Although, Strickland might be even more psycho!! Roids!!


Thing about Strickland is he throws real hard, but has hardly any movement on his fastball. Those boys in the show can hit hard, but not hard with good movement.

When they hit Strickland, it goes a long way. He'll never be more than an average set-up man.

Did anyone see the Astro-Twins game today in Minnesota?

The Astros were down 8-2 going into the 8th inning and they won the game 16-8. They scored 11 in the 8th and 3 in the ninth inning.


It's official. I missed the selfie deadline so I'm Maser's sock puppet because rene and the Polish half of the fubar twins have decided that I am.

Oh, that was a good one!

Harper sure knows how to win friends! He's a talent, but his hog dog attitude especially when he first came up has made him a marked man.

I recall 2013 he was hog dogging vs the Braves and Julio sent him a message



He's an awesome talent but sometimes is determined to make life difficult for himself.

Well, the Dodgers aren't doing too bad. That is one heck of a very good bull pen.And, for now, they're in first!
Time will tell, of course.

Now if he would just spend less time worrying about his hair on the field!!

BTW sure fun to watch Span play again. He's very much missed in DC. One of the really great guys playing the game.



Wish he'd stop worrying about his hair, period. smile

Making it hard to maintain his man card.

Not so sure about his decision to get married. Lotta grifters out there. grin

I'd still take him on our team, though..

Mariners any good?

I watch a few games a year at the ball park. And by watch, I mean drink beer, socialize, and eat, while a pack of third world children earn millions playing catch on a field in front of me.

Braves were fun when I was a kid in the early 90's. What ever happened to John Rocker?

I don't keep up with Baseball these days until the play offs start but the oldies country western radio station I listen to carries the Mariners games so I do know that the Mariners suck hard this year.
Fortunately.....I could care less about anything that comes out of WA.

Well.....cept for the Mooner......

No doubt. Assuming you don't have 10% of his arrogance, which is a good thing.

He changed his name to Strickland.

I knew when that guy was in Az he was going to be something special. He is a no nonsense "here's my best hit it if you can" pitcher. One of my favorites in the game today.
