Major League Baseball 2012

The reds pulled another one out

This may be premature, but if the Reds end up taking the World Series under Jocketty, he seriously needs to be considered for the HOF.

The guy just has a knack of putting winning teams together.

You forgot, Dusty Baker is the manager.

"In Dusty We Trusty"...I still remember that being the motto for Cub fans around here.

I haven't watched any Reds games this year...I wonder if he still chews on that toothpick like he does?!!?

And who could forget the creepy Zimmer bear.

Sounds like a dream job to think up this stuff!

Did they have a matching Pedro Martinez bear throwing Zimmer down?

^^ The most important performance of the four was what Lincecum did the other night.

Youkilis is coming back to Boston tonight and on the same day the Sox DFA Lillibridge.

Another fantastic job by Cherington getting two nickels for a quarter, and one of those already fell out of his pocket.

the reds broke out the brooms on st. louis last night

How about my beloved A's!?! On fire!!

 

[EXOTICLEX]

Yep they are on fire. Been getting some good pitching.

 

[jimmie_dimmick]

Cespedes got AL player of the week and Gomes was runner up. With Moss still coming to play every night and Carter finally doing well in the bigs vs AAA, they are actually in the wild card race (doubt they will catch Texas but you never know).

And with the playoff format this year, they and many other teams should be alive until the end. Even my pitiful Sox.

8 teams within 1.5 games of one of the WC spots. Should make for a good Aug/Sept.
