MLB News & Notes (other than Cubs or Sox)

New material? I'm going to make sure I'm in a location without electricity when this airs.

Seems like Hawk's frame of reference for whether pitchers can be thrown out for throwing at a batter without a warning depends on who the pitcher plays for.

I was watching that live today. What a kook. It's bullshit that Jim Leyland got ejected too.

How can the the league let Harrelson even get away with something like that first clip? That should warrant a suspension.

He was reprimanded for it.

I'm imagining Hawk's face flecked with Selig's angry spittle.

 

I like it.

Hawk Harrelson has no business in a booth.  He should take his happy ass to the bleachers and to his knees in the locker room where his old hillbilly ass belongs.  He makes me sick.

So, not really MLB news or notes but I guess I'm going to have the privilege of seeing Manny Ramirez play minor league ball in Omaha tomorrow night.

That Deadspin headline never cease to crack me up.

thanks for this, by the way. I was certain he was a flaming hypocrite when I heard him yesterday, but too lazy to do the research.

<p class="">Tim McCarver was on the Dan Patrick show, and he said that the MLB does not allow us to show footage of Pete Rose on the air.

<p class=""> 

<p class="">I guess all is not forgiven.

[jstraw]

I was in a restaurant yesterday and on ESPN, Pete Rose wrecking Ray Fosse was shown as one of the "top 10 ASG moments," so maybe Tim McCarver is just full of shit.

[chshdsck]

maybe he means during broadcasts...i don't know.

[jstraw]

I'm going with "Tim McCarver is full of shit."

Check out the elephants going at it in the background during the HR derby.
