Hell, a pitcher who only gives up 11 earned runs in a game actually helps MY pitching stats!

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. In that case, I hope I'm playing you next week!

Wow! Just thought i'd share with you Morneau's stats in that double-header.

6-10, 6 R, 3 HR, 9 RBI

But still wasn't enough to do any real damage as your guys turned it up a notch too. Also I missed out on Kornerko's 4-7, 2, 1, 2 on the bench. Grrr...

So it's tied 5-5 with 2 days to go. I need my pitchers to step up this weekend. Big Z and Big Kaz c'mon fellas!

Bill:

Are you sure we can't count those 15 ER this week??

I need all the help I can get!!!

As much as I'd like to, I'm afraid it's against the rules...

Jammer,

That's why I love the Phililies. Back in 1972, when I was 13, I was a Tigers fan (still am), but there was this Phillies team that won only 59 games. Steve Carlton a southpaw won 27 of them!!! So I loved those loveable losers and adopted them as my team. They finally won a world series in the 80's with Larry Bowa, Pete Rose, Mike Shmidt, and a few others.

So the loser label doesn't bother me.

Actually, I do have a story to go with that, but I'll share it another time since it will just give you guys more ammunition to use on me.


Webz,

Looks like I took almost all the pitching cats somehow. Great match that fell my way 8-2. Your hitters had an incredible 6 homers today to tie me in that category.


Woody,

You are the only team I still haven't beat this year (we tied last time). Go figure!! It's a short week. Anything can happen. Be ready. I want revenge. What are you...like 45 games back at the all star break. No wonder you aren't having any fun. I'll put Barry Bonds in my roster just for kicks.

Everyone in the league:

Take heart. It's only the regular season. Not sure how I got so far ahead of the 2nd place team...what..over 17 games? Good job Roscoe. I'll remember to share a glass of my victory champagne with you in September.
I can suggest a place where you guys can buy discount binoculars so you don't totally lose sight of me. Let me know.

I don't care what you say, you're a mess to deal with!!

We'll see how the second half goes.

Enjoy your ride while you can. It will come to an inglorious end all too soon.

And with your lack of humility, it will be all the harder to take.

Isn't there a rule somewhere that your winning percentage has to be above .375 before you can talk trash?

I thought I remember reading that somewhere.
