WTF is this.

Dots :ols:

They don't even have a face lol

hey we've done the dot race for years and years. :ols:

It used to just be on the video screen until they made it "live" down the left field line. The funniest part of the whole thing is that they "start" the race in some location in downtown Dallas or Ft Worth. They show these dots on the video screen running around like that with cars whizzing by probably wondering WTF is going on. :ols:

Best part of yesterday was listening to John Sterling. That guy is unintentionally hilarious.

Yeah, like the Phillies didn't do anything to improve their team

Oh wait

Dude, of course they improved their rotation. However, injuries have caught up to them. Doesn't matter how great your pitching is if you can't score. Utley is a huge loss for that team. And I'm sure at some point this year Rollins' body will once again fail him. The Braves are a better all around team.

Problem with the Phillies is their offense. Yes their pitching is amazing, but if Utley is out awhile, they don't have much around Howard. Rollins usually misses a good amount of games and they don't have Werth anymore. Plus, Lidge is already hurt for them too. The Phillies have the pitching, but IMO, the Braves are the more complete team.

Should have kept reading, as you just basically said the same thing I just posted. All of that is true.

Bucs win! Bucs win! And there was nooooooooooooooooooooo doubt about it!!!

Neil Walker with el Salami Grande! McCutcheon with a two-run bomb! Break 'em up!!!!

Dude every year is the same thing, the Pirates get off to a decent start (for the Pirates, anyway) and then they come crushing back down to earth, finishing their usual 40 games out. lol

Yanks GM: Mets taxed Pedro Feliciano

By Mike Mazzeo

Special to ESPNNewYork.com

NEW YORK -- New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman was forthright when asked about the New York Mets' usage of left-handed specialist Pedro Feliciano last season, calling it "abusive."

Feliciano (left rotator cuff strain) is currently on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to March 22. He is scheduled to begin throwing Wednesday. And depending how that goes, the Yankees will then determine how they want to proceed moving forward. He will need to complete a throwing program before he returns.

Feliciano led the majors in appearances the past three seasons, and in 2010, he became just the fifth pitcher in MLB history to make 90 or more appearances.

"He was abused," Cashman said. "It's a thin market when you're looking for lefties, and he's one of the better ones out there. But you don't typically go after a guy who's been used like that.

"The use pattern was abusive."

Mets pitching coach Dan Warthen says he is not an abuser.

Warthen said Feliciano's setting franchise records for appearances three straight years (86, 88 and 92 games) was done willingly by the southpaw.

Warthen said about the left-hander's heavy workload: "[The Yankees] didn't know that when they signed him? ... He volunteered for the baseball every day. He was asked whether he was able to pitch. He said 'yes' every day -- every day -- and wanted to pitch more than we even pitched him."

_____________________________________________________

Talk about your douchebag Yankee's arrogance. The current GM ****ing about how the free agent they signed was overused in the past.

Maybe they should just call the Rangers now and ask them to put CJ Wilson on a pitch count. Better save that arm for the huge contract he'll get from them.

Lackey - total failure

Lester - above average

Beckett - above average

Matsuzaka - bust

Bucholz - above average

Smh

Funny how the Orioles, Yankees, and even the Blue Jays are outpitching the Red Sox. I can't believe I pimped that rotation as better than NYY's.

ix, You always jump to conclusions. Too early to determine who has a better rotation, man. Calm down.

Losings one thing, getting shellacked three games in a row is another :doh:

I expect Boston to come right back and win at least two vs the Indians if not sweep them. Besides, the Red Sox won't be the last team the Rangers will do that to this year. But damn, I didn't expect quite that much of an offensive outburst. wow
