Want Brad Lidge instead? You have to wonder if the Pujols homer messed with his head. Gave up another game-tying home run last night.

Steve Somers here and YOU THERE falling asleep in the MRI machine.

I immediately called SportsPhone, and heard the all-too-real news... I know others disagree with me, but I have always harbored more resentment towards Dwight than Darryl. I'm not sure why. Maybe it's due to the fact that Darryl didn't really start screwing up until he was gone, and Dwight started screwing up while he was still with the club... Sportsphone! Remember the days before the internet? Wow! I kinda agree with iubes here. Darryl was dead to me the minute he put on that Dodgers hat; Doc strung us along here.

Edgy DC wrote: The Orioles never should have broken their affiliation with the Red Wings. Nothing good has happened to them since. In fact, the Wings never should have closed Red Wing Stadium/Silver Stadium. It lasted from 1929 to 1996. Wrong and wrong. As a former Rochester resident and Red Wings fan, dumping Baltimore was the best thing that could have happened to them. (Unless you meant that nothing good has happened to Baltimore.) First, none of the big-league players ever rehabbed in Rochester, because AA-Bowie is much closer to Baltimore. Rochester was treated like the red-hatted stepchild. There were WAY more Yankees and Mets fans in Rochester than there were O's fans. As far as Silver Stadium/Frontier Field goes, I was there for the first three seasons of the new park, and as storied as the old place was, it was a hard-core dump at the end. Bad neighborhood, uncomfortable seats... it was nowhere near AAA quality. The new place is great; incredible sightlines, great views of the city, plenty of space, and in the first season (1997), they rode our awesome nightly attendance all the way to the International League championship. After that, things fell apart with Baltimore, but now that Minnesota's in town, there's a much more positive attitude around the team, and you definitely see more Twins hats around town. If you want to get technical, maybe they never should have broken ties with St. Louis. (Although that was waaaay before my time.)

In case it's sold out when you get there, don't forget about

Are you all crazy? We owe the guy thirty million dollars after this year, and anyway, you can't trade a guy in the first year of a multi-year deal or he has the right to become a free agent at the end of the year. Wagner's not going anywhere.

This Geffner jerkhole needs to make up his mind: ="TH-R Columnist Michael P.

Did he get arrested for soliciting Jeter?

Hey, he's already had teeth knocked out. He's practically still a hockey player.

FWIW, DD now also offers travel mugs in limited-edition Mets and Yankees varieties for $3.99 each. I agree on the odd choice of players; nothing against Sid, who's probably one of my Top 5 Mets Ever (at least Top 10), but there are other guys who should be there.

Heeeeeeeeeey Ya... Hey Ya!

Link Bizarre. But I have to at least get the Keith Hernandez one. (Like I need an excuse to visit my local DD.)

How about Smoltz for Wagner, and we have Smoltz close for us? Just kidding.

That's what I get for posting before looking at his frigging stats. Nuts.

Matty's turned it around in '06. Don't know what happened, but he's learned to find the plate, and has been selected to the 2006 All-Star Futures Game in Pittsburgh.

="ScarletKnight41"]I haven't read it yet, but apparently I need to. My friend called me to tell me that her daughter gave her a copy, and she saw a story by me in there.Page 121, your story about Bobby V's. I flipped through it today in the store.

I thought he was 14. Whatever. Who is this Wright kid? He's quite a hitter. They should hold on to him.
