  1. Funny I don't remember the 2018 Gub. primary much at all. I guess there are years when I know that the chance of anything 'the other guy' does could change my mind are so small I basically don't pay any attention to them. But now that you jogged my memory I remember the party switch, etc...
  2. Just cite him for contempt and put him in jail overnight between the trial session.
  3. LOL 28% isn't much a "win" is it? I know runoffs are expensive but in an ideal world you would have to get 50% to win any election. What is your main knock on Thanedar?
  4. One of Scully's great skills (and Ernie's FTM) was he could translate excitement without shouting. He'd just pitch a little higher and that was all you needed to know the action had picked up. As good as Dickerson is, that would be my one critique - he shouts into the mic too often when the action is exciting. Scully's approach was more artful for radio.
  5. He's seems very steady - no 4/4s but very few 0/4. Only 2 games in July without a hit. Doesn't walk much though.
  6. Avila has said repeatedly that one of his priorities was finding guys that strike out less and walk more. Like everything else with Al, it's not his objectives, it's his execution.
  7. Consider that If they are teaching guys how to spin their breaking balls harder, they are also teaching them how to put more load on their UCLs. There is no free lunch in physics, Newton’s 3rd law is going to apply. “Every action has an equal and opposite reaction”
  8. quite the comeback for Lipcius, who was pretty much given up for dead before this year IIRC.
  9. fair question.. Whether throwing at FCL or the like would count as throwing competitive innings I wouldn't speculate. Obvious he is going to continue doing some kind of throwing
  10. I think that is off the table. Well - Hinch thinks it is anyway. The way he talked about 'not being in the room' on the trade negotiations was interesting.
  11. fricking Christo-nationalist conservatives have no idea how small a minority they really are because the damn disinterested in the middle and prog purists won't vote until they see the roof caving in.
  12. 85 on the 27th with the Hens, but he's been in trouble enough tonight I wouldn't send him back out there (Sparky's rule). Hinch may well.
  13. That should be it for Manning. He kept his team in it even with the questionable D behind him. Like Hongbit noted, we need to see the velo get better, but at least he's pitching again.
  14. Wilmer Flores with 4 IP of 1 hit ball as Erie wins one 1-0 on a Meadows HR.
  15. He's was coining off TJ, so last year you could cut him some slack on the arm for maybe not having rehabbed it thoroughly enough, but that's no excuse this season. No way you can play OF in the big leagues if you can't do better than those last two. He's getting his shot and blowing it.
  16. if true worse than making a bad throw. They don't pay you to be off-guard on the baseball field! 😡
  17. Well that's one way to make sure Al leaves. He never wanted he and Alex to work in the same org!
  18. Agreed, but OTOH you can't write off where his velo might be after a few dozen more IP quite yet.
  19. So Manning give up the solo, the other run and extra pitches are on the D.
  20. geez Akil. I could have thrown him out from there. ...And I haven't picked up a ball in years!
