While not condoning said actions, we also need to be cognizant of the fact that wearing some specific team jerseys can lead certain folks astray from decency and standard moral code. Quote
IdahoBert Posted July 9 Posted July 9 I wish this were a day game. I’ve got time on my hands right now. To quote Eddie Cochrane from his classic 1958 rock and roll song "C'mon Everybody" "Well, c'mon everybody and let's get together tonight I got some money in my jeans and I'm really gonna spend it right Well, I've been a-doin' my homework all the week long And now, the house is empty and the folks are gone."

I have never heard of any player leaving a game, changing into street clothes and then going into the stands to confront a fan. Quote

Really a no name prospect last year in AA, healthy for the first time in a long time, adjusts his swing for more power and average and gets added to the 40 and now this year will be joining the big league club even if only for a little bit.

Smart move—had been raking and can also C, which provides more versatility. 1 Quote

NorthWoods Posted July 9 Posted July 9 From McCoskey: Detroit — It got lost in the shuffle Wednesday, what with Justin Verlander announcing this was going to be his last season and all, but it was certainly not lost on the Tigers that second baseman Gleyber Torres has seemingly turned a corner as he makes his way back from a second oblique strain. “I love the spark in his voice and his excitement that he’s not feeling anything,” manager AJ Hinch said. 1 Quote
IdahoBert Posted July 9 Posted July 9 Is “recalled“ the appropriate term when he’s never actually been on the big club before? Quote
