This ump sucks.

Oops, wrong thread.

This ump sucks.

With so many OTs that are graded well this year, I wonder what the odds of a small trade back scenario are. By pick 16 they will know how many OTs are left and may decide they can still get one, along with an extra later pick. Do they have discussions with other teams ahead of the draft to see how it might work? Obviously the further back you drop, the more risk that you miss out on your guys.

I don’t think Benetti forces his humor. I think he’s just got the kind of mind that makes associations very quickly and is glib in a playful way. I hear him make a pun that no one picks up on and he lets it go. If he didn’t let it go, that would seem forced to me. I got the opinion that he and Dirks can be too much, and too tangential. It just doesn’t bug me much.

I haven’t given up on De Jesus, partially because he’s one of the few LHers in the pen. And I think he might be better than Hurter.

Seabold can’t find the zone. Cards have loaded the bases with one out in the bottom of the eighth.

Alas, just the single run.

Loaded again-two outs. Torres up.

Bases full of Bengals-no outs for Javy. Gets a sac fly to cut the lead to one. Still two on, one out. Pinch hitter in for Colt.

And now the Cards add two more. 🙁

Oops. DeJesus throws poorly…tie game.

More runs, please.

Dingler with the keen eye. Two challenges for Tiger strikes.
