Yeah, panic and trade the farm for a fat pitcher, who we then have to pay $150 million. Makes sense, not.

No pitcher is worth that kind of money, they play once every five days and are a huge risk. Pun intended.

Paging C.C. Sabathia…

A sweep, with games 2 and 3 almost a month apart? No, no way. The games have to be consectutive for it to be a sweep, IMHO. Then again, you can call the last series a 2-game sweep, and I would be fine with that.

Swept by a team that got handed by the Mariners is not good.

I would think it qualifies as a home sweep.

Serious question, not meant to antagonize anyone – does this count as a home sweep, when the make-up game takes place weeks after the first two games?

I don’t know if it should – a true sweep happens successively.

Delgado, of all people, hits a slam.

MK – it can’t be 93 – because, then that means the guy throwing 95 is really throwing 97…and Pelfrey was not throwing 97 – - on a two-seamer.

So, 91 is less than 95 – - even if 95 might be somewhere between 97 or 94, in reality.

Which means 91 might be somewhere between 93 or 90, in reality. And, really, it’s not about how fast you throw but if you can miss bats.

MJ – You’re missing the point.

If I get on one scale and it says I weigh 165 and another scale that says 162, I don’t know what I weigh.

But, if I get on the one that says 162, and you get on the same scale and it says 185 for you – I know, for a fact, that I weigh less than you…even if I don’t know if I weigh 162 or 165.

So, 91 is less than 95 – - even if 95 might be somewhere between 97 or 94, in reality.
