This happened just two days ago: attackgerbil let his chickens out of The Egg Majal to run around the yard and eat bugs and poop on his patio as chickens are wont to do. I came out to re-incarcerate them in their chicken palace when I saw a Blue Jay fly into the coop, hop on a ledge, and dive straight for the egg box. Dirty nasty thieves they are, stealing precious eggs. Chased it out of there, we did, nasty Jay squawking whole time about wes doesn’t understand the power of the incredible edible egg.
The game is already underway, with Phelps on the mound to face those sneaky Jays while Brandon Morrow is on the mound for Toronto. Comment away.

Twins stuck it to the Sox at Fenway earlier this month. Please to see Buchholz hold them down (unlike last time, the first outing after the “doctoring the ball” accusations) and the offense unload…please?
Worley, with a season ERA of over 7, throws for the Twins. He had a relatively serviceable 5 IP, 3 ER outing against the Sox on May 6th. Hoping it’s worse for him today.

Buehrle has already begun what is to be expected (he had a great outing against the Sox recently but didn’t get the win). 1-0 Yanks in the 1st with 1 out and a runner at 2nd. The reliably excellent Kuroda hurls for the Yankees.

Pineda, Michael – Right anterior labral tear (wait, did you say ANTERIOR? AS IN REAR OR IN THE BACK?)
Cervelli, Francisco – broken hand (bad backstop, but when he went out he was hitting better than Russell Martin)
Nunez, Eduardo – ribs (bad back)
Pettitte, Andy – Tight left trapezius muscle in upper back (bad back)
Hafner, Travis – shoulder (bad back)
Jeter, Derek – cankles
Chamberlain, Joba – oblique (oblique means no right angle whatever way you look at it)
Nova, Ivan – upper back soreness (bad back)
Rodriguez, Alex – Hip surgery (no not that one, they already fixed that one.. ) okay, right hip surgery (bad back pocket contract. Don’t carry your fat-ass wallet in your back pocket when you sit)
Stewart, Chris – (groined, but only leftly, not rightly)
Teixeira, Mark – bad wrist (he’s ambidextrous and rich so don’t cry for him, it’s called a stranger)
Youkilis, Kevin – bad back.. really, this time. Lumbar. Those suck. Hurts, and it lingers so, all the way down in your scrotocracy.
Cabral, Cesar – Broken left elbow (for LHP this might be a concern)

Yesterday’s victory came courtesy of an 8-run inning off injured David Price and ineffective Jamey Wright (and Lester throwing 7 innings of 2-run ball). Offense can’t rely on that today, going to have to be better to get a meager win streak going against potential-filled Alex Cobb. Young starter is in his third season and recently struck out 13 Padres…in 4.2 innings…
Unfortunately, the Sox send Felix “lost 3 MPH on my fastball” Doubront to the mound. He was savagely battered in his impromptu long man start against Minnesota when Webster utterly failed as well. Let’s hope for a resurgence. Got comment?
