Anibal dealing.  5 hits, 1 BB, 0 runs in 8 innings with 17 Ks.

The Braves swing at everything.

South Florida Clinic Reportedly Used Fake Prescriptions to Obtain PEDs


Anthony Bosch, the self-described biochemist who operated a series of wellness clinics, used prescription forms that contained forged signatures, stamped with the names and license numbers of legitimate physicians who apparently were unaware of the scheme, sources and documents indicate. Those drugs were prescribed to Bosch's friends and associates and then delivered to professional athletes in order to avoid a paper trail, sources said.

[mr marcus]

 

[jdcurt2]

Did the one he hit today even land yet?

 

[do work son]

Did the one he hit today even land yet?

it's chasing the one he hit yesterday

 

[do work son]

bautista is 4 for his last 26.


3 homers and a double. ton of strikeouts

 

[jdcurt2]

Tony Cingrani is ****** dealin' today. He's been consistently at 96.

 

[do work son]

he also just nearly missed giving up a grand slam. but he's been pretty filthy otherwise, struck out 4 in an inning

 

[proshares]

Colorado calling up another overrated prospect, yay!

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

Both Giants and A's have played like Crap lately

 

[run.lmc]

havent checked the second game of today's action but the first game was absolutely terrible

 

[checks grossman]

Just saw how that A's/Angels game ended last nite...

 

 

[madj55]

It's looking like 2010/2011 all over again for the Nats...mediocre team...and I believed the hype too...

At least this new documentary on Bryce Harper is on ESPN right now so I don't have to watch our game

 

[mfreshm]

Hudson going for win number 200 and he hit a HR.

 

[kevin cleveland]

The calendar doesn't even read May yet and guys are jumping overboard.

It's like these A's fans acting like they have the worst starting pitching that the sport has ever seen.

Relax.

Hudson going for win number 200 and he hit a HR.

Well, it has been pretty terrible.

Anyone know where I can find team pitching ERA by who's catching?

Angels

Hamilton
There was a good fangraphs piece on him yesterday. "...the new Ryan Howard."

Manny Mach Not even at his natural position, but he's already one of the best fielding third basemen in the league. Glad I get to watch this kid for the next decade.

Early going is pretty good, but among other problems, we need someone to hold down that O's second base slot. It's a problem. Roberts will be back eventually, but who knows when how long he'll stay healthy.
