That bastard hit a 2 run homer and hit another RBI in the Jays loss to Chicago on Thursday.  Wells is awesome though. He's such a joke.  ah Alex Rios, guy never met a wall he didn't cower away from. I don't care how well he does for Chicago I'm glad he's gone. Same goes for Brandon League, not having to look at that mouth breather makes that trade a win even if Morrow's career were to end today. Agreed on the League trade... well I'm agreed all around actually. Fuck Rios. Anyways, I couldn't be happier with Morrow. He's not the most consistent, but the dude puts on championship caliber performances more often than not.

 Re: 2012 Baseball Thread
Both the NL and AL East divisions are huge this year. One team under .500 in each division at the moment, and there have been times when all teams in both divisions were above .500. Will be interesting to see if it stays this competitive all summer.

I'm really hoping he stopped blowing saves for a reason other then spitballs. I like it when he doesn't fuck up

Good, good, Morrow's probably going to be out for at least a good six weeks or so. Last place, Toronto's coming for you!

Cliff Lee has ZERO wins so far this year. WTF? He seemed like such a solid pick in the pool, too

Halladay, Lee, Lincecum, Hernandez. All not doing so hot. Verlander and Kershaw are still tanks. Greinke's doing alright too. Anyways, a pitcher's win/loss record isn't all that important... Though I guess for the Pool sake it is. :p Lincecum is doing the worst of the bunch. He's thrown a few good games, but he's been getting pounded more often than not this year.

 Re: 2012 Baseball Thread
I got three gems last night (and three wins) from Sabbathia, Miley, and Dickey in the fantasy league. And then Brett Myers goes and gives up 5 runs in 2/3 of an inning.

And that's not counting the "advanced metrics" that are in vogue right now. Wins for pitchers really don't mean a whole lot. Same for saves.

 Re: 2012 Baseball Thread
Definitely a down year for Lincecum. I would still want him on my team though.
