Tigers, Guardians, Twins, Royals on a collective 16-0 run.

true that

Terreible HP ump didn't help - looked like Jobe let it get under his skin a couple of times - another thing he has to learn to get over.

Mary Sue not up for another interim. Provost apparently not in line for the job ....or maybe is.

Torkelson busts it down the line with a 9 run lead. Earns himself a run scored.

Congrats! RCC theology (TBH - theology in general really) has always left me more bemused that anything else. Even now still doing a lot of counting of those angels on pinheads. But I'll give any institution it's props that has survived for 2000 years.

you knew it was only a matter of time before Kelly was a manager. Good for him.

if he is his nerves had the better of him last night. I'd have gone with the weed explanation but his eyes looked clear enough.

I hope you also have lots of mouse traps.

there is really only one interesting question here - did he quit or did he get fired? Everyone's interpretation of the event is either true or false depending on the answer to that question.

No doubt

And keeping Kane over York for Tigers postgames is some kine of weird choice. Last night Kane was 1) full of verbal ticks 2) more 'ya knows' than two full Dan Petry games 3) giggling like a 4 yr old. 4) total inability to form a complete sentence. IOW about as unprofesssional as any rookie who ever sat in front of a mic. He seems to do a nice job with Piston's PBP, but he is otherwise pretty damn terrible. Who are the programmers who think that's good production?

Nido has a BaBIP of 500. I don't he's going to remain shocking for very long. But if by then Jake is back he will have served nicely

Sweeney has only 250 MLB PA, he could still go either way, but he's on a nice trajectory right now.

Mangled metaphor alert: Someone needs to tell Geico that if you are actually the guilty party (Rick!), you are not a 'scapegoat.

Jobe still needs to learn to throw more strikes.

Fly to right good enough.

K him and lets call it a night

Did I call that or not? (Well, Ok, the guy who walked wasn't one of the outs.....)

set up the dp (we hope)

Ump gave the rockies a ball called as a strike on every batter in the top of the 10th. Starts the bottom taking a strike from Vest. He's been all over the place all night.

I guess it takes extra-ordinary effort to catch the ball *and* kick your shortstop.

Roberts is another one of those guys who didn't appreciate that you can't keep giving stuff away and then just have it stop because you want it to. All these conservative who thought they could ride the Tiger who are now getting eaten - go screw yourselves.

You have to feel bad personally for anyone out of a gig - but I have to admit that seeing Thompson always made me reach for the mute button. Shannon Hogan is my "don't know what you've got till it's gone" for people in the Host/reporter role. I never thought much one way or the other about her being a particular talent, but it amazes me that in a generation as video savvy as the one moving into these gigs that it could be so hard to come anywhere close to someone as good.

They should have moved this one up but the Rockies probably didn't want to lose most of another gate. The future radar shows one little front yet to come through but it's so wispy it might not drop anything at Coors - or it might.
