    Your best is to wait until an hour or so before gametime and Yahoo will show whether a particular player is starting that game. It's a bit annoying when the game times are staggered, I'll admit.

    besides giving up home runs, my pitching has been the best its been in a while

    and anytime my offense stay within range of stealing a couple of categories, that's a win for me

    Nelson Cruz single-handedly beat the Rays today. Awesome.

    Orioles' magic number is 12.

    About time he started to pretend that he's worth that contract.

    And yeah I know I'm supposed to be pumped but I've been passive aggressive towards the Angels all season and it seems to be working.

    Its one pitcher, the rest of my staff of awesome can hopefully compensate. I mostly wanted his Ks.

    After watching the Cubs center fielder misplay a flare to shallow center that leads to Adam Lind getting a triple (sidenote: how the hell does Lind have two triples this season? He's possibly the slowest non-catcher in MLB), which then snowballs into a ten-batter, five-run, two-error eighth inning, I begin to understand why people feel sorry for Cubs fans.

    Ron Washington resigned citing personal reasons

    that personal reason might be no longer having a world-eating lineup to mask his mismanagement of the pitching staff

    i am in the camp that believes managers are really only empowered to break even or do harm, and Wash was notable for doing harm in late innings

    the last time the cubs were in the playoffs the entire infield made an error

    We could go on and say their insane run differential would never maintain...but man this is startling.

    They overvalued guys like Norris, Vogt, and Moss. They're decent hitters, but they were never going to maintain what they were doing.

    Also a lot of their pitchers over-performed, and it turns out Hammel and Smardzija might not have been quite as good as advertised.

    This is what happens when you rely on a bunch of overperforming hitters and pitchers. At some point, they're going to regress back to the mean.
