“And manager Ozzie Guillen had an amusing explanation for his ejection in the bottom of the sixth inning after Cleveland’s Jhonny Peralta took a called strike to start the bottom of the sixth.

“I was protecting Peralta,” Guillen quipped. “I asked Peralta if that pitch was low and in, and he said, ‘yes.’ They thought I was crazy because I wasn’t protecting J.D. I was protecting the opposition. That means I was going to send a message that I wasn’t here to protect my players. I was here to protect baseball”

How awesome is Ozzie Guillen?

The Rangers were actually in the lead of the West as late as the end of May in 2005. They ended finishing 7 or 8 games below .500 by the end of the season.

The Indians almost blew a 9-0 lead yesterday and yes, in fact, blew a 7-0 lead today. We have no answers left in the minors. We have to keep running guys out there and hope they rebound.

I want to say its the worst bullpen in the history of the sport, but the Yankees pen is somehow worse this year.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #252 on:** May 16, 2009, 03:09:22 AM »

How many games has your bullpen lost by walking in runs?

don't look now, but the Braves are actually a game above .500!

Yes, pretty awesome news.

The Indians have some guys down there (Rondon, De La Cruz and the kid who threw the perfect game Gomez) that look pretty promising. All Venezuelans, I believe.

With Victor Martinez and Asdrubal Cabrera (also Venezuelan) tearing it up, I am proposing that the Indians sign an exclusivity contract with the country for all their baseball talent. I'm sure their dictator would oblige.

No offense, but it was some miracle that all those guys in your bullpen performed the way they did in 08. At some point, reality was going to set in.

Looks like Sox fans have repopulated that thread. Y2Kev is too soft and solrac is in perpetual shell shock from 04 and still pining for Torre's cock. The rest of the Yankee fans on GAF are either 1) too hung up on 'aura and mystique' or 2) don't post frequently enough to be a deterrant from the mental distinguished mentally-challenged of Sox fans. NOOOOOOOOOoooo

Really cool article on Ichiro at ESPN:

Quote from: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4329684

Ichiro visits Sisler's grave

During an All-Star Weekend when history is made and honored, Ichiro Suzuki paid respects to a man whose achievements are linked with his own.

Ichiro, in St. Louis for his ninth All-Star Game, visited the grave of St. Louis Browns star George Sisler, whose single-season record of 257 hits was broken by the Mariners outfielder in October 2004.

Sisler's descendants -- including Sisler's 81-year-old daughter, Frances Sisler Drochelman -- had traveled to Seattle to witness Ichiro break the record that was set in 1920, and last weekend, Ichiro returned the gesture.

"I wanted to do that for a grand upperclassman of the baseball world," Ichiro told MLB.com. "I think it's only natural for someone to want to do that, to express my feelings in that way."

Ichiro, accompanied by his wife, Yumiko, and some friends, laid flowers at Sisler's grave, at Des Peres Presbyterian Church Cemetery. Sisler, a Hall of Famer, died on March 26, 1973. His career was marked by a lifetime .340 batting average, and a .407 average in 1920. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1939.

"There's not many chances to come to St. Louis," Ichiro said, according to the Seattle Times. "In 2004, it was the first time I crossed paths with him, and his family generously came all the way to Seattle."

Another All-Star Game might be old hat to Ichiro, who was the MVP of the 2007 game and has won a Gold Glove in each season since entering the major leagues out of Japan in 2001.

But this time, Ichiro got to meet President Barack Obama, who threw out the first pitch. Obama, visiting the clubhouses, stopped and signed a ball for Ichiro, who gave a slight bow upon meeting the President and appeared as giddy and excited as a kid.

"My idea, when I saw him, was to say, 'What's up?' to him," Ichiro said. "But I got nervous. You know, he has that kind of aura about him. So I got nervous and I didn't say that to him. I was a little disappointed about that.

"But I realized after seeing him today that presidents wear jeans, too. So my hope is that our skipper, [Don] Wakamatsu, was watching that and we can wear jeans on our flights, as well."
