Why am I the one starting the daily?

Where is Rock hiding?

These and many other questions to be answered next week, same Bat time, same Bat channel.

Wainwright done for the year. Nathan done for his career. NL maybe goes to DH over pitchers getting injured batting? Manfred wants to bring everyone back who has ever been banned. Ventura only 7 games. Samaria only 5.

 

[obxyankeefan]

Yankees 11-8
Rays 11-8
Red Sox 10-9
Orioles 9-10
Blue Jays 9-10



Competitive or do all 5 just suck?

For Moxie the Giants riding a one game winning streak but still in last on the less coast.

 

[bksballer89]

Yanks went 5-2 against the top 2 teams

 

[packerzrule]

Brewers to begin winning streak

 

[Rock Strongo]

worst pitching in baseball by 4 miles

Crying over how good the Mets are? Actually, crying over all those errors committed in a winnable game last night.

Plus, it's in the Yankee fan's blood to start the daily thread the day after they have something to crow about. Lose two games to Tampa and you guys will be back in the bushes.

No mention of that commanding victory from the Padres yesterday?

Typical.

Nobody is concerned with AAA in here.

Nah the Yankees should win two out of three against the Rays. Now the Boston series could get ugly.

San Diego still has a team? I thought they moved to St. Louis or Oakland or something

I think it's a very competitive division. I don't think there are any great teams in there, but I don't think there are any shitty ones either.

Bosox have had pitchers named Embree and Hembree within the past decade.
That's the most interesting thing I can say about them at this point.

Rays are looking better than I expected, but it's still early.

Where does Bartolo inject? Hip or buttocks?

I have a confession to make. The pick 'ems aren't really fair. I developed a program that analyzes player projections, mixed with current performance and splits, and then uses those projections to simulate each game 100 times. I'm simply picking the ones that have the highest probability to win.

Yeah, but it's only the AL East. How would they do in a respectable division?

Should?
