  1. It must be why in the post game interview, he would never say "I threw the wrong pitch", or " I hung one", or "I threw a good pitch and he just got it". It was always,"My mechanics were bad". Later
  2. Rosario swinging at the first pitch was irritating, but typical. I just found out that Frontier Communications will NOT be renewing their deal with SNY, so I'll be a fan on radio only (except for those dreadful ESPN and FOX games). Later
  3. Sadly, there is nobody in the minors about whom I could say,"It looks like he's ready, and if they brought him up maybe he could jump-start the team". Later
  4. Dominic Smith since the start of the season - very good. Later
  5. Just got the official MLB All-Star Ballot in my email and Pete Alonso is not on it. And I didn't see a place for a write-in or comments. Where do we protest? How do we protest? Where can we buy torches and pitchforks? So many questions. So little time until voting closes. Later
  6. Nice idea about World Series win, but then I'd like them to put a picture of what's under BVW's suit out on the Internet and have his embarrassment go viral worldwide Later
  7. Edgy MD wrote: It's absurd that a manager can strap one on in the third inning and speak to the booth (Channeling Fmann) I have no doubt that Mickey needs a strap-on. Later
  8. He was a teammate on the 1961 Pirate team with Wayne Goss, and I always thought Larry Foss and Wayne Goss on the same team was kinda' funny. RIP. Later
  9. Not exactly a scary 4-8. Later
  10. After five games for the 4-1 Kingsport Mets (he has played in 4), my kid has a slash line of .526/.550/.895/1.445 which includes 1 double, 2 homers and 9 RBI. Nice start, kid. Later
  11. I barely remember the name Norm Zauchin, an AL first baseman of the 50's. Never lived up to his rookie year. But I do remember hearing about Zeke Bonura. Even though he played before my time, I remember that Zeke had the reputation of (mis)fielding his first base position. Later, he was mentioned when stories were written about Marv Throneberry and Dick Stuart in the field. Both Norm and Zeke were righty hitting first basemen. Later
  12. =41Forever post_id=13845 time=1561239046 user_id=69] Flexen seems to have found a role.
  13. White Sox rookie Zach Collins hit his first major league home run Friday night. He is the son of my daughter's boss. Later
  14. "OK. Who snuck onto that trampoline? I told you not to do it on my watch." Later
  15. WTF is a pitching strategist? "OK, guys. Our strategy tonight is to not throw the ball where they can hit it". It sounds like it belongs in the Casey At The Bat 2019 thread. Later
  16. Benjamin Grimm wrote: The Brooklyn Dodgers used to play some home games in Jersey City, I think. Yes, in Roosevelt Stadium. And the Rays thought they were only going to move here: https://www.draysbay.com/2018/2/9/16994954/tampa-bay-rays-new-stadium-site-announcement-ybor-cityhttps://www.draysbay.com/2018/2/9/16994954/tampa-bay-rays-new-stadium-site-announcement-ybor-city This is going to piss off a lot of people who sold, or bought, bonds for that new place. Later
  17. It is sad what our beloved game has become. And the writer captured it beautifully. Later

My co-worker is a Mets fan, but admitted to me he was't quick enough to ask Paul if he was there to pick up steroids. Later
  19. Andres celebrates his first game in Appalachian League ball with Kingsport by going 3-5 with a dinger and 4 RBI. Later
  20. =TransMonk post_id=13439 time=1560900982 user_id=71] Yeah, I'd say this team is meeting my pre-season expectations, so I'm not terribly disappointed.
  21. SNY is not available on my Frontier Communications service, until they "re-negotiate the contract" (sez my not so friendly customer service person). He added, "It might be resolved by the end of the month." I'm not sure if that's good news or bad news. Later
  22. Paul DeJong is closing in fast on Gary f'n Pendleton, Yadier f'n Molina and Larry f'n Jackson on the list of Cardinals I have really despised over the years. Later
  23. Is she sure it's hers? Later
  24. Frayed Knot wrote: One more joke like that and I'll be asked to make my exodus. And just in time, too. There's no Leviticus in baseball. Is there any doubt that Rosario would have swung at the first pitch? Later
