One year ago today, the Boston Red Sox pulled off the Greatest Trade That Ever Happened, ridding themselves of Fat Josh Beckett, Adrian Gonzalez and Carl Crawford. I cannot thank Magic Johnson enough for being such a bonehead to take on those three albatross contracts.

Alfonso Soriano pimps it during last night's Yankees-Rays game. He flew out to left.

I'm dead serious when I say that I am considering going out and getting a cake to commemorate the occasion

Just as I was amped up for a sweep of perhaps baseball's best team, Lance Lynn decides to play Debbie Downer again.

Kevin Gregg suffered a blown save in Sunday's extra-inning loss to the Padres.

Just saw the highlight, Miggy does what Miggy does (again) and I'm having video game flashbacks. Honestly, I'm waiting for baseballs to start pressing assault charges. It's September, but with 4 homers dude could win another triple crown. Nobody's gone back to back with it, of course, but if he pulls it off he joins Hornsby and Teddy Ballgame. Oddly, they're both two guys who were ok but not great defensively (and the reports on Horsby from back in the day were that he was just not very good on defense but when you hit .400 for a few years straight it's ok if you suck on defense).

Partially torn UCL. Damn it. Such is the life of a Met fan. If it's not blow then it's the elbow.

The Mets have to be the most unlucky team in baseball history. Really sad that Harvey won't be able to finish the season. Hopefully the tear heals quickly and he'll be good to go for Spring Training.

If I had to guess, I say DeGrom replaces him in the rotation. Montero is better but I think he'll be more 2014.

It's Tommy John's? Yikes.
Guess that shows how little I know about human anatomy. I thought the UCL was a knee ligament and not an elbow one. >_>
