And just to be clear, I agree he has potential. But he's just not someone who can help them win now, and the way you improve a team so they can win now is to trade potential for performance. I expect we'll be seeing him win games against the Dodgers in the future, no doubt, but strategically I can't argue with the move.

We are now in the portion of the season where the A's collectively decide to tease the fans. It'll be fun while it lasts.

That would have been an inside-the-park had he not strolled to first admiring it.

As if being 26 games under .500 wasn't bad enough, now the Rockies don't even know when they can leave the field! Apparently ALL NINE Rockie players did not realize that they had just recorded the third out.

Congratulations to Kendrys Morales of the Angels who became only the third person in history to hit home runs from both the left and right sides of the plate on the same inning.

Well damn. Guess who has the best record on all of MLB?

Steven Strasburg is getting close to his inning limit for the season so he'll be benched soon, but it still looks like a post season run is not a complete flight of fantasy.

I have seats for the Nats vs Dodgers series in Sept. It should be a good game.

Looks like we just picked up Victorino. Wow.

Nice. Now just a starter left to go (all signs point to Dempster) and things will be in place.

Then I suppose you had issue with the contributions of Cody Ross to the 2010 world series champs?
