OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

How'd this leave the first page?

4 games vs a very tough pitching staff: 8-16, 2 HRs, 2 Doubles, and a walk.

Better move him quick, before Schwarber is brought up to DH.

Why aren't CastroBombs FYY material?  I'm cornfused.

Aren't we waiting for Epstink to sign Starlin to a 9-year extension that includes the most restrictive no-trade clause in history to FYC in a way neither Corey Patterson nor Soriano were capable of producing?

Not sure but back on topic for a sec--until now I hadn't actually seen Rizzo's first HR on Saturday.  Kind of sweet that it followed a two-out, opposite field single by Starlin, and way awesome that he nearly hit out on to Sheffield-- a more difficult task than reaching the streets in left-- but I confess to being slightly uncomfortable with his pose/strut.  I mean, I don't mind rooting for a douche if it means a championship, but given a choice, I'd likelike for my guys not to be douches.  Tell me what a prick I'm being.

Since Huey wants to remind everyone which players he had dibs on hating first, I'd like to refresh everyone's memory of this one.

Rizzo's not a douche.

I'm a dickhole.

These are truths.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

That was awesome.  Good on the ump for seeing the whole play through before making the call too.

Noticeably struggling. Hopefully this ends soon. Tonight would be a good time, for example.

Hopefully.  He and Soler are the only guys in the lineup who aren't shitty or having shitty offensive seasons.

Well now Kris Bryant has joined them.
