Randomness


Random Observations after a whopping 3 days of perusing box scores and Baseball Tonight.

- Twins Opening Day pitcher in 2007: Johan Santana. 2008? Livan Hernandez??

- Boy are the Giants shitty. Check out this opening day lineup:

Dave Roberts
Rich Aurillia
Randy Winn
Bengie Molina
Ray Durham
Aaron Rowand
Jose Castillo
Brian Bocock

Bengie F#cking Molina is your cleanup hitter?? Can you say "opening weekend sweep?"

- Royals pitcher Brian Bannister (who just shut down the Tigers) got 1 question wrong on the math portion of the SAT. Steve Hawking wonders what happened on that one question.

- Anybody see Mt Bowa erupt last night? And he's not even the manager!! 3B coach for the Dodgers...throwing stuff all over the yard. Just another classic meltdown from Bowa

- Speaking of, how many more losses until Pinella goes ballistic? 4? 5? Lee Elia needs company. (Warning, dozens of 4 letter bombs about to go off).

- JD Drew, Prior, Baldelli, Nomar, Pedro, Rolen, Unit, Pavano, and Kelvin Escobar all on the DL. Good to see some things never change.

Former Brewers:

- Matty Wise: still a gas can. Lost the Mets first game by giving up a bomb in the 10th. I'm guessing it was on a 60 MPH change.

- Jenks thus far: 0-3, 1 K

- Sexson: 1-11, 4 K

- Hey, guess who the Mets backup catcher is? How about Raul Casanova. Ha.

- Anybody see this sh!t? Some guy made a replica of Miller Park out of Legos. The f-ing roof opens and everything?

- Goldy, you know what everybody is waiting for....

EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ONLY SPRING TRAINING, I THINK SAN FRAN SMOKED THE CREW A COUPLE OF TIMES...DON'T BE SO HASTY ON THE SWEEP. APPARENTLY THE CREW HAS PROBLEMS PITCHING TO PEOPLE OVER 50...

Close Brad, the changeup Wiser threw was 74 MPH. The AB went Change, Fastball, Change, Change, ballgame. It was dude's first career HR, and he's listed at 6'0" & 170 Lbs. I swear I could go yard on a Wiser change........
