I’ve got pitchers on the brain – but then again, what else is new?
The Good:
The Tigers just called up hottie Jordan Tata to make his first start in the The Show (against the A’s)- I applaud any move that puts more hottie pitchers on the mound.
And volatile yet hot Carlos Zambrano yesterday become the first pitcher in baseball to get 14 wins this season. I love a man who is handy with a pitch… and his fists.
The Bad:
Newly off the DL, uber-hottie Huston Street ran into some trouble against the Mariners on Sunday and picked up the loss. I’m pretty sure I know a girl or two who’d be happy to comfort him. (and love that retro uni)
The Ugly:
Not only did Astros pitcher cutie Jason Jennings get the L on Sunday, he gave up 11 runs… in one inning. I have nothing clever to say about that, just… YOWCH.

And special love to HOF’er Hotties Cal Ripken, Jr. and Tony Gwynn, who were inducted into Cooperstown yesterday. Congrats to both men- each played the game right (and each played for just one team their entire career, to boot).
Ladies... 
There’s something so schlumpy and charming about Tony Gwynn, isn’t there. My roommate would say “I want to smoosh him!”
/itches belly
shit
“Tata” is a great last name, provided it is pronounced TA-ta
As terrible as the weekend was for the Tigers, this news is TaTariffic!
Sigh.
Can we fast forward to the post season? This mid season slump is the suck.
On a shallow note…Hudson looks hot even in defeat….on a less shallow note, many congrats to Cal and Tony.
Cal was a hottie back in the day. Those blue eyes……sigh
Carlos Z. has never done it for me and I’ve even tried to be objective. I don’t think it’s my hate blinding me.
This weekend with the Tigers was downright depressing D. It pained me to watch those games.
That uni keeps Street safe while he’s jogging at night.
Now, to go back to the orange baseball, Oakland.
Hi,
Hope your full moon Monday has been filled with hotness. In case you are interested, as a follow up to last Monday’s ‘dumb-ass’ post, this is a link to an interview with Michael Rasmusson.
Thanks
CAL!!!!!!! Sports hero and older-man-crush extraordinaire. I think he’s pretty swell. His HOF speech brought a tear to my eye. He’s a lovely guy.
Street, throwback, white pants.
What a great pick-me-up during the middle of the day.
cal ripken is kinda like if paul newman played baseball
so, yes.
It’d be nice if the Indians had bothered to actually take advantage of all of those Tiger losses. Of course, if the second half of our rotation didn’t suck balls, that would have helped.
Yeah, I got a pitcher on the mind right now and his name is COLE MOTHERFUCKING HAMELS (oh…No way…That M stands for Michael? Hmmm…)
ANYWAY, he’s on TV right and oh my dear sweet jesus, could he possibly lick his lips anymore? That tongue is just…I refuse to think any different than that he knows how to use it…VERY well.
Cole Hamels brings the hotness but is killing my Cubbies… Yowch, indeed. Bacon Pants is killing me too!
PHILIES WIN!
Jesus, Cole is a BEAST.
And yes, chitown, I feel torn because I hearts the bacon pants, but I grew up with the Cubs. Ryne Sandberg, anyone?
Phillies win but loose 2 more players…Rowand better keep his bacon ass out of any walls, holes or players gloves!
