Shades of Deivi Cruz

He's starting for the Mud Hens on Wednesday, much to my family's delight.

Two things. First, Dirks is over-the-moon thrilled that his McGonigoogles comment has taken hold (as he should be). Second, the Petry version they showed during the broadcast was pathetic. No wonder Andy, Jason and Daniella don't invite him to do fun things.

Yeah, but it's also possible that the cloning process would wield him catcher capabilities, thus allowing for a full McG lineup.

"Occasionally against lefties"???? Who do you think this guy is, Zach McKinstry?

Bonus points for Julks is that his photo makes him look like a super friendly psycho.

Just odd because he came out for a defensive replacement in top 8, and his spot in the lineup led off the bottom of 8.

Why did Carpenter come out of the Mud Hens game?

I'm not sure what that has to do with this. I'm just saying the wording of his statement read to me that they were getting threats from anti-Trumpers. Maybe I'm wrong about that. It's just the way I read it. My preference would be that I'm wrong, because those kinds of threats are not helpful to opposing MAGA/Trump.

I took the "concerns about safety" comments as some idiot "Leftists" made threats about performing at this, not necessarily that it would turn into Jan 6 Redux.

My pet peeve is that every time this thread gets bumped, I get reminded that my guitar has been packed and stowed under the bed for years due to lack of progress.

Right. We all learned long ago that it doesn't matter how, as long as he goes.
