- Are The Twins Dirty?-The notion that the Twins have less talent than other teams in the Majors is ridiculous. They have the reigning AL MVP, AL batting champion, and the AL Cy Young on their roster. They also have a Gold Glove centerfielder, and an untouchable closer. Talent is something the Twins have plenty of. But why is it we consider the Twins to be scrappy competitors while at the same time we think of other teams as dirty? They all do the same things.
- Jim Leyland Has A Broken Heart-Well, it appears that the only black organs inside of Jim Leyland are his lungs, not his heart. For his heart is red, and it's bleeding. After finding out that former Tigers reliever Jamie Walker named his newborn son Jim Leyland, and it wasn't after his old manager, The Black Lung wasn't shy about hiding his feelings.
- On Deck: Mike Lowell Is A Killing Machine-How many more injuries will the Yankees suffer today at the hands of Mike Lowell? Lowell knocked Doug Mientkiewicz out after colliding with him at first base yesterday. Mientkiewicz suffered a concussion, cervical sprain, and a broken bone in his wrist and has been placed on the disabled list. He wasn't Lowell's only victim, as Robinson Cano received a Lowell shoulder to his midsection while he tried to break up a double play in the fourth inning. The Yankees also found out they lost Roger Clemens for another two weeks as his groin is fatigued. I'm not sure what that has to do with baseball, Rog. Just take some damn Cialis and get out there. Also, if you're a big fan of this rivalry, you'll definetely want to watch tonight as these two teams won't meet again until the end of August.
- You Will Not Control The Sheff's Mind-Anybody who's ever followed the career of Gary Sheffield knows that the man says some pretty interesting things. I mean, you need not look past last week when he blamed a conspiracy theory for his suspension. It wasn't that he threw a bat at an umpire, it's that the man is trying to get him. Well, Sheffield recently did an interview for the June issue of GQ Magazine, and as usual he had some odd things to say. None of them stood out as much as his reasoning why there are so few black players in baseball these days.
- Milton Bradley Should Move Into A Plastic Bubble-All right, so I've spent entirely too much time around here writing about the Oakland Athletics and their injuries. I know this. Trust me, I want to write about something else, but the Athletics just will not play along. They're stubborn like that. They insist on hurting themselves over and over and over again.
- Joe Saunders Gets No Respect-Joe Saunders made a start for the Angels on Saturday to cover for the hurting Bartolo Colon. He lasted six innings, and allowed only two runs while picking up a win for Anaheim. The Angels appreciated Saunders' performance so much that they sent him right back down to the minors afterwards to make room for Garrett Anderson.
