An anagram of Matt DeSalvo's name is "Me, a vast dolt." Also, "toad slam vet." I'm not going anywhere with this.

OZZIE GUILLEN = I NOZZLE GUILE
JOSE ARIEL CONTRERAS = SATAN, LOSER REJOICER
FREDDY ANTONIO GARCIA = GORY AID FOR DANTE IN CA
SCOTT ERIC PODSEDNIK = I DOCK TINTED CORPSES

though the best baseball name anagram ever IMO is "Chase Cameron Utley", which goes to "An Ace Homers Cutely".  I love that guy :)

I though all my respect for Clemens was gone
But he chose to back the losing side, rather than go to Boston and pile on.

So my respect quotient for Clemens is now up to .0000000000000000000000000000001

When Cowboy Kenjima is hitting higher than 7th its a good move, or at least a better move than usual.

I'm excited to see Vidro batting 2nd, see what happens. If Ichiro gets on base(IF), then we have 2(two) players who are less hacktastic than usual(Adrian).

I like Jamie Burke's: Abjure Mike.  The anagram straight up told Hargrove to go fuck himself!

Maybe Johnny Damon will hit one for me, as another lefty who throws like a girl.

Hmm, figures
I get on the internet to look at the box score, and on a whim I look---yep, there it is!  GIDP:  Jose Vidro.  His pursuit of the major league record may be the 2007 equivalent of Ichiro! chasing the hits record.
[frown] Hmm, it's a tight game and here comes Mateo. [smile] Guess Hargrove will be gone that much sooner!

apologies...
YES had reported the splits as the opposite and noted that it was odd that Abreu was hitting better off lefties. Guess they had it wrong; shows me for trusting YankeeTV

A "tough break for DeSalvo"?
Getting to face the Mariners makes him about as lucky as you can be.

by Jeff on May 7, 2007 6:26 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

whatever
we got a freakin gift, but DeSalvo didn't deserve a win, so it's all good.

I'd feel sorry for the Yankees getting screwed...
But the incessant bull** about Roger Clemens has deadened my ability to feel anything but hateful glee towards them.

I'm sorry...
but would we be hearing this kind of outrage from the ESPN announcers if that had been the other way around.

Fuck the Yankees.

That replay still-frame of Willie
Show he is, at the very least, 7 years from second.  And I love every meter of it.

Okay
This time, I'm not calling George's brother.

Last time I did that, GS52 didn't do so hot.  

(knocks on wood, strokes rabbit's foot, avoids black cats and ladders...)

Must. Not. Jinx. George.

Disagree...
From 1984-1987, Mattingly was one of the best hitters in baseball, especially by OPS+.  No, his success wasn't sustained and injuries sucked the hell out of his later years.  But, if I had to draft a player between 84 and 87, Mattingly would be one of my first choices.
Hello, Richie? Stop sucking. kthxbye!

Booo
Don Mattingly is the only Yankee I really liked.

(unless you include the later on in career Yanks like Arod, Justice...)

Yanks still suck, though.

Hmmm.
Bloomquist distracted the ump with a massive smokescreen of grit and hustle.  

Somehow, that needs to be photoshopped...

when every Mariner fan wanted Putz off the roster circa pre-splitter?

Sometimes it happens. Maybe they should be talking more about how the mighty Yankees could muster only two runs off Miggy Batista.

There is one bad thing about the Gamer call
is that BBTN will spend 30 minutes discussing it (sandwitched between 20 Minutes of Roger Clemens signing talk).

2 Minutes of baseball hightlights, 5 minutes of WebGems and Homeruns.

And no mention of the Yankees actually losing the game.
