The Mets tried to pass backup catcher Chris Coste through waivers before assigning him to Buffalo, where he was supposed to mentor Josh Thole.
As with most Mets plans, it didn’t work out. Coste got claimed. He will still be playing most of his games in upstate New York, but Coste will be going to [...]

White Sox at Rangers
Surprise, Ariz.
8:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
Had heard great things about the Rangers’ facility. But in retrospect, I spent a lot of hours graphing and really didn’t get much. However, every stud Rangers’ minor leaguer walked right by me, including Font, Boscan, Smoak, and many many more. If I had seen Smoak in [...]

After a week off, the Blogger came back rejuvenated and locked in. He turned
in his second perfect card and defeated all entries with a score of 11. After
the week layoff the number of entries dipped quite a bit and we need to get the numbers
back up or the Blogger will be forced to go out on top and retire the game.
Last week’s winning picks are posted below and this week’s picks will be posted Monday
p.m. Good luck and spread the word on the contest before there is no more contest.
THIS MEANS YOU, SEE BELOW FOR INSTRUCTIONS.
Copy and paste our link and send it to your friends on Facebook, Twitter and
anywhere else so they can be a part of the action and we can boost our total list
of contestants, http://blog.tuffstuff.com/7thinning/
With the number of weekly participants slipping a bit the last few weeks I’m making
a call to action to all of our regulars to do some recruiting. While more people
means more work for the Blogger and more people for the Blogger to go up against,
I welcome the challenge and offer this challenge to you: If each player can recruit
10 new players and we can boost the total to 200 or more, I’ll triple the weekly prize.
So spread the word about the contest to all your co-workers, family and friends
and meet that goal and boost the prize.
Copy and paste our link and send it to your friends so they can be a part of the action, http://blog.tuffstuff.com/7thinning/
This week’s winners are posted below so check to see how you fared against
the field.
While I enjoy giving prizes to several people vs. having just one weekly winner, from
this point forward contestants will be asked to provide a tie-breaker on the week’s
last game so we narrow our winner down to one. Contestants will now b
e
asked to predict the total score from the last game on the list and the closest to
the actual score will be deemed the winner). I’ll also require contestants
to post their e-mail address with their picks so I can track down the winners
easier.
For those unfamiliar with the Beat the Blogger contest, the idea is simple.
The Blogger posts 10 matchups each week and then selects his choices for the winners
of those matchups. Contestants enter the Beat the Blogger contest by clicking on
the “Comment” section below the post with the matchups and then select their
own 10 winners. You can also designate one of your picks as a “Doubler” and
you will receive an extra point if you’re correct so don’t forget to designate your
“Doubler” pick and increase your chances of winning. If you Beat The Blogger’s
total and post the high score for the week, you win. The regular weekly
prize is an authentic signed 8-by-10 color photo of stars such as LaDainian
Tomlinson, Drew Brees, Marshall Faulk, Santonio Holmes, Gale Sayers, Catfish
Hunter and many more. From time to time, the Blogger will sweeten the pot for
the weekly contest so look for special prize packages.
