    Jessica Alba is only kinda pretty.

    Homer Bailey is a good young pitcher though.

    Just saying.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    6.21 H/9
    2.41 BB/9
    10.0 K/9

    That's the kind of stats that future ace's put up. Keep it up, Homer.
    Assuming he continues to replicate these stats, or if his ERA dips lower (maybe to 2.75-range) and his peripherals remain the same -- does he stay in Sarasota to domiante for the full season, or does he move to Chattanooga mid-season?

    I say leave him in Sarasota and give him a full season to build confidence. The stuff this kid has is tempting to push, but he's just too valuable to risk blowing out this early.

    Brock Till fires another 1-2-3 8th inning! The no-hitter is still intact as the game heads to the 9th inning.

    Somewhere a Cubs Announcer is cursing Lakeland. Do the same 2 teams play tomorrow? Wonder if Mejia gets plunked next time he comes to the plate against the Sar. Reds

    Why?

    Isn't a batters job in a 2-0 game to get on base so that the tying runner comes to the plate? And isn't a bunt single a fantastic way to get said tying runner to the plate? These guys are trying to win - if this was a 5-0 game I'd see your point, but in a close game like this you gotta get on base to give your team a chance anyway you can.
