Lannan got hammered tonight. The Reds hit rocket after rocket off him.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Another sweep, now to head to the east coast to beat the Rays and Red Sox.

I've been slacking with the Insider articles and ****, I'll start getting back to them next week

Jeter out until July?

Maybe it's time to hang them up after this season, Captain.

 

[jdcurt2]

Cingrani/Fernandez should be a good one tonight.

 

[do work son]

im gonna have reds/marlins braves/pirates white sox/blue jays and rays/orioles going at the same time

 

[madj55]

I'll be attending the duel between Stephen Strasburg and Matt Harvey tomorrow night I'm hyped.

 

[jdcurt2]

Fernandez is struggling bad the second and third time through the lineup. The Reds are just sitting on his fastball.

Travis d'Arnaud, the highly regarded catching prospect obtained from the Blue Jays in the December trade for R.A. Dickey, suffered a broken left foot while playing for Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday night, according to an ESPN.com report

I checked the forecast showers are supposed to start at 9, should be a quick game with the two guys who are throwing.

Very sad to see.

If you didn't see the honoray tribute by the Mississippi State Baseball for the Red Sox

It's easy to say such gestures don't make a tangible difference, and they don't if you're confining the discussion to things you can see, touch, measure. But in this era of interconnectedness, when images and sentiments can make their way from one point on the earth to another far-flung point in less than an instant, these kinds of things matter on a human level, at least a little. So good for Mississippi State and all the others who have undertaken these small symbols of solidarity and uplift. -- http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/blog/eye-on-baseball/22105570

Mets crowd chanting "Harvey's better"

 

[d3si]

IKE! DUDA! @ "Harvey's better" chants

 

[jdcurt2]

Man, I've never seen Votto this lost at the plate.

 

[mez 0ne]

Harvey getting out of that bases loaded, 0 outs jam in the 7th was his best inning yet.

2nd time this season he's stranded a runner on 3rd with no outs.

Crowd was electric.

Man, those "Harvey's Better" chants really stung especially after the two tank shots Stras gave up

Drew Storen, go **** yourself.

madj55- You were at the game, right?

Was there any cheering or announcement in the stadium that they caught the marathon bomber?

Yeah they announced it on the scoreboard and then a nice "USA" chant broke out and then they played Sweet Caroline in the stadium. For a crowd of 26k there was a decent amount of noise being made.

Going to the stros Indians game tonight . Nothing like sitting 10 rows up from the dugout got $5

 

[wildkycat]

Votto's not too lost, walking at a record pace with a .500 OBP.

he's the last guy I'm concerned about. BP has to continue to hit behind him, tho... that's what I'm more worried about.
