Kershaw, Greinke, Beckett, Ryu... All star team of an infield All star team of an outfield If the dodgers don't win it this year, I hope teams will accept that money can't buy championships and stop giving out stupid contracts...
big parties are planned for Wrigley Field's 100th Anniversary on April 23 or 24.
my favourite Chicago baseball party of all time was "Disco Demolition Night" when the 2nd game of a double header had to be cancelled as 50,000 people burned the grass off the field. 10s of thousands of "Disco Vinyl Records" were destroyed and "Long Live Rock and Roll" posters were every where.

in a short series any team can win. you can greatly improve your chances of a playoff birth by spending lots of cash though.. you cna never guarantee a world series win in any individual year.
Wow, had no idea Ubaldo Jimenez went to Baltimore, along with Nelly Cruz. Sucks that we lost Cruz for last year and let him go... Even with the incident, feel like he was a cornerstone to the team. But glad with the addition of Choo, a good mix of power and speed that can definitely add a compliment to Adrian Beltre and Prince Fielder.
Our pitching rotation would've been baller right from the get-go had they not all gone down like bowling pins... Yu, Harrison, Holland... Bleh. AND SCREW JURICKSON PROFAR, I LOVED IAN KINSLER.
So how many more years are the Dodgers going to win the offseason before it pays off with a title? It didn't work for the Nats or Jays last year, although I think the Dodgers have a better shot.
Went to my first game of the season, Tigers-Royals. Perfect day for baseball, and great game. I'm loving Ian Kinsler already.
I'm so happy that they expanded instant replay for this season. The Tigers challenged two close calls at first, and won them both. And each time it only took about two minutes for the entire review process.
Yeah, even if the instant replay feature takes time out of the game, it should still be used for the sake of accuracy. No one wants a game to spotlighted entirely on a controversial call, and glad they finally implemented a decent use of technology.
My roommate who's at the Pirates game just posted a picture on Facebook of a guy who ran onto the field during the 6th inning pierogi race, outran the police, finished first in the race, and exited by jumping a barrier and down a tunnel in right field. I assume they caught him, but the picture was hilarious.

Oh yeah, the classic Jim Wolf vs Armando Galarraga "staredown". When Armando sort of raised his arms up in celebration and put them back down right away because Wolf called the baserunner safe, I assumed that after the brief eye contact they made, that Armando would start swinging... Awesome guy though, it's like, you had history and a moment to behold taken away from you, and you ain't even mad.
I dunno if Galarraga is doing the same as he once did however, though. Last time, I think it was 2 years ago, he got into a fight in the dugout with one of his teammates or a staff member after struggling to get out of an inning.
Also, yay for Robbie Ross on his decent start against the Phillies in his first career start. And lmfao at Johnathan Papelbon...
