    yep, can't believe Miggy Tejada and Wigginton

    Miggy had the bases loaded 2 out and he swung at a 2-0 pitch and flied out.

    Wiggy had 1st and 2nd no out in the 9th and swung at a 2-0 pitch to pop out.

    I really hope it's not a broken finger. Lee has made things a lot more interesting recently when watching this non-contending team. Probably the NL MVP if the season ended today.

    I hear there was some blood so maybe his finger just got pinched a little.

    Funny. What does suck is that Lee was having a career year and was in the hunt for NL MVP.

    no way he was going to win mvp. if he was really even "in the hunt" then ryan braun is way ahead of him.


    btw. **** you and your mullet bronson arroyo.

    Care to explain how Braun is "way ahead" of Carlos?

    I assume you mean since the Brewers are in the playoff hunt. Other than that, there is no real statistical support for that statement.

    Futhermore, Braun went down today too with lower back stiffness. I believe he's had issues with this in the past.

    That's a bummer. Lee was having a great year.

    No way, dude. I will vehemently argue that it went from 0.01% to no chance.

    I don't understand why the brought back Reggie Abercrombie. He has been terrible in Round Rock since being sent down. Nick Gorneault and Ray Sadler have been very solid since July. They deserve it more than Abercrombie.

    don't get it, it's just a pinky right? Kobe played with a broken pinky for most of the year and the Playoffs before getting surgery, and he had to shoot and dribble the basketball, he was still a great player.

    All Lee has to do is hold the bat, then make catches with a glove.

    ha, try gripping a bat with the strength required to hit with power, without the use of your little finger

    was it his right or left pinky? if it was his left i dont think it would matter much cuz he hangs that one off the bat.
