This fucking Cubs game today. Lackey hit what felt like everyone in the White Sox lineup, KB was tossed for making a peep about a called strike 3 when that pitch was so far inside that it was ridiculous to even think it could be a strike, Happ got hit by a pitch later, Hawk suggested that someone go after Lackey or Lester in the parking lot, and...yeah. It's been a game.

Add to the fact that the White Sox pitcher Carlos Rodon had 11(!) K's through 4 innings!  And he still managed to give up 4 runs and is about to take the big, fat L.

The Brewers won a game somehow. The road to the WS is back on! I haven't decided what WS stands for yet. Waffle Stand? Do any stadiums sell waffles?

There should be a Dusty Baker emoji that can be used like the clapping hands one in between each word whenever a pitcher is announced going on the DL.

 

"Strasburg Dusty Baker is Dusty Baker going Dusty Baker on Dusty Baker the Dusty Baker DL Dusty Baker"

The Rays are set to acquire lefty reliever Dan Jennings from the White Sox, reports Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times (on Twitter). Tampa Bay is sending first base prospect Casey Gillaspie to the White Sox in return for Jennings. ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick first reported that the Rays were closing in on a trade for a left-handed reliever

Casey Gillaspie had been in BA's Top 100 at the start of the season but wasn't in their midseason update (And he was the 3rd ranked Rays prospect again per BA)

By the way, if you didn't see, Beltre got tossed last night after he was told to get back in the on deck circle... Which he then dragged to where he was standing.

Adrian needs to never retire. And I might add, the ump was 100% right to throw him out for this.

Why do you hate FireThunder's posts?

Or were you too distracted by Brock ejaculating fireworks?

I've known him since back when we were both on the Delphi boards.  

He knows why.  

(also yes.)

There was an article on Deadspin on how the Yanks might be interested in Stanton, and I'm like, no shit, EVERYBODY would want to add Stanton to their team. . . .

#fakenews

Seriously though, the Marlins have said they have taken calls about basically everyone on the roster.

Moving Stanton would require him to waive his No Trade (which he has reportedly refused to do) and for Miami to receive an absolutely massive haul (Major Leaguers under control & top prospects) AND the receiving team would have to take on Stanton's ridiculous deal. 

Stanton's not going anywhere.

He got the Pujols deal, but they gave it to him when he was still young. Meanwhile, everyone is getting to see the wonders of the Brewers Bullpen today. Oh boy. Note, Blazek is not a starter.
