    After years of watching baseball, I have a question that has always perplexed me (somewhat):

    Why do left handed hitters seem to have such a beautiful swing, where right handers always look like they are hacking at the ball? Is it because the left handers can fall away from the hit as they go to first where as the righties have to lunge towards first base? I am not talking average, slugging or anything. Just how they look when swinging the bat.

    The Washington Nationals are a traveling circus of dumb.

    Are they still owned by MLB?

    That's why the Cubs signed Jon Lester. Not to throw to first base.

    Paplebon/Harper was entertaining.

    Too bad they both didn't get killed.

    Hate Papelbon. Have nothing against Harper.

    He's cocky, that's it. He's backing it up.

    Papelbon might be the biggest sob in the game.

    Harper to me is one of those guys you hate if he isn't on your team, but you want him on your team.

    Yeah, kinda like Puig, accept the part about backing it up.

    Going to suck that the top three teams in the NL are going to eliminate one another before the NLCS.

    Thank God it's on a Wednesday night so I can actually watch a game for a change.

    I am mixed as to whether I want the Cubs to get the top wildcard spot. I feel they would do better away from Wrigley and their angst ridden fans. Would be a stretch to catch the Pirates anyway.
