What does this mean? or more accurately.. how the hell does this happen? the razor blade he was using to mark up the ball slipped?
—A.J. Burnett has been removed from the New York Yankees’ game against Tampa Bay in the third inning because of cuts on his pitching hand.
I watched a few minutes of that game.

Not sure how that compares to other pitchers, but it seems like it’s much worse. He’s only made it through the lineup more than three times once, and he only faced one hitter and that dude hit a double. Baseball Reference, you are awesome.

“Hey, Buster. You’re doing a great job back there. But, um, there’s something that all the pitchers kinda wanted to talk to you about, and I’m gonna say it. None of us actually throw a gyroball. I don’t know what you’ve been reading, maybe some stuff from when Dice-K first entered the league? It doesn’t matter, we would all just really appreciate it if you would stop putting down six fingers, wiggling them around, and winking like you’ve just figured out some sort of secret.”

I’m going to be teaching freshman comp. There’s a lot of relevant stuff – I mentioned the K’naan song and revision. Welcome to the Terrordome I want to use to talk about rhetoric, and the David Sedaris piece, well – a big part of what we want to do in comp is dispel the ideas that high school English teachers tend to give students, that’s there’s only one way to write an essay, that it always has to be stuffy and lifeless and can’t ever use the first person and stuff like that. Of course, some writing does have to be that way, but different disciplines have different forms and different voices, so the idea is to familiarize students with cultivating different voices, and getting comfortable moving between those voices. All of which is to say: Sedaris has this incredibly strong voice, and sometimes writes about things that are actually pretty serious (and even this essay, which is very silly, is immaculately researched in a weird sort of way), but he never loses that sense of voice in his writing. And that’s something that’s really hard for a lot of students to wrap their heads around. So it’s a good example.

Good for you, jcb!! As a high school English teacher, I do all I can to show them that an essay in not a formula. The idea that it can be formularized is convenient for the guidance of low level learners or lazy thinkers, but most students flourish if allowed to develop their own voices.

I wish I could do more stuff like that
My first year teaching I tried to use some hip hop song to teach the difference between primary and secondary sources. I had an article about hip hop music and I had the lyrics of an actual hip hop song (I forgot which one).
Most of my students didn’t get it. I got a lot of “Why are we reading a hip hop song?” Even after I explained it. Twice. I stopped doing stuff like that after that.
Maybe I’ll try again. I got kind of jaded in some respects my first year.

Have I mentioned how glad I am that Francouer is not a Giant?
He seems like the kind of guy BORK would love.
Jonathan Sanchez. He's left-handed, like Barry Zito. His fastball breaks 80, unlike Zito.

no such thing as home runs in PETCO

I don't even care about the Padres that much
If we can pass COL and LAD, catching the Padres seems totally doable
Proudly adopted Aubrey Huff. You can't beat that!
I’m never going to get tired of that Jon Miller pitch

Wait Posey made an error?
SABES WAS RIGHT!

Posey sucks.
bring back the 300lb cycle hitting catcher.
For the thirteen time in 3 or one evers, I found myself toothlessly thinking about Manny Ramirez.
