    If Buch gets into 2 or 3 games a week, maybe he will build some arm strength that will eventually help him if he gets back into the rotation. I wonder if being in the bullpen will allow him to pitch past his usual expiration date of the All Star Break.

    It is a very different game today. The guys on Golden State hit three pointers like they are layups. They are incredible. I like watching the playoffs, but generally I don't watch the NBA because the first 3 quarters are meaningless. You just need to watch the last 2 minutes.

    I know that the Dodgers brought him up. Is he considered to be a finished product?

    General anesthesia at that age is a very big risk. Even if they survive the surgery, they can have many other complications that can be life-threatening. My mother in law had 3 surgeries after age 88, and after each surgery her cognitive abilities diminished drastically. These are not easy decisions. I hope that it works out for her.

    Sorry about that. That will put her on her back for a while.

    Yes, Yaz was moving out as Rice, Lynn and Evans were starting out. However, Yaz played a full season in the OF in 1977 and half a season in 1978, so he did play a considerable number of games alongside Lynn and Evans. He also won a gold glove for LF in 1977. When he wasn't out there, Rice was out there, and although Jim Ed was built like a body builder, his athleticism was under rated.

    It is a great disappointment. He is a special hitter.

    If you want to talk about athleticism, Fred Lynn played freshman football at USC on a football scholarship. Rice was a football star who was offered scholarships from Nebraska, North Carolina and Clemson. He was an All-State kick returner in North Carolina. Yaz was a two sport star growing up on Long island. The only reason that he wasn't a 3 sport star was because his father would not let him play football. His high school basketball scoring record in Suffolk County, Long Island held up for about 40 years. There was some pretty decent athleticism in that 75 outfield.

    It is a long climb to surpass that Outfield of Yaz, Lynn and Evans. They could do it all.

    Gibbons is an idiot. Estrada shuts the Yankees down on 3 hits over 8 innings making them look helpless, but he goes to his bullpen in the 9th and his closer is not available. The Yankees end up bringing the tying run to the plate against the bums in the Jays pen.

    At the game mojo for JBay!!

    It will be very interesting to see ERod's stuff. I have been hearing that his velocity has been down.

    Yaz, Lynn and Evans were pretty darn good defensively. And the back up CFer, Rick Miller was the best of the bunch.
  14. a700hitter
    That is a tough break.
  15. a700hitter
    Marco Hernandez with a 3 run Homer off a pretty good reliever for his first career home run. That was great to see.
  16. a700hitter
    Swihart is getting his extra base hits. He needs to do that if he wants to keep the LF spot. His catch thhe other day in LF was reminiscent for me of Yaz.

    Trade this over-hyped overpaid second baseman!

    Those bats have been cold up to now. The odds are that their offense will get very hot as the season progresses.

    Ahh you are a prepper. Water baloon fights are lots of gun. Our weapon of choice during the childhood years was the super soaker.

    You have been spending many hours doing yard work. You must either live on a big estate or you are doing day labor on the weekends.

    Red Sox win! Clay with the win out of the pen!
  22. a700hitter
    Pedey should have kept that ball in the ballpark!! Trade him!
  23. a700hitter
    They have been in a collective team slump to this point of th season. This is the time that you want to face them.
  24. a700hitter
    And when I am bored I will read those articles--- when there is no game to watch.

    Porcello is a 4/5 and Price has been inconsistent pitching at a 4/5 level. They and the chubby knuckleballer are anchoring our staff. The other 2 spots are holes so big that they are an abyss.
