Ichiro Suzuki Nearing Two Ultimate Hit Milestones
Although it won't officially count in the record books, Ichiro Suzuki is on the verge of surpassing the all-time hit record of 4,256 professional hits, set by Pete Rose over the course of his would-be Hall of Fame career. Sitting on 4,255 combined pro hits between Major League Baseball and Japan's equivalent level Nippon Baseball League, Ichiro is just two hits shy of having the most hits in professional baseball history.
However, as previously stated, it won't go down as the official record for hits in Major League Baseball history, as 1,278 of Ichiro's career hits came over in Japan and therefore don't count towards his career numbers here in America. But regardless, it's still an amazing accomplishment.
Ichiro first broke into the majors back in 2001 at age 27. That year with the Mariners, Ichiro recorded one of the best first seasons in MLB history. With 242 hits, a .350 average and 56 stolen bases, Ichiro walked away with the MVP and Rookie of the Year awards, along with a Silver Slugger, Gold Glove and an All-Star appearance. Quite the haul for a player in their very first year.
Going on to have nine consecutive superstar level seasons following 2001, including nine more Gold Gloves, nine subsequent seasons of 200+ hits (including the single-season record of 262 back in 2004) and nine more All-Star games, Ichiro hasn't been on the same level since his last star season in 2010. But that doesn't matter. He's still an all-time great and a sure first-ballot Hall of Famer.
His approaching milestone of 3,000 career MLB hits is further evidence of that. Although Ichiro has slacked off a bit in his seasonal numbers since leaving the Mariners in 2012, he is still fun to watch, and can still hit with the best of them. Now just 23 hits away from becoming the 30th player to reach the 3,000 hit mark, the 42-year-old Ichiro is certainly still an MLB-level talent.
Even though he won't go down in history as the all-time hits king — Pete Rose would seem to be happy about that — Ichiro will definitely go down as the best all-around player to ever come out of Japan, and one of the best in the entire history of Major League Baseball.
Hit-record or not, Ichiro is still in a class all his own.
My 2015 Postseason Predictions
For the fourth straight season, I made preseason predictions as to how I felt each division would play out, and for the fourth straight season I was extremely far off. For one reason or another, I'm not very good at making division predictions before a given season begins.
This year, though, I hope to finally correctly predict how the postseason will play out. While I'll likely be off, either by a little or a lot, it's always fun to make predictions. Who knows? Maybe I'll get lucky and have a perfect prediction of how the postseason will play out. You never can tell what may happen in October.
WILD CARD GAMES (AL October 6th & NL October 7th)
American League: Yankees Vs. Astros
Winner: Yankees
It's somewhat difficult to pick a winner of this matchup. Neither one of these teams were locks to make the playoffs at all when the season began, and yet here they are. I would have to say that the Astros' lineup has more thump in it than the Yankees by a bit, but when it comes down to it, I think the bullpen will decide this game. With Masahiro Tanaka going up against Dallas Keuchel, the relievers could very well be the ultimate factor. With that said, I think the Yankees will be able to hold off the Astros and advance to the next round.
National League: Pirates Vs. Cubs
Winner: Cubs
This is another tough one to call. With it being just one game, and with Jake Arrieta going up against Gerrit Cole, you can basically flip a coin to pick which team is more likely to win. Overall, though, I think that the Cubs will have the added motivation of trying to break the century long World Series drought that will help them prevail. Even so, this is sure to be one of the best games of the entire playoffs when all is said and done. Both teams have great lineups, and each has the ability to make this an unforgettable game.
AMERICAN LEAGUE DIVISION SERIES (Begins October 8th)
Blue Jays Vs. Rangers
Winner: Blue Jays
The Rangers have a good pitching staff as well as a good lineup, but they are quite simply no match for the Blue Jays in my mind. I could easily see this being a three-game sweep by the Blue Jays if Toronto's pitchers can pitch well. Their roster, consisting of unbelievable power throughout the lineup, is more than enough to dominate the Rangers. Although the Rangers made an impressive run to even make it into the playoffs, their run will likely end in the first true round of the 2015 postseason.
Royals Vs. Yankees
Winner: Royals
After making it all the way to the World Series in 2014 — they lost to the Giants in game seven — I think the Royals will easily overtake the Yankees. The Royals have a strong team in every single aspect. From their pitching staff to their bullpen to their extremely diverse lineup, the Royals are a very formidable club. Although I'm not sure they will make it to the World Series as they did in 2014, I think they will have no problem overtaking the Yankees, despite the Yankees being a good team as well.
NATIONAL LEAGUE DIVISION SERIES (Begins October 9th)
Dodgers Vs. Mets
Winner: Dodgers
This is going to be a series for the ages. The Dodgers have one of the best one-two pitching staff punches in baseball history, with Clayton Kershaw and Zack Greinke, and their offense is one that can score a lot of runs. Likewise, the Mets have a deep pitching staff that starts with phenom Matt Harvey, and they can score runs with the best of them as well. I could see this series going down to a game five, with the team that scores first being the team that holds on to advance to the Championship series.
Cardinals Vs. Cubs
Winner: Cardinals
Unfortunately, this is where I see the Cubs' hopes for a 2015 World Championship coming to an end. They are a good team, as I previously stated, but I don't think they can withstand the team with the best record from the regular season. The Cardinals are a great team, and they know how to win. I think they will continue their winning ways and push on to the next round of the playoffs. Despite that, it should be fun to watch the Cubs put up a fight to take out the Cardinals. If absolutely everything goes perfect, they could do it, but I just don't see that happening.
AMERICAN LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES (Begins October 16th)
Blue Jays Vs. Royals
Winner: Blue Jays
What a series this would be. Both teams are dynamic, and both teams are very talented. However, both teams can't win. With that said, I think it will be back and forth series in every sense of the word. I think this series will take six or seven games to decide, and it will be extremely exciting to watch. In the end, however, the Jays have an extremely good team, and I see them knocking the Royals out of contention. Although the Blue Jays haven't been to the World Series since 1993, I have them making it there this year.
NATIONAL LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES (Begins October 17th)
Cardinals Vs. Dodgers
Winner: Dodgers
Another sure to be great series against two great teams, this is yet again a nearly impossible matchup to predict (as many of them are). It could honestly go either way, depending on an exponential number of factors. It will all come down to who is hot at the right times and which team comes up with the clutch hits. But if Kershaw can hold up against the Cardinals (something history has shown he's had a difficulty doing), I would bet my money on the Dodgers. They have the ability to make it into the World Series.
WORLD SERIES (Begins October 27th)
Blue Jays Vs. Dodgers
Winner: Dodgers
If the Blue Jays can't score runs they can't win games. That's the logic I'm using for trying to predict the World Series. Going up against the Dodgers' unbelievable pitching staff, it may be difficult for Toronto to come out on top. The Blue Jays' strength is undoubtedly their power bats, which the Dodgers don't have as much of. But the Dodgers have more than their share of good pitching, which is what usually has the edge. When all is said and done, and the season has completely come to an end, I see the Dodgers as the only team remaining, as World Series Champions.
Leave a comment with who you have winning the World Series. I'd love to hear your picks.
Excitement Building With First Place Races
From one year to the next, you never truly know what to expect in any given division race around baseball. Sometimes one team will completely blow away the rest of the teams in their division and run away with the first place spot, while other cases see multiple teams within a few games of each other down to the last game of the season. This year is more of the latter.
Of the six divisions, four of them have the second place team within three games of the first place squad (the Royals and Cardinals lead their divisions by a good margin). Furthermore, some of the teams closing in on first — or in some cases leading the division — haven't been doing so well in quite a long time.
The biggest example of that being the Astros and Mets. Each are leading their given divisions at the current moment, and each are making their push towards the playoffs years earlier than many people thought they would.
With the Angels a mere one game back of the Astros and the Nationals a game and a half removed from the Mets, the remaining games of the season should be exciting as we find out which teams can hold on to their hot seasons.
