royallypwned Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 How in the world did he make it out of the stadium? Didn't he get escorted out by police? I think I remember something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticksboi05 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 (edited) The Braves but I'd rather be a Marlins fan. 2 World Series > 1 World Series. You always take championships as a fan, division titles get old real quick. Edited July 29, 2010 by Sticksboi05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticksboi05 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 How in the world did he make it out of the stadium? Escorted out by security. There's video on Youtube though it happened 2 years before Youtube was launched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LApunkrocker72 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Well, my Angels got swept by Boston today. And to top things off, Pineiro is out 6 to 8 weeks -- dealing another blow to our pitching staff. We pretty much have to sweep Texas at home this weekend to remain in the hunt for the AL West crown. If the Rangers win 2 or 3 games at the Big A, it might well be curtains for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattFancy Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Why would Derek Lee veto a trade to the Angles? Does he really like Chicago that much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissU28 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Was at the Padres/Dodgers game last night- what a GREAT game! Joe Torre kept bringing out different pitchers, but they were no match They walked Adrian to make the bases loaded for Chase Headley, and Headley alllllmost surprised us all with a grand slam.

The Tris Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Before Phillies fans start sucking each others popsicles, pertinent stats: In 7 reg-season starts vs. the Braves, Roy Oswalt is 0-3 w/ a 7.58 ERA & .354 opponents’ avg. It's his worst record & ERA against any team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattFancy Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=5420095 Roy Oswalt has officially accepted his proposed trade to the Philadelphia Phillies, a baseball source familiar with the discussions said Thursday. A source said after considering his options and speaking with friends familiar with the Phillies' situation, the Houston Astros' staff ace waived his no-trade clause in order to be dealt to Philadelphia. The Astros will pay $11 million of the approximately $23 million that the 32-year-old right-hander is guaranteed through 2011, sources said. Oswalt did not demand that his 2012 mutual option for $16 million be picked up by the Phillies, a baseball source told ESPN.com's Amy K. Nelson. Instead, if either he or the Phillies chose not to pick it up, his $1 million buyout will increase to $2 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCranon21 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 (edited) Looks like a rematch of the Phils vs Yankees after this deal. Now if the Phillies can go back into hitting, it will be trouble for the rest of the NL. Wonder if the Phils are kicking themselves for giving up Lee last offseason.

thebluefood Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 When the Phils get their bats back, they're winning another pennant. I thought it was going to be the Cardinals, but the Phillies are looking crazy good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubble Screen Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 When the Phils get their bats back, they're winning another pennant. I thought it was going to be the Cardinals, but the Phillies are looking crazy good. Pump the brakes here. Teams go through ups and downs all year. The Braves started off horribly. Then couldn't hardly lose the next two months. The Mets even went through a nice hot streak. And now it seems its the Phillies' turn. I wouldn't go overboard though. And I still believe the Braves will win the East. And the Phillies will take the wildcard. Even with the addition of Oswalt, im not convinced they have more depth in their starting rotation than the Braves do. And I know they don't near as good a bullpen. But they do have Utley coming back. That can only help. However, I will say this. Once the playoffs start they will be really set. Can't think of a better 1-3 rotation for the playoffs than what the Phillies can run out there. And they have alot of experience as well. I just think people are overreacting though. They're already putting dirt on the Braves. Not very wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubble Screen Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 If they can get Utlety, Howard, Werth, and Victorino hitting again, they will be very dangerous. Victorino is on the DL, dude. And I don't think Utley has come back off of yet. And Werth, more than likely, will be dealt. If they are gonna bring up this Brown kid, there's no way they are bringing him up to sit.

If they are gonna bring up this Brown kid, there's no way they are bringing him up to sit. Right I know Utley and Victorino are on the DL. That's what I'm saying, if they can all get back to hitting how they should, they could be very dangerous. I should've included that in my original post.

royallypwned Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Good move for the Rangers. Cantu is very underrated. We needed more production out of firts base since the Rangers by far had the least 1B production of nay team. Collectively we've hit about .200 from that spot. Plus we needed a righty bat to split time with the lefty we currently have. Rangers also traded for Cristian Guzman from the Nats today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
