I want to feel bad for Heath Bell but he sold his soul to the devil by signing with the Marlins.

I hope not. Might want to make sure he didn't actually eat any bricks.

I read the derecho means side way rain/wind. True?

Spanish for straight. They bring a lot of wind but some types (serial/hybrid) also spawn tornadoes. The issue is they are unpredicable. I still don't unplug anything but they get my attention. You get plenty of warning on tornadoes normally.

If the Phillies are done, root for the Phillies otherwise you want the Mets to win because they're at home. Teams win their home games for the most part and you want the divisional wins to be spread out evenly. You root for the home team on the assumption that the road team will win it's divisional games at home, thus spreading out the wins.

Spanish for straight.

Really? It also means right, as in right turn, and right, as in political right.

Strong as Hell recovery by Zimmermann. Maybe I'll stop spazzing out on him. He keeps getting strikeouts and great things are coming.

If you want to see a freaked up storm, check out a Mesocyclone or Ball Lightning.

Straight like direct. I think that alternate meaning is for Mexico and Central America only. I'll give you my Spanish isn't great.

The Phillies look weak but I don't think they should be counted out yet. I was looking at the seasons of the 05 Astros and 07 Rockies the other day for comparison, and they were in fairly similar positions as that of the Phillies right now at the same point in their seasons. Interestingly enough, this very week was about the time those teams got back up close to .500.

I think if the Phillies have a bad week, you can pretty much count them out, but I'd wait until the all star break.
