that's a tough one

it does give the player taking them an energy boost. though i imagine they could get that “legally” from 5 hour energy or having a cup of coffee or something like that. it’s a slippery slope…

Some amphetamines should be banned.

You don’t want players shooting meth or popping greenies willy-nilly.

On the other hand, I’ve had a Ritalin prescription for almost 15 years now, and that’s technically an amphetamine too. If that’s what people are getting caught for, that’s a bunch of bullshit.

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

MVP to Kazmir based on the Oakland lineup and long rest for Kaz

BJ’s third homerun in the eighth inning will barely be positive WPA.

Hopefully you will have an opportunity to see what a bad investment Street is.

I hear tell you’re thinking of trading for Jon Rauch of my Nationals. A much better, cheaper option.

have we talked about Street here at all? can't remember...

unless Street’s injured, he’s an excellent pitcher. relative to their potential cost (trade and salary), Rauch might be the better option.

Some crazy guy told me the other day that the best strategy is to hit your best hitter 3rd

I said your stupid. Everyone knows you should hit your most impatient hitter and one that barely gets on base 30% of the time and has little to no power

stealing a quote from the Brewers game chat

"Twins general manager Bill Smith, on Livan Hernandez, who improved to 10-6 with a 5.29 earned-run average with Saturday’s victory over Texas: "I’ll take the (10) wins. Who do you want, a guy who’s 10-15 with a 2.80 ERA or a guy who’s 16-8 with a 7.00 ERA? I’ll take the 16-8."

yep, Friedman’s ok.

This simply cannot be a real quote.

Any GM saying this should be fired instantly.

Okay, fine. If the 7.00 ERA pitcher somehow has better peripherals than the 2.80 ERA pitcher (ridiculously unlikely), then you've got a point.

Somehow I don’t think that’s what Bill Smith was talking about.

This may just be smoke-blowing for the purposes of justifying Liriano remaining in the minors.

Must be an optical illusion.

He’s just walking people, but the ump is forgetting to say “take your base.”

I only wish they would allow them to use aluminum bats for that series.
