O's-White Sox playing 2pm game tomorrow, CLOSED to the public….. also, upcoming series against Tampa switched to the Trop, but apparently the O's will still be the home team…..
Tomorrow's game will be good practice for playing at the Trop, which is empty on a regualr basis.
On the plus side, the O's get the revenue, though it won't be much.

I tuned in literally 2 seconds before Miggy's 400th HR. So glad I caught it. I know, I know "HR totals post steroid era". . . It's still real to me, goddamnit!

Kscey Musgraves? The Jacksons? An Etch a Sketch? A cowboy hat? A retro lunch box? A DJ kitty kat face bag? I'm going to go with the Rays having the best promo schedule.

The Marlins experiment is fascinating to me. I think Jennings fails miserably, but don't confuse that with me hoping he succeeds. I just don't think he will…

anybody notice those ads on ESPN called "Rule 661" all about AROD?? Seems like they are MLB ads… I'm surprised they are using him in promo ads for baseball….

Josh Hamilton 0-3, with 2Ks.
Still a bargain for the Rangers.

yeah, when someone else is paying almost your entire salary, that's almost always a bargain…. especially when you're gonna get the chance to beat them multiple times the rest of your tenure…..

Unless, you're paying them to have him in their lineup to actually hurt their team:
0-4, 1K. Now 0-2 with RISP.
(I don't actually believe this, mind you, and I would have traded him to the Astros if I this were the case)

Mets trade OF Kirk Nieuwenhuis to Angels for cash considerations.
I'm not going to lie - my first response was "Who?"

there might be some kernel of truth in this…. I don't think they would've traded him within the division unless they thought he was pretty much done, kinda like the Eagles trading McNabb to the Redskins…. the Eagles ended up being right, guess we'll get a chance to see if the Angels were…..
