• Mets, Cubs, Royals among most disappointing MLB teams so far - Jon Heyman
"• While the Nationals have played better under interim manager Jim Riggleman, it's expected that they'll choose someone else as manager for next year."

"Washington Post writer Chico Harlan wrote the other day, in a post at the Nationals Journal entitled, "Riggleman's Future" about how the Washington Nationals were over (to paraphrase Mr. Harlan's list) the Bowden Era, Smileygate, the debate over Ryan Zimmerman's extension, the Manny Act Must Go Movement, and the Why Not Mike Rizzo? drama, and were now left with just one big question to be answered before moving on to 2010: Is Interim Manager
"Jim Riggleman here to stay?..."

We didnt call anyone up did we?
I was at the Chiefs game yesterday. It was a real tough loss in the late innings. They now trail by 3.5 games with 8 games to go. Too Bad…
However, I caught an Ian Desmond foul ball. That’ll be worth big bucks someday…….

in the post game interview, Riggles said that Livo freelanced that almost squeeze bunt. Livo was supposed to be hitting or just take and easy out..not get 2.

In 2 short days, I've come to detest Venable.
Since when did the Padres become defensive geenyuses?

So I’m watching the game see Elijah get picked off on an OBVIOUS balk and thought, I need to vent about this.
So I come on here do a search for “balk” and see nothing. Shaaaaame!
Thank you.
Now just to support the statement, I’m going to post a link to the rule, and quote the specific rule [8.05©] with emphasis from me:
The pitcher, while touching his plate, fails to step directly toward a base before throwing to that base
Dibble actually started reading the rulebook too...

Obviously a balk...
but Dukes gets picked off all the time. Two stolen bases…ten caught stealing & pickoffs.
Yeah, but just because Dukes sucks ass at stealing and taking a lead it doesn’t make that motion any less of a balk.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.

Ed still hasn't stopped crying about Nick being traded.
However, as we speak, Nick is on the DL and it’s not known when he’ll return tot he lineup for the fish.
I change my signature to match the Nats’ play.
I think we’ll be going with clowns and circus music tomorrow!

Sadly no.
Perhaps I worded it incorrectly. I add quotes to admonish the Nats for their poor play.
The bullpen has been a source of extreme pain this season. They desperately need a strong bullpen.
