Through all this , has anyone mentioned giving him an eye test? Maybe he isn't picking up the spin on the breaking ball as well as in the past. Later

(tongue only partially in cheek) When Ike was in college, he also pitched. IIRC, he could throw 93-94 MPH. If the can't correct his swing, why not try a reverse-Ankiel and put him back on the mound? He couldn't be any worse than Robert Carson, right? Later

He pitched well, but lost 2-1. He left with a 1-0 lead, but Josh Edgin gave up hits that allowed the two runners to score. That was the second straight time Edgin has inherited runners from Montero and allowed them to score. He did it in Montero's last start in Binghamton. What's Spanish for "keep that guy out of my games?" Later

Last night: 3/4 2 2B RBI. He's now up to .320. Later
-
He was brought up to Las Vegas for a "spot start" last night, but the game was rained out. I hope he starts for them tonight. Later

I'd prefer a righty bat with similar productivity, but any port(as in any bat) in a storm. If this team adds many more lefties, FOX will refuse to cover their games. Later

Worth the wait. Later

So, ... far so good. I have to go to work and will check back late tonight. You're so on a roll. Later

Waitaminnit! I got duped into clicking on this. It was just another baseball card thread, cleverly labelled to lure us in. Later
-
I dreaded this game. This morning, the weather forecast for Chicago was cold and raw, with possibility of rain. I remembered it was under similar conditions there that Paul Wilson first injured his arm. That's a sigh of relief you hear. Later
-
Whew! Clicked on this thread by accident and thought it was a continuation of the "how cute is Recker?" discussion. Then I saw the picture. Primo. Later

Did you have the answers before you looked in the envelope for the questions, oh Swami? Good job. Later

If they featured Bo Jackson or Dion Sanders, did that count as one of each (baseball and football)? Later

All Star Game--Rivera: You Knew This Was Coming

IT'S NOT YOUR FUCKING STADIUM ASSWADS. The biggest insult in all of this is that someone in the MLB front office or in some network ivory tower actually thinks that we want to see Jeter. I hope he does make it, so that the fans can boo the living shit out of him every time he emerges from the dugout or his name is announced. Later -
TheOldMole wrote: Carl Furillo. Because I'm still a Brooklyn Dodger fan. Do you remember Gino Cimolli? He was playing right in a game at Ebbets Field and tried to throw a runner out going to third. He was a bit over eager, and the throw went into the upper deck behind third base. (At least the throw was on line) Later

Scott Kazmir. (And I posted this before I went to that other thread) Later

I'd ask a Shaman to bring Wahoo McDaniel back from his grave if I thought it would help the Jets. Why not sift through the ashes to find some remaining fire for the Mets? I'd give Wang a shot. His best pitch is a sinker, so he might survive without having to rely on the outfield defense very much. Later

Swan Swan H wrote: Rusty could throw his first time through town. Toward the end of his career, Joe DiMaggio had a sore arm. But during the warmups before the first game of every series, he would uncork a strong throw, so the other team could see it, and not take liberties with his arm during a game. They didn't know that he was masking his arm that couldn't do that again for another few days. Later

Dave Kingman belongs on that list. Later

Wilmer Flores started at first base last night for Las Vegas. Later

Edgy, why do you even deign to associate with Yankee fans? Its not healthy for body OR mind, even if you have a strong gag reflex. Later

IGT, 5/11/2012, PIT @ NY(N), Liriano vs. Niese

I was at work and missed all the fun. Was Banner Day held before the game? If it was held after this game, there would have been some doozies. Later
