Rockies Clinch Series Win, Take Fourth Straight: Rockies 7, Cardinals 2
In my preview of this game, I set for the Rockies the goal of winning this game (making it a season-long four game winning streak), clinching the series, and providing delicious cheap tacos for Colora...
Staturday: Its not ranting if the facts back me up.
I am not a patient muppet. Nor am I renowned for my optimism. So the last time I wrote something that wasn’t, at best, a summary of the work of others I took a small leap of faith to include R...
Worth Every Penny: Mets 2, Marlins 0
Can't write. No words. Johan, awesome. Thanks, Cubs. No offense? No biggie. Ramon Martinez! No bullpen. Equals victory. Shea good-bye? Not yet. Tomorrow, then? !@#$ that. Big...

Brewers? Blown out. Phillies? Smacked down in Miami. Mets? Opened a can of whoop-tooshie in Atlanta. Things looked pretty bleak a few days ago, and things could certainly look bleak again a few da...
Could've Been Worse: Mets 7, Nationals 2
Johan Santana continued his brilliant season with seven innings of one-run ball, which meant the bullpen only had to hang on for six outs. It still took them three pitchers to do so, but it's anot...
