    And I'd like to draw attention to a special achievement. A few nights ago, Drew Gagnon threw a complete game, two hit shutout against Tacoma at Las Vegas. Wow! Just, wow! A tip o' the virtual hat to that one. Later

    Peter Alonso went 4-5 last night, with 2 HR and 4 RBI. Since his mid-year promotion to Las Vegas, he has 20 HR and 65 RBI. The only place he's "Leaving Las Vegas" to go to will be the AFL. Sigh. Later

Just happened to see this today in my horror scope, but have not verified it: Amelia Earhart said, "Preparation, I have often said, is rightly two-thirds of any venture". Or, I'll just cite the 6 P's. "Prior preparation prevents piss poor performance". Or, from my classes for my Masters in Project Management - "You have to have a plan, and a contingency plan". I'd like to see the plan. Later

You should just release Freddie Freeman and give Lucas the job. That's ridiculous!!! They're going to release Acuna and play Duda in LF Too bad, because I'm not sure the Wilpons can afford Acuna .. oh wait! I forgot the cash coming back from the Phillies in the Bautista deal. Yeah. they could afford him. Now let's see it happen. (S/M = 93.7) Later

And if they move him to first to make room for David, what happens to the Bruce experiment at first base? If they activate him, the insurance, which pays about 75% of his salary, would stop. The pro-rated remainder of this year's salary is around $2.4 million. Is it worth it to pay him $2.4 million to be a pinch hitter? As for recouping the money, will his fans go out to the ballpark to root for him if they don't know if they'll see him in the lineup? Lots of questions, not sure about the answers. Later

    I predict that in that dry desert air against some pitchers who played in A ball this year, Alonso will hit at least one home run that will not only make your TV screen but also radar screens at NASA. Later

    He's starting to hit like the back of his baseball card says he should. And that's not necessarily a bad thing. After a slow start, they are starting to get what they paid for. At an OPS+ of 101, his career OPS+ of 110 isn't out of reach. Later

    What a dick. https://www.khou.com/article/news/nation-world/red-sox-star-jd-martinez-defends-pro-gun-instagram-featuring-hitler/285-588614679 Whether you are for or against guns (or for or against anything for that matter), there has to be a better support of your position than Adolf Hitler.

    Chico Fernandez. He [crossout:2u5ufz29]led them to the World Series[/crossout:2u5ufz29] was on the 1956 team. You had to be there. Later

    I read they will have until sometime today to finalize the deal. Until then, this thread feels creepy, like grabbing the shovel while the body still has a pulse. Later

    Daniel Murphy. Later

    Nice. Thanks. Later

    Have they announced what happened to McNeil? Later

New Scandanavian Cooking on my PBS station is how they brew Swedish coffee. 60 grams of coffee for each liter of water. They visited Costa Rica and Columbia to show how it is grown and harvested.

    bmfc1 wrote: Crap, something is wrong with McNeil. The Mets need their best hitter! Triple crap. Neither Kelenic (Kingsport) nor Alonso (Las Vegas) played last night, and Kelenic is isn't in there today. And now McNeil? Its a conspiracy against the entire Mets organization. And I think its being orchestrated by Vladimir Putin. Or maybe not. OE: Alonso is back in the lineup today. Never mind. Later

    oe: and I also wondered how Tom Cruise was injured worse, during the stunt itself or in falling over himself to let the news accidentally leak out that he was injured doing his own stunts. Oh, snap! Later
