Ben Sheets has 11 Ks vs. the Cubs through 6. Clement is on the short end of a 1-0 game so far.

[Mad Dawg]

By the way, here's the crazy Nomar trade rumor of the day:

A writer for the Orlando Sun-Sentinal threw out a possibility. Nomar for Brad Penny and Hee Sop Choi. The only problem? Nomar has to agree to move to 1B. :lol:

Why don't people think anymore?

[Luddy]

Brett Bomko gives up 6 through 1 2/3. -ohbfrank-

[twikoff]

on the bright side.. that might get the rockies to pitch to bonds :lol:

[El Scorcho]

A good theory if he was actually in the lineup today. :lol:

[twikoff]

ha
looks like he picked the wrong game to sit out

We took griffin to see spiderman 2 this afternoon.. so Im just now getting caught up

[Luddy]

Snow hitting third. :hscratch:

[Canadian Bacon]

Cards win again!!!!!!!!!!! :up:

Poor Bonds, what? not enough sleep last night? rotfl
Hey twikoff, go Expos ;)

Hidalgo now has an HR in five straight games. A new Mets record.

Good job, Doggie! :up:

6 HR in the last 5 games

:thumbsup:

3-0 Mets going to the bottom of the 1st

[Mad Dawg]

6-0 Braves in the 1st. Andruw Jones with a 3-run shot.

[Applejack]

Mets game looks like it might be a high scoring one.

3-2 Mets after 1.

Glavine has a propensity for slow starts though

yep, he's just going off. Still don't get why the Astros didn't just keep him and Dotel instead of trading for Beltran for 3+ months

[Mad Dawg]

I still see the benefits of trading him, but at the end of the day, the Astros aren't as good as advertised either way.

Anyway, I love the guy, and I'm glad to see he's making the most out of his Jimy-less change of scenary.

[Applejack]

Glavine is getting shelled.

6-3 Phils in the 2nd inning.

[Mad Dawg]

C.C. Sabathia is getting the Pettitte treatment from Texas. 6-2 Rangers in the 3rd.

Well, theres no witty comeback for that.

Come on, your posts in the thread were clever cover, but we never saw the secret emails you sent with your real suggestions.

[chrisih8u]

Damn, Mad Dawg foiled my plan.

chrisih8u is just another alias I use to pretend that I hate the Yankees. My real screenname is Bust.

[Bushdog]

He does love the Rod ;)

[chrisih8u]

Esteban Yan of the Tigers was ejected in the bottom of the 4th inning by home plate umpire Mark Wegner for throwing at Alex Rodriguez.

[chrisih8u]

What a crappy MLB thread today. :lol:

Yankees get the day off. :thumbsup:

Yeah, but think how far back we were before this streak.

[Deftones]

There goes Gagne's streak! rotfl

Way to go D-backs! :up:

[El Scorcho]

UP YOURS GAGNE

[Luddy]

Sweet! I was hoping the Giants would do it. Does he looked pissed?

[Deftones]

Originally posted by Luddy

Yeah, he was on the mound. The fans just gave him a curtain call. Just goes to show you that despite the inning or circumstances, the Dodger fans heads, aren't in the game.

Hey morons, he just blew a save! :lol:

WOOOOOHOOOOOO! This has been the greatest news all day! :)

[Deftones]

for blowing that save, McKeon should pull his offer to Gagne for the All-Star game.

You know, as sucky as the D-backs season has been, there have been some great individual moments.

1) RJ's perfect game
2) RJ's 4000th K
3) Breaking Gagne's save streak

BTW, the team that Gagne last blew a save to? The D-backs, of course. :)

[wabio]

There's goes LA's season....


















and their attendance numbers as well. :lol:

[Deftones]

On the bright side for Dodgers fans, they can go back to leaving during the 7th inning since Gagne doesn't have that streak anymore. :lol:

[Y2K Falcon]

Didn't the streak end during last year's all-star game? :hscratch: I thought "now it counts". -ohbfrank-

No. The All-Star game is an exhibition.

only regular games count, so no preseason, post season, (wait this is the Dodgers never mind ;)) and the AS game do not count,

[Deftones]

stupid D-backs. They get Gagne to blow a save, and then they lose. Oh well, I guess it is something. :)

[chrisih8u]

:up: to the Diamondbacks.

So if RJ had a perfect game but lost in the 9th, the fans wouldn't cheer for him? :)

Its too bad we're going to lose the 3 million fans we draw every year no matter how much we suck because the streak is over. Such a shame :(

[Mad Dawg]

Great game in San Diego. Clemens went 7 strong, 3 hits, 1 ER, 6 Ks, and 4 BB. But Brian Lawrence has matched him the whole way, so Roger's not in line for the decision.

[Mad Dawg]

By the way, who is LA's closer? That guy sucks.

[Mad Dawg]

And Miceli gives up the go ahead run. -ohbfrank-

[chrisih8u]

It seems like all of Clemens's no decisions have been great games. Has he been "saved" from a loss?

[Mad Dawg]

Originally posted by chrisih8u

There have been one or two 6th or 7th inning rallies to save him, but I don't think he has left the game without the lead and won. I could be wrong on the Colorado game where he was roughed up for the first time.

[chrisih8u]

John Olerud doesnt want to play for the Red Sox or anyone else. :(

Jul. 5 - The Seattle Post-Intellingencer is reporting that Olerud declined to waive his no-trade clause after being approached by the Mariners about a trade. The Red Sox are believed to have interest in Olerud, but were not the team that contacted Seattle GM Bill Bavasi about a possible deal.
"For me to accept, it would have to be a situation where it was good for my family," Olerud told the paper. "If we were going to a place where he could go on the field to shag balls or where he could fly on the plane for road trips, that would be something I would consider."

edit: Hmmm. Now that I read it again, maybe there is still a chance.



And it would be very telling if Nomar switched to 1st for Florida. If he wanted to play 1st base, why not do it in Boston? :confused:

[Mad Dawg]

Update on the earlier Marlins/Nomar rumor. Sporting News Radio says that the Sox and Marlins are talking about a Brad Penny/A. Gonzalez for Nomar/Lowe deal.

I was as pissed as anyone when he sat in NY, but this Nomar stuff is too much. Just try to deal a couple of prospects for a #5 starter and a 1B with fielding abilities and get on with the damn season.

[Canadian Bacon]

time to start an Astros fire manager thread, well hopefuly not :D

That's exactly what I thought. The last thing Nomar will do is play 1B on a regular basis.

[chrisih8u]

Both Boston papers today had columns saying that the Sox should dump Lowe. It was pretty harsh, too. The day before, they were split on wether to keep Nomar.

If McLane gets his head out of his ass long enough to pull the trigger on both Jimy and the hitting coach, I won't have time to start a thread. With the party that I'll throw, everyone in Houston will never again care about winning a World Series.

I know. What do you do about Lowe, other than laugh at him for turning down that nice contract extention before the season? This isn't the time to be trading starters or a former All-Star SS. It's about filling in the holes.

You know...like you and A-Rod do.
