    They're cylinder heads (the top of the piston in an engine), not paint cans. Later

    Dick Groat, 1960 NL MVP, 92. https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/pirates/2023/04/27/dick-groat-obituary-pittsburgh-pirates-world-series-duke-pitt/stories/201703210157https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/pirates/2023/04/27/dick-groat-obituary-pittsburgh-pirates-world-series-duke-pitt/stories/201703210157 My friend and I rooted for that 1960 club after our team left Brooklyn. We'd listen to them on KDKA on the big radio in my friend's house. Many of the players had colorful nicknames (Arriba, Dog, Deacon, Quail, Dr. Strangeglove) but Groat didn't have one. RIP Later

    He's throwing his Casper the Friendly Ghost ball. That's two 60's references in one thread. I think I'll stop now. I feel old. Later

    Right. It doesn't seem reasonable. Or fair. Later

Just guessing. The discovery of the Spider Tack happens out in front of the fans and (gasp) cameras. The discovery of the HGH is in a lab, with few prying eyes. MLB must feel the Spider Tack is more damaging to their image. The HGH suspension makes the next day's papers, but nobody reads them any more. That's the only thing I can think of. Is there a difference in length of suspension? Later

    Mackenzie Gore 2-1 3.43 Kodai Senga 3-0 4.29 I'm not sure if Gore is related to 60's pop singer Lesley Gore (from Queens) but I hope he has to cry at our party. 7:10 PM Later

    =kcmets post_id=123482 time=1682469249 user_id=53] Who buys something because of baseball stadium ads?

    Not bad. Not too good, either. But not bad. I'd have to see the size. Later

    It's Uceta and ankle sprains. wink wink I'll take "Sounds Convenient" for $200, Alex. Later

    "But that aside, let me say that I swear, on the souls of my grandchildren, that I will not be the one who will break the peace we have made here today." You beat me to that quote by about ten nanoseconds. LOL! Later

    Edgy MD wrote: "I swear on my kids' lives, I'm not using anything else. This is sweat and rosin. Sweat and rosin." Well, that's a firmer denial. There was a caller on either WFAN or ESPN radio who said he had mentioned that to a Psychologist. The Psychologist told him that is one of the text book things liars say. I'm not sure how credible this was, but interesting. Later

    Edgy MD wrote: The John Curtiss demotion didn't seem to be a very intuitive move, and I'm curious if they may be stretching him out to reintroduce him as a starter. When he was optioned, I read that they optioned Curtiss to work on the changeup he recently learned. They think it could develop into a very effective out pitch but needs more refinement. Later

    He deserves his own cheer, too. JOE-EEE JOE-EEE JOE-EEE Cheer him long and loud. Later

Did any Philadelphia A's fans care when they left for Kansas City as much as New York and Brooklyn fans felt when their teams left for the West Coast? I wonder. But they're Philadelphians, so I don't feel for them. Later

    He's only 33, he'd be a baby sitting alongside Justin/Max. Do they still make and sell Geritol? I remember as a kid it was heavily advertised but really have no idea what the hell it does or did. I dunno. It was one of the things I remembered from my past, too. I think they called them "tonics". Later

    Sign him and soon they'd be swapping out the Gatorade for Geritol. Later

    Wham bam, thank you, Pham. Later

    The TV advertisers must be practically orgasmic. They have a time delay that isn't limited by the new rules. How many commercials will they be able to cram into this delay time? Later
