  1. Well, he is a 2 time silver slugger.
  2. Yup. I'm not suggesting my theory is what happened or that your theory isn't accurate or anything like that. I just don't know that one move was dependent upon the other. I do think we have learned over one offseason of Harris is that he isn't afraid to have multiple options at the disposal of the club at the MLB/AAA levels.
  3. 21st Century Babe Ruth seems easier to type.
  4. I don't know. Was the Soto trade made to fill 3B (sort of) or was it made to move Soto for some pieces that might be useful (Maton being one who has played mostly SS but also has played other IF)? Candelario was let go in mid November. Maton was traded for in early January. Ibanez and Nevin were acquired before Maton. Malloy was, too, but I doubt he was considered for MLB action. I guess what I am getting at is that I don't think retaining Candelario would have prevented or necessarily dissuaded Maton as part of a Soto deal. Maton could have been used at 2B with Candelario at 3B. We've seen Maton at 2B with Nevin at 3B. Soto has proven control issues. Maton has an eye for OBP outside of AVG. I think trading away a player like Soto and trading for a player like Maton fits into Harris' desire for controlling the strike zone.
  5. There aren't many houses close to the trails that I use. Kind of thinking through it, the houses that are close are within a village township area where the trails are used more frequently, so that kind of foot/bike traffic on the trail shouldn't be a surprise.
  6. Well, I am middle aged, doughy, and white, so that might at least get me a warning.
  7. These stories have me questioning one of my bike routes that I take. Its a rails to trails blacktop trail, yellow stripe down the middle, mileage markers, signage when crossing vehicle roads, etc. Its hard to think that it is not a public space. But it also butts up against plenty of private properties, a few of which are noted as such. I've never considered venturing off of the trail and onto someone's domain. But, who knows, I have two wheels and a brightly colored bike helmet, so that might scare someone. And I would have no chance to defend myself, I'm only packing a water bottle, phone, and earbuds.

  9. Oh, I’m sure there was incentive to swing at close pitches today.
  10. No, that’s just the river burning.
  11. Can a mod change the “Doubleheader” to “Tripleheader” in the title?
  12. But how much better does it have to feel for the teams and umps and on hand personnel? A doubleheader over just like that as opposed to a day night doubleheader that neither game is done in less than 3 hours.
  13. 2 wins within only 5 hours today. That ain’t bad.
  14. That’s kind of what I was thinking. Along those lines, I’ve wondered about Gibson this early season. His voice sounds weaker, but he seems to get lost in thought a bit more. Maybe it’s just a matter of getting back into a groove, hopefully nothing more than that.
  15. So, do the stop beer sales after the 7th inning of the 1st game and then resume after game 1 ends? Its a stupid question asked by a stupid person, but I want to know.
  16. Apparently nothing if it involves MCS' bank account.
