Long hair, a frilly & bedazzled jacket, and leather pants? Quite the conservative manly get up has going there.

Too many syllables for a lot of social media accounts to understand. There's too much focus on stuffing people into one side or the other these days.

The ironies are fun. Kid Rock's hat and Kid Rock's drink. Abhorring men with makeup vs going whole hog for Trump as president.

I'm missing the Wolfie reference for Maton. Its probably obvious, but I'm an idiot.

Boston has allowed 14 stolen bases without throwing anyone out so far in this early season.

Yes, they both deserve credit. "Mike Brown, coach of the year" is just not a phrase that I thought I'd hear coming from Sacramento.

So that's, what, 160 IPs in exchange for 1,500 PAs plus defense & baserunning? That probably minimizes the impact of pitching a bit. But it also doesn't take into consideration time remaining before free agency, so there's that variable, too.

Mike Brown, coach of the year?

I don't know if it was mentioned before, but his minor league OBP is above .400. How often do you see that? Heck, college, summer ball, minors, all above .400. There was the 147 PAs in A ball Augusta where is OBP bottomed out at .388, but I think we can let that go by the wayside. Hopefully his glove plays solidly somewhere on the field. Small sample size, but Toledo has had him at 3B/DH. He was split pretty evenly last season between 3B/LF in Atlanta's organization, but 3B pretty much exclusively aside from that. I don't know if that's a sign of his glove or if Atlanta had to shuffle a couple of 3Bdudes around to other positions for playing time.

I was kind of hoping he'd be sent up to pinch hit in the 9th. I wanted to see that cowboy hat on him as he strolled up to the plate.

Baez needs a day off now and again. Load management for Cabrera. Schoop is in a platoon.

The inexperience is a valid call out. It was a bit of a disappointing season for him on the surface, but he was a rookie with very little professional experience, he wasn't the only hitter that struggled, there were metrics that suggested he was a bit unlucky with results despite hitting the ball hard. Yes, 2022 stunk. Can't wait to see where he's at around Memorial Day. I think we're going to see significant improvements in the numbers.

The conspiracies are likely to happen whenever he goes.

Agree. I don't see the optimism in this given how he weasels out of everything. The only way he doesn't run for the 2024 presidency is if he is no longer among the living. And even then he's going to get write in votes.

Nice work everybody. We should be proud of ourselves.

Props to you for working on launch angle with him.

Before this road trip started, I figured a 2-4 trip would be acceptable. They've achieved that floor.

Brooklyn Nets vs Detroit Pistons

Then I guess you're in the gray area of umpiring opinion and that's not always a good thing. Well, still a worthy send, I think. It took a throw right on line from Valdez to get Vierling.

Pistons at 63 losses with this L. Houston at 19 wins hosting Denver right now. So, a Rocket win and the Pistons clinch the worst record outright.

But doesn't the catcher have to allow part of the plate to the runner?

Hopefully Cisnero is on a plane out of Texas right now before he warms up for this game.
