Torn thumb ligament for Trout--out 5-8 weeks. Might as well rule Judge the MVP and ROY right now..

 

Even if Trout misses 5 weeks he should still win MVP in a landslide.

[Inklink]

Strickland you piece of s***.

[Orgfiller]

The Astros scored eleven runs in the eighth inning, and fifteen overall. I'm jealous.

 

Heh, funny reading this comment after the fact. Take that, Astros!

I can't believe he's never been on the DL before

In a semi-related story Brett Lawrie landed a gig as well.

The Pringles Ketchup Slippery Slide event will be hosted by self-proclaimed Ketchup Chip keener, enthusiastic slider and former Toronto Blue Jays star, Brett Lawrie. "Ketchup Chips are seriously one of my all-time favourite chip flavours," says Lawrie. "Playing in the show means spending a lot of time outside of the true north strong and free, and they're one of the things that I miss most. I'm amped up to see Ketchup Chip fans on the Pringles Ketchup Slippery Slide and be part of such a flavourful celebration of Canada's 150th birthday. It's slide time!"

[Brownie19]

seriously

[vdartanian]

seriously

 

Actually gotta hand it to Lawrie, not many guys whose major leagues careers are hanging on by a thread, are willing to say "f*** it I think I'm going to party it up this summer"

 

Kind of feel sorry for Pringles actually!

No f***s given from Lawrie pretty much

10 points to whoever photoshops that picture with the two 40's and makes them into Pringles cans.

Pujols just hit a three run bomb for #599 on the career. Only the third inning at the moment so he'll have a chance to hit the milestone tonight.

Why is your profile picture sideways? It's really bothering me

[TwistedLogic]

All nine Angels have scored a run in the 3rd inning. Has that ever happened before?

Just seemed to work better that way. If Albert hits #600 tonight I'll change it.

And if he doesn't tonight, we learn to live with it for the foreseeable future?

[P2F]

Austin Hedges legit walks up to Careless Whisper. That is awesome.

I'm already starting to get bored of it

Reddick has been using it for a while.

Okay, this is crazy.

That's pretty cool, but slightly less impressive when you take a look at the attendance and where the balls all landed. There's no one near the left field bleachers where most homers land.

[TholesWeirdEye]

Rickey Ro playing with Jo-Jo Reyes. Seems about right.

[Bobthe4th]

BIG dust up in SF after Strickland drilled Bryce Harper square on the hip. Harper charged the mound, threw his helmet and then a couple punches (poorly done as typical of baseball players).

 

 

Strickland = 6 games, Harper = 4.

[Pendleton]

^ Harper appealed and had it reduced to 3 games.

[vdubmvp]

Okay, this is crazy.

That second guy looks like he could be kind of cute, but I'm not sure...

[Captain Adama]

He's an Oriole fan. Automatic zero.

 

Geez, your taste in men.

The Blue Jays now have the 13th best record in the league. Problem is, 4 teams above them are in the AL East
