  1. Not that we don't need robo umps, but I wonder if there is something about Rodriguez's delivery. He was getting squeezed in the opening day game, too.
  2. It's pouring in Birmingham
  3. the TrueAce®
  4. Here are my predictions. I can't do the records -- too much maths. AL East -- Jays AL Central -- Sux AL West -- Mariners AL WC -- Yankees, Twins, Tampa NL East -- Mets NL Central -- Beers NL West -- Dodgers NL WC -- Phillies, Braves, Giants NL Champ -- Dodgers AL Champ -- Sux WS Champ -- Dodgers EDIT: Oops, forgot the awards. AL Cy: Jose Berrios NL Cy: Walker Buehler AL MVP: Ohtani NL MVP: Soto AL Rookie: Torkelson NL Rookie: O'Neil Cruz
  5. Really waiting for the day when there is a player named Jesus Pagan
  6. attending for the first time in years. and of course the weather is shit
  7. Al looks like a guy who tried out but was too fat to be in The Matrix
  8. that park is both deep and has a massive amount of foul territory for pop-ups to be turned into outs
  9. I was thinking he's like an extra from Starsky & Hutch. Guy in a bar, guy behind the counter in a store, something like that. Alternatively, starring alongside Ron Jeremy.
  10. Chafin kinda seems like he might be my new favorite Tiger
  11. obviously it's not him, he's not wearing the buzzer
  12. I used to see her at events at my kids' school, so I gather that I lived close to her somehow. Anyway, she's kind of short. And she's not Amy Andrews . . .
  13. you're fucking with me subliminally
  14. I do a fair amount of negotiating in my line of work, and we never accomplish anything with in-person sessions. Too many personalities, egos, etcetera. In my experience, the exchange of written proposals is where the real work is done. It is possible that there may be progress on that front, notwithstanding the hardly-existent in-person sessions. But it doesn't sound like it.
  15. Again going off memory, I think Willie Blair's good year was 1997. He won like 20 games and then signed with Arizona
  16. the forthcoming signing of Correa
  17. it was like three people
  18. I like the idea of more protection from the sun. I would get rid of the parking lot out front and shift the park right up to Woodward Ave., opening up a couple blocks between Comerica and Ford Field. That would be some of the hottest real estate in the City if it existed.
  19. In my experience, in any negotiation, you have to have some things to negotiate away. If there were not some things the players could live without among their demands, there would be no negotiation. None of us really know all the demands, what people really want, and what they are willing to do without.
  20. ♪ fruit salad ♪
  21. I like it. I would swap Candy and Correa, tho
  22. hahaha **** 'em If Chris is wise he'd snap up the former FSD
  23. Except its "emperor," not "president"
