Happened on the 56th anniversary of Herb Score getting hit by Gil McDougald's line drive.
Unless he has a series lead in the postseason, then you can count on the choling to commence soon.
"one of the unluckiest ... ever to play the game"--not really, he keeps using the idiotic Tom House method and keeps getting injured. That's not unlucky, that's just stupid to keep doing the same...
You mean how he was only going to a temporary commissioner in 1992, or when he was going to resign once the 2002 labor deal was done, or how he was going to retire in BOTH 2009 and 2012 when his...
It would help Boras if he'd cut way back on the absurd hyperbole: he called Michael Bourn "a franchise player," which isn't even remotely connected to the truth.
40 years ago today, George Steinbrenner bought the Yankees for $9-10 million. Now, the franchise is probably worth $2.5 billion. Somebody was responsible for that ridiculous increase in value.
For the first 15 years of his career, Sutton played for the Dodgers, though free agency wasn't available for the first 2/3 of that span. After he signed with Houston, he tripled his salary, then was...
The players didn't have the option to leave a team to sign elsewhere. Also, for all the people whining about players not staying with one team their whole career, what do Hall of Famers Babe Ruth,...
Nobody "reads" Bleacher Report. They just look at all the manufactured lists so that BR can rack up phony page views.
I recall a similar complain from fans--in 1979, when Tommy John signed with the Yankees for $575,000 a year.
"Special assistant" means he's there for window dressing and won't have any real input. He'll be used to gladhand sponsors at golf tournaments, etc.

What about the hits taken away because the fielder gets a perfect hop on turf instead of a crazy bounce on some pockmarked field. If Cleveland Stadium had turf in 1988, Dave Stieb would have had two...
If you had to work with Darin Sutton, wouldn't you drink?
Wow, he dominated in a game against guys who aren't good enough to play in even the lowest minor league. Next, you'll tell me he threw a no-hitter against a junior college team...
People seem to...
1991 Indians: 57-105
If LeBron decides to chime in, he would be considered Front Runner, since he grew up in the 90's and rooted for the Yankees, Cowboys and Bulls. A few weeks ago, he was photographed at the Olympics...
He did file for bankruptcy a few weeks ago:violin:
The whole idea of devotedly following whatever Andrews and Fleisig say is beyond laughable. They don't know their *** from a hole in the ground when it comes to PREVENTING injuries.
A few years...
Probably his massive ego. According to 60 Minutes, HE was responsible for the Red Sox winning two World Series. Had nothing to do with signing Manny Ramirez to a nine-figure contract as a free agent,...
I assume Arch Stanton is under the age of 30, since he obviously doesn't remember when the Indians sucked in the 1960's, the 1970's, the 1980's, then hit bottom in 1991 with a record of 57-105.
I'm guessing you mean Brandon Webb. He was last heard of in February, getting ready to throw for some teams. I imagine it didn't go well, if only because this was noted BEFORE he threw: "The...
"Schilling is a Libertarian"--That's why he appeared with G.W. Bush and John McCain at campaign rallies and endorsed Republican Scott Brown for the Massachusetts senate seat. Oh, yeah, he griped...