Although not in first place (at least not yet), the Blue Jays are another team that is making things very interesting in the race for first place. The Yankees, somewhat surprisingly, lead the American League East at the moment, but the surging Jays are right on their tail, at just one and a half games back. With the lineup they have, Toronto has the ability to overthrow the Yankees as the season progresses.
The Dodgers are also in the mix as far as exciting division races are concerned, despite still holding a two and a half game lead over the Giants for first. Even so, the Dodgers have been in somewhat of a slump lately (as have the Giants) and things could quickly switch around in the NL West.
No matter what happens over the coming several weeks as teams push towards October, the fact that so many teams that weren't expected to make the playoffs in 2015 are currently on their way to doing just that is exciting. If the season ended today, the Yankees, Royals, Astros, Blue Jays, Angels, Mets, Cardinals, Dodgers, Pirates and Cubs would all be headed to the postseason.
With the Astros not having made the playoffs since 2005, the Mets since 2006, Cubs since 2008 and the Blue Jays since way back in 1993, this could turn out to be the season a lot of droughts could be broken for a lot of teams. That's worth looking forward to.
Alex Rodriguez Homers for 3,000th Career Hit
When Derek Jeter homered for his 3,000th career hit, the moment was magical. When Alex Rodriguez did the same on Friday night, the moment was controversial. The fans cheered, they acknowledged the historic moment, but there was a lingering feeling that things just weren't the same.
Although Rodriguez has played in 63 games since returning from a season long performance enhancing drug suspension in 2014, the air around A-Rod is still rather bad. The majority of baseball fans have vowed to never get over his PED use and don't see the milestone as much to celebrate. While I agree to an extent, A-Rod's 3,000th hit is still something to stop and think about for a moment.
After all, only 28 other players in the history of Major League Baseball have ever recorded 3,000 or more hits in their careers — 28 out of over 18,000 players. In addition, Mike Schmidt and Derek Jeter are the only other players to record their 3,000th hits on a home run. So the hit by A-Rod shouldn't be completely overlooked.
But at the same time, the moment won't ever be seen in the same light as it should have been if A-Rod had remained clean. Rodriguez is creeping up towards 700 home runs, and is one of only five players to record 3,000+ hits and 500+ homers, joining Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Eddie Murray and Rafael Palmeiro. He's one of the all-time greats. Rodriguez should be getting celebrations around baseball, but instead he's getting booed by many of the fans everywhere he goes.
And rightfully so. I don't agree that a player who recorded 3,000 hits clean and one who used PED's throughout their career should be looked at in the same light, even if it is a remarkably rare achievement. But, thankfully, it shouldn't be too long before we get the chance to wholeheartedly celebrate a player reaching 3,000 career hits: Ichiro Suzuki, who is just 114 hits away.
Alex Rodriguez Apologizes to the Fans
If my memory serves me correctly, it's been over a year since I last wrote a blog post focused on Alex Rodriguez. I've discussed him a bit in portions of posts over the past few months about the Yankees and their surrounding team, but nothing just about him. That was mainly because he was out of the baseball picture for that period of time, serving a 162-game suspension for further use of performance enhancing drugs, but quite simply, I didn't care to discuss Rodriguez at all anyway.
That, however, has changed.
With a letter released on Tuesday, A-Rod once again shook up the baseball world. Although it was meant to be a positive thing, not a lot of people are taking it that way. The handwritten letter itself read as follows:
To the Fans,
I take full responsibility for the mistakes that led to my suspension for the 2014 season. I regret that my actions made the situation worse than it needed to be. To Major League Baseball, the Yankees, the Steinbrenner family, the Players Association and you, the fans, I can only say I'm sorry.
I accept the fact that many of you will not believe my apology or anything that I say at this point. I understand why and that's on me. It was gracious of the Yankees to offer me the use of Yankee Stadium for this apology, but I decided that next time I am in Yankee Stadium, I should be in pinstripes doing my job.
I served the longest suspension in the history of the league for PED use. The Commissioner has said the matter is over. The Players Association has said the same. The Yankees have said the next step is to play baseball.
I'm ready to put this chapter behind me and play some ball.
This game has been my single biggest passion since I was a teenager. When I go to Spring Training, I will do everything I can to be the best player and teammate possible, earn a spot on the Yankees and help us win.
The first thing that jumps out at me from the letter is A-Rod's acceptance that baseball fans will likely never forgive him. That's important, in my opinion, because he understands that he doesn't need to put on a show to win back the fans — there's no point. In his own words, he just needs to "play some ball".
However, with that said, I would like to see A-Rod do a little something to give back to the fans; not with the hopes of winning them back, but just because it's the right thing to do after all Rodriguez has done. Take pictures with the fans; sign autographs for those who still want it. Rodriguez needs to do something to show that he actually cares and that the letter wasn't just a formality, even knowing it won't do a lot of good. He owes the fans that much.
But one little apology letter and a lot of fan friendliness won't matter much if A-Rod isn't producing for the team at the plate. In the end, now that they're stuck with him, the Yankees and their fans have to root for Rodriguez to put up good numbers. Not so he can further add to his tainted career stats, but so he can help the Yankees regain a competitive ball club. In my mind, they need some sort of impact from A-Rod for the Yankees to stand a chance at a playoff push.
Without Derek Jeter on the team, like it or not, Rodriguez has become the face of the team. Maybe not the most popular player, but the most well known player on the club. The Yankees are looking to him to help carry a good chunk of the team, even if it does mean that six home runs this season would earn him a 6 million dollar bonus — on top of the huge amount still remaining on his contract — for tying Willie Mays' career mark of 660 home runs (Rodriguez would also earn $6 million each for tying Babe Ruth (714), tying Hank Aaron (755), tying Barry Bonds (762) and surpassing Bonds down the line).
Even so, I'm not expecting him to do much. Rodriguez is now 39 years old. He hit just .244 in 2013 over the course of 44 games leading up to his season long suspension in 2014, and has been going downhill since 2010 — the last year he hit 30+ home runs and/or 100+ RBI's. A-Rod hasn't hit .300 since 2008, and he seemingly won't do hardly anything in 2015.
Supposedly, though, Alex Rodriguez has been working out and is in the best baseball shape he's been in for years. Supposedly, he is sorry for his actions (or at least as sorry as he can bring himself to be). But then again, he was supposedly done for good with performance enhancing drugs back when he came clean in 2009.
I'll leave it at that.
Yankees Setting Up for Contention In 2015?
As everyone is aware, the New York Yankees failed to make the playoffs in Derek Jeter's farewell 2014 season, which was very disappointing to a great number of people. One of the few times in their storied franchise history that the Yankees went consecutive seasons without making the playoffs, things are currently in somewhat of a lull for the Bronx Bombers.
Now that Jeter is officially retired, and with the loss of their 2014 closer, David Robertson, to the White Sox via free agency, many are beginning to wonder just how much of a competitive team the Yankees will be in 2015. After finishing twelve games back of first in the American League East last season, they have a lot of ground to make up, but a division title isn't seemingly as far out of reach as it would appear.
Some of the Yankees offseason pickups last year failed to produce in 2014, due to either injury or a down statistical season. From Masahiro Tanaka to Jacoby Ellsbury to Carlos Beltran to Brian McCann — if those players can get back to their normal selves next season, combined with the already good bullpen of Dellin Betances and recently signed Andrew Miller, things should be better in 2015 for the Yankees.
But that's without any changes whatsoever.
The Yankees, however, have in fact made a few tweaks to their roster that could have a big impact on their season success throughout the 162 game stretch.
Beginning with a trade that saw promising young shortstop Didi Gregorius coming to New York to take over the vacant spot left by Jeter, the Yankees would appear to have a long term "replacement" for the long time Captain.
Though Gregorius won't be able fill the enormous legacy of Derek Jeter — no one could ever do that — he will give them a little added thump in their lineup and defense at the position. Another such player being Chase Headley, who the Yankees signed to a 4-year, 52 million dollar contract on Monday.
