Holy smokes! Mike Hampton is starting today for the Braves.
Hasn't pitched in the bigs since 2005. Before I got married.
He's earned something like 30 million dollars since his last pitch.

Hope he does well.
Go Gators!
It looks like he could get a win if he can get through 5 innings without blowing the 6 run lead his team just gave him.
WOW. 9 Runs, 6 Earned off Cole Hamels in 3 and 2 thirds before they took him out.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
The over/under for Hampton getting hurt is apparently 4 hours.
Hampton and the Braves blew a 6 run lead and are losing 10-9.
4 Innings, 8 Hits, 6 Runs, 2 BB, 1 K
Aren't the Rockies still paying him to NOT pitch for the Braves? That has to be the all time worst contract ever.
In 2009, he'll be an Astro, pending a physical.

Hampton should pitch for the Rockies and Braves, and pay them to do it. What a joke.
Too bad. This is a free agent I hoped Walt would talk to seriously. I made that argument here some weeks ago but was told he was a certainty to re-sign with Atlanta.
Here in Houston, there saying it's pretty much a done deal that Hampton's signed with the Astros...just pending a physical. And it looks like they've given up any ideas of re-signing Wolf.
~edit~ hehe...didn't see 'unassisted''s first post of yesterday. Nevermind.
