They’re probably too deep for LeBron. #dickjoke

PRAISE THEO

Y’all know Joe Maddon walked Josh Hamilton with the bases loaded just a few years ago, right?

and yet both teams escaped with victories!

I think he's just stretching. At first glance I thought it was Joey C. But unfortunately it wasn't.

Ben Gordon was born in the UK.

Anthony Rizzo laughs at this

Oh don't get me wrong, I would ban Florida, too.

Ban California.

I shouldn't have laughed at this. But now I can't stop.

Am I wrong in thinking this injury occurs in the states far more often than in Japanese baseball? And why? Tanaka's workload was a lot heavier before he came to the Yankees. What's changed?

Good eye. And it's an 80's logo, right? #oldschool

June sold Oakland on Hammel.

They don't need stellar pitching though, at least not this minute. They won't be serious contenders until 2016, and with Baez, Bryant, Russel, Rizzo, Castro, Solar, Almora, and Alcantara, they'll be scoring 10 runs a game, every game. Their offense is going to be devastating.

I'd be interested to see how this compares to strikeout rates as well. Hitters seem to strike out a lot more these days, and that only aids in the no-hitter bids.

He's just pissed that the Cubs kicked his ass and swept the series.

Up 5 against the White Sox? What the hell, SEND HIM!

And Tim Lincecum

That's EXACTLY what I said. He needs to charge that damn ball! He did the same thing on Portugal's first goal. He just stood there and waited. Attack the ball and reduce the angles.