There's a slight issue in the signing that everyone is pointing out, however: Headley plays third base. With the Yankees still owing third baseman Alex Rodriguez — who was out all last season due to a PED suspension — over 20 million a season for the next few years, it would be hard to envision them filling A-Rod's place at the hot corner with a bargain priced third baseman. But it appears that the Yankees are doing just that.
Although the Yankees could move Headley around from time to time as the season progresses, it lines up that A-Rod is headed for merely a designated hitter role in 2015. After hitting 31 home runs to go along with 115 RBI's back in 2012, Headley hasn't been that MPV-type of player since, but really impressed the Yankees after coming over from the Padres last season, hitting .262 in the 58 games with them to finish out the year.
If Headley can be solid at third base, and if Rodriguez can provide any sort of offensive production at the plate, the Yankees should be in good shape next year. But, where exactly would they fall if the season began tomorrow?
For me, I see them being like they were last season — a team that could potentially win a lot of games, but has to have a lot of things go right for them to post those type of collective numbers they're capable of.
As stated earlier, if the Yankees can get full, healthy seasons out of Masahiro Tanaka, Brian McCann, etc., their overall production will increase naturally.
Another team in the division that should see their production increase due to several key moves is the Blue Jays. Signing veteran catcher Russell Martin, and trading for All-Star third baseman Josh Donaldson, the Blue Jays could be a very competitive team in 2015. Though I feel they still need another year or two to put everything together, you never know for sure how a team will fare.
Even so, I feel the Red Sox are the team that has done more than enough to put themselves in line to win the American League East division. Signing Pablo Sandoval and Hanley Ramirez a few weeks ago, and adding much needed starting pitching in Justin Masterson, Rick Porcello and Wade Miley, Boston has put together a very solid team after their disastrous 2014 season.
Just the opposite, the Orioles have seen their team taken apart. Losing breakout slugger Nelson Cruz, veteran outfielder Nick Markakis, and dominant reliever Andrew Miller (to the Yankees), Baltimore certainly has some work to do before the start of the season in April. (The Rays also fall into that category, in my opinion.)
So, with such a packed division, seeing that every one of the teams in the east could potentially make big runs towards the division title, it should be fun to see how things play out. If I had to predict things right now, though, I feel confident in saying that the Yankees are setting themselves up to break their postseason drought in the coming year.
Derek Jeter Shines In Final Home Game of Career
The Yankees officially fell out of playoff contention on Wednesday, making it just the first time since the 1992-1993 seasons that they have missed the playoffs in back-to-back years. But at Yankee Stadium on Thursday night, no one cared. There was a far more important reason that 48,613 fans (the most at any game this season) spent thousands upon thousands of dollars to jam pack the ballpark.
The reason was Derek Jeter.
Playing in his first home game in which the Yankees were eliminated from the playoffs, Jeter went into this game knowing it would be his final game in New York of his career.
Even with that on his mind, the .313 career hitter at Yankee stadium was still able to block out his emotions for the most part (something he's been able to do extremely well over his career) and focus on the one thing he's been concerned about for years — winning.
But things didn't start off as planned, as the first two batters of the game went deep to give the Orioles a quick two-run lead. Taking the fans from an electric crowd to a somewhat stunned crowd, you still figured this was far from where things would end. Not in Jeter's final game in the Bronx.
As has happened from stadium to stadium throughout this season, due to his preseason announcement that 2014 would be his final year, Jeter received a standing ovation when he made his way to the plate for his first at-bat of the night. The fans knew this would be one of their final opportunities to thank Jeter for the memories, and they took full advantage of it. But the memory making wasn't done. Not by a long shot.
After working the count a bit, Jeter drove a 3-1 fastball from Kevin Gausman deep to left center, and although everyone immediately thought it was a home run, the ball hit off the wall, allowing Jeter to coast into second with an RBI double — the 544th double, 3,462nd hit and 1,308th RBI of his career. You got the feeling that this was going to be a magical night.
However, the second and third at-bats of the night weren't much to write home about for Jeter. A weak ground ball which resulted in a a fielder's choice and a swinging strikeout, respectively, Jeter appeared to be headed for a memorable but fairly uneventful evening as the game rolled on.
But things would quickly change for The Captain.
Coming up with the bases loaded in a 2-2 ballgame for his fourth time at the plate, Jeter grounded to fellow short stop, J.J. Hardy, who made a wide throw to second base, allowing two runs to score on the throwing error. The score became 4-2, Yankees, with Jeter being responsible for two of the Yankees' four runs. A sacrifice fly by Brian McCann then took the score up to 5-2, which is where things stood when the game moved into the ninth inning.
Before the game even began, many people speculated as to when Derek Jeter would be removed from the game. Many felt it would be with one or two outs in the top of the ninth, but the chance to replace him never occurred. Yankees' closer, David Robertson, came on and gave up a two-run home run to Adam Jones, followed by a solo shot by Steve Pearce, and just like that the game was tied.
But no one seemed to panic as they normally would.
One look at the lineup card showed that Jeter was due up third in the bottom half.
After a single by Jose Pirela to lead off the bottom of the ninth (Pirela was promptly replaced by a pinch runner), Brett Gardner bunted the runner to second, bringing up Derek Jeter in a tie ballgame with one out.
Wasting no time, Jeter took the first pitch of the at-bat the opposite way into right field, bringing around the game winning run — the first walk off hit for Jeter since June of 2007. With everything having to go exactly right, there's absolutely no better way the game could've ended for Derek Jeter.
He's a legend — simple as that.
Going down as one of the best short stops in history — right up there with Ozzie Smith, Cal Ripken Jr., etc. — Derek Jeter will be remembered forever.
Not only as one of the greatest to ever play his position, not only as one of the greatest Yankees to play the game, but also as one of the greatest human beings to play the sport. Putting together a near spotless career on and off the field, few will argue that you will never see a player quite like Derek Jeter ever again.
And the fans let Jeter know it when he walked back onto the field after getting the game winning hit. Joined by fellow Yankees legends, Mariano Rivera, Joe Torre, Jorge Posada and Andy Pettitte, among others, Jeter took the time to thank the fans for their support, tipping his cap before taking off down the dugout steps and through the tunnel for the final time of his career.
Playing his entire twenty year career for the Yankees, the first ballot Hall of Famer didn't have a whole lot to say after the game. As has been the case over his career, Jeter never says more than he wants to say. But he did let his emotions show through a bit, tearing up a bit at times. When asked what he would miss most, Jeter responded, "Everything. But most importantly, I'm going to miss the fans. They're what made this special".
The 1996 American League Rookie of the Year, fourteen time All-Star, five time World Series champion, and sixth place player on the all-time hit list accomplished nearly everything he ever dreamed of doing on a baseball field. Growing up, all Jeter ever dreamed of was being the short stop for the Yankees, and he was able to do just that. Dreams really do come true.
With that being his ultimate goal, Jeter made it official after the game that he will never again play short stop, saying he's going to play in the final three games of the year up in Boston out of respect for the fans, but merely as the designated hitter.
As such, Jeter will undoubtedly get a standing ovation each and every time he steps to the plate up at Fenway park until his final at-bat occurs on Sunday. For a New York Yankee to get that type of respect from rival Red Sox fans, you know he had a truly remarkable career. As he always does, Derek Jeter put it best on Thursday night, simply stating, "I've lived the dream."
Several Teams On the Outside Looking In
Inevitably each and every Major League Baseball season a handful of teams fail to live up to expectations placed on them at the start of the year. Whether a team simply doesn't play to the best of their ability, or if it's injuries that keeps them from performing well, a few teams always end up short of where they were projected to finish the year.
