    he just smoked my eyelids and punched my cigarrette
  4. moonslav59
    I'm not sure this is as big an issue as some seem to think it. Ideally, yes, L-R-L-R looks better, but 2 in a row is not a big deal, especially since Anthony seems to do fine vs lefties.
  5. moonslav59
    You keep on with the strawmen. It's what you are good at.
  6. moonslav59
    I prefer the eyelid test. Keeping the eyes open is the first step towards becoming a good player.
  7. moonslav59
    Who went off "half cocked?"
  8. moonslav59
    I think everyone talking about batting orders knows, the impact of changing it is not very big, so nobody thinks it's a "big problem." People often pick out the guy who has had recent struggles, like Weissert, and either blame them for being human or blame Cora for playing somebody he should have known was going to suck. The blame game is as old as history.

    Injury Update: Sandoval: Mid April/Early May (Left UCL)- will throw 4 innings today in extended ST'ing, then to minors rehab assignment. Crawford: Late April/Early May (Right wrist subsheath tear) - will throw 4 innings today in extended ST'ing, then to minors rehab assignment. Casas: May at the earliest (Ruptured left Patellar tendon)-was given clearance to run bases and slide. Will go to minor league rehab assignment, soon. No update on Romy, who is on the 60 day IL with Houck.

    It happened to become a topic for discussion. Nobody called it a "like a big problem," as you said. Nobody even implied it was a bif problem.
  11. moonslav59
    Name one poster who claims the batting order choice is a "big problem."
  12. moonslav59
    A big part was just luck. They got hot, when it counted.
  13. moonslav59
    I would not do either of these, but I suggested this as a solution to the "get Anthony protection" problem.
  14. moonslav59
    I agree, and all the arm up pitches take a toll, too.
  15. moonslav59
    How about.... L Anthony R Contreras L Abreu R Story L Duran R Durbin or L Anthony L Abreu R Contreras L Duran R Story L Mayer R Durbin
  16. moonslav59
    Well, they did choose to spend way more on pitching than a big bat, and we still have an OF/DH logjam that has nothing to do with the budget.
  17. moonslav59
    I'm not sold either. Initially, I liked the idea, but once we got Contreras, others seemed like much better fits. I like Durbin, but we needed more.
  18. moonslav59
    Agreed. Ideally, Durbin would be "that guy," but he has started slowly, and I know how much tiny sample sizes matter to you. 🤣
  19. moonslav59
    See above. (BTW, RBIs: 4 Paredes/ 4 Abreu.)
  20. moonslav59
    Weissert pitched pretty well, last season. He's off to a bad start, but he may end up being a needed plus in our pen, this season. That was a horrible pitch, especially when 0-2 on a high K guy.
  21. moonslav59
    We could have had Durbin (3B) & Suarez (1B/DH) or Suarez (3B) and Durbin/Mayer (2B). Better yet, KMarte, Neto or Paredes.
  22. moonslav59
    We had chances to score more. I hope this doesn't become a pattern.
  23. moonslav59
    Saying someone had a good game is not being "giddy" or projecting they will keep having good games. The fact that you think my giddiness leads to future outcomes says more about your "curse" than mine.
  24. moonslav59
    I'm 67. I miss the "good ole days," too, but this is the way of the game, now. Within this context, I was actually surprised Early came out for the 6th, and when he let up the line drive single, I thought the hook was coming then & there. If Weissert gets the out, nothing would have been mentioned.
  25. moonslav59
    Yea, my "touting" is the reason.
