  1. The baseball establishment would never admit to anything and there have been years where the balls have been juiced -- this being one of those years. Who would leak it? Who would know it? The baseball code of silence is akin to omerta -- their finances are till largely unknown.
  2. My hatred for the Dodgers has nothing to do with how they build their team or spend money. As far as hating the players, hate is not rational. I hate anything in pinstripes too.
  3. His latte's are to die for. LOL!!
  4. And the last piece was Verlander -- a move that Ben never would have made.
  5. Gabe Kapler has been named manager of the Phillies. Poor guy. Philadelphia sucks = the team, the city and their fans.
  6. People were okay with unprecedented last place finishes by a Red Sox team as long as they were convinced that he was building toward the future. Ben was just awful. To paraphrase Bob Gibson, the only thing Ben knows about pitching is that he can't hit it. The future never would have come under Ben as he could dismantle pitching staffs, but he couldn't build a staff. You can't win without good pitching. Houston was built from the ground up, but they were bold in adding the final touch in acquiring Verlander at the trading deadline. Ben never would have made that type of move.
  7. Roberts is a very positive person.
  8. The deeper the knife goes into the heart of the Dodgers the better I feel. I relish watching that knife twist. I hope their players cry. I do feel bad for for Dave Roberts. I like him a lot, and he holds a special place in my heart.
  9. And this one was all Ben, not LL.
  10. McCann has come up big for the Astros in the post season, i.e. Clutch. Sanchez s*** the bed for the Yankees, especially behind the plate.
  11. Coach was sending the runner, but Taylor couldn't hear him.
  12. That ball was hit pretty deep. Reddick didn't have a chance to get his momentum going forward. I would have sent the runner on Third.
  13. Springer gave up a run and then he got it back on one big swing.
  14. Very poor decision by the UConn Flash.
  15. Altuve was so determined in that AB. He blasted. A foul ball deep into the LF stands and he kept swinging from the heels knowing that Maeda had nothing to get him out. He is some player.
  16. Ask Big Papi and get back to me.
  17. Clayton Chokeshaw
  18. The racist tied the game.
  19. It should be updated to say "a pot of coffee."
  20. And this is a common story for GM's at the helm of big market teams.
  21. I don't think that their name was ever "Trolley Dodgers." They did have other names, notably for about 15 year including the 1920's they were known as the Robins.
  22. Beckett helped bring us a Championship. Crawford was an epic bust.
  23. Schmidt was an excellent fielder.
  24. This is true. I expect that we will have new toys by this time next month.
