  1. And then robot players. The initial capital outlay might be a little steep, but once they're built you just have to maintain them. They wouldn't miss games with things like strained obliques. Best of all, no rest days necessary.
  2. Ah, no matter what they do or don't do, there will always be plenty of fans beetching about something. It's one of the favorite pastimes of baseball fans, before, during and after games.
  3. Problems are relative, other teams have them too, or we wouldn't have a 45-22 record. And the current slump has only been a few games long, really.
  4. Man, everyone is an armchair manager.
  5. I'm hoping he's following in Lester's footsteps. Jon was much more of a nibbler early in his career.
  6. Joe is kicking butt - too bad it's his walk year all of a sudden.
  7. You can be sure there would be some technical glitches with robot umps too. If something can get f'd up, it will.
  8. You want a robot for balls and strikes but you're OK with other blown calls?
  9. He's being eased back in slowly.
  10. I was also wondering if the original lineup last night had Holt starting in right, and Mookie was a gametime decision to play.
  11. This was brought up by a bunch of people on the game thread. I don't have the answer for why Cora did this, but I am quite sure he had his reasons and it wasn't an oversight. I do wish the media would ask the manager this type of question though.
  12. Why not Brock Holt?
  13. Let's be honest, the outcomes of these games are very important to us.
  14. Although this might actually save a bit of time by saving some challenges on plays that would clearly lose.
  15. The Mets only paid minimum I think. Braves were on the hook for the 22 million, they released him, similar to us and HanRam.
  16. If we're going to look at a racist component, though, since you mentioned JD Drew, there was a good-looking white guy who took a pounding for his disappointing numbers and his supposed issues in the character area.
  17. I would call it a necessary evil. It's a pain, but when you look at the number of calls by supposedly the best umps in the business that get overturned, it makes you realize how hard it is to get those calls right.
  18. I'm not so sure AGon was 'vilified'. He had the misfortune of having his first season with the team end in one of the worst collapses in baseball history. He said a few things that rubbed people the wrong way. As for his play, he did disappoint in one regard. People were expecting a 40 home run slugger but his power seemed to have been diminished by his shoulder surgery.
  19. Good to have him back. He is under team control through 2020.
  20. As Pete Abe pointed out, it was a nice little touch of irony that AG was released after a Sunday night game vs. the Yanks.
  21. And thanks Ben for being Larry's puppet!
