And the bottom feeding Pirates have crossed the dreaded 82 mark insuring a losing season, again. And since there is no hope of post season play, they are now moving established position players to different positions. Their starting shortstop is now an outfielder, and a veteran left fielder is taking defensive reps at first base.
20 year win/ loss percentage record?? .381!!! Man, when this bunch latches on to something they are good at, they go after it with gusto. And they are really good a losing.

Yeah, and they say he'll be able to return to *pitching* again next year, too.
The Mariners salvaged one against the Yankees. The next games are against Houston and Texas. They could sneak in as a wild card or even overtake Houston if they go on a tear. They are killing me! If they hadn't swooned in the second half, they would have been way ahead of Houston and wouldn't even need to think about the wild card race.

Kibble, milkbones, and P Basses. And redheads.
Looks like I will go two consecutive years without attending a Rockies game. Their last three home games are next week and I'm not available.
Could be worse. I could be a White Sox fan. I feel your pain, friends.

Nats optioned CJ Abrams to the minors after he stayed out all night at a casino before a day game at Wrigley. Guessing he was maybe celebrating going 4 for 5 and scoring 2 runs? Yeah, he went 0-3 (with a BB) on Friday but then the whole TEAM only collected 5 hits so go figure.

Sources: Nats demote All-Star after all-nighter
The Nationals have demoted All-Star shortstop CJ Abrams after he stayed out all night at a Chicago-area casino before a day game against the Cubs, sources told ESPN's Jesse Rogers.
In a shocking development the Cubs were eliminated from post-season contention with their loss Saturday to the Nationals.

He stayed out until 8:00am. They made the right move.
First, Bob Nutting pulls off the jerk move of the century, then he sends his GM out there to lie to peoples face about it..

It's too bad there isn't a way to run Nutting out of the game. What a shameful human being.
Then again, if Cherington had any decency, he would have resigned before being forced to dish out that line of bull puckey.

Tellez, 4 PA's shy of $200K bonus, cut by Pirates
Pirates GM Ben Cherington said first baseman Rowdy Tellez's potential bonus had "zero factor" in the decision to cut him before Tuesday's game.

Our favorite team beat the Mets game 1 of critical series. That’s huge.
Hopefully the weather misses.

He also said he didn't think it would have a negative impact on the players in the clubhouse . . . presumably with a straight face. That's such a Richard move and while it probably wouldn't be THE deciding factor for potential FA's they pursue it helps them paint the picture of what kind of organization they'd be signing with.First, Bob Nutting pulls off the jerk move of the century, then he sends his GM out there to lie to peoples face about it..

Next year to win the AL west. Not this year.
Wild card doesn't look good either. The Mariners have to win out now and get lots of help.

Even I, who usually say the term of the contract are what they are, think that was despicable.
