    Baseball Tonight

    The host just said the Reds are trying to go 5 games above .500 for the first time in five years. That definitely is not true. Tino Martinez is very bad also, he sounds like he is on an infomercial.

    Sounds like he was mocking how bad we are, kind of like the Sportscenter anchor said Milton gave up '900' homeruns last year.

    Just said Burnett has a date with James Andrews. Thats $55M investment isn't looking so good at the moment.

    Watching Oral and Tino is like watching CSPAN-2 at 2am....it's horrible. Are the "regulars" on vacation?

    I kind of like Orel, but Tino is just awful. He's like a monotone car-salesman

    Realy, if he has to go under the knife again, I'd say he's finished. But the Jays will likely be off the hook for mostof it with insurance.

    I normally don't care about spelling, but guys it's Orel, not Oral. I feel funny reading the word "oral"as a name.

    I wasn't sure

    Ill have to place the blame on George unless he was using Oral as sarcasm, and then that should earn some rep points.

    SportsCenter guy thinks Arroyo has a mullet, no mention of the pitching performance.

    Figures.

    And they obviously don't know anything about mullets either. Bronson's hair is all one length; he just tucks it behind his ears.

    Wouldn't it be nice to get some serious reporting out of ESPN, instead of all the cutesy crap? Something they've apparently forgotten how to do.

    I actually work at the Worldwide leader, and the reason the other analysts are on tonight is because it's a semi-weekend show. Almost every Saturday night BBTN is the same way, with Tim Kirkjian and Jeff Brantley or Orestes Destrade. You rarely see HR or Krukker on these shows; they come back for the Sunday afternoon and evening BBTN, hosted sometimes by the frighteningly sweaty Chris Berman but usually with Karl Ravech.

    It's all about the ratings...that's it.
