The marlins announcers said the guy who caught the ball told the Reds officials that he wasn’t going to give them his name, and if they want to contact him, they can contact the Marlins. Says he “has plans.”

OK...

I wasn’t going to call him a jerk until this detail emerged, because it’s his ball, and he should do what he wants with it.

If you got a ball like that, you would at least think of selling it, particularly if you’ve got four hungry children and a crop in the fields.

i have no clue who we call up

there’s no infielder on the 40-man, so we’re gonna have to waste someone’s option or go without a backup SS for a week. My guess is Luis Bolivar, because it doesnt really matter if they waste an option on him, or maybe Chris Valaika, who’s just starting to hit in Chattanooga.

I'm wondering what he did to get on The List

Bronson Sardinha was released by the Mariners for something he did that landed him on the suspended list. He won’t say what it was, except that it was “a mistake off the field.” Apparently, the Rainiers were playing in Fresno, and they just left him behind there.

Jared Burton is the bee's knees.

"My wife ain't never ran and got me no pheasant." - Fistbands

by BK on Jun 9, 2008 9:36 PM EDT reply actions  

"The bee's knees"
A bee’s “corbiculae”, or pollen-baskets, are located on its
tibiae (midsegments of its legs). The phrase “the bee’s knees”,
meaning “the height of excellence”, became popular in the U.S. in
the 1920s, along with “the cat’s whiskers” (possibly from the use
of these in radio crystal sets), “the cat’s pajamas” (pyjamas were
still new enough to be daring), and similar phrases which made less
sense and didn’t endure: “the eel’s ankle”, “the elephant’s
instep”, “the snake’s hip”. Stories in circulation about the
phrase’s origin include: “b’s and e’s”, short for “be-alls and
end-alls”; and a corruption of “business”.