The Diamondback's, Rangers, Red Sox and Rays are all examples of that from the 2014 season. People from all over the baseball world selected the majority of those teams to make solid pushes at the postseason, but all of them but the Rays are going to finish dead last in their division (the Rays will finish fourth in the American League east). Truly disappointing endings for what were supposed to be promising teams.
On the flip side, a few teams that no one saw coming always go on a major run in any given year, passing big time teams, and leaving many people scratching their heads as to how they're doing it.
But while the winning streaks of underdog teams are always exciting, a lot of those type of teams can't keep up their torrid runs for an extended period of time, subsequently falling back down to their normal levels, and missing the playoffs.
For the Marlins, Brewers and Yankees, they were those type of teams this season. No one saw them doing much of anything with the rosters they had going into the season, but they each went on runs at one point or another this season, proving a bunch of people wrong. None more so than the Brewers, who ended up being one of the biggest rise and fall team in years.
After leading the National League central division for 150 days of the season, the Brewers went into a major, major slump. A slump that caused them to plummet through the standings, currently sitting five games back of the second Wild Card spot. With under a one percent chance of making the postseason according to MLB.com, the Brewers' year is all but over, despite their great efforts.
The Indians and Mariners are a couple of teams that are still in the race for the second Wild Card but are likely going to miss out, even after great runs this year gave their fans something to get excited about. Given under an eight percent chance of the postseason, it's going to take an unprecedented string of events for either of them to make it in. But as has been proven time and time again with baseball, anything can happen.
Yankees Blow Win & Chances of Making the Playoffs
Any shot the New York Yankees had of making the playoffs this season — however small a shot it may have been — was all but officially eliminated on Sunday night at Camden Yards. A blown save by their recently "overused" closer, David Robertson, resulted in a walk off hit by former Yankee, Kelly Johnson, trimming the Orioles' magic number to win the division down to three, and the Yankees' elimination number down to a mere two.
While the Yankees are technically still in the race, with their Wild Card elimination number standing at ten games, it's going to take an unprecedented run like baseball has never seen before for the Yankees to pull off the near miracle of making the postseason.
Just 2.5 games back of the second Wild Card as recently as August 27th, things have simply gone downhill for them ever since.
Now five games back of the second Wild Card, which the Royals currently hold, the Yankees surely aren't going to have an easy finish to the season that would allow for a possible push at the Wild Card, especially with the struggling team they possess.
Playing all American League east teams for their remaining fourteen games — Rays for three, Blue Jays for four, Orioles for four, and Red Sox for three — it's still going to be fun to watch how they finish out 2014.
It certainly would have been nice for Derek Jeter to be able to play in one final playoff run, having won five career World Championships, but it's unfortunately not the way his career will end. With the Yankees losing three of four games in their recent series against the Orioles, the Bronx Bombers currently hold just over a one percent chance of making the playoffs, according to MLB.com; further securing the fact that Jeter's amazing career will come to an end September 28th at Fenway Park, and not sometime in October as was once hoped.
But while the Yankees aren't seemingly playoff bound, and although they're somewhat of an overall disaster, and overlooking the subpar numbers that Derek Jeter has been posting this season, make sure you take the time to watch a Yankees game or two before the end of the season rolls around. The Yankees will be back in 2015, likely stronger than ever, with some offseason additions that will once again make them competitive in the division. But the one thing they're guaranteed not to have is Derek Jeter.
That's one element of the Yankees that you need to enjoy right now.
There's not much more time left to do so.
Heading into the Final Month of the 2014 MLB Season
It's hard to believe, but the 2014 Major League Baseball regular season is almost over. Today marks exactly one month until the final games of the season, on September 28th, and teams are making their final push towards the postseason, with every player doing their best to finish out the season strong. With all of this going on, I thought I'd post an entry on the five main storylines I plan to watch throughout the final stretch.
200 Hits for Jose Altuve
Leading all of baseball in batting average (.332) and with 14 more hits on the season than the player with the second most hits, Jose Altuve is well on his way to recording his first 200 hit season of his career. With 181 hits this year, Altuve should easily make it to what has become a somewhat rare achievement.
The last time any player recorded 200 or more hits in a season was back in 2009, when Derek Jeter, Ichiro Suzuki, Ryan Braun and Robinson Cano all did it. For Altuve, he's set to become only the second Astros player to ever record 200 hits in a season, with Craig Biggio, doing so in 1998, being the other.
Though Altuve is too far back to break Ichiro Suzuki's all-time hit record for a season of 262 hits, it should be interesting to see how many hits he can amass in this final month.
Race for Stolen Base Lead
After Billy Hamilton set the all-time single season stolen base record for the minor leagues back in 2012, stealing 155 bases that year, many people began to proclaim Hamilton as the next Rickey Henderson. Those are some lofty expectations that Hamilton hasn't quite been able to live up to, with Hamilton sitting on 50 stolen bases (the youngest Reds player to ever reach 50 stolen bases in a season) for the season and Rickey Henderson having stolen 100 bags in his first full year.
Hamilton currently sits eight stolen bases back of the leader, Dee Gordon, so he definitely has some work to do if he wants to finish out the year on top. But despite not running away in the stolen bases category like many people initially believed he would, Hamilton has done a phenomenal job of making adjustments this year. After a horrid start to the season, Hamilton has really turned things around, and if he can continue to get on base, he has the potential to rack up a ton of stolen bases in a short period of time.
How Jose Abreu Finishes the Year
Proving to have been one of the most valuable offseason pickups, Jose Abreu is posting one of the best rookie seasons we've seen in years.
Currently sitting on 33 home runs (he has a good shot at winning the home run crown, tied with Chris Carter and Giancarlo Stanton, and one back of only Nelson Cruz), 96 RBI's and a .312 batting average, Abreu has done nothing but produce all season long, leading many to believe that he has the American League Rookie of the Year award completely locked up.
At one point in time, there was a good chance that Abreu would break the all-time home run record for a rookie, set by Mark McGwire back in 1987, when he blasted 49 home runs. But Abreu will inevitably come up just short of that mark, due in part to a brief stint on the disabled list earlier in the year.
Even so, Abeu will likely wind up with around 40 home runs for the season, and will be a major asset for the White Sox for years to come.
American League West Division
It can't much tighter than it currently is in the American League West, as the Angels lead the Athletics by a mere game in the standings. With just a few more weeks of games, this is undoubtedly the division to watch most closely throughout the rest of the season. However, the wild card spots are looking to be just as intriguing, in both leagues.
On the American League side of things, whichever team doesn't win the AL west between the Angels and A's will end up taking the first wild card spot, but the Mariners, Tigers and even the Yankees are going to be fighting hard for that second wild card spot. In the National League, the Cardinals hold a slight lead for the first wild card, but the second one is anyone's for the taking between the Giants, Braves, Pirates and Marlins, if they can keep pace through the month of September. It should be interesting to see which teams get the job done.
Derek Jeter's Final Month of His Career
After having a disastrous 2013 season, in which he was injured and posted measly stats, Derek Jeter announced at the beginning of the year that 2014 would be his last. Therefore, all eyes are on Jeter to see how he performs in the final month of his farewell season. So far, Jeter isn't doing terrible, but he's not doing all that great either, batting just .267 with 3 home runs and 36 RBI's.
But although Jeter isn't producing all that much, he will still go down as one of baseball's all-time greats, with over 3,400 career hits.
The one thing on everyone's mind, however, is whether or not the Yankees can make the playoffs to give Jeter the chance at a sixth career World Series title.
Sitting 2.5 games back of the second wild card, there's still a shot that the Yankees make it in, but it's going to take a good amount of terrific play for them to reach the postseason.

