out due to a hand injury incurred on a vicious swing the previous day.
Have you ever seen this guy swing? The guy sometimes falls down from swinging so hard!

Cowboy Joe West laid down the law the other day--it will be interesting to see how MLB handles this situation as far as whether or not Joe gets some kind of discipline for actually putting his hands on Papelbon--not that Pap didn't make an ass out of himself, but Joe West seemed to only exacerbate the situation....
And as I type the spoiling machine that is the Phillies are shutting out the A's. Man! Nothing has went right for them since those trades. They may not even hold on to the 2nd WC spot.
Yesterday, Jerome Williams became the first pitcher in MLB history to beat a team three times while pitching for three different teams in the same year (the two Texas teams plus the Phillies).
Tradition has it that whenever the Phillies and the wrong team that left Philly face each other, the home team wins 2 out of 3. So that guarantees an A's win today.

You know your team(s)....Phils out hit 'em 13 to 9 and still lost. :-\
I think most of the major sports have proven over the last decade or so--just get into the tournament and you have a shot; not so much in the NBA, but still, just get in and you can take the whole thing.
Which is why I would not count out the A's if they got in--but given they way they've looked the last few weeks, another Oakland "one and done" would not surprise me at all.
If I had to put money on it, I would go with an Orioles/Dodgers series--although I know there are some (maybe many) who want to see a Beltway series....
Well, as of today, the Yankees are officially eliminated from playoff contention...
[whoo]
Well, as of today, the Yankees are officially eliminated from playoff contention...Have no fear, they won't get past the Dodgers. The Cards can't hit baseballs.
[whoo]
The only thing that would possibly be better is if somehow, the National League could finagle the rules to keep the Cardinals out of the playoffs--but I guess you can't have everything... ;)

Don't know if we have any Royals fans here--but congrats to them and the fanbase in Kansas City. After 29 long years, finally some late September/Early October baseball...
An interesting ALCS would be Royals/Athletics. There has to be some old KC Athletics fans still around.
Well, not the ALCS, but it is tonight's Wild Card game. It would really be interesting if the A's were able to scrounge up some old KC outfits to rile up the crowd.Yeah, I meant Wild Card of course. The Cards can't get past Kershaw and Grenke in a 5 game series. There's not enough *Pixie Dust* in Never-Neverland for that to happen. But if Wainwright can out pitch CK in game one, they could make it interesting.
I am not making any predictions, but I will be happy if St. Louis does not win it all, and if Jayson Werthless or Bryce Harper strikes out to end a series. Or even Luke Harper. Or Erick Rowan. Or Bray Wyatt. :-\
If this 5-3 score holds up, I'm guessing Ned Yost will be getting raked over the coals come tomorrow...
The announcers said it right. Putting some rookie starter, no matter how talented, in a sixth inning tight relief situation in the playoffs when he hasn't done that all year is not a smart move.
What a fucking game! Huh, Metal? Just WOW!
Now it's time to see if the O's bullpen can live up to their regular season numbers. We saw how the Royals bullpen imploded the other night...Miller wanted no part of Cabrera! :)
Miller wanted no part of Cabrera, but he schooled the rest of the Tigers lineup....Tell me about it! 15 K's per 9.....I never heard of any shit like that! And what is the guy...about 6'8"?
Hmmm, Buck pulling Miller--I thought he would let him at least finish the 7th inning the way he's been mowing 'em down.Yeah. Managers these days can't leave well enough alone. OH! That was a surprise! JJ!
That guy pitched to Cabrera. ;D
Here comes the Tigers bullpen and perhaps some gasoline being poured on the mound....YEP
It's hard for me to imagine the next game being as good as this...Bring in the Fat Lady now.
It's hard for me to imagine the next game being as good as this...Do you mean the next game tonight?
Btw, whatever happened to runs coming at a premium in the postseason. Yeeesh...You're right....there's been plenty....BTW...they said we can go to TNT to see the other game now.
OMG! I just don't have the patience to watch a no scoring contest. I need action, and plenty of it! So far so good ;)
A Royals Vs. Orioles ALCS would have been unthinkable 4 or 5 years ago. This is great.Son of a bitch, I fell asleep in the bottom of the 7th and missed a great end-game! A few thoughts: I remember last year hearing from the talking heads that the Royals were going to be good this year (tips hat)......My biggest surprise was the play of Aoki. My god what a ballplayer! I've seen him get key hits on Baseball tonight, but his defense....what can I say?
A heads up--two of today's games are on the new Fox Sports 1 channel. So if you don't know which channel it's on, just click here....Thanks. I would have been scrambling to find it! It's early, but it looks like an underdog post season, with the first 3 games going to the lower seed. But that will change today.

