You know, after watching that video a few more times, I'll say this: Alcantara's attack is definitely more hardcore, just not nearly as damaging.

I'm still surprised he didn't drop the bat.  How has that not happened anywhere yet?  A dude charging the mound with the bat?  Even in insanity, there is some level of discretion in baseball.

Sincerely,

Charles Martin


Sounds like someone was working as a conduit for nature's natural vengeance.  Just like Jesus.  And some of the others.

Poor Nats fans.

I learned not to get attached to a pitching stud the hard way, twice.

a guy like Strasburg was going to need TJ surgery sooner or later. better for the Nats it happen now, while he the team still sucks.

and if this leads to the team severing ties with Dibble, we all win a little.

For sure. Also, I have little doubt that Strasburg will still be an effective pitcher once he recovers from TJ surgery. That 100 mph fastball, however, may be gone forever.

Considering Cincinnati is the Tea Party's Midwest Capital (or it seems that way at least), I'm surprised it wasn't a Reds dude. All the more reason to crush St. Louis I suppose.

One month of Manny Ramirez for $3 million plus? It seems like the White Sox are spending a lot of money to cement their hold on second place.

The White Sox are the kings of the bold, expensive, dumb move.

Man, I wish St. Louis could put together a team like the Phillies. I'm so jealous of the Zeiglers.

Also, to revisit the Cueto thing - make that a career-ending injury to Jason LaRue.  Not like he wasn't close to retirement already, but still.

Looking back at this thread and I can't believe I bought into the Mariners hype at the beginning of the season... nailed the Red Sox though.
