Stuff And Junk

It didn't happen at all in 2009.
It didn't happen in 2008 either.
Yet, in 2010 already, it has happened three times.
'It' is a pitcher losing a shutout to a home run with two outs in the ninth inning. It happened yesterday to Jake Westbrook. It had happened previously to Ervin Santana and Ricky Nolasco.
You think the Yankees have a good offense?
There is a team that has not five, not 10, not twenty, nope, they have 50 more extra base hits than the Yankees. More than one a game more than the pinstripers. That team?
The Toronto Blue Jays
Alex Gonzalez, Jose Bautista, and Vernon Wells all already have 10 home runs.
Gavin Floyd has a 1-7 lifetime record against the Kansas City Royals. Signifying, that he is now a bad enough pitcher to be pitching for the Kansas City Royals
Brian Wilson has saved four of Barry Zito's victories.
Jonathon Papelbon has saved four of John Lackey's victories
Leo Nunez has saved four of Nate Robertson's victories.....
Leo and Nate's mom's wanted me to let you know that
You know how announcers like to say, "that trade worked out well for both sides"?
Javier Vazquez and Melky Cabrera just told them to fu** off.
Max Scherzer and Edwin Jackson are telling them to shut up too.
Curtis Granderson and Ian Kennedy are mum.
The Rays got rid of their under-performing sloth, only to sign a semi-sloth in Hank Blalock. Wonderful. I do applaud the Rays for throwing millions to the wind with Burrell's contract. The Indians and Mariners should do the same.
Watching Hafner, Griffey, and Burrell leaves me yearning to see a Mike Hampton or Micah Owings at bat.
Three 2b eligible players are closely grouped together in the A.L. categories of hits and total bases. Robinson Cano, Dustin Pedroia....and Alberto Callaspo. Callaspo has more rbi than both Cano and Pedroia.
The A.L. maybe trying to change their image. They have eight players with double digit stolen bases.
The N.L. has two.
Andre Ethier. His name is Andre Ethier.
His last name has become the most misspelled in baseball.
The name is Ethier.