Casey Coleman CIOGeneral Services Administration
The work: Leading development and execution of GSA's Drive to the Cloud strategy.
The impact: Thanks to Coleman's efforts, GSA was one of the first large government agencies to implement cloud-based applications for e-mail, collaboration and productivity.
The nuts and bolts: Coleman's vision, business case development and skill at getting executive buy-in facilitated the agency's move to cloud-based capabilities with Google Apps for Government and Salesforce.com as the foundation. The security controls used in GSA's deployment of those tools have been applied to the governmentwide program for cloud security, and her approach has served as a model for federal, state and local agencies as they pursue cloud technology and other IT cost-reduction efforts.

Bio and Links
Genealogy has been a serious business for me since I was in grade school. I documented and discovered that my 3rd great-grandmother Laura A. (WHITMARSH) MILLER's parents Horace WHITMARSH & Clarissa Mitchell (WARNER) WHITMARSH were both Mayflower descendants. I tracked the surname GILMORE back to Capt. James GILMORE of Rockbridge Co, Virginia. (Thanks to the late Shelby GILMORE for his ground breaking research in the 1960-70s.) Turns out that he was present at the Battle of Yorktown where poor Cornwallis discovered that yes he would be famous but no not for something to land him in to #10 Downing Street. Other discoveres include proving Mennonite ancestry via the BINKLEY orig BINGELLI and STAUFFER lines.
Corrections & Questions: Use the S.A.C. for corrections and please differentiate facts from from suppositions and might be for the benefit of other researchers. Also if it's a question that I don't have an instant answer for that requires further research remember that the facts are the foundation for the solution. Correction and question e-mails should NOT be deletion requests as those requesting deletions are considered a nuisance and are treated accordingly. Include your e-mail address in the S.A.C. and you must have your findagrave.com messages visible to the public. If you are requesting links include the findagrave code number after each person.
Transfers: Most of the the virtual graves I manage are blood kin in some way. I don't transfer direct ancestors or very close relatives of my grandparents. For others that can happen if you are more closely related than me.
First: leave some kind of flower on the virtual grave in question. Use the correct e-mail (NOT a message on my profile) that includes your e-mail address (required) and tell me how you are related. If the person is someone I'm not related to I usually transfer these type immediately. (Unless you ask if you have other relatives buried in the same cemetery. In that case I might need that virtual grave as a reference point for easy access because non-relatives will not be in my internal database.) I probably know very little about a non-relative so someone who is a relative should manage them.
Second: If I am related but you are a closer relative to that person --- I will look at my internal database --- I may have questions for you! I may have active research that I conducting on that person and/or his/her near relatives. So just because I don't transfer a relative immediately doesn't mean no if I don't say no. Before I transfer a relative I back check my internal database to make sure what I have there matches findagrave. If you send in the "correction" additional facts, crosslinks to parents or other updated data I need to fix BOTH areas. I have also been known to transfer a group of graves for the same family. If I am doing a group transfer I also back check each cemetery to see if there are other relatives of the person who don't have virtual memorials but should. All of this takes TIME which is a precious commodity and when it is done it should be done right the first time.
The type of transfers I absolutely will not do are any type of these three:
#1 Any of my direct ancestors and other close relatives of my grandparents.
#2 To people who are bulk collectors of virtual graves that do not transfer outside of guidelines.
#3 To people who have harassed others on findagrave.
These are direct line known surnames to my 7th great-grandparents. Note that on those from Norge I am trying to use "farm" names because surnames were not generally required by law till about 1900 in Norge. American & Canadian states/provinces are abbreviated in all caps. Other countries are spelled out preferably in that nation's first language. When you see a surname repeated that is because it is actually more than one unrelated surnames with the the surname coming closest to this current time listed first. Several of these families can be accessed through my multiple virtual cemeteries. Most of these, but not all, are public:
Missouri: Mercer County, Lindley and Harrison Twsps and also the neighboring townships of Clay Twsp in Harrison County and Hamilton Twsp in Decatur Co, Iowa: I do have a particular interest and expertise in this area as four of my great-grandparents were from this area. If you need help in this area ask. What I don't know I most likely know who you need to talk to.
Maine: Hancock County, Swan's Island: Make sure you see http://www.swansisland.org/cemetery.htm for any virtual grave in this area that I either entered and/or left a candle on. This is the source for all of the information, including links to parents, gravestone photographs or documentation of the lack of one. If the person in question had the surname JOYCE or married one then they either were themselves or married a direct descendant of the SAMSON, STANDISH, and ALDEN families.

