I can't believe Dan's not posting about Pedro plunking 3 guys last night. The Mets hit 5 batters total. Then when the Nats pitcher hits his first guy of the night, he's immediately tossed, along with Frank Robinson. Go figure.

26 Year Gap

At a divorce hearing, the judge asked the 12 year old child if he wanted to live with his mother. "No,"' he said. "Why not?" replied the judge. "She beats me," said the young man. So the judge asked if he would like to live with his father. "No", said the boy. "He beats me too." The judge asked, "Well who do you want to live with?" "The Cubs," said the boy. "The Cubs?" asked the judge. "Why would you want to live with the Cubs?" The boy answered,"Because the Cubs never beat anybody."

Anybody notice that our very own DAN was honored last night during the Oakland A's home game? For some reason, the name "DAN" was patterned into the infield dirt behind second base. I had no idea our buddy had so much influence in the Bay Area.

How bout that St. Louis bullpen, BTW? Ouch.

And, now that I think of it, how 'bout that Boston bullpen?!!? Yeeee-ha!

That story is so last century.

(Come to think of it, so is their last World Series appearance.)

Sigh...

But, on the bright side, I have a broom propped up next to my desk for the benefit of those Cardinal fans in my office. Hey, I know it's barely April; I just need to get my digs in whenever I can.

I know there's no crying in baseball, nor are there excuses.

BUT (which of course means, void everything I just previously stated 😃) the Cards bullpen was horrible, that's all that I really have to say about that. (A little Forrest Gump plug there.)

Yep, the Cardinal pitching staff was a lot like a box o' chocolates...

Whaa...? Inter-league play already? I thought the Cubbies had the day off?

The Cubbies usually have a lot of days off.......quite a few of them when they're supposed to be playing unfortunately.

That's funny ! 😀
I guess the Champs are better than the Royals, but are the Champs better than the Rangers ?
On the plus side, the Tigers haven't had an error in 7 games.
That's an upgrade.

Frank Robinson and the pitcher Rodriguez get suspended, but no punishment for any of the Mets pitchers.

All this bullpen talk and no mention of the Braves? Once again they have decided to give the season a go without a real closer. Not sure that they have a set up man either... Or anyone who can get someone out!

PS Their starters have exactly ZERO wins thusfar.

PPS Chipper is on the DL already.
