  1. In general, yes, I don't mind Keith getting some more time vs LHPs. However, they just called Lee up. They're playing, what 13 in a row? They're going to give position players a day off or two during this stretch. You've got a point about resting both Keith and Greene in the same game. He had a bad game in a 0-1 loss. If he had a net zero game, nobody squawks.
  2. Because your WAR in last night's game was a -0.6.
  3. Are we now done with the Golden State as superior team masquerade? And by we, I don't mean folks in this forum.
  4. His defense did look shaky. I was surprised Lee was called up, I figured it would have been Jung. But, if Lee (RHH) was called up, you're not going to use him vs a LHP? Come on.....
  5. You're back home from the previous night out by 9am?
  6. I've got some relatives that are very active in the Catholic church, one of whom is a deacon. And some other relatives active in other churches. Pretty sure most of them are red hats. Just kind of curious if this term has made them found their true religion. This moment in particular for a few of them.
  7. Starting times for this weekend are 7:15p, 4:10p, 1:35p, and 11:10a. The Monday game is the traditional Red Sox game that coincides with the Boston Marathon
  8. Do they match your suspenders?
  9. The radar does not look great. Any driveway updates?
  10. I don't recall seeing back-to-back plays at the plate like that before, certainly not with the flare of the slide by Baez.
  11. That’s when two tornadoes went through Manitou Beach / Devils Lake, not far from Coldwater, within like 2 or 3 hours of each other. There was action from that front in Toledo, too. My dad remembers living not far from the path of a tornado there.
  12. Hat tip to @IdahoBert for the photo.
  13. I read that book for a book report in grade school. I don't think the teacher was happy that I chose it. But she audibly laughed when I read aloud Sparky's entry about clinching the division. He got cut by a bottle of champagne and remarked how the mixture of blood and bubbly looked good on his jersey.
  14. Its Jackie Robinson Day.
  15. I looked up that acronym on my google machine, and that was the response I got.
  16. I believe you need more vowels, sir.
  17. This one. https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/DET/DET198404210.shtml I had just turned 11 and my brother just turned 10. Mom and Dad splurged on us big time and got birthday seats for the boys, 2nd row behind the plate. It was only the 2nd time there for me and my brother. The previous year we were 2nd deck along the RF line. But seats behind the plate? 2nd row? Wowza. Sweet Lou led off the bottom of the first with a home run. A few drunks behind us yelled “Oh no, it’s Ho Jo!” every time Howard Johnson came to the plate. It was funny until they knocked a beer over on my brother’s Tiger yearbook that was under his seat. It was a cool day. The snap of the catcher’s mitt was fun. While the premise of sitting that close seems awesome, especially to a kid, I think that’s when I first realized that sitting up front like that takes away from some of the other vantages that just aren’t there. But, whatever, it was a great time.
  18. The SO% seems really high compared to last season. It’s only 29 PAs and he did have a very good offensive debut in about 150 PAs last year in Lakeland. Hopefully it’s just a rough start.
