Royals are in the middle of their second losing streak of 10+ games this season, and we're only two months in. Ugh.

Wakefield is just getting slapped around this season. I feel bad for him.

errrmmm...one is not hoisted on some random petard, one is hoisted by a petard that is in one's possession.

I knew that.

And.....Dee-troit won again last night. The Tigers are not only leading the AL Central, they've got the best record in all of MLB.

That sound that you heard was Mick having an orgasm.

When the shoes are gone, all that remains are sox.

First it was Matsui's gruesome writst injury, then Mariano injures his back while putting on his shoes, then Sheffield goes on the DL with a muscle strain, and now Jeter gets plunked on the hand (although I heard the x-rays were negative). I'm not sure I've ever seen a stretch where 4 of a team's 5 or 6 most important players get injured in such close succession. Very tough stretch.

On the upside, Moyer pitched a 2-hit gem for Seattle the other night. I heard he's the oldest guy to throw a complete game shutout since Charlie Hough in '90 or something like that.

On the downside, Atlanta gets swept by Arizona in a 4-game series (in Atlanta) for the first time ever. The party may be over for the Braves, I think.
