  1. Wow. What a strike zone! Yogi couldn't have hit that supposed strike!
  2. Right on the money about Wayne! Very much like those Giant-Flag folks in the NFL--Goodell, Jerry Jones, and many others--who never saw a square inch of camo or piece of stars-and-stripes bunting that didn't bring them to tears, but somehow avoided those situations (like the military) where they could actually wear the stuff.
  3. Somehow, with Kike and Valdez up the middle, I'm not really focussing on Yoshida's defense being a problem.
  4. I can still see, pre-Lynn, Gary Geiger at full speed do a header into that bullpen wall. Horrifying. Even as a kid, I was surprised there were no pads.
  5. Just wondering if anyone thinks Casas gets the entire season to prove himself. He got a bit better once he started to swing the bat; but having done that, we can see why he so often went to the plate looking for a walk.
  6. Looks like Duran took Casas' advice. (But SS is right: that first pitch was a foot outside. Not sure what the ump thought he saw there.)
  7. The vets you know must have had better experiences with VA hospitals than my friends have. Also, there's hardly need for special social services for vets in many other countries, because they already have universal health care.
  8. I am always stunned by how much Youk can talk without saying anything.
  9. What an entitled a-hole that fan is. That's Dugo's bat, not a party favor. (Like the kid whose a-hole parents wouldn't let him give ... was it Yoshida's first HR?)
  10. Youk is absolutely the worst announcer ever. It's like listening to a relative who talks constantly but says nothing: "the sun is out did you know it's lighter during the day than at night? except when there are clouds, but of course clouds are different from dark but then if it's warm did you buy groceries today? I like poodles .." As usual, I am listening to Joe even though the video is delayed.
  11. Dude. You are a major part of the problem. Please stop,
  12. Narragansett lager. With some of the funniest and often tasteless ads some 60-70 years ago.
  13. Guys. As has been said more than once. Just stop.
  14. That wad, I believe, is bubble gum and sunflower seeds. I doubt it affect his performance.
  15. Ha! Well I went with advance-stats metrics, and determined that Duran's 4 K's meant he had a minus xr1d83&*WAR today
  16. Maybe the reason so many RS opponents are over .500 is because they have played so many games against the RS?
  17. Left out Verdugo.
  18. Gosh. These guys were great as RS. I loved watching them (although maybe your face was too buried in stats to do that). Maybe I'm not a "true" fan. But I never want players I've been following and who have given me, as a spectator so much fun, to fail. And why you guys revel in that is really beyond me.
  19. Oh right. dWAR again. Essentially the quantification of the eye-test.
  20. You know, Luciano, a lot of us weren't happy about your approach to that C. Now we don't sing, mind you, but we listen to a lot of music, and we really think what you need to do is take on a lot more baritone roles.
  21. Besides, who needs Bogey. We have Storey. Well, sometimes we do, I mean, you know, when he's on the field.
  22. Ha ha! Yup. You had your shot!! But now? You have to live like the rest of us.
