Idea...

Chase Halladay like Burnett yesterday.

by getxstoked on Jun 8, 2008 1:02 PM EDT   0 recs

Good news...

Steve Phillips picked Halladay for that Double Play competition they do on Baseball Tonight (basically, it’s bare-bones fantasy baseball). And, you know, Phillips is a moron. So maybe that’s a big ol’ jinx for Roy.

yea but who's his competition?

John Kruk? he isnt exactly a winner

Trust me

Next to Phillips, Kruk looks like Keith F’n Law.

you'd think the toronto announcers would know the O's names by now...

“a lineup including adam scott and miller”

...um…

yep

fed rolen a 97 mph fastball and finished him off with an 83 mph slider out of the zone on the next pitch.

I hope I come back to good news!

Second deck, baby

Just after Joe Angel related a story of Luke walking by the line-up card, pointing to Doc’s name saying, “Oh, boy”.

The O’s seem to be wearing a thick black band on their left sleeves. Is that a memorial for McKay?

McKay was a Maryland icon. Nice to see the club honor him.

Anybody else REALLY REALLY TIRED of hearing "Hey, this is Victor Martinez..."?

At this point I’d rather hear “Hey, this is Petey the Toad Angelos…” or “Hey, this is the Dimbulb Pretend Commissioner, um, what’s my name again?...”

It's an mlb-dot-TV ad (or series of ads) that they WON'T STOP PLAYING. And Vic is the worst.

Should Bynum be on 3rd with that hit?

And WHY IN THE HELL is Markakis showing bunt?

WTF?

it wasn't very deep.

and I think to get halladay to elevate the ball a little, maybe?

by getxstoked on Jun 8, 2008 1:52 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Those two observations

make a lot of sense
