I like baseball cuz it seems to have been a tame sport compared to other sports. But, I am seeing things last year and this year that is making me a bit uncomfortable. One of my teams pitchers beaned someone in the head resulting in multiple facial factures but hopefully no eye injury. It brought me back to the day, before helmets were required, when Tony Conigliaro got beaned in the face and it changed his career and life forever. This week it was a clean tho ugly play at the plate resulting in a broken leg and torn ligaments for Buster Posey. It upsets me when people get hurt like this.

It wasnt intentional. It was an up and in pitch that got away. Tony suffered a facial fracture, dislocated jaw and retina damage. The pitcher Jack Hamilton of the Angels was never the same either. After the incident, he was unwilling to pitch inside anymore. As a result he became a much less effective pitcher. He retired 2 years later.

I need to know...
Is it possible to change "your" team?
Would you change "your" team for a partner? What if "your" team and your partner's team are diametrically opposed??? What if "your" team sucks and your partner's is always in the headlines...in a good way? HELP! I need answers! Concerned Cubs Fan.

Ahhhh Buster Posey... poor young man. My favorite catcher with a fine fne swing. I really hope this injury does not have a long term career affect.

Saw the video of the collision that caused Buster Posey to break his leg. Looked awful -- and with a little too much intent. MLB really needs to establish a guideline with homeplate slides.

Sometimes I think about the 5 pro players get (all sports) and I think yikes- but injuries can halt a career very early for some and this is how they make a living. Plus it isn't a career that one can do for 30-40 years like others. |

following the draft?
My answer would be No.
6 years from now, when they finally show up in the majors, if they haven't been traded like cattle, I won't know who they are, so I never bother. The Pirates (pity them) want so baddly to be taken seriously as baseball owners and not newspaper heirs, have been spamming all of us with draft information. OK, so we Drafted first (that also means we were the worst team in baseball last year) and we selected Gerrit Cole out of UCLA and he comes to us with 3 pitches!......FAKE BOOK (not a typing error) wanted them to pick a bat. Now everyone is bashing the owners (yawn) again.

Whoa! What a game between the Giants and the Nationals. We game back after the 7th to tie it at 4 to 4. Finally, in the 13th, the Giants came through!!
Timmy didn't pitch that well overall, but, hit his 1000th strike-out during his first 5 years!! F***K Yeah!!! But, I am very impressed with Vogelsong. He not only pitches- he hits well and is pretty fast! http://juliantalai.blogspot.com/2011...nts-fight.html Saw my first giants game in CA in 1958 when I was 7 years old- been a long haul to see them doing so well and taking the WS for 2010. Hum Baby!! They had the #29 draft pick... a short stop, guy named Panik. |

MLB draft
Some nice stories out of the draft including 2 teams who picked players who sustained spinal cord injuries - one playing the game and the other in a recreational accident. They may never play pro ball or walk again but the pro teams honored the potential they saw in these 2 young men by selecting them. Nice job Rangers and Astros. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/blog/big...urn=mlb-wp8932 And, my old Red Sox players are whipping old Yankee butt this week. WTG guys.
