Motown Tigers

Motown Tigers

They are playing some great ball behind the bats of Cabrera and Fielder lately. Hell, even Dirks has been coming through in the clutch. Verlander has been great, as usual. The rest of the rotation needs to step it up (outside of Fister).

And another one bites the dust:

RHP Bartolo Colon of Oakland Athletics suspended 50 games for violating MLB's drug policy - ESPN

Hoping my Reds finally are getting that phillies monkey off their back

What is this behemoth trade!?

Adrian Gonzalez, Carl Crawford, Josh Beckett nearing Boston Red Sox exit, sources say - ESPN Boston

I can understand the fire sale, but good grief the Dodgers are putting all stacks on deck for some playoffs lovin.

That is a coup if Boston can close the deal with the suckers Dodgers. Three of our four roster wrecking contracts, though Gonzalez at least produced. The team can then at least live with one (potentially) bad contract in Lackey.

^as to the above... I though Beckett was a dominant ace... what happened to him?

He got fat and whiney.

^lol

That bad huh?

Remember when I posted in here that the team wasn't likeable, well...

Actually I think this will be a win win for the Dodgers and the Red Sox as Boston gets some major roster flexibility and Agon will be great anywhere, Beckett will go from one of the best hitting divisions to the worst, and unlike Fenway, Chavez Revine will play to Crawford's strengths.

Don't forget about the drinking beer and eating fried chicken in the clubhouse before/after games lol.

Unfortunately for the Dodgers and Crawford, they won't be seeing him until this time next season.

Either way, that lineup is STACKED.

Victorino, Punto, Kemp, A Gonz, HanRam, Ethier, Cruz, Treanor, then P. That's beast.

I'm still kind of speechless it happened. As a baseball (not Red Sox) fan trades like this are unfathomable, let alone gong through the waiver process. This has to be one of the most significant in season alterations to two teams directions in the history of baseball.

I think this is THE most significant, honestly.

 

[RazorSharp]

It definitely is. It's the largest salary dump in the history of professional sports, and the only time in history a trade has been completed involving two players with $100MM+ left on their contracts.

Won't do you much good for a first round exit

Sorry Hitman, but Orioles won tonight. Sox win tonight (currently 2-1 sox) and it make for a great day of baseball for tomorrow.

Bah bah bah! Damned Orioles. They need to lay down and die like they have for the past 15+ years.

 

[RazorSharp]

Except the Sox didn't win. All that stands between the Yankees and the AL East crown is Daisuke Matsuzaka and his extremely intimidating 7.68 ERA.

Good thing we've never had an issue pummeling him in the past.

Congrats to the Yankees, AL East champions!
