MLB 2010 Season

[Ramy]

Dice-K again has a no-hitter through three!

Why are you even mentioning a no no after just 3 innings???

 

[AntAltMike]

Dice-K pitched a two hitter. Unfortunately, he walked 8.

Next he'll be calling Shut Outs thru 3 !

...who's hotter than David Ortiz?

Just some guy I've never heard of named Nelson Cruz.

In spite of a pathetic entire month of April, Ortiz is now 8th in the league in homers in about 40 fewer at bats than the leaders, and second in homers per at bat, trailing only the mysterious Mr. Cruz. Ortiz has also worked his way up to 22nd in RBI and is presently 5th in RBI per at bat.

Cruz has missed 17 games, including tonight's, yet has 10 homers and 34 RBI in just 106 at bats, along with a .330 batting average. He couldn't make a major league roster in 2008 and had to be released because he was out of options, and presently is playing this year for the bargain basement price of just $440,000.

So much for my boy Wakefield bailing out the starting rotation...

Nelson Cruz has been out there for a long time ..... just not someone you hear much from.

I don't know where you found the stats on Ortiz, I find them interesting ....
Do they list like the top 10 type thing ?

If so, where does Miguel Cabrera show up on those lists ?

I didn't find them. I "ciphered" them.

ESPN's site has "sortable" stats. You click the catagory you're interested in, and it rearranges the players names by that stat. When it comes to mental arithmetic, I'm half way to being an idiot savant, and I can further process them from there.

I forgot about the sortable section.....

fwiw,

Miguel Cabrerra :

BA. .341 (4)
HR 13 (4)
RBI 44 (1)

I'll take Miguel over David Ortiz any day.
Hopefully he doesn't replace Ortiz anytime soon.

After last year's bitter ending (the scrapes on his face and the alcohol recab), Cabrera has rebounded with a vengeance so far.

From the looks of things, he has been doing very well and possibly that weekend was a one time thing.

 

[Ramy]

How about them Reds? They are doing great now, just hope they can keep it up.

Did anyone see the celebration after that walkoff grand slam? Guy broke his ankle when he tried to jump on the plate.

On this day in 1941 -- June 2 1941 -- Lou Gehrig died of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis at the age of 37.

 

[Ramy]

I am so glad I have EI. I love listening to Vin Scully call a baseball game.

 

[DodgerKing]

Jim Joyce will now be known as the umpired that took the perfect game away.
