That is one horrible story. 3 dead in a collision with a light poll was all I heard on the radio. Is there any more to it? Was it on an expressway or high speed road? Horrible either way, I just can't picture that much damage near a downtown intersection or similar road.

hit and run with a minivan that ran a red light in an intersection... driver has a history of suspended licenses/DUI. fortunately they were caught by police... but not much more you can say |

They are now saying the other guy was drunk. Absolute tragedy for Adenhart's and the passenger's families.

This one hits close to home. Nick's half-brother, Henry, goes to high school with my kids. Nick was around a lot, and was very well liked by everybody that knew him. I've attached a link to a local story about how the local kids reacted to the news. |

After reading about the Adenhart tragedy, I watched Giants rookie pitcher Joe Martinez take a line drive to the head off the bat of Mike Cameron. He was able to walk off but he was bleeding and badly swollen, and was taken to the hospital - no broken bones, but he was concussed. Cameron was very shaken up (he was literally shaking) and needed to be consoled by several Giants and teammates....

That was pretty scary. The red sox have had a couple people go that route, Bryce Florie and Matt Clement and neither were ever the same again. I hope Martinez recovers better if his injuries are serious.

I was at the game also. It was a terrible thing to see, and it was obvious how shaken up everyone was.
I intend to die in a tavern: let the wine be placed near my dying mouth, so that when the choirs of angels come, they may say, “God be merciful to this drinker!”

Feels good to take 2 of 3 from the "Jr. Evil Empire" over the weekend. Especially stealing one from Santana. Good thing JJ had the Mets number and we could get 2 unearned runs through early.
I have high hopes the Marlins starters will be able to keep them in alot of games. Nice to see that JJ and Sanchez seem healthy...just hope they can make it the whole year.

How does everyone out in Mannywood feel after hearing he'd like to play for Cleveland before his career is over after they outbid themselves to get him for 45 million?

my feeling: as long as we get +/-145 games, .300 100/30/100 out of him and he's his usual clutch self this season & the playoffs, have fun in Cleveland its really 1 year, $15m for 2009 and he can walk after that with the player option for $25m in 2010, and im fine with that... manny being manny |

Maybe the Yanks should replace Wang in the rotation with Swisher. Then again that's how Canseco blew his arm out. It'll be easier for the Sox to beat Wang the way he's going this year so on second thought never mind.

The Orioles have given up 45 runs in the first 7 games. (more than 6 per game--even with the shutout that Guthrie started). Yet they are 5-2. Perhaps there is something to what Yogi Berra said: Good pitching can always stop good hitting, and vice versa.

Bigger problem than the injuries is Luis Ayala. Given up at least 1 run every outing. If he doesn't start doing better soon, cut him loose |
