Diamondbacks Peg Andrew McCutchen In Back; McCutchen Furious
Pirates outfielder Andrew McCutchen took a pitch to his back in Saturday night's game against the Diamondbacks. On a 2-0 count, Arizona reliever Randall Delgado plunked McCutchen. It looked painful, but McCutchen wasn't seriously injured. McCutchen was visibly furious, not at the beaning, but beca...

Timberwolves Owner: Kevin Love Will Likely Be Traded By End Of August
Since the beginning of the NBA offseason, we've been wondering if the Timberwolves will move Kevin Love, who has one year left on his contract and would prefer to spend his future somewhere that isn't Minnesota. Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor now says that although he'd like to keep Love, the power ...

Roberto Hernandez Catches Liner Right At His Face
This is why Phil Hughes acted like a spazz trying to catch a non-existent liner earlier in the week. You never know when a batter is going to redirect your pitch right into your face. Roberto Hernandez knows: better safe than sorry. ...

How To Make Clam Chowder Like Real Fackin' New Englandahs Do, Maybe
There is a reason why every run-down, disreputable, reeking, inexplicably charming fish joint in North America serves New England-style clam chowder, and that's that New England-style clam chowder is goddamn delicious. Also, there are two other reasons....

Oh No, Some NBA Players Are Collaborating On A Rap Album

Dave Dombrowski And Billy Beane Have An Entertaining GM Rivalry
There are few occasions when you want to hear from your team's general manager. Usually, he's explaining why something went wrong, talking about how the team's trying not to suck, or saying goodbye as he's fired. The best times, though, are in free agency and at the trade deadline—unless your GM's R...

Sierra Nevada's Beer Camp 12-Pack, Ranked
Last week, I said that the current number of breweries in the United States—we're up to a bit more than 3,000—is unsustainable, and I was probably wrong. As long as these fledgling operations keep a modest focus on their home markets, there's no reason we can't have a German-style system that supp...

P.K. Subban And The Habs Head To Arbitration
There's something farcical about arbitration hearings, which, when you get down to it, feature a team's executives arguing in front of a player that he isn't very good. It's happening to the best defenseman in NHL as we speak....

Jim Bowden Claims He Was Hacked
As funny as Jim Bowden's online meltdown after being caught stealing trade news from a fake Twitter account was—and it was hilarious—attempting to pass off someone else's scoop as your own without attribution is frowned upon in this business.

Phillies GM Explains Why Terrible Team Didn't Get Better
The trade deadline should have been the Phillies' day. They are bad, foundering, getting worse, weighed down by terrible contracts and not about to be bailed out by talent from a thin minor league system. But they have handful of good major leaguers, all older, all who would be very useful for a t...

Manny Machado Is Just Embarrassing Albert Pujols Now
Can someone please get Albert Pujols a jetpack, or a Rascal or something? Jesus. For the second night in a row Manny Machado showed off his stupid-strong arm and for the second night in a row, poor Albert Pujols was the victim....

Cliff Lee Exits Early With Injury, Yells "Fuck!"
It's hard to say what happened—and speculating about injuries is the worst—but in the video here (not embeddable yet), Cliff lee is obviously upset and frustrated after throwing his 31st pitch of the game. In the third inning, with Denard Span up, Lee threw a cutter and immediately looked disgus...

Did ESPN Get Fooled By A Fake Twitter Account Reporting A Zobrist Trade?
Minutes ago on Baseball Tonight's trade deadline special, it was announced that Tampa's Ben Zobrist was heading to Pittsburgh. But it wasn't true, and the first and only person reporting it was a fake Bob Nightengale Twitter account....

Here's What Getting Traded Looks Like
Indians middle infielder Asdrubal Cabrera was traded to the Washington Nationals today. Shortly after the trade was made official, Chronicle Telegram reporter Brian Dulik snapped this picture of Cabrera going all Sad Keanu on us in the hallway outside the Indians locker room....
