The internet could use one of those. They could build it right into the browser. And I'm not complaining about .gifs with Kaley Cuoco in them if you know what I mean...at least when she's not trying to look like Miley Cyrus.

lol ya. That seems to be main thing people brought up about this past season. Most people hate it,but there's also big group of people annoyed by people bringing up the whole "long hair was better" comments.

The Astros won the series tonight. Tomorrow I'm cheering for the Dodgers, though. I mean, I might not see Kershaw pitch in person again.

Also, Craig Biggio Day was incredible. I never truly understood what he means to this city until today.

Sorry to hear you're rooting for the Dodgers tomorrow, but yeah - the Biggio stuff was cool.

Anyways, RE: Trout v. Donaldson it's still a toss up but if you look at Trout's numbers since Aug. 1st he's fallen off a cliff whereas Donaldson has heated up. The one saving grace for Trout is that he built himself so much of a cushion prior to that date and he has the name recognition that it may just allow him to win the award. As others have said there's still SIX WEEKS of baseball left but Donaldson is making it a legitimately tough choice.

Andy Pettitte having his number retired by Yankees.

First player who admitted to taking PEDs who'll have his number retired.

Yankees in general full of *. More than any other team in baseball I think? Pettitte, ARod,Clemens,Giambi,Knoblauch ect

Re: 8/17 - 8/30 Game Discussion Thread

Are the Yankees going to have any numbers left? Jeez.

And once Jeters is retired, they won't have any more single digits lol. Unless someone decides to go with #0 if that's even allowed.

Who cares about R.B.I.?.....as if it's important to actually drive in the guys on base.
It's much better to be projected to lead the MLB in the oGPS+NSA/factor so we know how much better the player is than the vendor serving hot dogs would be if he's on the field instead.

Situational hitting absolutely should be considered in MVP voting; RBIs is just a terrible way of measuring it.

Donaldson has been Trout's equal, so if people want to make a case for him, go ahead. There are much better ways to make a case for him than a useless 19th century stat.
