The Boston Red Sox are Red Hot as they close in on their 16th win in their last 18 games. The have 21 wins in their last 29 games with an overall team ERA of .304! Leading the way is David Ortiz who is hitting .356 with 9 homers in the last 30 days. Boston is currently 44-28 putting atop the AL East, making the miserable start to the season sure seem like a thing of the past.
Albert Pujols was injured in the Cardinals game against the Kansas City Royals on Sunday. Pujols is expected to miss 4 to 6 weeks with a fractured forearm. It happened as runner was running to first base and Pujols' arm crossed his path, throwing his wrist unnaturally backward. John Mozeliak, Sr. Vice-President and General Manager for the St. Louis Cardinals, seems to think this is an unforunate incident and acknowleged "that you can't replace a player of his magnitude."Or can you?? Does the name Lance Berkman ring a bell? A 5-million dollar option that just happens to be a first-baseman with 5-time MVP Candidacy in the past ten years… The question isn't 'Are the Cards in trouble?' but instead, 'Will Pujols really be back in 4 to 6 weeks??'
It was an unfortunate afternoon in Omaha for Texas fans on Monday. The Longhorns suffered a slow shut-out to be eliminated from the College World Series. Only games away from the championship, the North Carolina Tar Heels won the elimination game, led by 19 year-old Emanuel to a 3-0 victory. The Tar Heels await the winner of the Florida vs. Vanderbilt game, postponed due to rain, while the Longhorns are the first to head home.
I really liked this...