Fulton County (OH) county seat
As far as I know, Fayette was never the county seat of Fulton County -- the county seat of Fulton County (OH) has always been Wauseon, OH. At least that's where the County Courthouse is and has been for several decades. If SARAH WHALEY COTTRELL was buried in the Fulton County Seat, she would not be found in Pleasant View Union Cemetery in Fayette, Ohio, USA. There are a fair number of Whaleys (all related, I think) buried in Pleasant View Union, so it would not be surprising to find her interred there. -- Linda L. Pitford - firstname.lastname@example.com
P.S. Sarah Whaley Cottrell was an older sister to
my Great-Grandfather, Franklin Curtis Whaley

Treerpgmo, Your request can only be filled if you contact the cemeteries main # 510-658-2588, as this is a very large cemetery over 500,000 souls resting on over 150 acres of land. You will need to give them the correct first and last name and year of death. They in turn should provide you with the Lot#, Plot# and Grave#. Then reply to my message with this info. and I will go out there and see what I can find.

Sara Jane "Sadie" Atwood Trumble 67714156
Thanks for the edits regarding Warwick Cem. Warwick Mass. You had me make Sadie's birthplace Warwick, Mass. I was able to find her husband William C. Trumble on find-a-grave. So I corrected the spelling of her name which I had as Trumbull. I used SSDI to find her birth date and death date. It's not totally proven or great genealogy but I adjusted her dates to match the SSDI. I did look her up in the 1900 US census and it did give June 1882 for her birth. I could not find her in the Warwick birth records.
I tried finding an obituary for Marjorie Whipple 21035416 to sort out her 3 marriages that you sent me a suggestion for. But could not find one. I tried to find Fay Whipple's as well and failed. But I searched for a fay whipple in Massachusetts and he is the only one that popped up. Ever. So I liked Marjorie to the Fay in Orange, Mass.
Thanks for the help. I need all I can get.

