Skip Schumaker said it's great to be back at Busch Stadium. I asked him if there's any specific memories that come back to him:
"Wearing this jersey, I'm not sure I can say the specific memory that I want to say."

Let’s face it. You’re just trying to have a paid vacation to the beautiful streets of Zurich Switzerland and enjoy the world’s finest $400 CHF lunch and then you get hit back across the continental divide on a god dam Thursday afternoon. Bouchard gets caught CHIN over SHIN and will be taking ImPACT tests until Canada Day reading back 7 words to the doctor like his name is 10 second Tom. Repeat after me: “Chin, Tucked, Wrench, Bunk, Baseball, Porn, Cleveland”.

The Red Sox are in the market for a right-handed hitter with thump. Last year, they gave up Blaze Jordan, a former 3rd round draft pick, for two months of Steven Matz. Jordan, 23, has a Class AAA slash line of .317/.378/.537 so far this year, with 8 homers, 14 walks, 20 Ks. Chaim Bloom knew the player.
Albert Pujols said he rejected a $315M offer before signing a contract with the Angels in 2011.
The team who made the offer, which he didn't reveal, is an hour and forty minutes from the Dominican Republic, he said.
