CC Sabathia went through another complete game, his third in a row.

My goodness my Jays are stinking. I'm still in shock that they managed to blow a 6-0 lead but for the Jays that just wasn't enough, they wanted to blow a 2-run lead in the bottom of the 9th... Marcum had a good start to his outing but then he decides to start being soft. About Ryan, I don't even know what to say, you're supposedly suppose to be our best relief pitcher.
In my mind, we have next to no chance of making it into the playoffs. Yeesh, what an ugly game.

Meh the A's suck now =O
Dang farm team >=0 especially since all they ever trade for are pitchers. They need some batters now -__-

Go Red Sox! (No Im not a bandwagoner, I started cheering for them the year they were up 3-1 on on the Yankees and lost cause I saw so many Yankees fans around that I decided to cheer for the "other team") Jason Bay is no ManRam but I hope he does well, being a BC boy and whatnot xD
Edit: And yeah, A's farm team sucks. Their A team is here in Vancouver and everytime I hear about them, they're getting their asses handed to them.

Gogo Yankees.
I'm so sad I missed the all star game. I read articles about it afterwards, and reading how all the hall of famers came out to stand on their old posts made me tear cause that's so aw. Also sad because it sounded like it was an awesome game, what with what, 13? innings.

It was an awesome game indeed. I watched the first 3 innings, then my Dell XPS from nexon arrived so I missed the next 5, turned on the game in the 9th to watch Rivera (the Yankees closer) finish off the 9th inning batters and the game go into extra innings and watched it to the end. It was pretty epic when Aaron Cook (Rockies pitcher) somehow got out of a bases loaded no out jam that wasnt his fault (Marlins 2nd baseman made 2 back to back errors). I thoroughly enjoyed the game though it was pretty nerve racking, cheering for the AL and watching them basically run out of pitchers.
And yes, the beginning of the game was fun to watch. I enjoyed the tribute a lot (I was afraid that the game wouldnt be on TV, being in Canada but I was immensely glad it was xD)
Edit: Yay for Bay hitting the game winning triple for the BoSox in the 12th to beat the A's!

I have this really strong feeling Bay will be spectacular for the Red Sox. And we Jays fan love the fact that we'll be seeing Bay more often. (Canadian pride anyone?) All in all it's a win win situation for everyone except Pittsburgh...but that's another post for another time.

Man I remember the year my Seattle Mariners TIED one of the OLDEST Records in Baseball with 115 wins ;-; then got swept in the first round of the Playoffs ;-; by a team that they wiped the floor with all year ;-;

Ughh, Seattle's season is absolutely brutal. I don't see them having a real shot of making it into the playoffs anytime soon. In my mind their only highpoint of the season was having Ichiro hit 3000 hits. Poor, poor Seattle fans. ;(

Im a student at UBC and my piano teacher at UBC is a diehard Yankees fan (like her door literally has a sign saying, "warning, Yankees country. Enter with caution" and she has a giant Ichiro and Hideki Matsui poster) and I got the upper hand as Boston won last year.
Im a big Ichiro fan but... yeah, they're brutal this year. Any chance they can hold two records? Most wins in a year AND most losses in a year?!
Edit: Bay hits first home run today. Go Canada go!, lololo

Jays win, Jays win! Good outing by Burnett, I'm so glad we didn't end up trading him. I honestly don't see what everyone has against him.
Mariners lose, which is honestly not surprising at all. ;P

Who's with me?! Lose Mariners Lose! Break that Mets reccord for most loses in a year cause the Tigers choked and won their last few games what 5 years ago?
On another note, looks like the Rays are gonna lose and the BoSox are gonna win. 2 back! (yay for another 2-4 night for Bay!)
Edit 2: @##^%$^&#$@ STUPID TIGERS WHY YOU CHOKE?!?! Rays win, 3 back still -.-"

Actually, the record of the most losses in a season goes to the 1889 Cleveland Spiders with a total of 134, now that's ugly. '62 Mets have the second worst amount of losses in a season with 120. So for the Mariners to beat their record they'll have to lose all their remaining 52 games. If by some miracle they end up doing that they'll have 121 losses, exactly 1 more than the Mets. ;P
Good luck Mariners!

I pulled up the baseball archive and its actually 1899 but... man, I didnt know some team could suck THAT much! 20-134? Hell, they didnt even play 162 games. I can see why that was the team's last season, lololo. Reading the Wiki page on them made me lol. Longest winning streak of 2, most road losses ever (109... that's more than total road games played these days xD), 1 win in last 41 games, 84 games away from the pennant winner, etc.
Its not fair to the Mariners. This team was robbed of all their real players cause the owner owned two teams! Annnd... after crunching some numbers, the Mariners would have to lose the rest of the games to catch the Mets >_> My dreams, dashed! Time to hope the Atlanta Falcons go 0-16 in the NFL this year (Damn the Ravens, losing to the Dolphins to make them 1-15 >_>)!

LEAVE THE MARINERS ALONE! ;-;
>_> Yes the Mariners were robbed of all their stars...
I mean jesus fucking christ..... They had
Ken Griffey Jr
Randy Johnson
A-Rod
Tino Martinez (yes in 96 for a short time he was with the mariners before going to the yankees)
Jay Buhner (He was made of awesomeness)
Jose Cruz Jr (him + griffey = pwn)
We've had some of the most awsome players pass through our team
only to get ass reamed by the MANAGEMENT not even the coaches can do anything when the management fucks them in the ass with a fucking Louisville slugger

I don't follow the NFL much but I remember when the Dolphins won their first game some of the players were crying out of joy, what a moment eh? And damn, stupid Bills are moving to Toronto, we don't need the NFL in Canada, CFL is the way to go.

Slashermills2 Wrote:*kicks you* ;-; so meanI think that Retalion was talking about 1899 Cleveland Spiders losing all their valuable players because the owner of that team had also owned the St. Louis Perfectos. The owner then decided that St. Louis would have a better fanbase than Cleveland so he traded all the stars from the Cleveland team to St. Louis in return for garbage.
LEAVE THE MARINERS ALONE! ;-;

I agree that the Mariners have lost a ton of good players in the past, but the past is the past right? Btw, I laughed at your Louisville slugger comment.
Just in case anybody cares, the Blue Jays lost. They had a 4-0 lead at one point but we managed to lose it and the game ended 8-4. I honestly can't believe this, we have the best bullpen in the league and our starting pitchers are also suppose to be the best in the league...this just doesn't add up.
