I’m assuming the plane flight to Kansas City is not going to be very jovial but what do I know? You have to have ice water in your veins too do this 162 times a year and more if you’re actually good and get to the playoffs.

A really disappointing series. Saying much more than that though is waste of words.

A really disappointing week on and off of the field this week.  Swept at home, the Skubal injury, the Valdez clownfoolery, AAA manager dumped immediately.  Goodness, they even DFAed Shawty.

Thanks. That’s good of you and that’s how I got it cheap last year but I don’t think they’re offering me that deal this time, to me at least.  I had to re-up for $139.99 and what they’re telling me right now is that I’m not eligible for these kind of discounts this time and I think they’ve gotten better at closing the loopholes. But you never know…

Yeah, I grabbed that deal last season too. But I didn't catch that it was automatic renewal, so they charged me the full amount for this season. Oh well, it's just another streaming TV charge, but one I use much more than most others. I watch several games, the last couple of innings. Especially the walkoffs.

TBF, 2 ER is not a disaster of a start, but the 3rd and 4th were the Jack we don't want to see.

2 earned runs in this game. But it's the consistency that is most alarming. Is he going to give up 5 runs in the 3rd inning in his next start? Consistently is the key.
