  1. I hope you're right and he is healthy. Later
  2. Please don't get hung up on the word surgery or the position he plays. My point was that arm injuries can be cured while back pain can be chronic. When I said too bad, I meant that it was too bad it wasn't arm related because I would have been more confident that he is fully cured. Back pain can continue to flare up. Later
  3. Mattingly? Not ringing a SIM Score bell. Who did he pitch for and when? He was bothered by recurring back problems for years, regardless of the position he played. No SIM intended. I could have used David Wright as an example if I had thought of him first. Later
  4. I had never heard of Jacoby Long. I looked him up to see if is related to one time prospect Terrence Long. There was no info on that but I discovered that Jacoby had played minor league ball at Woodstock (Valley League). We need someone who played at Woodstock because ... well, just because. Later
  5. Had back surgery and missed an entire season and part of another some years ago. I forget the years, but I read that this morning. I know this sounds cruel, but too bad. If it had been an arm injury, some pitchers snap back even better after TJS. But backs are more iffy (see Mattingly- his pained him for years). Later
  6. I would do it if we could swap out Megill for one of those two youngsters and sign Tarik to an extension. I'd keep Sproat and let Tong go. But that's just me. Later
  7. That big gap between ML appearances makes me think he was injured. Later
  8. Are we voting for who we think might get elected or who we would vote for if we were voting them into the hall? I voted the latter. Later
  9. The Braves struck a deal to hire Walt Weiss as their next manager on Monday afternoon, the team announced. Weiss, who has been the team's bench coach since 2018, will replace Brian Snitker as their manager. Later
  10. One more thing to be considered. Diaper Don has said that Clemens belongs in the hall. (They've played golf together). And since some ballplayers (and other possible voters Edgy mentioned) tend to be conservative, that might sway their votes toward the fat coward, bat tosser getting in. Later
  11. Ohtani vs Scherzer for game 7. Buckle up. This is gonna' be a bumpy ride. Later
  12. The spawn of Satan won on Halloween. Later
  13. See 22 across. Later
  14. Or, like us, he wishes he could ignore its existence. Later
  15. Did they have both French and English versions? Later
  16. Sidle up to all the GMs and go,"Psst. Wanna' buy a damaged lefthander?" Then, as soon as one answers positively, make a deal on the spot. His 2024 ERA of 3.47 seems to be an outlier among his 2020-2025 3.90 and over 4 ERAs. Sell while the other GM feels his pitching coach and/or medical staff can get him back on track. I'm not sure he can return to the numbers of that one good year. Make him someone else's problem Later
  17. The Nationals are reportedly hiring Blake Butera as their manager. https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/article/nationals-reportedly-hiring-33-year-old-blake-butera-as-new-manager-142054191.html Later
  18. All year I didn't get why the Jays are good. I'm still not sure I get it, but, to use a 'ockey term, "they work". Later
  19. Christopher Antonio Suero Is a homie - a Bronx born 21 year old with a world of potential. His calling card is his ability to catch as well as play first and the outfield. He played at Brooklyn and Binghamton this year, demonstrating both power (16HR) and speed (35 sb). If he can improve his contact rate a bit, we'll be seeing him up here soon. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=suero-000chr Welcome to my house, Kid. Make me proud. Later
  20. About Ohtani: To quote Rachel Weisz in The Mummy, "He's mortal". And it was fun to find out. Later
  21. She was elected team president of the Mets and named to its board of directors. She became the first woman to direct the day-to-day operations of a Major League baseball franchise. RIP Later
  22. I think they said the first guy would be "hitting coordinator" so it sounds like the coach would be below him on the org chart. Later
  23. Springer was injured (rib strain?) and may be out for the series. Later
  24. Frayed Knot wrote: And there's a rumor going around that when David Stearns saw all the pitchers being used he made six roster moves in time for today's game just as a reflex. Bring back the BOC Later
  25. Klein was clean shaven at the start of the game. Later
