Wow, JJ Hickson got traded to Jimmer Fredette's team for an Israeli bench player. That is so exciting and also a 1st round pick only if Sacto isn't in the lottery which would seem to be impossible. Luckily they won't be playing in 2011/2012 so we won't have to witness some craziness going on there.

And just as I thought, Verlander made our return to first very short. He's not pitching tonight though!

It's a conditional first round pick which they get in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 or, 2016 depending on how well Sacto does. I think if they are always in the lottery we never get it or something like that and get a 2nd rounder in 2017. They are always in the lottery but if they are ever not in the lottery, we then get their 1st round pick. It's the opposite of the Baron Davis trade. They hated him so much they didn't care we got their number 1 pick.

Omri Caspri is his name I think. He is the original Israeli in the NBA. Anthony Parker was a legend in the Israeli professional league. So just as the Indians are America's and South Korea's team, the Cavs are undoubtedly Israel's team now.

Wow, 8 runs. That is a slow pitch softball field they have in Kentucky there. Nice for Bat to get some runs finally...more than he's had all of May and June...he pitched great. Back in first place....July 1st!! 10-6 in interleague now. Exhausto and Talbots in that field scares me though.

They have escaped a 70's like June Swoon.

You're right, though.....Reds hitters are already salivating.

AC is having an incredible year, thus ruining my prediction Brantley would prove to be their best position player.This is why I now hate him.
