White Sox rule, Cubs suck, Jeff Weaver is still a bitch ass.

FUCK YEA.

My Royals are 11-6 in June so far, & I'm enjoying it while it lasts. Still waiting for the WSox to start choking ( & I might be waiting awhile ) , & praying that the Yanks DON'T end up putting it all together.

Braves not dead yet. Andruw Jones now leading the league in homers.

If we can hang on with this rag-tag bunch of rookies until Hampton, Chip, Hudson and Thompson get back----we win the division by 10 games as usual. I have no faith in the Phillies, Fish, or Nationals. The Mets should move to Hobokken.

Tribe: in the thick of wild card standings thanks to a 9-game winning streak. Yay interleague play.

I was just about to post this K. Yeah, 4 games back with about 5 minor leaguers in your line up ain't bad. This series with the Fish will be pretty telling. I think if they stay around 4-5 games back and make to mid July with everyone back they'll make a run at it.

Mets: What the hell is with Shea man? Is this where all stars go to die or what? Carlos Beltran is batting around .250 right now and has like 2 hits in his last 32 at bats or something. Is Pedro even pitching?

The Nationals are an enigma to me. I just hope that they aren't this fluke team that brings it together for one year.

O-R-I-O-L-E-S

Orioles Magic, make it happen!

Wild Bill Hagy needs to get his fat ass back on the dugout and get his spell on.

cubs look like they're going to kill everyone one week, then drop 5 straight the next.

not that it matters or anyone cares but the Brewers brought up two phenoms in the past week; Weeks and Fielder...Weeks is the real deal I think, Fielder is destined to be a DH.

Prince Fielder, right? Cecil's boy, even though he ain't too fond of his father these days.

Yeah, I saw a feature on that to. Nice work there, Big Poppa Douchebag!

yep, that's him and nope he doesn't speak with his dad from what I've read...I guess he gambled away a good sum of money.

Good sum of money six or seven times over in one night. Then a fucking gigantic house.

Apparently he's as proficient at gambling as he was at stealing bases.

Good christ, man. If I'm that bad at something I just fucking stop.

Cards still doing well. Rolen is back, along with Isrenhausen. LaRussa's going to treat the All-Star game like the World Series.

giants are dead

I'm consistently stunned that people still don't think the White Sox are for real. This team will easily finish with the best record in their franchise history.

I'm just amazed how they can have a top 3 ERA in probably a top 3 hitters ballpark in the league.

More of a hitters park than:

The Ballpark at Arlington, Fenway, & Camden Yards? I don't think so. Probably others that are more of a hitters park also.

The White Sox are a nice story but its hard not to think they are overachieving a bit.

Pedro has been dominating, but Beltran has sucked.

The Nats are a quality team. No superstars, but a good collection of solid players. Guys like Nick Johnson, Brad Wilkerson, Livan Hernandez, even Esteban Loiza. I think they're for real.

More homeruns hit in US Cellular Field last season than any park in the majors.

yes.

Might go higher tonight with B Mac pitching. This whole thing with El Duque smells kind of funny. You put me on the DL last month and now I go on there this month. Good thing we have a GM that won't let this start go to waste.

The Nationals suck, but they scrap and find a way to win. I doubt they will finish higher than 3rd when it's all said and done.

I like Frank Robinson, though.

Is there a stat listed somewhere by ballpark? I'd like to see this.

Baseball-reference.com is nice... they have a feature called Park Factor where they rate if a park factor favors batters or pitchers.

US Cellular has higher ratings than Jacobs or Camden but trails Coors and Ameriquest. As for actual numbers, further digging is needed.
