I know I shouldn't scoreboard watch at this early juncture - it'll drive me crazy and drunk and destroy all my relationships...but yay Pissburgh!  Luis Rivas - I love you, I want to have your lovechild!

I'm worried about these Cardinals, they just refuse to lose. This won't end well. Comments?

It won't matter what they do if the Cubs keep winning.





Remember, you get what you pay for here at Desipio!

And today the Cardinals lose, I think I see what you did here PPE, and I like it.

OK then......that Jimmie Edmonds, I don't think a freight train could hurt him if he laid down on the tracks and tried to let it run him over.

Jay Bruce just hit another homer. Fuck.

Well, it's officially official.

I hate that guy.

Bruce completed his amazing debut week with a solo homer and a run-scoring single. He went 13-for-22 with six walks, two homers, two steals and six RBIs in his first six games, the last three of them against Atlanta.

PHILADELPHIA (TICKER) —On a roll with their young players right now, the Cincinnati Reds will turn to one of their biggest.

Homer Bailey, the franchise's top pitching prospect, is expected to be called up to start in the finale of a four-game series with the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday.

What are they doing to Dusty's team? I'm beginning to worry that the Reds won't sign Neifi and/or Jose Macias.

Don't know where else to put this: but Orel Hershiser is a special, high quality, top shelf shovelhead. He's got to be the dumbest motherfucking announcer not named Morgan.

There are so many gems to choose from including him analyzing whether Jeter beat Cuddyer to the bag on a play where Jeter never caught the fucking ball...but I'll start with him saying the Twins have a low on base percentage, but when they set the table they seem to get production.

Yes Orel. When a team gets runners on base, they tend to score more often.

Don't worry. The league's going to catch up to him eventually and he'll start to struggle. That's when Dusty will start working with him on his swing.

You can teach hitting, dude.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry, but I actually own a copy of that book.  It was given to me when I was a little leaguer.  I guess that could explain why I never really made it to the show.

I guess that could explain why I never really made it to the show.

Did you kind of make it though?  That's something to be proud of.

Did anybody catch the veiled shot Brenly took at Dusty last night?

Right after they scored their last run he said something about how nice it was to see the Cubs take advantage of a pitcher they were seeing the first time because that was something they hadn't really done in several years.

Was it a shot at Dusty or a shot at the Cubs' players, coaches, managers, GMs etc? Because Lou was the manager last year and that would qualify as one of the last "several years."

Actually, I'm pretty sure he was talking about Jim Riggleman.

I heard that but didn't see it as a shot at Dusty.

I just saw it as mostly true.
