MLB News & Notes (other than Cubs or Sox)

[Tailgater]

Very sad news.

[Fella]

Wow.... that is horrible

I was watching him pitch last night and was impressed. That's a huge blow to the Angels in several different ways. He was their #1 prospect and expected to be a big part of the rotation. Obviously worst of all the entire team has to deal with that tragedy now.

[Coldneck]

Oh shit. I was just thinking about picking him up in my fantsy league. Awful news.

I took him with my last pick in a keeper league. Oops. That's terrible news.

[Clapp]

Awful. My friend was good friends with Nick and always talked about how Nick was the nicest guy. He was so nervous before his big league debut last year and then got knocked around, sent back to AAA after after a few starts. It really hurt Nick and he didn't know if he could pitch in the bigs, as he'd been dominating his whole life, then these guys are knocking him around. Now he comes back and absolutely dominates, surely goes out to celebrate the win, and this happens. So freaking sad.

Looks like Carp is having a nice first game back. This isn't good news.

You lose 97 cool points for calling him "Carp".

[Clapp]

Alright, now I'm starting to get really worried. A couple people are posting on my friend's facebook to please call them back and let them know he's okay. He goes out to drink with the guys after the game a lot and I know he was closest to Nick. He's not answering my calls. Been my best friend since we were 4 years old. Ugh.

Hopefully he is just keeping to himself right now. Didn't they reports already confirm everyone who was with him that was injured/killed?

It's done tongue-in-cheek, Jody. Get with the program.

Yeah. I'm not sure I'd be answering phone calls/emails at this point either...

Hopefully it's nothing.

Then I'm sorry, but I'm going to need to see some {tongue in cheek} brackets. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

No, the one that I saw didn't identify the 3rd passenger in Adenhart's car, it just said a 27 year-old man.

[Butcher]

The Motte experiment may be over in St. Louis. Dennys Reyes is in to close out the game.

[Butcher]

Cardinals win.

Carp's final line:
7IP 1H 0ER 2BB 7K

Not good.
