But he never had a top notch ERA either if you want to look at it like that.

The Giants lineup is kind of pathetic, by MLB standards. No offense. But Randall Delgado put in a more than solid effort today at least. Only surrendered one hit in 6 innings. Sadly that one hit was a home run. But still a great preformance. Added 4 Ks and a BB.
Edit...probably should have looked at the previous page. lol.

Also, he shoved on everybody in the playoffs. 4 starts. 0 earned runs. 1 ring. Beautiful.

Talk about undervalued.... Ryan Vogelsong has been amazing for my fantasy team! Go Ryan Go!!!
...and MOTH, Costanza is LEGIT. Thank you. ;)

He's still filling up those stat sheets. Even when he goes hitless, he manages to grab an RBI or a BB and SB. You gotta love it right now.

Cubs lose to Houston on a walk off grand slam. I hope Carlos Marmol ******* dies. If Big Z was with the club, Marmol would be staying in Houston when the Cubs leave town.

Nobody wants to hear a Phillies fan complaining right now. Save it for the playoffs.

Ryan Westmoreland, our former top prospect who underwent surgery for a cavernous malformation in his brain, will be facing live pitching for the first time in basically two years today. Great story and I wish the kid all the luck in the world. A lot of people didn't think he would ever get to this point, considering he was confined to a wheel chair and lost his vision for a time. It would be awesome if he could recover from it all and resume his career, regardless of the actual results at the plate.

That trade is looking really good for the Mariners, Furbush is probably a bottom of the rotation guy or a long reliever at worst and Wells has been outstanding. Still waiting on the player to be named later but supposedly it will be a fairly high prospect.

I apologize. It's hard to talk about anything here as a Packers and Phillies fan. I couldn't care less about any individual team in the NBA or NHL.

It's Chance Ruffin, and he's a fairly solid reliever.

The Giants thought Brian Wilson needed Tommy John Surgery earlier today. Turns out it's just elbow inflammation. I would've had to been put on suicide watch.

The two starters in the Twins/Tigers game tonight have a combined K/9 of 7.43. There may be some runs in this game.

He got raped in his final start against the Tigers last year, and was pretty lousy in his only start this year. So......

I did forget about the Pavano against the Tigers factor. He either has it or he doesn't most nights so it's basically a crapshoot.
