Another board I used to post at allowed you to rate posts with
one to five stars. That would have been a six.

Hard to believe you can go from a perfect game to those kind of
stats. Is it his head or his arm? And, yes, I know it wasn't
really a perfect game.
Is this something a change of scenery or new pitching coach can
fix? Not suggesting him for the Cubs...we have neither.

I think the perfect game was a fluke. He's never been that
good.

He's a AAAA pitcher.
The Cubs should contact the D'Bags about him ASAP.

Berkman and Holliday both left the Cardinals game with injuries
tonight (wrist and quad, respectively).

Interesting story from Minneapolis on how Harmon Killebrew may
have been the model for the MLB logo. It starts out saying he's
not and ends with the artist saying ""I had a bunch of
photographs. I can't swear that it wasn't Harmon,"

Twins backup catcher Drew Butera is hitting .108 in 25 games
this season. The other backup catcher, Rene Rivera, has one
single in 15 at-bats and is hitting .067 in six games. Rivera's
predecessor, Steve Holm, hit .118 in six games for the Twins.

Mike Adams of the Padres tells it like it is regarding Joe
West's umpiring crew:
“You really don’t expect anything less out of that crew. There’s
a reason [West and Angel Hernandez] were voted two of the top
three worst in the big leagues. It seems like they’ve always got
to be part of the game.”