Richard WARREN of the Mayflower
Thank you. I agree that the official Find A Grave memorial should be the only one. The duplicate says the original one has the wrong cemetery. But I don't believe there is any proof that the duplicate has it correct either. "Coles Hill" appears to have been recognized by the Mayflower Society as icluding the mass grave for the 50 who died the first year (1620-1621). "Burial Hill" is believed to have been used beginning in the 1640's But I think that is an estimate. And it's not clear where people were buried in the interim. I have seen nothing establishing where Richard Warren was buried in approximately 1628.

Andrew Warner
You are shown as the co-author of the Find A Grave biographical sketch of my ancestor Andrew Warner. It states that Gen.George McClellan is identified as a descendant of Andrew. This interests me a great deal and I was wondering if you can point me to a reference that lays out the line of descent from Andrew Warner Sr. to Gen. McClellan?
Thank you so very much for any help you can provide.

Henry Best, Memoria l# 63506653
Hello. Henry Best (1553-1638/28) is a 9th great grandfather to me. I'm wondering if you could share the source for the info in his bio on Find A Grave that says "He wrote his will 9d 3m 1627 at Ovenden which was probated in 8m 1628". On Ancestry "UK, Extracted Probate Records, 1269-1975" from Ancestry cites the death of a Henry Best as 1623. There is also a reference in "West Yorkshire, England, Church of England Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1512-1812" to a Henry Best being buried in Halifax, Yorkshire in Sept 1623.

Volume 108, Issue 7, 01 October 2010
Since its discovery in less than five years ago, graphene has become one of the hottest frontiers in materials science and condensed matter physics, as evidenced by the exponential increase in number of publications in this field. Several reviews have already been published on this topic, focusing on single and multilayer graphene sheets. Here, we review the recent progresses in this field by extending the scope to various types of two-dimensional carbonnanostructures including graphene and free-standing carbon nanowalls/nanosheets. After a brief overview of the electronic properties of graphene, we focus on the synthesis, characterization and potential applications of these carbonnanostructures.
Coexistence of unipolar and bipolar resistive switching characteristics in ZnO thin films108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3489882View Description Hide Description
This paper reports the coexistence of unipolar and bipolar resistive switching (BRS) in an Ag/ZnO/Pt structure fabricated by sputteringdeposition at room temperature. The structure shows reproducible and stable unipolar resistive switching after electroforming with high compliance current , regardless of the applied voltage polarity. With low at electroforming, BRS was also observed; this phenomenon depended on the voltage polarity. Both states were stable and reproducible over 100 cycles. The switching mode was changed with adjusting but the transition was irreversible. Based on the results, switching mechanism based on filament theory is proposed to explain both resistive switching.
Active-oxidation of Si as the source of vapor-phase reactants in the growth of nanowires on Si108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3488882View Description Hide Description
Gold-coated silicon wafers were annealed at temperatures in the range from in a ambient containing a low (3–10 ppm) residual concentration. A dense network of amorphous silicananowires was only observed on samples annealed at temperatures above and was correlated with the development of faceted etch-pits in the Si surface. Comparison with known thermodynamic data for the oxidation of Si and vapor-pressures of reactants shows that nanowire growth is mediated by a vapor-liquid-solid mechanism in which the dominant vapor-phase source of reactants is SiO produced by the active oxidation of Si.
DNA detection using a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor ring oscillator circuit108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3483947View Description Hide Description
A DNA detection scheme has been implemented that utilizes a simple complementary metal-oxide semiconductor(CMOS) ring oscillator circuit. The detector oscillates at a fundamental frequency when using a nonhybridized single-strand DNA probe layer. Upon hybridization with a complimentary DNA strand, the oscillator output exhibits an increased frequency shift, indicating a genetic match. The probe assembly consists of a p-GaAs substrate containing a pulsed laser deposition-applied barium strontium titanate layer and an overlying sodium dodecyl sulfate lipid layer that serves to anchor a functionalized oligonucleotide probe. The oscillator circuit consisting of cascaded discrete complimentary n-channel and p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors was implemented using passive components arranged in a T-network to provide the associated fundamental time constant.
Thermally induced ultrasound emission from printable semiconductor nanoparticles108(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3483946View Description Hide Description
The thermally induced ultrasound emissions from printable semiconductor nanoparticles produced by the application of input pulses are demonstrated on different substrates. Printing processes that use dispersion liquids containing nanoparticles make it possible to generate ultrasoundwaves on flexible graphite sheets. We argue that the emission efficiency, which is the ratio of the ultrasoundpressure to the input power, is greatly affected by the thermal effusivity of the nanoparticles, especially for the shell material in core-shell structured nanoparticles.

