Rasmus, 25, was the centrepiece of a three-team, 11-player trade that liberated him from a troublesome period in St. Louis. At the time, he was batting .246 with a .332 on-base percentage, 11 homers and 40 RBIs.
His line with the Jays included a .191 average, .223 on-base mark, two homers and 13 RBIs in 30 games. In his previous 11 games, he is three-for-40 with 17 strikeouts.

Michele Catalano on American McCarver:
Last night was a reminder of why we love the game. There are times as fans when we get frustrated and annoyed with shoddy ownership, millionaire crybabies, Bud Selig and off-field antics, but the incredibly dramatic finish to the 2011 regular season was a thing to behold. For a while, it didn’t matter who you were rooting for or against. Anyone who is a baseball fan knew they were witnessing the greatest finish to a season ever and we reveled in it. That drama, that intensity, the pure joy in Tampa and the despair in Boston — that whole emotional roller coaster is what makes being a sports fan both an awesome and a nerve wracking experience.
Last night’s baseball was amazing. I watched the Phils play the Braves for most of the night (after my Cards went up by a ton) and enjoyed every minute of it. These were two very exciting wild card races and one unbelievable September.
I love this sport and I’m not looking forward to the long winter (except for getting hockey back—that’s cool).
Pay what you want. Frozen Synapse normally costs $25, but we’re letting you set the price! The Frozen Synapse soundtrack is also included with your purchase (normally $6). Plus, if you pay more than the average price, we’ll throw in the entire Humble Frozenbyte Bundle — a $45 value!
All of the games work great on Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Go buy this now. Frozen Synapse is a fantastic game that I’ve written about before.
Lutz returned to the table and Bear proceeded to pitch her on the painting hanging directly behind her head.
“Yeah, Cherie, so, we’ve had this idea for a long time, umm, a marionette, and you use your hands like this, and you’re a skeleton cowboy,” Bear said. “I was lying my ass off, and Mike was just sitting there backing me up.”
Microsoft loved it, and work on what would come to be known as The Gunstringer began almost immediately.
An awesome story about how perhaps one of the best Kinect games yet came to be. Twisted Pixel is one of the most creative dev shops out there right now. If you haven’t bought some of their work, you really should.
