@Windier E. Megatons: He's probably just cranky that the Cubs took over the lead in the NL Central.

Did the absolutely fantastic Seattle/Angels series, with one game ending on a Torii Hunter catch over the wall of what would have been Richie Sexson third (and go-ahead) home run with two out in the ninth, and the other ending on Ryan Rowland-Smith's strikeout of Garret Anderson with the bases loaded and the winning run on first, happen on another planet?

@Secret Identity: I like when Matt Stairs gets a single or a walk, because then I get to watch him stand next to first base coach Ernie Whitte and try to figure out which is which.

@Gourmet Spud:

Matt Stairs looks like a fat Stone Cold Steve Austin. I endorse using his theme music solely for this reason.

So, when did John Danks turn into Mark Buehrle (the very good version)? Because I like it. And I even checked -- his BABIP isn't some absurdly low number like, say, Gavin Floyd.

BTW, way to go Phils' management for pinch-hitting J-Roll for a week and a half when he could have been on the DL resting his ankle. Only two more weeks to order your Eric Bruntlett jerseys, folks.

(Nice play to save the game last night Bruntlett. But you still suck.)
