Poor repressed Christians.  How do they make it thru life being the bearer of such burdens?

Everyone has their cross to bear.

the Cubs went on a tear for a couple weeks and everyone assumed they were back and would run away with it but the nl central is nuts right now

[PhillyPhreak54]

Both Central divisions are going to be fun to watch

STL can't be killed. They've piecemealed together a lineup and bullpen and got hot.

Milwaukee has been slumping but still in it. Nelson got lit tonight and they about to dump six in a row.

Pittsburgh still has a shot.

I'm rooting for the Twinkies in the ALC. Cleveland has been inconsistent with the bats. And the  Twins shouldn't be where they are when you look at that roster but come on Minny

Mike Stanton hit an absolute screamer for his 40th last night.  The 78 people in attendance were thrilled.

[Sgt PSN]

Probably not news at this point as I'm sure everyone had heard, but Jeets is buying the Marlins. 

[Rome]

He's putting up $25M of his own money out of a total of $1.2B.  That's still a lot of money to sacrifice, but in the grand slam scheme of things, it's little more than a bag of used balls. 

It is the start of a new ERA in Miami, though.

[Geowhizzer]

If it gets Jeffery Loria out of baseball for good, I'm all for it.
