MLB News & Notes (other than Cubs or Sox)

Is it racist for me to flashback to scenes from Breaking Bad ever time I see Yadier Molina and his styling neck tattoo?

[VanSlawAndCottoCheese]

No. Is it homophobic for me to flashback to scenes from Queer as Folk every time I see the rest of the Cardinals? Even if I totally support their right to marry one another? Probably.

I was just thinking that Peavy was due for an injury....

‏@670TheScore Jake Peavy will miss his start tonight with back spasms. Hector Santiago will start: http://cbsloc.al/11FlpgT #WhiteSox

I'm still a bit shocked that they locked him up long-term after his history.

I'm still a bit shocked that they locked him up long-term after his history.

It's because he has TWTW.

I would like to be able to be 10% as bad at my job as Angel Hernandez is at his without any repercussions.

Sigh..really?  Still?

And I've seen them win 2 world series titles...

Seriously, isn't he too old for the Alpha Betas?

And they don't even have the lowest attendance in baseball.

There isn't a single thing that Swish does that is genuine. Once the Indians revert back to their losing ways, his antics will wear thin on everyone just as they always have in every single town he's played.

And that honor goes to the Indians.

 

Guess is that Swish isn't pulling in the crowds that management was expecting when they signed him.   Maybe he can cool it on the OSU BS.

 

Was surprised to see that Indians have the worst attendance in MLB.  They've been competitive, have a solid manager and believe that Reynolds is leading the league in HRs.

The Cubs are averaging 5500 less per home game than last year through the same time frame.  I'm guessing the weather has to do with a portion of that, but that's gotta sting a little.
