    Orioles Close To Extending Adam Jones

    This might be the first year I have to get my Tigers-Orioles tickets ahead of time. I'm glad for Baltimore. Even though they aren't my team, they have my favorite park to watch a game, and it's been dead for years until now.

    Orioles Close To Extending Adam Jones

    If they could get him locked up under 15 mil per year that would be fair for both.

    What should I do with this Darvish card?

    He's walk issues are strange considering his Japanese career. He had great control before. I wonder if the difference in how we handle off days here is making him more wild.

    Verlander No Hitter broken up in 9th

    No biggie. I just thought it was more common knowledge here. I didn't mean it to be mean.

    Verlander No Hitter broken up in 9th

    Are people really not aware that this isn't his first? He almost had 4 last year. One actually happened and three made it to the ninth. If he gets this one it will be 3 so far for him.

    MLB Publicly Announces Umpire Suspension

    I'm not saying it does. I was just noting an example where I feel umps sometimes intentionally have reactionary responses. It has to be tough for sure. Maybe this happens more than I know, but it would be more refreshing to see umps own up to mistakes like Joyce did. In the long run players...

    MLB Publicly Announces Umpire Suspension

    This doesn't excuse Lawrie for his actions, but part of me wonders if the ump intentionally called strike three on an obvious ball to send a message he didn't like being showed up by Lawrie running to first.

    2006 Cardinals - Where Are They Now?

    I still can't believe the Tigers lost that series. They had like 250,000 errors throwing to first.

    The Orioles seriously need to lock up Adam Jones and Wieters

    Adam Jones has been my fantasy kryptonite for years. I've always thought this is the year, and then it wasn't. So of course I finally give up on him, and he lives up to his potential. :evil:

    Is Bryce Harper Losing Religion in Autograph

    I think this is less of a trend in young guys signatures, and more of a trend in just how much volume they make them sign at once these days. Compared to the older players of the past who didn't sign mega sessions.

    Best prospects without a bowman chrome card....

    Drew Smyly is pitching awesome with nothing other than EEE.

    Need some help on a possible trade Pujols for Miggy

    For a keeper league this is a no-brainer. Even for a standard league without keepers you still do this. I don't see Pujols ending up with better stats this year for sure.

    Oil Can Boyd says frequent cocaine use cost him sleep, wins

    I love how he derailed his life, and then somehow convinced himself it was because he was black. That's a sure sign of someone in denial.

    Josh Hamilton- 5/5, 4 HR, 2B, 8 RBIs

    What's going on in Baltimore this season? Balls are flying out of there. I love watching games there. One of my favorite stadiums.

    Super Boxscore Bingo: Apr 14 (Team Batting)

    Nice! I'm down to 5, but I doubt I'm going to ever get DET game in 2:15 or less.

    Unofficial 2012 Detroit Tigers Thread - WS Champs or Bust

    Anyone else hate RP? More games are lost across the league in the last 2 innings, than the first 7. Since the start of May the SP has a 1.92 ERA, and they only have 2 wins to show for it. That, and the Tigers offense is horrible for some reason. They are only averaging a little over 3.5 runs a...

    Giancarlo Stanton is totally lost, time to go back to Mike

    His HRs recently have been lasers. It sounds like his bat is breaking on every one they are so crushed. It's good to see him back on track. I'm still kinda worried about Marlins Park though. I hope it doesn't diminish his HRs much. Considering he doesn't hit cheap HRs maybe it doesn't.

    THE GREATEST PLAYERS OF ALL-TIME TEAM - by position - Centerfield

    Yep, when he died in the 60's all the major papers headlined their articles with the greatest player ever died. It's seems weird for today's times, but HR power hitters weren't popular until later. That, and the negative personal aspects of Cobb have made his legacy fade over time.

    THE GREATEST PLAYERS OF ALL-TIME TEAM - by position - Centerfield

    This is one of my favorite Cobb stories. After enduring several years of seeing his fame and notoriety usurped by Ruth, Cobb decided that he was going to show that anybody could hit home runs if he chose to. On 5 May 1925, Cobb began a two-game hitting spree better than any even Ruth had...

    THE GREATEST PLAYERS OF ALL-TIME TEAM - by position - Centerfield

    I don't know how this could come down to anyone other than Cobb and Mays. Cobb had every record there was other than HRs when he retired. Batted over .320 for 23 straight seasons, and over .400 3 times. Also he is still the holder of the highest career batting average at .366. One of the...

    Pics from a recent trip to AT&T and Petco Parks

    I was watching that game where Yonder Alonso fell over the wall. They showed you on replay I'm sure of it. I bet I could find it in the mlb.tv archive. I can't remember when it happened in the game though.

    Haven't seen one of these in awhile (1990 Topps related)

    It's weird how right in the middle of mass production, there are two cards from 1990 Topps that are probably the rarest of all mass production cards.

    THE GREATEST PLAYERS OF ALL-TIME TEAM - by position - Second Base

    That's saying something considering the first HOF vote gave Cobb the most votes. If you go back in time, and look at what the current people of the day thought of the players then, Cobb was considered the best. It wasn't until later when the players were retired that Ruth started growing as a...
