I'll go with neither. Penny pitches Tuesday.

However, with Hendrickson and Tomko pitching Wed. and Thu., it's about as close to a lock as you can get!

I don't care if Barry breaks the record in LA, if:

1. The Giants lose the game

and

2. Barry doesn't live to see a championship in SF.

Congratulations on your individual accomplishment, douchebag. Too bad you don't have a ring, huh?

Well said !

I hope to hell he doesn't do it in Dodger Stadium. How many damn highlight reels to I have to sit through in my life of Dodgers giving up historic HRs? From Bobby Thompson to Hank Aaron to Reggie Jackson, etc, enough is enough. Hit him in the ****ing coconut every time he comes to bat.

You want to know why Dodgers fans despise Barry Bonds?

You want to know why, beginning tonight, they will land continuous insults on his runway-sized neck as he dares to break the career home run record at Dodger Stadium?

Two words. One swing.

The Pirouette.

Best Plaschke article I've read in a long time.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

The Dodgers and Yankees have agreed in principle on a trade that would send reliever Scott Proctor to the Dodgers for infielder Wilson Betemit, sources told ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney.

The Dodgers, who have a 5.61 bullpen ERA since the All-Star break, have been in on a number of trade discussions involving relievers but zeroed in on Proctor over the last 24 hours.

The Yankees view Betemit as another first-base/DH/bench option for this year, and a potential third-base replacement for Alex Rodriguez next year.

Betemit is batting .231 with 10 home runs and 26 RBIs this season off the Dodgers' bench. Proctor is 2-5 with a 3.81 ERA, and his 54 1/3 innings out of the Yankees' bullpen are tied for fourth-most among AL relievers.

GODDAMNIT Flanders! You said that the most inquiries you received from teams was FOR BETEMIT AND THE BEST YOU CAN F'N GET IS A TIRED SCOTT PROCTOR?!?!
Goddamnit!

I don't really have a problem with this move. With Betemit out of the way now LaRoche has the inside track on 3B next year.

How good's his curveball? He's got a decent sidearm.
