When they ask these guys to “put it into words“ I wish they would just reply with something like “actions speak louder than words.”

I guess the pregame goes until almost half past the hour.

The Yankees road uniforms have a quiet dignity I like.

I’ve never liked the NL and AL jerseys. This seems a lot better.

ABS Batter, pitcher, or catcher. Two challenges and retained if correct.

Jeter saying good things about the Tigers in addition to the fact they can’t stand pat.

I just now changed the name of this thread to the actual All-Star game thread for the sake of convenience.

That is really cool thank you.

Right now, I’m re-watching Roger Corman’s Death Race 2000. It’s good preparation for Home Run Derby.

Great post Chas. Thank you. I’m confident that the guys in charge of this operation will keep pushing the right buttons to move this freight train organization forward.

Skenes and Skubal to open, and there’s a 51% chance of rain an hour before the game begins.

I sure am glad that the people at the helm of this team have as much intelligence and practical experience as they’ve already demonstrated. Last year, when we all thought they had thrown in the towel and given up, things turned around in a remarkable manner. I don’t know if we can expect lightning to strike twice, but if necessary I’m willing to stand in the rain in open field in my bare feet near a body of water holding a 20 foot metal rod in the air if that’s what it takes.

So 18 days until the trading deadline. I don’t know if the chances of getting a good deal depends on waiting until the last moment or not.

I’m glad I didn’t build my day around this game. I was unable to because I’m blacked out in the Mariners viewing area but instead I took a great walk in the foothills of the Boise Front today at the botanical garden and spent quality time with my son. Hope things get better in the next few days.

Maybe the Mariners are actually good. Maybe they’re starting to peak and baseball hasn’t seen the last of them.

BOOOOOOOOOO!

Bite me! BOOOOO!

Is it a traditional cap or one of those flamboyant caps the kids wear?

Baez, Keith, and Torres coming up next.

You’re probably right. I hope you are right.

3-2 Ms thanks to a homer.
