Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; but if a thing is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.
Longo 2nd half AL MVP?
Ken Rosenthol thinks so…
I’ll take Crawford for MVP tonight… He’s well overdue.
Free in High Res too. I was watching both Mets/Reds and Tigers/Orioles in HD
And in many cases this year they have BOTH feeds.

Next year get it from the start
I think it’s crap that it’s $50 extra for the full year, and they don’t offer a half-year discount at the break.

maybe you can't get the free one if you already have an account
because I can’t even seem to find out how to get the video without putting my password in.
Well, that sucks
Do you have other HD channels?

He'd be the hittiest RF in the history of MLB.

On the upside, we're building up a damn high pitch count on AJ
46 through 2

On the downside it almost doesn't matter who pitches for them
That defense doesn’t disappear.
by R.J. Anderson on Jul 18, 2008 7:54 PM EDT up reply actions
And they're getting runners on
It’s encouraging that people are getting on base. The madness has to end eventually.
Nice one-pitch out to bounce back

Speaking of him
A Pirates scout was present when Rays Class AA left-hander David Price made his most recent start, but most likely he was looking at other players. The Rays aren’t trading Price, who was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2007 draft, and they won’t bite on outfielder Xavier Nady unless the Pirates lower their sights.
- Rosenthal.

Any speculation on which other players at Montgomery he would theoretically check out? Morlan? Nowak? Hughes? Hall?
Longlorious.
Free Kila Kaaihue!
They apparently want pitchers.
But I’m interested to see if they return tonight for Hellickson.

ROCCO BEARD BLAST: AA EDITION
- Rocco Baldelli homers (1) on a fly ball to left field.

Soooo
Who are these Jason and Xavier people we want, again?
TAMPA BAY RAYS: 2008 CITRUS SERIES CHAMPIONS
seriously though Bartlett really didn't mean this much to our offense did he??
maybe I underestimated his meaning to the offense.
I was just trying to figure out
Barty’s uses in the offense.
TAMPA BAY RAYS: 2008 CITRUS SERIES CHAMPIONS
.323 since May 1st
Which is better than CC and Aybar
Sill be good for another, right?

I root for the two worst teams in baseball, non-ironically.

Problem with Floyd DH
Is that Gross then has to replace Hinske when coming in. That doesn’t help matters.
Zobrist has an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other.
Right there, Satan won.

Oh my goodness Zobrist. Howell, be a hero

Rios should've walked three times over there.

By throwing strikes...
He gets a lot of chasing, especially on high fastballs. Proving he can throw strikes goes a long way.
Upton looking really bad...
I don’t know if he’s guessing up there or not.
We can worry about him later
Lets get these last 3 outs and forget this streak ever happened. Just sucks we gotta face the Doc tomorrow.
KK!!

Whats nice about people showing up to the game now is that now when people boo
it doesn’t sound like 2 people are the only ones booing….
What the hell is that Konami one about?
That’s some weird shit right there.

FINALLY
oh it feels so good. Balfour is so awesome. Shields is so awesome. Howell is so awesome. Zobrist….he had a very timely hit!
Congrats on getting off the schneid, you guys.
And now…it’s Felix Day!! WOOO!!

23,700 in attendance and making noise.
Shields, the Vulture and Captain KKKKangaroo pitched great.

A very much needed win
Not only did we look terrible for 7 straight but we face Halladay tomorrow. Bringing the magic back for a W is suchhhhhh a good sign.
not to be a pessimist
buts its not like we looked good at the plate tonight. Hopefully this win will be the propelant
And we take first again.
