McCann for MVP
Posted on 29 Jun 2011 by Marcus Young.
As Derek Lowe and the Braves try to polish off a sweep of King Felix and the Mariners (up 5-3 in the top of the 9th), one thing has become crystal clear to me during this interleague series: Brian McCann will not only start his first All-Star Game this season, but he's also a bonafide NL MVP candidate. He was the only offense for the Braves in Game 1 for the first 6 innings, keeping Brandon B...

Padres Playing Better As They Win Series Against Braves
Posted on 27 Jun 2011 by Kevin Kelly.
The San Diego Padres look like a team competing to make it to the World Series lately, not a team in last place 10.5 games back with a .430 winning percentage. They went into Boston and took 2 of 3 from the Red Sox and then this weekend they took 2 of 3 from the Atlanta Braves in Petco Park and even got some run production, could San Diego be turning their season around just before the all st...

Braves-Mariners preview
Posted on 27 Jun 2011 by John Morgo.
I thought about wrapping up the Braves-Padres series, but decided a preview of the tilt between the Braves and the Mariners seemed more pressing, especially since the first game of the series goes at 10p EST and I have to get up for work at 5:30a. It's all about priorities. But, let's give a small synopsis of the Pads. The Braves only won one, Saturday, in a 10-1 slugfest, but yesterday Tim Hud...

Home Away From Home: Fish Fall to Mariners
Posted on 27 Jun 2011 by Jon Melton.
SEATTLE GARDENS — The South Florida arrival of the music super-group U2 — and their need for a grandiose stage setup — displaced the Marlins to the Pacific Northwest for a 3-game “home” series against the Seattle Mariners. . After splitting the first two games of series, the Marlins went into Sunday night’s game trying to win its first series since sweeping the Giants in...

LEE HAMELS OSWALT
Posted on 26 Jun 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
Conspiracy theorists pervade modern society, whether they are arguing that the 1969 Apollo Moon Landing was a Hollywood fabrication or debating the merits and subplots of the Kennedy Assasinations. Perhaps you see these people walking the streets with sandwich boards trying to tell us that the world will end in 2012 or that Roswell 1947 was a government cover-up for 60+ years of extraterrestria...

All-Star in Lincecum?
Posted on 23 Jun 2011 by Chris Tolbert.
Alright, the first game of the series was just flat out horrible for Madison Bumgarner who did give up 9 hits before two outs which was a modern Major League Baseball record. However, the Giants, like only the Giants can do, get back up, dust off their shoulders, and just play ball. Last night, Eli Whiteside had one of his better games with a two-run triple and an RBI single for the Giant...

Posted on 23 Jun 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
40 years ago, the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Baltimore Orioles in 7 games to win the 1971 World Series and to celebrate the 40th anniversary, there was no better time than this week when the Orioles came into town. Prior to the game on Monday, they had a question and answer session just outside the ballpark with members of the 1971 team. Before the game on Tuesday, all of the living pl...

Padres Did Not Enjoy Weekend In The Twin Cities
Posted on 21 Jun 2011 by Kevin Kelly.
The San Diego Padres lost another series this weekend as they were swept by the Minnesota Twins as their season continues to spiral downward. San Diego’s record dropped to 30-43, and before this weekend series started they had a winning record on the road, but with the sweep their record on the road was 16-17. They start a series in Boston on Monday night, so their road record will probab...

Indians Sweep Pirates
Posted on 20 Jun 2011 by Justin Welton.
In a game that featured one of the worst lineups I have seen from a team playing with a designated hitter, the Pirates lost 5-2 to the Indians in the finale of a three-game series. The series saw the Pirates score a total of four runs in three losses. Clint Hurdle gave Jose Tabata the day off while placing Andrew McCutchen as DH. He also gave Brandon Wood the start at third base instead of Josh...

Angels bring out the heavy Met-al today in New York
Posted on 20 Jun 2011 by Bill Mahoney.
I said I expected the Angels to sweep the Mets. They did take two of three, and that ain't bad. Did I say that, or did Meat Loaf say it? They don't do it much, but the Angels got good pitching and good hitting on the same day. Being a rookie, Tyler Chatwood can't say anything, but I bet he was frustrated that the Angels couldn't score any runs for him of late. How many runs have the Halos put ...

Indians Regain Division Lead. Pronk Finally Healthy
Posted on 19 Jun 2011 by Bradley Ross.
The Indians had a tumultuous week, but things may not be all that bad. They lost the division lead, but since have gone on a 3 game winning streak to regain the lead. The week started off with losing 3 out of 4 to the Yankees. Carmona and Tomlin continued their slumps against the Yankees and combined for a 12.00 ERA over their 2 starts. The bullpen also was somewhat shaky during these few...
