I agree with you regarding Joe Torre. Dreamweapon – I didn’t get to see Timmy pitch today, but I wouldn’t go dropping him just yet.

Bedard is back. Josh Johnson is going to be a top 10 pitcher. He is just filthy. Weapon, unfortunately with pitchers, last year may have been the best we will ever see out of Lincecum. You just never know. Zito, Sheets, Prior all had one great year. Maybe something is bothering him? Mechanics? Who the fuck knows? Not that I usually disagree with Dalton, but it is just plain loco taking a pitcher in the 1st round. Speaking of Dalton. Where is the latest scoop? lol How bout them Mariners?? Bedard is back.

WTF is wrong with Tiny Tim? I haven't seen much of either outing, but that's two steaming turds in a row. And against the toothless Pads? Should we be concerned. It's only by fortune that I managed to hang on and win this week despite Timmy and F-Bomb killing me at the front end. Thank GOD for JJ, Bedard and ol' Snakebit himself, Matty Cain. 2. Is Joe Torre the dumbest manager in baseball? I know six games is hardly challenging DiMaggio, but a hit streak is a hit streak. Why did he sit Kemp today in favor of Peter Pan Pierre? So dumb. Kemp kept it going in a pinch appearance despite the mismanagement, I can't wait for him to crank this thing up to 15 games so Torre really freaks out--"no no, he's way too hot, we have to sit him down and cool him off a bit". I'd say Torre is the Phil Jackson of baseball, but that would imply he was able to win with the best talent in more than one place. Overrated, and a horrible, horrible tactician. Couple of things:

Now now, Wilford, having "diabeetiss" doesn't give you license to be a unctuous hypocrite, go back to your oatmeal, the world has passed you by. How about that Gallardo kid, eh? Pretty crazy that he was the first pitcher to ever tag Johnson for a HR given the length of the career in question. I know he was just throw the bat out there and praying, for all intents and purposes, but dead left at neo-Candlestick (I've given up trying to learn these new corporate names, they change by the fortnight)....good stuff. Too bad he only pitches once every five games because the Crew looks to be dead in the water when he's not on the mound. Jeffress, I sympathize with your way of life, trust me, but you gotta put down the bong, buddy, we need help. And, if you apply yourself now, you'll be able to buy a mountain of the sticky icky when you retire, and perhaps a private island somewhere to enjoy it on.

Votto is looking like 2007 Prince Fielder Redux too. And Dreamweapon, Wilford Brimley resents your harsh words.
