  1. Willi on a 1/16 and OPSing 585 against RHP, which is what Archer is, is a terrible fielder and terrible base runner. I don't know what (else) Hinch did he is so ashamed of but Willi clearly has the pics. 👿
  2. Between the ascension of Romanovs (1613) and Gorbachev, only one Russian ruler left office any way but feet first, and that was Krushchev. With Putin having taken Russia back into the same repression/corruption/stagnation status that has pretty much been its tendency for all but 20 years of the last few hundred, I guess we have to assume Putin is there till he dies, at which time he will probably be replaced by someone from the small cohort of similarly aged ex-KGBs that have stayed in his immediate orbit. Much like when the last of Brehznevs the post WWII group passed from the scene, only at that point are we likely to see an opportunity for another Gorbachev style generation shift and an opening for reform. Maybe it will last more than 20 yrs next time.
  3. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/05/23/russia-diplomat-resigns-united-nations-ukraine-war/
  4. Heaven forbid they eventually trade a young pitcher for a hitter and the pitcher has a decent career...
  5. The story said they had inserted HW into Kreidlers hand that obviously is staying in for now. I wonder if they will remove it in the off-season or if can be left permanently. Usually bone plates are meant to be left in but you wonder if you wouldn't be too constantly aware of it in your hand.
  6. Archer appears to be on a short leash this season. He hasn't gone more than 4.1 in 7 starts and Minny has lost 4 of them.
  7. Conservatives (who call themselves 'Liberal' in Australia - which sort of figures ) spanked in Australian elections by Labor (the actual liberal party) https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-61503380
  8. He's already been an assistant coach once right? Why would he wan't to be again?
  9. Edm fans may now have the record for most caps on the ice.
  10. Calgary doesn't look like the same team on the road, Edm putting it to them so far 3-0 in the 2nd.
  11. now 1 for his last 16 plus getting picked off.
  12. WM: Madden 5IP 3H 0R 1BB 3K. Keith 1/3 2BB; Perez 2/3, BB, 2SB. Caps win it 8-0
  13. I wonder if curiously, the way the battlefield has evolved, the best thing that can happen for the Ukrainian side is for Putin to keep pushing for more territory. The advantage in this war seem to be heavily tilted to defense, so it seems the highest probability for the Ukrainians to be able to attrit the Russian forces to the point of collapse is if the Russian keep extending themselves. If they were to consolidate and force the Ukrainians to try to push them back, they might have a better long term outlook. But so far from what I have read, Putin's still demanding more gains.
  14. LOL, Well, duh! "This could be a great player, he just has to start doing the things great players do!"
  15. Agree with you and MTU on Schoop,If I called up Clemens I'd give him maybe of 1/4 of the ABs Candelario is getting, 1/2 the ABs Harold is getting, and all of ABs Willi Castro is getting...
  16. Good friend just retired from a position as a long time network manager for a major IT firm. iPhone guy all the way.
  17. Red Wings and Hirose with a 2yr deal. Well, it a good thing that *that's* out of the way so will finally be be able to focus on a coach and the draft. https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/nhl/red-wings/2022/05/21/detroit-red-wings-taro-hirose-agree-two-year-contract-extension/9876271002/
  18. I really don't see why he's not up. Well, I do, it's Harold Castro. But Kody might give you a bit of pop that Harold doesn't. I think Kody has one less HR this season than Harold has for his career.
  19. Jobe with a clean 3rd but a got dinged by a 2B and HR in the 4th. Was done at the end of the 4th with the 2 runs allowed WM wins a pitcher's dual 1-0 behind Dylan Smith's 5 ip 3H 0R 0BB 4K. Keith did not play.
  20. you just know, if Candy or Schoop get hurt and they finally call him up, he will go 0 for 50.
  21. LOL - Avalanche get the empty netter before the Blue's goalie even gets off the ice.....
