The Orioles are unveiling statues of their all-time greats at their stadium this season (Palmer, Robinson, Weaver, Ripken, etc.).

Others doing this kind of marketing too?

I was listening to the Red Sox game on the radio on the way home from church. They're in Cleveland. The Indians are inducting Gaylord Perry into their Hall of Fame today.

Frank. Brooks is later this summer. (So is Cal actually. I was premature with that one).

They gave Eddie Murray his statue today.

Looks like 6 in a row for the Rays.

Is it for his portrayal of a cop in Beverly Hills?

I know that. But snaqs has trouble sometimes. Just ask him.

Felix Hernandez of Seattle just finished the 3rd Perfect Game in MLB this season. 😮 There have only been 23 in the history of MLB.

Guess it's time to lower the pitching mound again.

Could be that lowering testosterone levels of the hitters was enough to push us back to the baseball of 1969.

Heard what I thought to be an interesting point from Mike Wise the other day on Sports Radio.

He brought up the fact that home field advantage for the World Series this year goes to the National League......as determined by this year's All-Star Game MVP - Melky Cabrera - now suspended for being juiced.......

Is the system Fair or Foul? Does it matter? Stupid idea? Get rid of it?

The whole idea is stupid in general. Let's have players from the Astros or the Twins have a direct hand in who attains home field advantage.

Agree. Might as well use spring training winning percentages to determine World Series home field advantage. Or how about Home Run Derby results? Or let the mascots fight it out? The Racing Sausages, Phillie Phanatic, Wally the Green Monster, Mr. Met, and the rest of the mascots, can slug it out until a winner is declared.

I'm a really pissed off Red Sox fan today. Pissed and embarrassed.
