Nothing like watching your ace have to battle and grind just to get through 6 and keep his team in it only to have the hitters come through against the opposing pen.

Nice pitching duel going on right now in the Rays/Rangers game.

Yep, both guys appear to be on their game. This could be fun and frustrating to watch.

Yeah, I would say it's going to be both. At least you guys have gotten some solid contact. We can't seem to even get that.

Josh Hamilton is hurt again. Out 6-8 weeks with a thumb injury.

Water is wet. Grass is green

He was actually off to a good start too.

Darvish is the fastest to 500 K's in MLB history.

Kinda neat.

Ol Suck Ass gets the start Saturday.



I'm not too optimistic for a Darvish like start because I don't think Colby will pitch that bad.

I was impressed with Ervin Santana yesterday. For a guy who got signed in spring training and got pelted in his minor league debut, I did not expect him to go 8 scoreless innings

Should be a pretty great pickup on the free agent wire/late rounds in fantasy baseball

I'm a Beane fan but letting Balfour walk for peanuts and signing Johnson to that amount of cash was just crazy.

How much did Balfour sign in Tampa and was that a discount due to team and/or health concern? Just asking .

He's making $6M a year. He claims he had more offered elsewhere but it was never reported how much. I seriously doubt it was close to the $10M the A's gave Jim Johnson.

I watched Johnson for two years up close and I would have given him away for a reacharound from the Oriole bird.

The most misleading 50 saves you'll ever see.

I hate that douchnozzle Balfour but thought he was good for Oakland. Hard to imagine that they didn't offer that to him and Balfour thought he could get more.
