  1. Yup. Time to start another winning streak.
  2. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen such a bipolar player before. It’s not to say he only plays on the extreme ends. But he can look so darn impressive at times and completely horrible at others with plenty of in the middle. His effortless transition to CF just impresses me. We’ve seen a few guys do that before. Brandon Inge is one that comes to mind, leaving from behind the plate to land at 3B with some short time in OF. Yes, the bat was meh. But the glove work deserves mention. Craig Biggio from behind the plate to 2B to OF to HOF. I knew of it, but baseball wasn’t on as much as it is today. And HOF Robin Yount. MVPs at SS and CF? Even less TV exposure during his playing days, so tough to follow outside of print media. i don’t think anyone is happy with the Baez contract. But his defense and versatility have ready come into benefit last season and now.
  3. In general, yes, I don't mind Keith getting some more time vs LHPs. However, they just called Lee up. They're playing, what 13 in a row? They're going to give position players a day off or two during this stretch. You've got a point about resting both Keith and Greene in the same game. He had a bad game in a 0-1 loss. If he had a net zero game, nobody squawks.
  4. Because your WAR in last night's game was a -0.6.
  5. Are we now done with the Golden State as superior team masquerade? And by we, I don't mean folks in this forum.
  6. His defense did look shaky. I was surprised Lee was called up, I figured it would have been Jung. But, if Lee (RHH) was called up, you're not going to use him vs a LHP? Come on.....
  7. You're back home from the previous night out by 9am?
  8. I've got some relatives that are very active in the Catholic church, one of whom is a deacon. And some other relatives active in other churches. Pretty sure most of them are red hats. Just kind of curious if this term has made them found their true religion. This moment in particular for a few of them.
  9. Starting times for this weekend are 7:15p, 4:10p, 1:35p, and 11:10a. The Monday game is the traditional Red Sox game that coincides with the Boston Marathon
  10. The radar does not look great. Any driveway updates?
  11. I don't recall seeing back-to-back plays at the plate like that before, certainly not with the flare of the slide by Baez.
  12. That’s when two tornadoes went through Manitou Beach / Devils Lake, not far from Coldwater, within like 2 or 3 hours of each other. There was action from that front in Toledo, too. My dad remembers living not far from the path of a tornado there.
  13. Hat tip to @IdahoBert for the photo.
  14. I read that book for a book report in grade school. I don't think the teacher was happy that I chose it. But she audibly laughed when I read aloud Sparky's entry about clinching the division. He got cut by a bottle of champagne and remarked how the mixture of blood and bubbly looked good on his jersey.
  15. I looked up that acronym on my google machine, and that was the response I got.
