True, but some no hitters are more impressive than others.

Verlander just tossed a no-hitter, taking a perfect game into the 8th inning before walking a guy.

Tulowitzki and Carlos Gonzalez are FINALLY starting to hit, and Todd Helton is hitting .321. Plus Ty Wigginton is producing at third.

Translation: the rest of the NL should be very, very afraid.

Beckett's still pitching great, Buchholz is turning it around, and A-gon is on fire. John Lackey has totally regressed though, which is concerning, but apparently his wife has breast cancer, and from the way he answered a question the other day, it sounds like things may not be going well for her. I'm not sure if that's totally the cause of his poor pitching, but I can't imagine it would help anyone to have that going on in their lives.

Apparently the Yanks are imploding thanks to Posada

The Yankees are struggling for reasons more complex than just Posada's struggles.

After beating Cleveland today, the Sox are a half game out of first in the East and are now playing much better overall. Lackey is close to coming back, not sure if I'm too thrilled about that. Dice-K may be out a while with an elbow injury.

Speaking of elbow injuries, I see that De La Rosa on the Rockies tore ligaments in his elbow and will miss about a year. Tough break for him and Colorado.

Dice-K needs Tommy John surgery, and may have pitched his last game for the Red Sox. No big loss. I'm more upset that Rich Hill, one of our best bullpen arms, also needs season ending surgery, from the sound of it TJ surgery as well.

I went to the Phillies-Pirates game today, and saw Roy Halladay pitch. He was one of those guys who I have always wanted to see pitch in person, since he is undeniably one of the best in the game today and probably a future hall of famer. Wasn't really exited about seeing the Pirates play, but w/e.

And since I forgot to bring sunsceen, the sun murdered me. I am like bright red and hurting in every place my skin was exposed.

What the fuck is up with Papelbon? He's been subpar this season it seems.

Fuck, he gave up a 4 run lead in the ninth.

The Rockies, while winning their current game, need to fire the living shit out of their manager. Jim Tracy is fucking dumb and I hate him.

Going to see the Red Sox play the Pirates this Friday night. Going to be weird seeing the Sox play in an away game.

Seems like he was a good change of pace manager, but he's really not doing a Intense anal trauma job in the full time role. The Rockies are a better team than their record.

No, he wasn't even a good change of pace manager. I think the team started winning because Hurdle was fired, not because Tracy was brought in.

Tracy has been thoroughly unimpressive in every manager role he's ever head. Some of those LA Dodgers teams he managed had no business getting bounced in the NLDS.

The red Sox seem to score more than ten runs every other game these days, so it is safe to say this team's offense is pretty decent.

Went to the Sox game tonight, and they lost, which sucked. It was pretty different seeing them play an away game, when the crowd at large and all the stadium shenanigans are rooting against them. Seeing Lester hit was pretty different; I'd never see that at Fenway.

So the Rockies won in 13 innings.

Tulo scored from first on a bloop single.

Was awesome.
