Okay, I can't sleep, so that means one thing: photo post!
Despite the fact that Atlanta Braves were in town this weekend, I just didn't feel like going to any of the games versus the Marlins. Maybe it's a superstitious fear that going to any of the games would...

Every now and then, I think back on a trade the Astros made in the past few years and it either makes me angry, sad or depressed. To torture myself more, sometimes I comb through the archives to come up with an analysis on exactly how badly a particular trade hurt. This is the...
First place D-Backs welcome Marlins to Chase
After taking two trips to South Florida to play the Marlins already this season, the Arizona Diamondbacks get to play host to the Fish this weekend. Florida was not a very accomodating host to the Diamondbacks, sweeping a 3-game set in May, and taking two out of three in June. Now, the new [...]

Bottom 9th: Going into the ninth, the Pads were back 6-1, but the Pads got Adrian Gonzalez home on a Chase Headley single, and then Nick Hundley drove in his same-named consort from third on another RBI single. Chris Burke bounced into a fielder's choice that left runners at the...

Well, that was disappointing.
In a game in which the Dbacks put on full display to the Valley of exactly their season woe's, the Dbacks lose a heart breaker and series-clinching game to their number 1 current rival, the LA Dodgers.

Season Wrap Up
After a red hot start to the 2008 season, the team in the desert cooled off come June and never really struck fear into anyone in the NL West from that point forward, but theacquisition of LF Adam Dunn must have turned a few heads though. April did show a look into...

The Mets have more free agents to look at today as many players were non-tendered. The surprising ones are Ty Wigginton and Willy Taveras. I hope the Mets bring back Wiggy for utility. This is a type of guy we need on the Mets, he is gritty and a hard nosed player! Here are rest of...

Disappointing.
That's how I would describe last night's game.
Disappointing that Adrian Gonzalez was sick with the flu.
Disappointing that Kevin Correia gave up six runs in 5.2 innings.
Disappointing that we left the tying and winning runs on base in the last two innings...

On the other side, Dan Haren was doing a great job as well. He went six innings, giving up eight hits and three...

According to Peter Abraham, the Yankees non-tendered Justin Christian and Chris Britton. This makes them both free agents. THOUGHTS FROM A DIE HARD YANKEES FAN: Britton didn't really get a chance to show what he had to offer. Hopefully the next team that signs him, gives him a...

Attention, Astros fans. As you may have noticed last week, the Astros now have a new manager. Oh, and GM too. Drayton McLane decided that the club needed new "direction" and "enthusiasm." Or something. So, Purpura and Garner are out. I was glad to see Purpura go...

When the Astros went to the World Series in 2005, the future looked great. Chris Burke, Morgan Ensberg and Jason Lane were three young players who looked like they were ready to live up to their prospective hype (Ensberg already had an MVP-type season).Read the full article on Bleacher Report...