Damn that ball was crushed....Which ball?!! God dammit! I took out the trash, checked the mail, come back and Detroit scored 5 runs!!!! How!!? In 10 damn minutes!??
JD Martinez hit a 3 run homer which is the shot I was talking about, then Nick Castellanos hit a solo shot which basically chased the starter Chen from the game...MY god...no time taken for pitching changes? That was crazy quick...... Very nice DP there, got MC by a cunt hair at 1B! This is my kinda game. More runs please!
If Baltimore gets into that Detroit bullpen, then you may see a boatload of runs...(https://threestooges.net/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fussmariner.com%2Ffeatures%2F%2Fbaserunning.png&hash=91d27db4f25282fbf95c136a51ee3a86552a03f6)
Yep, but Anibal Sanchez may be an upgrade over Joba and the rest of those hacks in the Tiger pen...Yes...I've heard that name spoken plenty on Sports Center. My 1st real look at him.
Brad Ausmus pulling the plug on Sanchez when dude has been dealing--this could be one of those WTF moves, depending on who is coming out next from the pen? Don't really have any trust in the Detroit relievers, so we'll see how it goes....I don't believe what I just saw! ;)
Btw, this has to be one of the more entertaining slugfest I have ever seen...That's a winnah!
Did I read that right? Did Markakis homer? Moustakis, Markakis.....Yiayia! Greek power baby! Gotta represent my heritage.You must be that Greek kid I heard about that ran away from home because he didn't like how he was being reared! (wah, wah, waaah)
But on a more serious note, Detroit's bullpen blowing it two years in a row.
The Cards may have fired the Dodgers up with that little skirmish that broke out. Now we'll see what Kershaw does with a lead....Seems to have affected Waino. :-\
Unreal. Cards down by 4 in the 6th, now LA down by 4 in the 7th. The "Two best pitchers in baseball" were clubbed to death. This is a very odd post season.
Cardinals 10, Dodgers 9
Wow!! What a game! As a Cardinal fan I've been wondering all season why the heck Trevor Rosenthal can't pitch a 9th inning without allowing 2 or 3 base runners and making it a nail-biter? If I had been the manager of the Cardinals, I would have left Pat Neshek in the game to pitch the 9th instead of Rosenthal.
Oh well, at least they won... barely. I'd love to see a Cardinals/Royals World Series or Cardinals/Angels... with St.Louis winning it all no matter who they face! [cool]
I thought I was alone! I'm right there with you on LAA. But it would bug me if they went all the way. The $ they have to throw around make's Steinbruner look like a miser.
And then there's Pujols. I stopped liking that ego maniacal punk in 2009 when he started swinging from the heels in an attempt to stay ahead of Ludwick and Holliday, and his overall stats suffered. He cares more about money and fame and personal goals than the team, and everybody knew it. Molina was his only friend on the team.
He could have been the next Stan the Man in St. Louis, he could have had free lunch in Florida for life. They made him a great offer. But those stages were too small. I could go on and on about that cocksucker but I won't. Mike Trout needs to get the hell out of LA when he can. They won't win shit as long as Albert's there.
Oy! Pitching duel in the Capitol. >:(
Zimmerman with a 1-0 lead, 2 out in the 9th, walks a guy and is yanked. I like that. Screw the CG, bring in the fireman!
And the fireman tries to put out the fire with wet lacquer.Well, I liked the move at the time. :-[ That ump was indeed awful, and I, being an action guy hated that marathon FAIL job. 18 innings of futility. A double header of futility!
The only way to avoid controversy with that call to end the top of the 9th was for the Giants to win, and they did.
Vic Carapazza (which sounds like some kind of olive oil) must have gone to the Joe West School of Awful Umpiring.
Today may be the rare low scoring game between the Birds and Tigers--Svengarlic must be thrilled... ;)LOL...strangely enough, in the second inning of the game TBS went dark and has not returned. (all others work fine) So I'll just watch the NFL 'till time for the Royals.
I see that KC is kicking more Angel ass. I love it. And Metel's boy, Moustakas, went deep again. Man, it would be nice if both small market MO teams beat LA's.
STILL no reception on TBS!.......Hold it! I got it. It was out for 5 hours.
The Cards are like nuclear roaches--you can't kill 'em...I'll tell you that I'm confused. On paper the Reds are the better team and I figured they would take the division walking away. Solid rotation, good hitting, best defense around. Brandon Phillips is the best fielding infielder since Ozzie Smith. I've seen him make plays that defy description. They had a bunch of injuries, but so has the Pirates and Cards. If ever a manager should be fired, it's Price!
Yasshole Puke, or whatever he calls himself, is not in the lineup for the Dodgers tonight, replaced by Andre Ethier -- Ethier the bottle or the hammer.They're running Kershaw back out there on short rest instead of Danny Haren. If Kershaw tanks again, after knowing how bad he's been in post season games, the media will crucify Mattingly.
The Orioles and Royals get to sit around for 5 days, and wouldn't you know -- Friday's weather forecast for Baltimore is for showers.
Is it true, because the game was not on any channel I get, that Madison Square-Garden lost a postseason game? Hard to believe, Harry!
I imagine if the Cards close this out, Don Mattingly will be hung in effigy in Los Angeles...Magic Johnson should kick him in the nuts, and THEN fire his ass! ;D
Looks like tonight's game may be called on account of crap weather in Baltimore--add this on top of the fact that both teams have waited about what seems like 3 weeks to even try to begin the ALCS and I imagine both teams will be a little rusty whenever this series gets kicked off....Looks pretty bad. I hope they don't even try to start it. Brutal for the fans in the stands. Saturday has to be better.
Uh oh, shaping up to be a pitcher's duel in Baltimore tonight... ;)DOH! Almost had something going for the O's just now.
The Royals do a hell of a lot with what they have.
Could there be anyone outside of residents or natives of eastern Missouri, northern California, along with the umpires, rooting for the National League to win the World Series?Of course. Tennessee, Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Iowa, most of Illinois and Missouri. KMOX radio's been sending it's powerful signal to these states since the '30s. The Cardinal fan base is the largest in baseball, certainly in terms of area.

