First place White Sox get swept in a four game series by the Astros. Should really be in a bad frame of mind when they come to Pittsburgh on Tues.

Here is the current standings for lowly four

1. Arizona (losers of 13 in a row) 20-53

2. Orioles   23-48

3. Rangers 25-46

4. Pirates   25-45

Arizona with a 3 game lead



Giants continue having the best record in baseball at 46-26.


The White Sox won't be able to use the DH when they're in town so that should even things up.   ::)
Yes, but they have Tony La Russa. If he is sober

Trey Mancini becomes the "homegrown" Oriole to reach 100 home runs while with the team the entire time.



The previous fastest (homegrown Oriole with the team for all 100 homers)? Boog Powell, way back when.



The Orioles will keep Trey Mancini for a while.

He's a FA after next season so will probably be traded next year if not sooner. There is already speculation he will be traded by this season's TDL.

As I read that, I keep wondering whether I want to propose a "Who Gets Dumped First?" wager- Mancini....or Hayes!
