Damn Yankees! Oops, that slipped out DW, honest!

I agree 100%, Allstar as a non starter had never been done before AFAIK.

I bet they kicked their own arse last year over that silly trade.

Infante makes almost $10 million less than Uggla. I like Uggla, but anytime teams that don't have all that much money to spend go after someone like that, it is very susceptible to backfiring. Infante and Prado, both from Venezuela, I thought they would both be a solid part of the team for years. Prado will not be cheap to sign when he becomes a free agent. He might head to the Damn Yankees!

Just think where the Braves would be if either he or McCann had decent bats this year. They could still help out though.... opportunity is knocking...

So, how good are major league baseball players?

They're good but that looks 'shopped.

Yeah, I noticed in the comments, sure fooled me... After watching it a couple times, it looks like the batter doesn't follow the ball which is weird, so I think you are correct.

There was a video of Kobe ( I think?) hitting jump shots fom nearly full court. I swore it was real after seeing it multiple times but have been told it is not.

OK, I know this one is clean, Braves getting loose.... actually pretty funny....

Thanks Tree!
They do take their fun "seriously". I got a good chuckle.

OK, just finished watching the Braves win, they showed a photo in Nationals Park of jerseys with Nats, 2012 NL Eastern Division champions for sale there.

Not cool! That might sting...

Best NLCS ever, if you are a Braves fan.

1996 NLCS, ATL vs. STL

Game one: ATL 4-2
Game two: STL 8-3
Game three: STL 3-2
Game four: STL 4-3
Game five: ATL 14-0
Game six: ATL 3-1
Game seven: ATL 15-0

Wiz?

Fister sets new AL record, strikes out 9 in a row. Detroit up over Sox by 2.

Hi all.... six games left and AL divisions yet to be determined and AL wild cards up for grabs yet. Love it.

My Texas Rangers are poised to win AL West but poised in baseball doesn't hold a great deal of weight. If Oakland wins out, Texas would have to sweep the Angels (not an easy thing) so Texas needs both one win against the Angels and one against Oakland to win the division but doing only that would likely yield the best record to the Yanks or Baltimore.