KC and O's are tied up again in the 6th, 5-5. Could this be yet another extra inning job? Hasn't KC been in 4 strait now? Whats the record???
If it is not the record I would be a bit surprised, but the 1980 NLCS featured 4 straight "overtime" games after the Phillies won 3-1 in the first game:Aha! The reason that I didn't remember that is because I hit the road for my first cross country motorcycle trek that week. When I settled down in California I was just in time for the World Series. I was rooting for the Phils to beat the Royals. I felt bad for you guys because of the fucking Gene Mauch gave 'ya in that bizarre '64 season. ;)
10/8: Astros 7, Phillies 4 (10 innings)
10/10: Astros 1, Phillies 0 (11 innings)
10/11: Phillies 5, Astros 3 (10 innings)
10/12: Phillies 8, Astros 7 (10 innings)
I've learned never to count out the Cards, no matter what the odds say--I am rooting for the Giants, but I wouldn't bet any green on them taking this series...I know what you mean, but the last time they pulled a rabbit out of a hat, in 2011, they had Lance Berkman, Pujols, Molina, a red hot David Freese AND Chris Carpenter at the top of his game. This team is a lesser version of Larry's Whiz Kids. Far less. [cry]

It is difficult to tell who is despised more overall in Philly -- Gene Mauch or Ruben Amaro Jr.That's right! I forgot he was the Angels' skipper too. What's the 411 on Ruben?
Speaking of California, ask Angels' fans how they feel about Mauch, who managed to blow the 1982 and 1986 ALCS needing 1 out of 3 wins to clinch it. Of course, he did not do as bad a job with them as he did in the last 2 weeks of the 1964 season -- because he did not have enough time to use just 2 pitchers.
In the 1970s when I used to listen to a lot of other NHL teams' games on the radio, with Boston's WBZ and Bob Wilson coming in clearest, KMOX actually came in very well many nights, with Dan Kelly prefacing commercial breaks with "THIS is St. Louis Blues' hockey."
That's right! I forgot he was the Angels' skipper too. What's the 411 on Ruben?
Congrats to the Royals--now I hope their momentum doesn't get shot as they wait around for the NLCS to finish...Cards have their backs to the wall. If they don't win tonite, Bumgarner will beat Wainwright's dog ass like he stole something tomorrow and it's ALL over.
I think it's going to be a short World Series--Giants in 5...I don't think so. KC has a pen. I look for an epic 7 game job. On the other hand, it would be cool if the Royasl ran the table.
Oh, don't get me wrong--I would like to see a 7 game classic; I'm not pulling for either team, but the Giants have the World Series pedigree and Bochy is maybe the best manager in the game come this time of year. And having said all that, the Royals probably will sweep... :DWell, Diesel, I'm going to root for KC if they win the first game. When they lose a game I'll switch to the NL team. Umm....can I do that? :o
I know this may sound screwy--but is it possible that Bruce Bochy is still one of the more underrated managers in the big leagues? Or maybe the Giants are just underrated, period...He WAS underrated, but he's getting his props now. What I find puzzling is that neither KC or SF displayed this degree of excellence during the regular season. I think it's the 1st time that two sub 90 win teams are in the WS.
