    Whew. At least this team won't have the worst month in MLB history.

    Amazing thing is we only need 9 wins to match the 2003 Tigers. Makes me realize just how terrible that team was.

    MLB should start giving us double runs. Would make our games a lot more exciting.

    How about the opposing team doesn't get to bat until.... say, the 4th or the 5th inning?

    appropriate, since wandy will probably pitch a perfect game against him.

    Maybe we should let the Skeeters play a game?

    So we are just wrtiting off Jed Lowrie now? Even after his slump Jed Lowrie still has the 4th best WAR for a SS in baseball.

    I'll be very surprised if Lowrie is on this team next year at this time.

    Jed Lowrie is one of my 5 bench guys. When you can't stay healthy for even 100 games, you can't be a long-term starter. This is the 4th consecutive year Lowrie has missed a large amount of games do to injury. He hasn't played 90 games since 2008 (though he is likely to do it this season, but good chance he doesn't get to 100).

    We will not be seeing Wandy. Saturday is Erik Bedard and Sunday is James MacDonald.

    Pet peeve of mine is that if a manager is going to yank a pitcher if someone gets on base in the 7th, then he should pinch hit for him in the 6th.

    chris johnson is doing a great job of boosting his trade value before the deadline.
