The man is a baseball god. A short, chubby god, but a god nonetheless 
Yeah but you have to make the playoffs first. Once the playoffs start the Giants big three is nice.
It's hard for me to dislike Colon.
The best part of that was Gary Cohen call. When he hit it I said to my wife, no fucking way. I knew it was a homerun as soon as he hit it.
Fuck the DH.
Even when it's large marge Colon?
^ Yes, even if.
Somewhere Buster Olney is preparing a 3,000 word treatise on how the juiced ball is ruining the sport.
Bartolo Colon is co-player of the week with Ben Zobrist because of his two wins in the week.
You can't help but wonder if the homer pushed him over the top.

Apparently, Strasburg has signed a 7 year ($175M) extension, so maybe he's not so smart, or just greedy.
Story
He deserves to stand alone. 42 years old, the body of a weekend softball league benchwarmer, yet he wins two games AND hits a dinger? Come on man! Give that guy the MVP.
7/175 in a walk year where you're going to be the only marquee FA pitcher coming off a year where Greinke got 6/206 and Price got 7/217 seems like either a hell of a hometown discount (or the dude just really loves Ben's Chili Bowl or something), or fear that your arm is going to fall off by August. Or, since it's Dusty, July.
Also, the Marlins dingered and lost the HR call because the trailing runner passed the lead runner on the bases.
So the Red Sox' bats have come alive....
I find it extremely unsettling that at the end of this season, Vin Scully will retire, and Hawk Harrelson won't. 
I could watch this over and over.
