    I'm not sure because I like them both.

      I’m so ****ing sick and tired of Vizcaino. His effectively wild bull**** isn’t a secret anymore. The sooner we unload him the better off we will be.

        I have watched the Camargo play from every angle that is on MLB.com and I can't come up with anyway he should have been called out. It's ludicrous at this point:

          It's just another way for the league to get get the odds tilted in the direction they want them. That's easier to believe than that it is used to get the correct calls.

            Well, let's not pretend we haven't benefited from calls before:



            That said...this one was reviewed. It should have been overturned easily...that's what frustrates me.

              I'm not saying calls haven't gone in our favor. I am just saying at this point anyone who has paid attention can clearly see New York has done all they can to screw this team over week after week. After today you wonder if it is just a coincidence.

                Well, I guess the bright side is I'm glad to be back at a point where I'm pissed at losing a game like this because it actually matters. It's been 4 years since we've actually needed a closer...so it's nice that it's a problem now I guess.

                      lol, anyone hear Joey Vottos comments about Canadian Baseball? Now that's an old school wrestling heel turn. Sgt.Slaughter level of turning on his country.

                        Tis better to call someone safe than out.

                        Better ball than strike.

                        Better fair than foul.

                        Honestly, my least favorite thing about replay is that we get to phone call somebody from the dugout before making our decision.

                          These games with the Cubs have had playoff atmospheres. Imagine those screwups in an actual playoff game. The MLB would be the laughing stock of the sports world. Replay has to go or get fixed. It's a major black eye on the sport right now.

                            I saw the umpire's explanation for the Camargo play was that they couldn't conclusively see if he ever touched the plate. Hmmm...okay, then.

                                Gotta say from watching the highlights and some extended play (was watching some MLB-N last night) of the Braves/Cubs series and man, if both teams make the playoffs and face each other that would be some great TV. I'll be watching the Braves game on Thursday rather than the travesty that is my Blue Jays. Hopefully MLB-N selects the Braves feed for that one.
