Guest Queen Leelee Report post Posted May 10, 2007 Brandon Phillips is a fine player, but not fangirl worthy. At least not yet. Eric Milton is injured and won't pitch Sunday. It's possible OMG HOMER BAILEY could pitch. But, it will probably be some peon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 I'm not going Sunday. Way too hot for a day game. The Reds pitching is so terrible that I have a hard time deciding which game to pick. I'll probably go Saturday. The starting pitching has been quite well this season (Harang continues to be criminally ignored) but yes, the pen is atrocious. You're best off arriving to the game around the 7th inning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 I've got tickets to Phillies/Cubs on Saturday. As an aside, don't bother trying to cherrypick wins. Baseball's too random for that. I've seen AJ Burnett get hammered and Ramon Ortiz win on trips to MLB games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 Thursday May 24, Ernie Harwell will do the television broadcast of the Detroit Tigers as their regular broadcaster is attending his son's graduation. If you have access to FSN Detroit, I implore you to watch this game as it's perhaps your last opportunity to hear one of the game's greatest broadcasters.

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 Really? Wow, I hope that one makes it onto Extra Innings. I remember watching a Jays game in Detroit where Ernie Harwell was the guest of the Jays commentators, and he called a little bit of the game. What an amazing voice.

Excuse me for not being optimistic just because the Os swept the D-Rays..YAY..throw a freaking parade downtown baltimore! 3 in a row! .500 is back in sight at 17-18 and they're in 2nd place only 7 games back..yay!

vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2007 The Astros optioned Chris Burke back to AAA to clear a spot for Rick 'Double Balls' White who is back from the 15-day DL. It sucks for Burke that in 2001, he was the Astros 1st round draft pick and the 2nd baseman of the future but got relegated to left field because of Biggio and then, when he got a chance to play everyday in CF this season, went into a 'team-sponsored' slump and was the most easily replaceable because Hunter Pence was mashing in AAA. I swear, if Burke was able to play everyday at 2nd base, he'd be a perennial All-Star contender for years to come. He has nothing left to prove at AAA, but I'd hate to see the Astros trade him.
