At this point, I don’t know why anyone would believe Simmons will be playing until he is actually in a game playing. Honestly, if you’re the opponent, do you even bother game playing with him in mind? Seems like a waste of time. And then if he is out there, you go right at him, right? He’s probably lost so much game speed reps, make him prove he’s not rusty.

That’s cool, thanks for sharing. I haven’t an artful or creative molecule in me, so this is somewhat mesmerizing to me.

Or what about Torkleson at 3B, Cabrera at 1B, Meadows at DH for a game here or there is Candelario continues to struggle?

We were forewarned of such.

Baez had a fun time tracking a fly ball today, too. And there was the play later in the game where a trio of Rockies converged on a fly that fell in short LF where Grossman was kind of damned if he ran from 2nd and damned if he didn’t.

He has struggled with some foul fly balls. It’s kind of weird. I’ve counted 3 or 4 on the season. Aside from that, I think he’s been fine.

Nah, I don’t want to see anybody hitting the 60, that’s bad news. Ideally he continues to outperform his peripherals and we’re left to keep guessing how or his peripherals & output both improve. I’m more than happy to eat crow if he turns into a highly effective pitcher.

Better per diem.

I'm blaming soccer for the hooliganism that occurred in New York.

Good on the Yankee players for going out there to show their disdain for what was going on.

Might as well win the series.

He’s looked good the little bit that I’ve seen of him this season. I know, small sample size.

How do we know this isn’t Cabrera’s idea also?

This post is aging poorly.

The Tigers have Pittsburgh as arch rivals, Colorado as geographical rivals, Arizona as traditional rivals,…. It’s just great.

Needed to be bolded and/or italicized.

Let’s put it in perspective. We put up with you.

Be honest, you ran the sprinklers last night, didn't you?

And that's just the on field stuff. Has anyone every heard of a bad Hank Aaron story off of the field?

If that's the case, do you just give him tomorrow off as well, day off on Monday, and activate him for Tuesday?

I'm not suggesting it would make $en$e, but I'm just asking the question.

Anyone thinks he pulls a John Kruk, gets to first on a single, and then decides to retire immediately?

San Francisco put baseball on notice earlier this season. Heck, it might have been the first series of the season. They are not going to let down. They will need to be stopped. Run differential is a tie breaker for playoff eligibility (and perhaps a tie breaker for the division, I don't know), and extra runs scored now are the same as extra runs scored in September. Additionally, this is the beginning of the series. I have no problem with trying to wipe out the opponents' pitching staff for the series in the 1st game of the series. If there's an opportunity on Friday to gain an edge for Saturday and Sunday. Nobody is doing anything untoward as far as trying to injure anyone else like going in spikes up or throwing at batters' heads or anything like that. Don't like it? Do a better job of shutting the opponent down.

Why wouldn't he be called up? They still have 27 innings to cover this weekend.
