John Smoltz thinks the reason he got roughed up last night is because his balls were not properly rubbed down. Yet, opposing pitcher Bronson Arroyo threw just fine. Is it because he was rubbing something special on his own balls? More »

Bronson Arroyo admits that he pumps his body full off all manner of unapproved chemicals and that MLB drug tests don't really concern him. And what about a hardcore steroid user like Manny Ramirez? If he dies, he dies. More »

We'll get into Roger Clemens more a little bit later — because we know you can just never get enough Roger Clemens and steroids talk, obviously — but we wanted to take a moment to salute Peter Gammons, everyone's favorite Andrew Jackson-impersonating, hard-rockin' baseball reporter. More »

Last night, we saw the Majestic Rock that is The Sword. We left quite rocked. But we ain't seen nothin' yet; Bronson Arroyo is on tour. More »

There's crazy, and then there's that special brand of crazy that is Reds pitcher Bronson Arroyo. What would you do if you were a major league pitcher going for your 10th win of the season, as Arroyo will be doing on Thursday? Why, you'd dedicate the win to actress Bo Derek, naturally. Because she was in the movie "10," in which she also wore her hair in cornrows, which you are fond of doing. Since 2004 with the Red Sox, Arroyo has named all of his wins, with No. 10 being "Bo." He plans to braid his hair for Thursday's game, of course. More »

Clearly, though, it's all worked out well, so much so that now he's making some highly unusual local commericals. More »

As we mentioned yesterday, we skipped the Red Sox-Yankees histrionics to see the Reds and Cardinals play in Cincinnati ... and for a Cardinals fan, it was pretty miserable. Bronson Arroyo continued to forget he's Bronson Arroyo — hasn't anybody in Cincinnati distracted him with a groupie yet? — and the Cardinals went down meekly, 6-1. More »

After an brutal spring so far — OK, he didn't really get rocked by a Little League team — rockin' righthander Bronson Arroyo was traded this morning to the Cincinnati Reds for outfielder Wily Mo Pena. We support this trade, for three major reasons. More »

More Webshot findings from the ladies of On The DL, and though none are quite as damning as the married Brandon Arroyo housing poor college students on his lap, there's still some pretty fun stuff. Not least of which are creative shirt designs from Phillies outfielder Pat Burrell (whom this blind item is definitely not about, no no) and Astros portly elder Roger Clemens (who is definitely not being protected from a positive steroid test that will be released at the end of the year, no no). Roger's with Nationals closer Chad Cordero's lady friend in that picture, by the way. More »

We were going to reveal the final of our three blind items today, but those crazy ladies at On The DL have something even better for today, so we're gonna hold off. They've put together a compendium of photos online of baseball players boozing and tarting it up with various "fans" across the country. Included are Yankees pitcher Mike Mussina, unemployed slob Sidney Ponson, Dodgers broadcaster-humper Derek Lowe and Red Sox "rocker" Bronson Arroyo, pictured above — and in this photo album — with a woman who is most definitely not his wife.

After some legitimate complaints about his off-field pursuits, Red Sox pitcher/archaic grunge rocker Bronson Arroyo might be the most important pitcher the team has right now. So apparently the Red Sox themselves have tired of all the rocking, asking him to cut down on the music until, you know, we find out whether the Red Sox can defend their title or not. Which is a shame; we kind of wanted to see more little kids with those ridiculous braids. More »
