Around SBN: Jeremy Lin And How The Pac-12 Missed Him

I'm not sure how much he updates it, and it appears to only have 2 posts, but the post from April 23rd has some great insight to what it's like to travel with the AAA team... AND it has a fantastic title: "30 is the new 20."

It'd be cool if he did update it, but it doesn't look like its active

But after reading that blog about their schedules wow

On a related note to Dempster hitting Braun,

ESPN just said something quickly on SportsCenter that Dempster is going to be suspended. They mentioned it briefly and I might have misheard it but I’m pretty sure that’s what they said. I couldn’t find a link to anything about it but that would really stupid if this is the case. I’m sure after an appeal they would take away any suspension, especially since he didn’t seem to do it on purpose (or even hit him for crying out loud).

how are the two related?

what does that have to do with Scales having a blog.

Nothing.

And I haven’t heard anything about it either.

maybe Scales plans to report it in the blog?

baseball is a game of outs......pop out, ground out, line out, pitch out, strike out, fly out, and Fox and Bud's favorite black out

Seriously?

He didn’t even hit him! That’s complete BS if true.

Plus

The only reason Braun didn’t get even further out of the way is he was leaning in faking a bunt. In his regular stance, he just leans back and that pitch goes right by.

No, no, no.

This is inaccurate rumor-mongering – not to mention a total non sequitur. Right now, Macha is calling for a review of the play. I doubt anything will come of it.

I've committed to tweeting about the Cubs for the rest of the season. (Does that sound as ridiculous as I think it does?) Anyway, if you're on Twitter, you can follow me here.
