anudder reason to hate Fox
One of today's pre-game "analysts": Mark Grace. Maybe i've missed him before, but this is the first time i've seen him waxing moronic.
be afraid, be very afraid...
Rich Harden (shoulder) was a little sore after playing catch on Thursday.
Harden rested his arm and shoulder on Friday due to the soreness. He could throw again prior to Saturday's game.

The Awful Adam Eaton
Goes up against Dontrelle Willis tonight...kind of an interesting game because both teams find themselves having the same record as each other and while not much was expected of the Marlins, they have a lot of fun players to watch: Willis, Cabrera, Uggla and Hanley for starters. Meanwhile, the Phils were a lot of people's choices to win the East and they have looked...nebulous.
And while besides Dusty Baker, I don't believe too much about managers ruining things, Charlie Manuel looks like an idiot.
Would it be too much for them to go out and trade for a Jose Capellan or a Michael Wuertz? (Though the Cubs finally do seem to be figuring out that Michael Wuertz actually has some skills...)
Then they wouldn't be in this situation tonight, where Adam Eaton, in all liklihood, will give up a couple homeruns and put them in a position where they need to score seven or eight runs to beat Dontrelle and the Marlins.
Because I think by this point, if they had just left Myers alone, he'd be giving them more good starts by this point, then bad ones. Bad managers never seem to have this idea of "revert to the mean"....

Fants strike gold again!
James Shields struck out nine Athletics and surrendered just one run in eight innings of work on Friday to pick up the win in a 4-1 Devil Rays' victory.
Shields walked just one and gave up four hits, with the lone run coming on a homer by Bobby Crosby. That James has given up seven homers in five starts is very discouraging, but his 37/7 K/BB ratio is a big plus and he has a fine 3.75 ERA despite all of the homers. He's fine to use against the Twins next time out.

Shnell, baby!
Ian Snell shut out the Reds for seven innings tonight to pick up his second win of the season.
He walked two and scattered six hits while striking out four. Snell has yet to give up more than two runs in a start, and he's gone exactly seven innings in each of his last four appearances. He's always been capable of big things, so the hot start shouldn't be that much of a surprise. Still, Snell is likely to fall victim to inconsistency at some point. (My Phokking @SS he will, and PRINT IT!)

Crab Queen dissed
Adam Dunn, who was held out of the lineup Thursday for the first time this season, is batting sixth Friday against right-hander Ian Snell.
Dunn is one of three major leaguers to hit 40 homers each of the last three years, he's the only player in Cincinnati's lineup tonight with even one 25-homer campaign to his credit and he's batting .283/.400/.565 against right-handers this season. Still -- and it's definitely time for everyone to face it -- he is no Alex Gonzalez.

MLB Credits Hank Aaron With 50 Lost Home Runs
"The number 805 will go down as the most prestigious number in sports," said Selig, adding that there is a strong possibility still more of Aaron's home runs could come to the surface during this season, and maybe even the next several seasons to come. "It's not out of the question that Hank could have, say, 900 home runs by the time our investigation is all said and done."

Sorry elviselvisberg and Curt, but anyone with half a brain should have been able to figure out that a pathological war criminal like Dick Cheney (and his neo-con cronies) was selling you a bill of goods on Iraq without relying on the media (and as the Moyers docu shows, it ain’t liberal). Has Curt ever admitted to how wrong he was in supporting the war or publicly campaigning for the RezziDUNCE-in-Chief G. Dumbya? Yes, Gary Thorne was wrong and might be a complete idiot, and you can include the heads on Around the Horn which Curt ripped, but nothing they say or do is dangerous, and no one is getting killed because of it.

Hendry got one right
Juan Pierre had a nine-game hitting streak snapped when he went 0-for-5 in Thursday's loss.
Just a brutal game for Pierre. In the second, he couldn't make contact on a suicide squeeze attempt, hanging Andre Ethier out to dry. In the eighth, he had Ray Durham's double go off his glove as he attempted to make a running catch, giving the Giants the go-ahead run. Pierre is batting .263/.283/.305, so he hasn't been nearly worth the money so far.

Hong-Chih Kuo (shoulder) will pitch one or two innings for Triple-A Las Vegas on Sunday.
"I didn't throw my two-seamer because of the blisters, but I threw everything else," Kuo said. "I felt good, and I'll go to Las Vegas." Kuo will pitch a few weeks for Las Vegas before he factors into the Dodgers' plans. Sweeping up the clubhouse?

You think the Padres are good now...
Shawn Estes (Tommy John surgery, sucking big-time) has been throwing 40-pitch bullpen sessions as he works to build up arm strength.
"I expected the worst the second time I threw, and it was the best I've felt," Estes said. "I don't want to fight the clock. If I have to go under the knife again, and miss another year, I'm 36 before I get back on the mound again." Estes doesn't project to be an option for the Padres until late June or early July at the earliest.

da Philliezzz iz phokked...
Alfonseca one of few bright spots in PHI bullpen...The Phillies have recently turned around their slow start by winning 7 of their last 8 games. And while some of their earlier issues were with the performance of their bullpen, one of the players they have not had issues with has been Antonio Alfonseca. Alfonseca, 35, is tied for the most appearances by any Philly pitcher and is sporting a sub 1.00 ERA over those appearances. Unfortunately for him and anyone who has him on their fantasy team, his recent history does not support continued success at this level.
Year IP ERA Ctl Dom Cmd hr/9 H% S% xERA
==== == ==== === === === ==== == == ====
2003 66 5.85 3.7 6.9 1.9 1.0 34 63 3.64
2004 74 2.58 3.4 5.5 1.6 0.6 29 83 3.69
2005 27 4.98 4.6 5.3 1.1 0.7 31 68 4.24
2006 16 5.62 3.9 2.8 0.7 1.7 33 74 4.77
2007 12 0.77 3.1 2.3 0.8 0.0 19 91 3.76
Rarely is there such (shocking!) success based on such pure luck. So far this season just about everything has gone right for Alfonseca. A 19% hit rate and a 91% strand rate are the real reasons his real ERA is 3 runs less than his xERA. His Dom continues to be low as it was last year before being released by the Rangers in mid-June. His performance so far this year may earn him the opportunity to take on more important roles within the Phillies’ bullpen (suckers!), but his skillzzz deficiencies should prevent him from taking on any kind of role for your team.

Apr 26 The Associated Press' R.B. Fallstrom reports St. Louis Cardinals OF Chris Duncan (head) was not in the starting lineup for the team's game Thursday, April 26, after getting about a dozen stitches for a cut on his head. Duncan had injured himself earlier in the day at his apartment after trying to save time and jumping down three stairs near his door. Duncan entered the game as a pinch-hitter in the eighth and doubled. Duncan wasn't able to get to the stadium in time after getting stuck in traffic. "It was bleeding and I knew something was wrong," said Duncan. "It kind of just split open. I felt like I could play, I just couldn't get here in time."
