Dodgers: A Handsome Sum For Prince?
-
With the Dodgers locking up Matt Kemp with a new deal, maybe they’ll consider Prince Fielder with another 1. It’s not like Frank McCourt will be on the hook for all that cash.

Put It On The Board, Yeah!

Cards 6, Rangers 2.
Make it 11 World Series titles.
We didn’t bet the farm, but we earned a little beer change in 1 of the most improbable runs of all time.

Why not? Bet she wouldn’t have traded Mike Napoli.

No Pointing Fingers At Him

Mike Scioscia doesn’t have a choice but to wiggle past the Mike Napoli questions since Vernon Wells is still with the Angels and still has a chance to prove this wasn’t as lopsided a deal as it is now (boy howdy), but this sounds like Scioscia is taking a page out of the Tony LaRussa book of managing that says “we don’t throw anyone under the bus” and then follow suit.
A defensive Scioscia Tuesday on the Mason and Ireland radio show on ESPN 710: “I think we have to wait a couple years 1st,” he said. Hmmm. Doesn’t a World Series title pay immediate dividends?
“Right now, it’s obvious. Mike Napoli is having an incredible run with Texas. He was certainly capable of doing what he did and we valued him. The thing that cracks me up is when people say we didn’t think he was any good. We played him a lot more than Texas has this year over his career with us.”

Fit To Be Tied
-
That’s a good weekend in Dallas. Rams-Cowboys and 2 World Series games (or you could have ventured up I-35 North to Norman and saw Texas Tech shock the world).
Derek Holland was the man but Angel fans (and me 2) are saying there goes that man again. Mike Napoli busted a cap in the Cardinals in the Rangers 4-0 win tonight to even the series at 2 apiece.

For The Love Of Ron Washington

We love this picture. It says “what the funk did I tell you!”
Rangers 15, Tigers 5.
Back-to-back.
Wasn’t the Rangers bankrupt just a little while back? Maybe there’s hope Dodger fans, but we seriously doubt it. Besides, imagine how Angel fans feel watching Texas advance to its 2nd straight World Series. We’d probably wager the Rangers win it this time too.

Daddy Long Stroke

Nelson Cruz has developed into Mr. Clutch in the postseason. Three years ago, the Rangers put Cruz on waivers, but every other Major League club passed on him. Now he’s inflicting major damage on any club standing in the Rangers way of a World Series title.

Standing On The Verge

Rangers 7, Tigers 3 (11).
Close your eyes again Angel fans. Yep, it’s Mike Napoli delivering another game-winner, but he couldn’t have done it without Nelson Cruz.

Boston Massacre

And the Angels thought they had problems.
First Terry Francona checks out and now its GM Theo Epstein, who is leaving to join the punk-ass Cubs. Now this gem from writer Bob Hohler about how Josh Beckett, John Lackey (you knew he had to be involved) and Jon Lester being the clubhouse cancers who helped fuel their collapse. Good read.
