Tampa Bay's SP Victor Zambrano has already walked 8 batters in his first 3.1 innings in tonight's game.  We must be coming up on some kind of record  :o

Ooooohhh...  So they are going with the card variants on Luke, eh?  Interesting, and as Jeff already pointed out - probably infuriating to lots of collectors.  Since I love the OTC cardbacks myself, I don't mind too much having Luke offered in both different poses.  Kinda cool that way from a carded display standpoint.  But at the same time, it blows if Hasbro's going to whimp out, and only offer the different limbs (and apparently the backpack too) seperately.  Just another example of Hasbro milkin' us like the collecting cows that we are...   :-\

Luke also looks like he's 12 years old.  But at least the R2 is looking great, all mucked up and muddy-like.  I'm definitely digging him...

The standing Luke Dagobah with the hair sculpted down doesn't look a thing like Luke Skywalker though.

Nice figure, but it ain't Luke.

The one with the hair sculpted up with Luke balancing on his hand's is a good likeness though.

I think that who ever has "The Big Unit" on their roster should get bonus points in the JD.com Fantasy Baseball league for his perfect game... ;)

Jeff

Randy's +23 SP performance (+5 W, +5 SHO, +13 K) is the best performance of the year by a SP, tied with Ben Sheets and his win with 18 K's.

Actually, I got the same thing from Jason Schmidt last night with his 13 K 1-hit shutout.

Make that 3 SPs tied for the best.

:)

I jsut wish that the Excedrine Migraine would help with the nausea that comes with some migraines.

Geez, that sounds pretty bad.  Did you know that 70% of all migraines originate in the TMJs?  Believe it or not, a TMJ dental specialist in all likelihood will be able to definitively treat you for this.  Unless you're in the 30% that has some other origin.  Tell your dentist about these headaches at your next visit, see what he/she says.

He did IT!!!  Wow, way to go Big Unit (which BTW is one of the best nicknames ever!)

It was my nickname before it was his.

I picked that game up in the 4th inning when I got tired of the Red Sox beating up the Devil Rays, as soon as they said "Randy Johnson has retired the first 12 in order" my eyes got all big and I was glued to it.

Randy Johnson's got a perfect game going in the 8th.  Put on TBS.

Couple short of the record, but still very impressive.  Not bad...

I was actually on my way to stop in here earlier today with another update on the absolute brilliance and wonder that is Roger Clemens.  Went 7 innings today, no runs, 10 K's, 2 hits, 1 BB.  Leads the majors in wins and ERA now, and is third in K's.  Unfortunately, just 1 out away from getting win #8, Houston's stupid reliever blows the whole game and gives up a 2-run game tying dinger to Piazza in the 9th to ruin Clemens incredible game.  Still another outstanding start nonetheless.  Not to mention this guy's hitting .222 with 4 RBI's in his first season in the NL.  Not too shabby for a pitcher.  I've been a big Rocket fan ever since he first came into the league, so this is really fun stuff to watch from a guy who was retired from baseball just a few months ago!

Unfortunately, my Dodgers aren't faring as well.  4 losses in a row, as the team, and especially the offense, comes tumbling back down to earth.  They're still hanging on to the top record in the NL though.  Angels have dropped a few of late as well, but are still in the #1 spot in the Majors, so I guess I can handle that... :P

Yeah Ben Sheets rocks and either him or Randy Johnson will undoubtedly be in pinstripes by the all star break, maybe a little after.

The Dodgers offense hinges on Shawn Green.  Though he has 7 HR and 18 RBI, he's batting an anemic .236 avg.  That shoulder injury he had 2 years ago caused the 19 HR 85 RBI display last year as opposed to his normal 40 HR 120 RBI.  Adrian Beltre has cooled off.  Milton Bradley is overhyped.  The Dodgers starting staff got hurt by losing Kevin Brown and taking on Jeff "Cheech" Weaver, double whammy there.  And Hideo Nomo and Ishii are pretty much overrated, they generally combine to walk 200 batters per year, which kills them.  Eric Gagne is your stud, he's the best at what he does.  Period.

Still and all, I was picking Arizona to win the NL West with Randy Johnson and Brandon Webb as their # 1 and 2, and with Luis Gonzalez, Richie Sexson, and Shea Hillenbrand in the middle of that lineup, but with Alomar down and Sexson out for some more time,  may have to change that to the Dodgers when all is said and done, especially if Randy Johnson gets traded.

Who knows, LA may win the West after all.  It is the weakest division in baseball.

Milwaukee's Ben Sheets struck out 18 batters today!  I have not seen that in a while!  18 K, ER, BB.

Jorge Posada got hit by a double play relay throw in the face tonight and broke his nose.

Yeah... Uh, sorry 'bout that Matt!   ;)  Our bad.  Then we went and rubbed it in with an 11-2 shelacking of the Yanks.   8)  Now if we could just get Erstadt, Anderson, and Salmon back, this is really gonna be fun!  I may finally get that Freeway Series that I've been dreaming of since I was about 5 years old...   :)

See Clemens blow up again yesterday?  Holy God, that guy's not human!  What an incredible story he is this year.

That's okay, we stuck you with Jeff Weaver, and snatched Kevin Brown!
