Have I mentioned how much I [expletive]ing hate Matt Diaz?

This season gets more and more disappointing by the day. At least it wasn't 104 degrees tonight...

Yep. Well, he says he will root for them against the Eagles at least.

If any of you have talked to "Diesel" recently, you probably know that the [expletive] is a Redskins fan now! . I am sure there are plenty others who jumped off the bandwagon with him. Makes me want to see Kolb succeed even more.

If this is true, I'd say Gagne is 100% on the way out. Which means I will withhold any judgement on this for the time being. First have to see what Zherdev's contract is, how the Gagne situation resolves itself, and how the Flyers use their newfound cap space (assuming there is some).

There is a report in Russia that the Flyers have signed Nikolai Zherdev.

Evgeni Nabokov is going to the KHL.

Yeah honestly. It is kind of surprising this doesn't happen more often.

Wow. Rockies score 9 in the 9th to beat the Cardinals. Seth Smith walk off HR.

Yes. Once the sun went down around 8:30ish it wasn't bad and there was even a breeze for a little bit, but otherwise it was brutal.

Good lord....Trevor Crowe's reaction just about sums it up for those who were there, I'd imagine.

Well, at least sitting through 4 hours of 104 degree heat proved worthwhile at the end.....not. This team is quite frustrating. 3 hits in 11 innings!

Predators sign Sergei Kostitsyn. 1 year deal.

OK, forget that. NY Post fail.

Ruben Amaro is praying this is true. If Lee goes to the Mets, Ruben will be burned at the stake in Philadelphia.

This is going out on a whim.....but I say Scott Rolen.

Brennan Boesch = my fantasy savior.

Eh, it's the first positive thing to happen for us in a couple weeks. Might as well enjoy it!

I bet Weaver makes his way onto the team eventually. Every year, guys decide not to go at the last minute, because they pitch on the Sunday before the game (there are a handful of guys on the AL roster scheduled to pitch Sunday, I believe) or other reasons.

Truth.

The Doctor is in. We needed that.

Basically.

Well, it would help if the top of our lineup would get their asses in gear. No joke, it seems like Wilson Valdez is the only guy coming to play every day.
