On Today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast, I look at Yasiel Puig and I realize there is no reasonable argument to NOT have him on the All Star team.
Plus I compare Manny Ramirez to Don Draper. Trust me, it works.
Andrew McCutchen, Matt Garza, Max Scherzer and Chris Davis all owned baseball on July 3, 2013.

Sully Baseball Daily Podcast July 3, 2013
On Today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast, I took a journey… from Cisco and San Jose (where the A’s SHOULD be playing) through Fremont (one of the potential homes of the A’s) right to the parking lot of the O.co Coliseum.
Along the way I talk about why it would have been better if the A’s had stayed in Philadelphia and the Phillies had moved and all the potential landing spots of this exciting if troubled franchise.
Yasel Puig, Kendrys Morales, John Lackey and for his second no hitter, Homer Bailey all owned baseball on July 2, 2013.

John Adams wrote to his wife Abigail that “the Second Day of July 1776 will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. . . . It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires, and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.”
He was close.
But today on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast we celebrate July 2nd by remembering Warren Spahn’s duel with Juan Marichal, say happy birthday to Jose Canseco and remember Peanuts Lowrey, a man with an unusual life story.

It is now July and it is time to take stock on where teams stand at the midway point.
Meanwhile a 10 year old made a comment during the Yankees – Orioles game that makes me ask some hard questions about PEDs today.
That and more on this episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

Today on the Sully Baseball Daily Podcast, I look at the Pirates and wonder if THIS year they can get over .500. They are only 33 wins from that. They collapsed in 2011 and 2012. Maybe they will avoid a collapse this year.
Miguel Cabrera, Bartolo Colon, Delmon Young and hard luck Matt Harvey all owned baseball on June 28, 2013.

Miguel Cabrera was a triple short of the Cycle. He went 4-4 with a single, a double and a pair of homers. He drove in three and scored three as the Tigers beat the Rays, 6-3.
Delmon Young went 3-6 with a double and six runs batted in, leading the Phillies to a 16-1 embarrassment of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Bartolo Colon threw 8 innings of 1 run, 6 hit ball as the A’s beat the Mighty Cardinals handily, 6-1.
And Matt Harvey may have been ripped off by the Mets bullpen, but he was sensational. He threw perfect game into the 5th inning. He finished the game letting up just 3 hits, 1 run and no walks in 7 innings, striking out 11 along the way. The Mets relievers surrendered the lead and ultimately the game to the Nationals, 6-4. That doesn’t make Harvey’s start any less noteworthy.

Today on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast, I found myself in a pickle.
I couldn’t determine which American League pitcher owned baseball.
Was it R. A. Dickey and his 2 hit shutout?
Or A. J. Griffin and HIS 2 hit shutout.
I spent the episode trying to make a decision.
The result?
Give it a listen!
