I don't need to say anything about this. This was not photoshopped.

If I might add, this isn't even in the top 5 most embarrassing things about our season. :(

I became a Rays fan because of Scott Kazmir.

That just gave every Mets fan on the board a headache.

There must be something about Kazmir that makes teams trade him for a sack of socks. This is the second time.

Posada should forget the count more often. Sheesh. BB and HR when he forgot the count tonight. :eek:

LOL. On a side note, I always thought it was Kazoo.

Anyway, in reference to Vin Scully, did you know that the character of Dana Scully from X Files was named after him? I just found that out last night.

Btw AMC, the PTBNL in the Kazmir is a doozy, it's Sean Rodriguez.

At AAA Rodriguez is hitting to the tune of a .299/.398/.616 line.

He plays second base.
 
Re: 2009 MLB Thread, Part II: Claimed Off The Waiver Wire

See, that's pretty solid for Tampa especially since Kazmir's arm will fall off soon.
 
Re: 2009 MLB Thread, Part II: Claimed Off The Waiver Wire

Fortunately, for the Rays, with Garza around, there's plenty of frustration left in store for me!

Still, giving up on a Wild Card when you're only 3-4 games back makes zero sense.

Is that helmet the new Rawlings one that is good up to like 100mph or some junk like that? The one that Frenchy flat-out said he will never wear due to it making people look like a clown?

Yup. Wright had said he would wear it if it arrived in Colorado by gametime the other day.

Hey, at least they made it that far.

The Cubs gave up on the Wild Card in June.

MIAMI—In a sudden end to a trying year, the Mets' Jeff Francoeur lined into a rare centuple play against the Florida Marlins Wednesday, which by rule cut New York's season short. "I hit it on the screws, but it just happened to be in a spot where they could turn a hundred," said Francoeur, who watched helplessly as Marlins second baseman Dan Uggla tagged everyone in the Mets dugout before heading into the clubhouse and tagging both equipment manager Charlie Samuels and physical therapist John Zajac. "You take a risk by starting the runners but I didn't think he'd have enough time to run up to the executive suite and get [Mets GM] Omar [Minaya] and [team owner] Fred [Wilpon]. I guess by the 80th out we'd all just given up." This was the most outs recorded on a single play since the 2004 Montreal Expos were eradicated from the league after hitting into an ∞-play.

How has a Yankee never had more than 2721 hits? I find that unbelievable.
