If Barajas were more clutch

he wouldn’t have let Harris make that diving catch.

This is my new plan for bases loaded, no out.

Do not swing at anything. They are bound to walk somebody eventually. 1 run is better than none.

Gas prices today are a lot like a pitcher's ERA. Anything under 3 is amazing, under 4 is pretty good and anything 5 and up is something you want to avoid.

Im amazed we hit over 200 with the bases loaded, it feels like way less.

Do they also have us ranked by OBP with the bases loaded by any chance? I wonder if we get over .250 if you include walks and HBPs

In 2009

we were 29th with a .250 obp (mlb average was .320). In 2008 we were 29th with a .265 obp, mlb average was .319.

in billionaire russian playboys we trust.

Those are just two vaguely related facts

And it’s a bit misleading. The Mets also hit .276 with RISP in 2009, which was sixth best among all Major League teams.

UPDATE 1: My browser has crashed several times in the process from all the rants (FUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!) - as a result, there will instead be 4 or 5 separate installments of fxcarden's Nightly Rants! from 2011, with a similar pattern for the 2012 rants. Take my word for it, when I say that it's for the best. Here's the revised schedule:

Volume 1: 2011
No. 1: Today at 5:00 PM EDT
No. 2: Tomorrow
No. 3: Thursday
No. 4 and No. 5 (?) TBD

2013 ALL-STAR GAME(TM) LOGO CONTEST

Major League Baseball has formally announced that Citi Field will be the site of the 2013 All-Star Game. (see video) In light of this, I have decided to launch an All-Star Game logo contest. To help get you started, I provided all of you with a sample All-Star Game logo. (click here to embiggen) If you wish to participate, please enter your submission with an image below, in the comments section. The contest ends on May 31st. I will choose a select number of finalists, and the community will vote on which of those logos is the best one.

Can you create a better logo than the sample logo provided? Then, give it a shot. Good luck to all participants!
Jon Rauch is awesome. Dan Tanna is, obviously, a fan of Greg Pomes.
