You have the full support of the front office.

Congrats Brewers.
You just got C.C. Sabathia.

The future is now, Mofos.

Well, B.Sheets only has about 6-7 starts left in him for this year, so it's perfect timing.

You forgot those magical words:

Contract year.

I love Ben Sheets, but he's a rotator cuff explosion waiting to happen. Let the Dodgers make him their $80 million problem this offseason.

Assuming that the Brewers lose both Sheets and Sabathia to free agency this offseason, they'll get something like four hundred compensatory first round draft picks.

Speaking of injured Brewers pitchers, I wouldn't shed any tears if someone blew out Reed Johnson's ACL on a bullshit "hustle" play. For the time being, though, I'll take seeing Soriano break his hand.

How does Jermaine Dye get left off the all star squad?

.308 BA, 19 HR, 52 RBI, .919 OPS

Starting RF Ichiro Suzuki's numbers for comparison:

.302 BA, 3 HR, 21 RBI, .733 OPS

Well, actually Ichiro was voted in by the public, which includes international (Japanese) votes.

Grazy Sidemore - already with a 20/20 season at the halfway point - was 10th.

Grady's Ladies have failed him.

Is Joe Crede really popular in Japan?
