It must be very exciting for Corey Hart to get voted into the All-Star game by the fans. What probably isn't exciting to him is getting a beer bath from his teammates while holding his infant daughter. Hopefully she won't be traumatized from the experience. Although it does seem kind of fun.

Miguel Tejada lied about his age as many players do. They do it so they are seen as phenoms. They play like they are 19, but they say they are 17. They lie to make themselves appear like a great deal. Kind of like using steroids.

Dave Bush desperately needed a good start against the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday night in order to state his case to remain in the rotation once Yovani Gallardo comes off the disabled list this weekend. Bush got his first quality start of the season against the Cards, but it wasn't enough and the Cardinals downed the Brewers, 6-1.

As if the playoffs aren't painful enough to watch for Pirate fans...-Basically everyone on the Rays should have been drafted by us. Jason Bay is tearing it up for the Red Sox. We're always mentioned in the Manny deal when HE tears it up in LA, and something is telling me the Dodgers aren't exactly missing Andy LaRoche. And nobody in Pittsburgh likes to see Philly fans...
