geesh - getting close to time to forfeit the rest of the season and convert the BP area to an infirmary.

Welp, that puts the nail in the standing pat coffin. We are definitively selling even if we win the next four.

You really do have to wonder about Riley’s durability going forward regarding his wheels.

I'm getting concerned about the of string of hamstrings. It's sounding like something needs to be addressed in conditioning/strength/flexibility work.

[IdahoBert]

This game is beginning at 5:40 PM Central. That seems totally bizarre to me. Is everybody’s Mom in Minneapolis-St. Paul sending them to bed early for some reason?

Someone on mlbtraderumours mentioned his stride as a potential concern. Like he's running on tip toes to compensate for something.

Riley is definitely a forefoot runner, though I've never heard anything to the effect that made you more susceptible to hamstrings. OTOH, being a forefoot runner is something that I've heard at least one Tiger analyst (it was either Scales or Maybin) say that reduces the chance of a bouncing head making you lose a fly balls at the end of long run. Back in the day I was a forefoot runner and I can say I never had a problem losing fly balls at the end of a long run so it made sense to me.....

Gibby has mentioned that too.

[RatkoVarda]

I don't think they are rushing Carpenter back, maybe out all year; Riley on IL; Tork at Toledo; these 3 were supposed to anchor a blah line up - now all out

They do the 6:40 home starts on Friday.  They offer happy hour drink specials hoping the young professionals start their weekend of binge drinking at the ballpark.