On a narrow side street facing Central Station, this property is adjacent to the vastly superior Hotel Gallia. Designed for busy business travelers, this well-run, classic contemporary hotel is a dependable midrange pick beside the train station. The garish structure looks somewhat grand with its multicolored marble exterior (postmodern Moroccan, perhaps) and colorfully decorated contemporary interiors. Its rates put it into competition with the Carlyle Berera and Hotel Tocq, both of which... Subscribe to travel42 to read the full review » Copyright (c) 2016 Northstar Travel Media, LLC. travel42.

The good guys got played pretty well in this one - I liked this one and the prequel a lot, though they're very different stories - the River Kingdoms 'wildness' and the resulting batch of frontier heroes was done nicely. Their just isn't the economy to support a big magic item bin - though I always like Golarion's approach: magic's there, it's dangerous, there's a lot of kinds, and it cheats. :)
I liked Drelm's parts - he's not the smartest guy, and that comes through, but he's very, very forthright, and that's worth a lot too. Elyana was really wrong about Drelm in the first book, but at least she had the chance to realize it, and I like their relationship here.
The beast in question is just nasty, and the scheme it's part of I thought was well thought out.

Updating Gravity Forms kills this plugin and wp-admin.
Be sure to disable +Stripe before upgrading Gravity Forms.
(see also: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-gravity-forms-update-kills-this-plugin )
I just experienced the same as described in the link above - no php errors in my case, just a white screen when trying to access wp-admin - I'd argue that this is far worse than getting php errors. This occurred after upgrading Gforms to version 1.8
I rolled everything back to its state prior to the upgrade, disabled +Stripe
It would be great if the developers would include this info prominently somewhere; The readme and the +stripe settings page would be a great start.
It's not a huge deal to deactivate +stripe prior to upgrading gforms, but I'm kind of nervous about using this on a production site and turning it over to a client.

- Japanese
The effects of the genotype of alcohol dehydrogenase-2 (ADH2) and mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) on drinking behavior were investigated in a population of 451 Japanese. Although the ALDH2*2 allele had a significant inhibitory effect on alcohol consumption, hence on drinking problems, the apparent association was not confirmed between ADH2 genotype and overall drinking patterns for either males or females. However, the frequency of the ADH2*2 allele was significantly lower in male Japanese classified as alcoholic on the basis of the Kurihama Alcoholism Screening Test than in nonalcoholic males. These results corroborate a previous study that revealed a significantly lower ADH2*2 allele frequency in hospitalized Japanese alcoholics than in the general population. Together, these studies suggest that the ALDH2*2 allele has an inhibitory effect on drinking behavior, irrespective of the level of alcohol consumption, whereas the effect of the ADH2 polymorphism only becomes apparent in individuals with higher alcohol consumption, such as alcoholics.

Re: the what fights did you watch today\scorecard thread.
Robert Guerrero UD12 Andre Berto
You got to love Guerrero. Four years ago the guy was a featherweight. He's just kept travelling north in search of money and the career defining fights he feels he deserves - he's calling for Mayweather and Pacquiao for years, you know he means it, and he's taken a step nearer with a FOTY the year candidate fought on HBO last night.
Guerrero showed real depth in his abilities going all the way inside and keeping Berto under control with grappling and punching. There was some crying about excessive holding from Guerrero on HBO and it's being echoed by some next door, but that's BS, I think. Both were holding. Berto, aware that his speed advantage was being entirely nullified also wanted to make sure that his man wasn't working free with both his hands. They were both holding. The post-fight squabble between the two in the ring was a shame to see.
They both also had serious eye injuries, Berto almost totally unable to see out of either eye, Guerrero struggling in the second half of the fight with his right eye which was also almost shut by fight's end. Didn't stop them both delivering for real.
Berto's uppercut inside was a thing of real beauty, but he was always going to b struggling to close the gap after being knocked down once in the first and once in the second and the nature of the fight was such that Guerrero was able to take advantage of his higher workrate to nick most rounds inspite of Berto's often more eye-catching shots.
Lots of punches thrown, a great fight.
All three offical cards were 116-110, mine read the same way.
Berto: 4,6,9,11
Guerrero: 1,2,3,5,7,8,12

"Sack Lunch" and a side of pigsauce for Aiden! Porn pro Aurora Snow sure can bang and blow! Evie D enjoys a wild hogride! Slutty Avy just loves that black cock gravy! No stranger to "Schween" ... see Katie's 1st scene! Dick lover Rachel gets pussy-packed and a mouthful of Mike spuzz!
The action in Jerk Off Material 3 is as utilitarian as its title—no frills and straight to the point. The cast, for the most part, is unremarkable, with the exception of the exceptionally cute Katie St. Ives in what is touted as her very first scene. With her short brown hair, blue eyes and pert natural tits, Katie delivers the goods with an exuberance that can only be described as youthful. After two—count 'em, two—POV scenes, Katie takes on three dudes who, after prolonged banging, successfully glaze her smiling mug (with one extra pop thrown in for good measure).
The formula—POV poking, then straight up porn shooting—continues throughout the rest of the two-disc set, but none of the scenes are quite as engaging as the first—though Aurora Snow taking it up the pooper from Sean Michael has its awe-inspiring moments. The extras are equally as Spartan as the movie itself. All in all, the movie lives up to its name, which is a pretty pedestrian promise when it comes to porn, so no harm done.

You can retire that fussy bedskirt with this tidy technique for "upholstering" a box spring or a bed foundation. Just gather up your supplies: a few yards of fabric; upholstery tape; scissors; a staple gun; and, if your box spring doesn't have a wood frame on top, upholstery twist pins (available at fabric stores). Then follow our step-by-step.
