RIP Lament.

And another blown save

Bruce Sutter can eat my shorts.

Yeah, I noticed.

If it makes you feel any better, Eddie Fisher went from being lights out for me to blowing every single save seemingly overnight.



But whatever. If the playoffs started today, you'd be the last team in. You're in a good spot for the second half.

Another split against a good team for the Jays. Clemens and Halladay are starting to turn things around, too. I'm confident I can have a strong enough second half to finish around the middle of the pack instead of the basement.

Here's a contender for strangest line of the season: John Olerud hits two triples in one game. I can oonly assume there was some terrible defense or a weird bounce in there for him to pull that off.

My explanation is that he was running extra hard because he felt so good inside over how proud you were of him for being an All-Star game starter.

It bounced off of his special helmet.

Fun Fact: Olerud hit just 13 career triples. He hit for the cycle twice.

Cant help but notice that Big Klu how has the ops over. 930, 10HR, and only 6 K's.

Hey You!

Did you vote big Klu?

I'll vote for Klu and his pipes.

Big Klu has as many HR as he has singles.

Why waste time stopping at first base?

Big Klu doesnt have time for that nonsense.

I just realized I missed entering total bases for 2 games. Big Klu's OPS is now .980

How does it feel to ride a 4-0 day into the All-Star break, Skitch?

I think im most encouraged by the 2nd straight strong start since i inserted Verlander into the starting rotation.
