This team treats me like a yo-yo and I keep coming back for more. This week’s version will likely be short, as I missed lots of action while globe-trotting for work. At any rate, here goes this week’s Spitballs: If you are religious in any way, believe in anything at all, pray or meditate or […]

Fresh off of a two-inning, one hit, no runs performance yesterday afternoon, Jason Isringhausen is hopefully feeling a little better about himself. I hope that Tony doesn’t feel the same. Sure, Izzy finally put together some pitches, even throwing most for strikes. This does not in the slightest form mean that he should be allowed […]

It is also purported that he can play outfield, but I’d prefer he stay within the diamond. This is kind of a ‘bleh’ move, certainly not one to overwhelm the […]

By now you’ve probably seen the post below, written by avid PH8 reader StLCards. Given my recent (hopefully not too regular) travel schedule for work, I’ve asked StLCards to contribute some posts here and there when he feels he’s got something to tell you folks.

My apologies for the lack of posts the last few days, a spotty internet outage has kept me barely connected. Dear Russ Springer: Shane Victorino murdered that pitch the first time you threw it. What made you think it was a good idea to throw it again? My man-crush on Ryan Ludwick is growing by […]
