    From the "not a good idea department:" http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york/mets/post/_/id/79418/mets-unveil-camouflage-jerseys "Military Mondays" with free tickets to servicemen and women? Great. This jersey? Horrible. I'd gladly donate to a military-related charity if they just didn't wear it.

    A few words from McCann to Fernandez and that would've been fine; they'll have plenty of chances to plunk him next season of course. The correct answer is Johnson for the douchebag prize.

    2017 opening date means that baseball will have gone 5 full years between opening new parks. Last time that happened was 1982 (Metrodome) to 1989 (SkyDome).

    I don't actually know if you have to qualify for the batting title to be eligible for a silver slugger. As noted, Wright should win for third base regardless.
  5. Gwreck
    Nope. Matt Carpenter of the Cardinals (55 Doubles, .873 OPS, 6.6 WAR) will win for second base.

    A quick aside, I thought it telling that the first thing Jimmy Rollins thinks of re: Phillies fans was vandalism and violence.
  7. Gwreck
    You tell me. Did I forget something? I hope it's understood that this is more of a "that's interesting" observation and not a "this is a well-founded statistical argument" observation.
  8. Gwreck
    I'll guess Matt Carpenter.

    History tells us that it is unlikely that the Cardinals will win. One league has not won four consecutive World Series since 1979-1982 (NL); before that 1947-1953 (AL).

    Red Sox in 5

    I believe my dislike for Victorino came from the days when the Phillies were acting as the fun police and calling out Jose Reyes for being too celebratory. Just like the 2013 Cardinals, it was a total hypocritical double standard bullshit pot-calling-kettle-black situation, with Victorino as happy to showboat as anyone. Is Victorino still a tool? Hard to say. --- I guess I would root for Boston over the Cardinals but this is clearly the worst World Series matchup since Satan's Series.

    Jose Reyes. I will admit, I laughed pretty hard at the thread title.

    They said the Tigers have no lefty starters. In the bullpen, the Tigers have Smyly (pitched earlier that inning), Alvarez and Coke, all lefties.
  16. Gwreck
    Huge error by Leyland. The Tigers carry three lefty relievers. Ortiz has a 360 point difference in his OPS when facing a lefty pitcher.
  17. Gwreck
    Ballgame.
  18. Gwreck
    4 outs to go as the Tigers go to pitcher #4
  19. Gwreck
    Anibal Sanchez walks the bases loaded in the 6th. 11 Ks and 0 hits so far.

    2 on, 1 out, bottom of the 13th. Beltran up. This should be where it ends...

    Dodgers in 5 Tigers in 7
