Suns-

The Suns are out in the NBA Playoffs yet again. This time they got to the Western Conference Finals and were beat by the dreaded Lakers in 6 games. The Suns did have a sweet sweep of the Spurs in the semifinals. It is again sad to see the Suns yet again fail to win a championship. They always seem so close but yet so far away. It is frustrating to see teams like the Lakers get Gasol from Memphis for nothing really. They were obviously outmatched by the Lakers and need to find someway to fix that. But there is a chance that STAT will leave PHX for nothing. It would make it difficult to get back to the Western Conference Finals without him. No matter how good Nash is, he needs Amare back to even have a chance. They also need another big body that can match up against the Lakers big men. I really don't know who they could get with how little they have to spend on free agency. Maybe somehow they can trade for a early first round pick and draft a Cole Aldrich. I don't see it happening but that is about the only thing I could see as a possibility to bulking up the Suns a little but.

28 out Perfect Game

Armando Galarraga of the Detriot Tigers pitched a perfect game yesterday. Almost. He was one out away when the umpire blew the obvious call. MLB of course did not change the call later. I think it is a shame that MLB did not overturn the call. I personally hate instant replay but I see it has benefits. That plus every other sport uses it. If nothing else the commish of baseball should overturn the call giving him a perfect game.

Ken Griffey Jr.

He announced his retirement yesterday. What a tremendous baseball player. It is a shame that he had so many injuries in his career. He was a tremendous player that was a complete 5 star athlete. He did everything. It will be impossible to replace a player like that in MLB.

Dbacks

Wow what a bad team. And really it isnt that bad, ot just has a horrible bullpen. They have a decent team that should be competitve if the bullpen wouldnt allow so many runs. Its starting pitching is one of the best around and if they could get another player like an Adam Dunn or someone else like him with some pop in his bat I think the offense would be a little better. Balls right now are flying out of Chase field. Although there are a number of players in AZ that did not live up to their potential. Stephen Drew, Connor Jackson, Chad Tracy, etc The list really goes on and on. Well, at least the MLB Draft is coming up on Monday and the Dbacks have the number 6 pick. It they keep playing like this they may have one or two next year. Also, you should check out their June schedule. It is rough it includes the AL East of Boston, NY Yankees, and Tampa Bay. I bet they will be far behind in the standing come July.
