7/21: Open Game Thread

Boston Red Sox at Seattle Mariners, Jul 21, 2008 7:10 PM PDT






W-LGGSCGSHOSVBSIPHRERHRBBKERAWHIP
2008 - Jarrod Washburn 4-8 19 18 1 0 1 0 104.1 124 59 56 12 30 62 4.83 1.48

2008 - Jon Lester 7-3 20 20 2 2 0 0 125.0 122 50 47 9 44 82 3.38 1.33


Jon Lester could be the biggest, most arrogant prick in the world, and I bet no one in the media would have the balls to call him a clubhouse cancer.

I dunno... I'm intrigued by the Aaron Rodgers era

Not having Favre may be a good thing, in that it’ll finally expose how shitty the Packers really are and how much Favre allowed them to get away with it, and maybe they’ll actually build a decent team for a change.

Cairo at DH may be worse simply because

of the fact that a DH is the easiest thing to find. While the other transgressions are bad, there’s no reason to have a below replacement DH.
