The Brewers have been inspired by an addition to their team. Imagine that.

Okay, well, since this game sucks, here's something amusing.
The Nationals are currently drawing only 9,000 fans a game.
On TV. That's right. 9,000. On TV.
9,000 households, but we get your point ... paid attendance averages about 30,000, 15th of 30 in mlb

For comparison, Andruw Jones's is .097. And he is hitting .159 with 2 HR.

Bruce Hurst...have not thought of that name in quite awhile. Anyone know where he is these days?
I had lunch with him once and he was incredibly down to earth. That doesn't answer your question at all, but it gave me the opportunity to go Fenway Whaler on you.

ouch. brett gardner tries to bunt molina to second (no easy task!), and the pitcher makes an error. two on, no outs.

Did Hurst attend the 2004 parade in Boston? Was he on one of the duck boats? I don't remember seeing him.

Proves that the GM doesn't have to hit a home run on all of his moves to win a WS. That being said, I never understood the Cialis like woodie Theo had for Lugo.

If this keeps up I don't expect Lugo to last much longer than the ASB as starter.

What we are seeing right now with Manny is what happens to 36 year-old power hitters who don't use steroids.
It was at almost exactly this age, remember, that Barry Bonds became Barry Bonds.

Manny has really fucking sucked.
He has been the shits since Ortiz went down. One Homer since June 10th!
He drives one ball through a drawn in infield and people act like he hasn't been a fucking joke for about 5 weeks.
