did Greg Smith own us earlier this season?
Or am I thinking of someone else? Let’s just take this game and another series.

Huston Street on the Trop...
“I never thought it was bad before, but I’d still like to get a pad on the bench down in the bullpen,” Street said. “We look across the field and see their bullpen; they’ve got a nice pad. So I’m still campaigning for that. But I guess that’s part of their home-field advantage.”

Eh?
Cleveland had to run off 7 of 8 to get to one game behind Kansas City. I understand they weren’t supposed to be bad, but they were very much so.

KC ranks last by quite a bit when you add their GPA and DER.

Alright: Perhaps I should have taken the time to more adequately express my inquiry, but what I was really asking was the source of your glib comment. If you were merely making some lewd humorous remark that I simply didn’t understand, then I could care less. Of course, if you were indeed complaining about the size of the posted photo, then the statement would carry implications towards my own penchant of posting photos of Lolcats and FAIL boats; therefore I thought it prudent to investigate the impetus of your “SMALLER” statement.

Miller is just horrid right now. He can’t throw strikes. He can’t get lefties out. What exactly is he good for? Maybe just those “teach you how to throw a pitch” spots on the jumbotron.
