Of course I'm resisting calling the Minn opponents the Twinks because that would humanize them too much. To hate them they need to be like Daleks. Anyway...the Twiniaks are winning in the second game because the Baltimore sucks are sucking too much. Quote

I have noticed that positions on the 40-man roster change more quickly than they did in the past. It used to be that someone might be listed as an outfielder, but played first base all year and they never changed it all season. That hasn't been happening the last couple of years. Are these positions official designations or is the website just updating them more often? Quote

If Foley is on the MINOR League 60, he doesn't count against the 165 man reserve list. Foley is still on the 7 day IL. Edited May 14 by Edman85 Quote

Either that or Riley hurt himself on a dive again. Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on a bit here for a second before we get on much further here. You said something about Riley being injured?? That’s like thinking I heard in the background someone saying “Grandma hung herself out by a tree near Dad's still by the pig pen.” I want to know if the still is OK. Quote

Cody says Jung's locker is gone - which is usually pretty solid tea-leaf reading. If so then it was all about Jung needing a reset and nothing involving other players.

Tiger337 Posted May 14 Posted May 14 (edited) You guys all said Tork and Baez are no good yu were wrong you are wrong about Baddoo too. Edited May 14 by Tiger337 1 1 Quote

If so then it was all about Jung needing a reset and nothing more. I was just thinking how he got on base before both of Javy's home runs. In the 6th inning, he got HBP. In the 11th inning, he got a single. Quote

I haven't seen Akil play in a while so I don't know if he's changed anything. Torkelson said he *slowed down* his swing as part of his adjustments to make more contact - you wonder if that might not be something Baddoo should think about - he always had such a blindingly fast swing, but it didn't find the ball very often.

They shall not pass - Wikipedia Having visited Verdun when I was young I was struck by the absolute generation-killing impact of that battle. Imagine losing all the dead of the US Civil War in one battle. Re: WWI I just finished reading the book, July 1914, by Sean McMeekin. Very good book! 1 Quote

I'm just messig around. I expect nothing from Baddoo, although I expected nothing from Baez either Quote
