Whore

Thank you. I deserved that. I will root for the Rays tonight even though they are the team my team is chasing in the division. It just feels less dirty.

And, to anyone who either doesn't have a team or whose team is already eliminated, I highly recommend you jump on the Tampa Bay bandwaggon. It is by far the best story of the year what's going on down there.

	The Stros keep on winning! Little too late assholes but it sure makes the end of the season better. Here's hoping the brewcrew takes a massive dive.......

	Sox vs. Tampa Bay starting tonight in a battle for AL East supremacy. TB leads Bos by 1.5 games. 3 game set at Fenway where the Rays have never won a series. By the way the Yankees are in 4th place.

	Meh. Phils win two, drop the last. I'm not too concerned yet. We have until the end of the month for the Mets to slide.

	Yanks need to fall into the bottom 15 record-wise so that when they sign Sabathia, they don't have to give up a first-round pick.

	Went to Cincy for the game on Saturday night, and got to see Soriano hit three dingers. What a night... There were many more fans in Cubs blue than Reds supporters. It was disgusting.
	Drew So much for my brilliance.

	Lester. Lights out. That is all. Dice-K vs. Kazmir should be a great matchup. How many times can Dice-K load the bases and get out of it? Watch and see. At least the bullpen is rested since Lester went 8 last night.

These Rays just don't go away. I can't help liking them, even though they are our new rival in the AL East.

By Bob Ryan in today's Globe on Dan Johnson, who hit the game winner off Paps:

This stuff only happens in the movies, right? A guy who has one spring at-bat before being waived spends the rest of the season in the minors in his new organization and is sleeping in Scranton, Pa., the morning after the first game of the Triple A Governor's Cup finals when the phone rings and the voice at the other end is telling him he's been called up and will be heading to Boston for a game that very evening.

Said guy has severe weather problems before making his way to the ballpark five minutes after the manager has decided to scratch him from the lineup. Maybe 3 1/2 hours later, he steps in against a premier closer and puts one over the Red Sox bullpen to tie a game his team will eventually win, 5-4.

"I'd like to thank US Airways for getting Dan Johnson here," said Rays manager Joe Maddon.

	It would have been more interesting if the Sox won. Now the Rays have won a series at Fenway so if we face them in the AL Championship we don't have that going for us anymore. But, eh, I still like our chances.

	Why oh why can the Phils be anything BUT consistent? So frustrating.