I think baseball more than any other sport is proof that the playoffs are a complete crapshoot. Just get into the tournament and you have a puncher's chance....Exactly. I have an idea to improve the playoff system. It's flawed right now, making it too easy for a WC team to win it all, and stretching into November. Of course, I think every fan has that idea of a "better way".
And not to beat this point to death--but if my math is right, the Royals will have 6 days off before the start of the series. Hmmm.... ::)
And the Giants will have 5 days off before the start of the series [pie]LOL...that's a big touche'! ;D
I think baseball more than any other sport is proof that the playoffs are a complete crapshoot. Just get into the tournament and you have a puncher's chance....
I have a feeling this will be a quick series whichever way it goes--but I like the G-Men in 5. And why the heck didn't Posey slide. He would have been dead meat either way--but I thought he would try something to get around the catcher....My, my. Hunter Pence is a fucking monster, crazy eyes and all!
I was just thinking how nice it would be if we could get the World Series to be alternated between networks the same as the Super Bowl. I'm not a Joe Buck hater, but it would be nice to hear a different voice--an Al Michaels comes to mind--calling the Fall Classic....I feel 'ya, Deez....Al is good, but he's not really a baseball man.

Whenever Joe "Fill in the Blank That Rhymes with Buck" is on, I mute the sound and let the closed-captioning do the deed, just like last night when I watched just the top of the 1st inning.Most of America agee's with you on Jack's Buck. He doesn't bother me. The TV voice I least want to hear is Scully. I've had to listen to that nasal, sing-song voice my entire life. Vin does have one thing going for him though: he knows when to shut up at the right times. NOBODY else knows when to STFU.
Good game 3 going on right now.
I think the Royals could have scored if they would have sent the runner home in the bottom of the 1st--perhaps 1 run they will need later, who knows....
Pence is a monster. Period.
I'm thinking if tonight continues with KC steamrolling the Giants, then Game 7 might be kind of anti-climatic--kind of like Game 7 in the 2002 World Series.Steam rolling here! It sure likes there will be a game 7 now.

You're right, only one good game so far.Of course I agree, except that the late inning roller coaster nature of that game fairly did me in....an emotional wreck.
I still maintain game 6 of 2011 as the greatest game I ever witnessed.
I'm trying my best to appreciate what I'm watching now with Bumgarner, because we may never see a World Series pitcher like this in our lifetimes. Respect.True, but I'm hoping the Royals tie it up!
The Phillies of Philadelphia may have some relief on the way. A super duper prospect is heading North!
I have read a number of times about him. With $30 trillion in CONcast bucks, the Phillies could make a major bid for him, and Ruin Tomorrow Jr. could even make the offer en Espanol, but undoubtedly the 76ers would have a better chance of winning the NBA title in the next 3 years.Ain't it the truth! I'm thinking the Angels, with a diminishing David Freese on 3B will open the vault (or in their case, the petty cash drawer) to get the kid.
Yeah, he'll head north -- right up I-95 to the Skankees who will say to him, "Hey, yo! Bring us your best offer, and we'll triple it." Or the Cah-lee-forn-ya teams will tout the Spanish majority there.
