Tom Turner Lincoln, CA
Looks like he's going to try to hook up with another club, and if nothing materializes, he'll be playing some minor league ball for Tampa. A far cry from what he said a few days ago. How far this...

With all of the warm-fuzzy feelings coming from the Rick Ankiel comeback story, we get this:http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=300836312-month supply of HGH from a Florida pharmacy in...
Listening to KNBR out here in CA, and they just announced that the Giants have traded Matt Morris to:Get this...Pittsburgh.For Rajai Davis and a PTBNL.Can someone tell me what Pitt is going to do...

This is from an NY Post story on Giambi:"Before Yankee fans get hot about their team acquiring right-handed hitting first baseman Mark Teixeira from the Rangers, forget it. The Yankees know the...
Looks like Nick Swisher went out with a hammy strain. I've been listening to the game for the last 20 minutes but haven't heard anything else on it:h...

Here's an interesting tidbit for those who are disappointed with the pitching received at the deadline. From Tom Verducci:The toughest commodity to find at the trading deadline is a starting...
According to the DMN, Daniels and the Rangers were just informaed today of the fact that Vicente Padilla was arrested for DUI on July 7. Not good.Also, Blalock says he is confused about his role...
Lineup is up. Laird starting for the 3rd game in a row. And against a righty (but he's hitting 9th because, you know, he struggles against the righties):h...
Down 7-4 to KC, bottom 7.The Angels have made 4 errors. ...
Texas finally pulls one out, and then Oakland wins 5-4, while the Angels scored 5 in the 4th to take a 5-1 lead on Cleveland.Sucks. ...
This ESPN Deportes broadcast has me longing for Joe Morgan, sadly enough.What is with the goddam drawn out homerun calls? This is not pansy-ass soccer...
Tonight is an instance where a serious ass-thrashing on Larry Young and Tom Hallion is completely and totally warranted.Someone should have rung each of their bells.I'm expecting some venom in the...
Apparently failed a test in 2003. Admitted to using steroids, HGH and amphetamines. Named others who he believed were using. Had his home searched today:http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13173947/ ...
KC comes from behind to take down the f'in A's in 10 innings.The Twins need to learn to beat the Angels, however (in fact, Texas needs to learn it as well).Regardless, 5 game lead. Woohoo! ...
