| Halladay | Lincecum |
| 10-3, 2.85 | 10-2, 2.33 |
Anybody wonder what Tim Lincecum hits, velocity-wise, when asked to pitch for an inning or two? Go team; overflow thread due in an hour.

Fearless prediction...
11-7 AL wins again. NL takes an early lead. Jason Marquis comes in and plays the Atlee Hammaker role. Our hero goes 1-2 with a double. Franklin pitches a scoreless 2/3 of an inning. Molina is 0-1.
yeah, wow
go NL!
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
Could we have an All Star game
Where the pitchers are chosen for being exactly League Average the and score would be in the 20’s for the game. That would be fun. Basically just a game application of the Home Run Derby.

Even more fun!
The NL manager gets to choose the AL pitchers and the AL manager gets to choose the NL pitchers. (Just as far as who’s on the roster, obviously each manager has to actually handle their own pitching staff)

and i don't know if you've seen,
but they also have MiLB games on there. didn’t watch it but saw albuquerque @ memphis on sunday on there

i’ve been following f-r for a long time now, but haven’t ever been able to actually watch any of the farm teams’ games. hopefully i can change that now, yay!

did you catch gossage

Good for him.
The public response to players who use steroids really varies. I mean, Palmeiro, Sosa, Bonds, McGwire, Ramirez, and Rodriguez are all equivalent, right? Sure some have failed and test and others haven’t, but any reasonable person can conclude they’re all guilty.
wat
did they cover up ruth’s number last year?

that and the 'I'
Inexcusable.
However I’m glad to see someone paid some money for an actual staircase off the dangerous trucks. We need to host more of these national events so they can add seatbelts.

you ever notice those parades
The Chevy trucks? Making our high priced players jump out of the flatbed? Didn’t look like they got benches before, either. Some guys almost fell out, getting out.
The aerial shot from today showed big ole metal staircases. With black and yellow ‘caution’ stripes.
"But listen, and understand: more Molinas are out there. They can't be bargained with. They can't be reasoned with. They don't feel pity, or remorse, or fear." - THT
Oh, gotcha
I think the same thing, but I imagine the stairs will be for the old guys.

nope
It was for all trucks.
We did have several near-injuries in previous parades. I guess the Yankees didn’t like that.

Albert Pujols does not have "down" years. He has "~6 WAR" years.
Lincoln respectfully disagrees with you, sir.

... you're aware he's been dead for 140+ years?
I said anytime soon. Ain’t gonna happen. As soon as a president grows facial hair the news cycle will get more ridiculous that we ever thought possible. Remember when Gore grew a goatee?

He’d immediately regret it though. I’d love it if it would happen, it just won’t.

I says he goes Bush I
I’m president and I’m not eating broccoli anymore… I’m president and I’m not shaving anymore.
It just looked like he had a Rasmus stache.
Faint, and pretty bad. But I’m definitely not seeing this in HD.
I think having facial hair hurts your chances of getting elected
something about looking dishonest. It’s sad really, when a good stache can’t get elected into office.
I think that German fellow ruined moustaches for everybody.

I agree.
According to everything I’ve read, THIS was supposed to be MLB’s big recognition of a guy who is widely regarded as one of the best, if most unappreciated (outside of STL), players in MLB history. That was pretty effin’ weak….a little ride from the tunnel on a tiny mobile, hand the ball off, and you’re done?
Remember when the AS game was at Fenway and they brought all the living HOFers out (I think) and all the players had a nice structured opportunity to fawn all over Ted Williams? That’s what I was thinking we had planned for Stan. That was pretty disappointing, IMO.
it feels like a lot of the StL organizers were overruled

He needs to cover
up some ground for the lack of Schuman’s range…
Yadi swings and hits a high fly ball... Endy Chavez goes back, to the track, to the wall... ITS A GUNNER!! Yadi gives St. Louis the lead in the top of the ninth!

The AL just made the first out at third base.
And of course, as I type that they score. Bleeping AL.
Albert Pujols does not have "down" years. He has "~6 WAR" years.
oh lord.
no, albert. no.

I love how it never matters on a trade rumor.
“Let’s go down to Ken Rosenthal and see where _________ might be headed.”
Ken: “Thanks guys. Although most of the rumors have centered around _______, my sources say that the Yankees can’t be ruled out of the hunt.”
Man, that gets annoying.
The "there's no news to report" report
“Since coming to St. Louis, Roy Halladay hasn’t made any decisions about anything. Nor have I heard of any specific scenarios. Back to you guys in the booth.”
Yadi will not have this nonsense
I hope he kicked all their asses.
