Cliff Lee just made getting out three guys (Ramirez, Utley, Berkman) that have killed our pitchers in the past look like jokes

He reminds me of Lannan w/ more movement on his pitches.

Hey, did you guys hear?  He used to be in our organization!  We traded him for Bartolo Colon!  Who knew!

It'd sad to think that Josh Hamilton hit more home runs in the Home Run Derby last night than any National will hit ALL SEASON in 2008.



Hamilton used to play for the Reds, which is almost like saying he's a future National, except that Leatherpants never recruited him.

I'm not convinced of that.  With all he's been through, New York City probably wouldn't be a good place for him.  He's well aware of that.  Said he still doesn't trust himself.  I wouldn't be surprised if he turns down the Yankees offers.  I could be wrong about that though.

All Cubs fans just about went on suicide watch as Soto about snapped an ankle or something on Manny's on-deck circle equipment.

That was a lot of pressure on a hand with a round ball in it. Looked dangerous.

McCann should have started in this game. How does a CATCHER w/ a .940 OPS ride the bench in any game?
