Damn Yankees ended Santana's no-hit bid early...........

We are getting a lot of emails and questions today about a certain minor-leaguer who was called up on Friday and still isn't part of NFBC leagues' free agent pool. Remember, a player gets added to the FAAB pool once he's played one game in the majors. We made this change prior to the 2012 season so...

With all the injuries in MLB this season, you have to give it to any owner who has been able to keep his teams afloat this year. Chad Schroeder not only has done that through 8 weeks of the NFBC season he's done it with almost all of his teams. I know there's a lot of season left, but give it up to...

Come on Glenn. Chad's whole "aw schucks, I don't even know what i'm doing in baseball" has been exposed as complete BS. He's an assassin. Based on his success you would think that's true, but that's really who he is not a front. I was able to experience that in Football last year. He is the type of...

back in the day, stuff like this would piss me off to no end. the past couple years, it doesn't even phase me. shit happens and u move on. 8-) on another note, i'm surprised by all of the posts this year about injuries being soooo bad. who gives a shit, seriously. it's part of the game. man up and ...

I will even go a step further and say that it will be between the Yankees and Red Sox. Dice-K will be off the books after this year and they will buyout Yuk at 1mil so plenty of money available. It's also become obvious that Lester and Beckett are good pitchers but can't be counted on as the staff a...

While "Curtain must come up, strikes out too much" rookie Will Middlebrooks is playing 3B. Hmmmmm, I guess your right Mark. The kid does not belong why else would you move all those guys around to accommodate him? obviously he's hit some hr and has been a solid run producer to date. they need guys ...

Tonight's lineup: 1. Mike Aviles (R) SS 2. Dustin Pedroia (R) 2B 3. David Ortiz (L) DH 4. Adrian Gonzalez (L) RF 5. Kevin Youkilis (R) 1B 6. Will Middlebrooks (R) 3B 7. Jarrod Saltalamacchia (S) C 8. Daniel Nava (S) LF 9. Marlon Byrd (R) CF All star 1B A-Gone in RF and Kevin "P***y" Youkilis (At lea...

The Franchise wrote: I'll take that bet on Middlebrooks

15 of middlebrook's last 31 at bats (48%) have ended with a strikeout. curtain comes up

So what are we betting? Kid has always struck out in the minors, but he can still rake, run a little and play solid defense.

PS - with youk coming off DL on tuesday, middlebrooks turns into lottery ticket pumpkin again. also, rumors are starting to creep in that Tex has Valley Fever (Mark Teixeira has been battling the issue all season, and the team is unsure how to treat it and doesn't know when he'll be 100 percent aga...

The guy is just a machine right now


But.............................As soon as he signs his shiny new long term contract he will get hurt.

One down, well almost and one more to go.............. Can we make bets on who gets injured next? This might be more fun than the actual Baseball season

People were talking about him pulling a Wally Pip and instead he just Yuuked himself

Ahh good times

This is an interesting stat from Buster Olney: "Luke Hochevar is on the wrong side of history, after his most recent loss. From ESPN Stats & Information: After allowing seven earned runs in 2 1/3 innings Sunday against the Yankees, Hochevar is now an owner of a 5.46 career ERA. Since 1901, only fiv...

I hate it when this happens!

Philip meet Luke. You two should get along

What will they do with Youk?

Start a "walking program" for him.

Youkilis is garbage. They will find playing time for Middlebrooks. He is ready for the big show and Yuk can barely walk down the dugout steps without getting hurt. Plus I heard he is a total jackass...

I almost sat Reynolds for Pujols...lol Also looks like BoSox Cook is cooked... Let me get this straight. You "ALMOST SAT" Reynolds (Mark Reynolds 3B for the Baltimore Orioles) for Pujols (Albert Pujols 1B for the LA Angels)??? The 2 posts above are related in terms of bad luck in going with the wro...

May 15th at the latest. Olivo is 2 for 16 and they wont stick with that type of production long, Carp coming back and them wanting them Figgins in the lineup means they need Montero catching sooner rather than later. 1 more game needed. Figgins though banished to teh bench. I wonder how long before...

Sounds like a hamate bone. Had the same injury on the other hand last year. Missed 6 weeks. Good times. At least no on else in your league will be looking for a 3B this week. Ahhhhhhhh. Yup, I'm ready for Football! The only 2 players doing anything on my teams (C.Young and Panda) now on the DL toge...
