Sometimes I forget that the D'backs are managed by Kirk Gibson.

He pitched after THAT? What the fuuuuuuuuu
NO, he didnt --
Sunday afternoon, Angel Pagan lined a comebacker off Jason Marquis' shin bone. Marquis stayed in the game, but the next inning, he was consequently involved in one of the strangest baseball scenes I've ever witnessed:(gif)Marquis hit Josh Thole in the leg with a pitch. Thole went down, and Marquis went down - the former because he got hit by a baseball, and the latter because he had a fractured leg. By continuing to pitch after the comebacker, Marquis' injury got worse, to the point where this happened and he was removed.

I don't think it's unacceptable to say the fibula is also a shin bone. They're kind of side by side.

zero recollection of Ryan Roberts when he was, allegedly, in Toronto.if that's even his real name.

Had no idea Ian Kennedy was anywhere near 17 wins.
"Kennedy is 7-0 with a 1.98 ERA in 11 starts against the NL West this season."

couldn't be bothered to start a new thread... just wondering why, in a 1-run game, they would let Ian Kennedy hit with a runner on in the 7th and then pull him right after?!

from USA Today:
According to ESPN.com, television announcer Daron Sutton has been suspended due to "insubordination." The report cited a dispute between Sutton and the club about the team's on-air dress code.A source confirmed that dispute to The Republic, saying that while the club prefers its broadcast team to wear polo shirts adorned with the Diamondbacks logo, Sutton has lobbied to wear suits...Without going into detail, another source said the Diamondbacks have had various issues with Sutton for years.
