Alfonso Soriano is just feasting in the AL. He had 51 RBIs in 93 games with the Cubs; he's now up to 26 RBIs in his now 19th game with the yankees. The 2 teams are basically even offensively, so it's not like he's getting more opportunities.

Justin Upton walk-off HR!

Braves are just dominating the Nats this year. 6th straight win, 11-3 overall (interestingly, it's all streaks... Braves won first 5, Nats next 3, Braves last 6).

I'm losing hope. Angels losing to the last place Astros. Hard to be optimistic when you're 15.5 games out of the division and 15 in the wild card.

Cliff Lee who?

The Giants/Marlins score from last night was quite unexpecting. Who would of expected an offensive outburst like that in Miami with those two teams?

Miguel Tejada suspended 105 games for testing positive for an amphetamine (Adderall). Why 105?

Quote:

Because Tejada had previously tested positive under the league’s amphetamine policy, he was subject to a 25-game ban for a second positive, which was found in a test this season. A third positive, in close proximity to the second, called for an additional 80-game suspension, totaling a concurrent 105.

Also...

Quote:

It will be the third-longest non-lifetime suspension ever levied by MLB, behind the Alex Rodriguez’s pending 211-game ban and Steve Howe’s 119-day sanction in 1992.

Unless they can keep it up for another 60 games or so, they might want to go on like a 8-14 stretch soon....

I'm not saying they will, but a 84% win percentage isn't realistic over 100+ games.... So would you rather stumble in late August/early September and level out or struggle in early October?

Not negative, just realistic.

Seriously, record means nothing, Its all about getting hot at the right time, which is what I can say about our titles last few years

Of course it counts to get hot in October. Im just enjoying our little run for now a little considering our horrid start.

That's my point. It's extremely difficult to be hot for 2 months (especially this hot). It's unheard of to make it 4.5 months.

Hi-Def Steve · 08-17-2013, 08:50 PM

So we should lose on purpose right now, then get hot again next month?

I never said they should TRY to lose. I would just want them to have a bit of a cold streak sooner than later.
