Carpenter is a bit of a wanker I think, lots of gesticulating on the mound after an out. Dude's three innings from a WS ring. He can gesticulate all the hell he wants. And he's not going those three innings himself. Carpenter is a pussy. You would have had to pull the ball out of Bob Gibson's cold dead fingers. I think "the genius" is overmanaging again, just to show us how smart he is. Later

Not one of the ESPN "baseball experts" has compared this game to game 7 of the 1960 World Series. One of the most famous games in World Series history. The scores were similar, games were full of twists and turns, and were ended by a late inning homer by an "unlikely" hitter. Later

We don't need no steenking Aurora Borealis to light up OUR sky. There are enough bright young stars in Northern Queens. Later

Do the sources seem credible? Also, Eiland sounds like the Anti-Duncan. Later

And he has carried his hitting over to the Arizona Fall League: http://mlb.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?sid=l119&t=p_pbp&pid=501571 Later

Edgy DC wrote: I figure that was all required. The list of guys they need to add to the 40-man has to begin with Lagares, right? He may be a fringey prospect merely faking it in centerfield, but he's destroying AFL pitching right now --- and this would be the third straight league that has become his plaything. I agree, but he might have to learn to take a walk occasionally. Here are my kid's current stats: http://mlb.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?sid=l119&t=p_pbp&pid=501571 Later

Edgy DC wrote: I'm sure they'd love a minority candidate --- and will interview more than a few --- but I doubt they'll find one that's willing to operate in the best interests of the owners as the first, second, and sometimes third priority. If they are going to interview minority candidates, an interview should be offered to Frank Robinson. He has held just about every job in baseball (I don't consider ownership a job), including working for MLB. He might turn it down because of his age, but if he isn't on the short list, it would be a shame. Later

Edgy DC wrote: I would discourage any Canadian in Cuba from making inquiries about their ballplayers. LOL! Maybe you're right. Discreet isn't in his Canadian dictionary. Later

Edgy, my baseball fan Canadian friend will be vacationing in Cuba in a few weeks. Are there any baseball things you'd like him to inquire about while he's there? He usually posts pictures on the private portion of their website. I'll ask him to post them on the public forum as well. Later

Met-Lovin' Big Shots and Their Met-Lovin' Ways, 2011
MFS62 replied to Edgy MD's topic in New York Mets Talk
We could start a thread on "Words you see anymore". Toothsome would certainly be on that list. Then again, if they're on that list, we would have seen them recently. Oh well, back to MLBS. Later -
Met-Lovin' Big Shots and Their Met-Lovin' Ways, 2011
MFS62 replied to Edgy MD's topic in New York Mets Talk
I had to look up Kelli Garner. I don't think I've ever seen one minute of anything in which she has appeared. But she's a Mets fan, so I don't care. I love her. Later -
Edgy DC wrote: I totally agree that he looks really weak here throwing his bullpen coach under the bus. If Dave Duncan had gone out to the mound, told the pitcher what to throw, and the batter had hit that pitch for a game winning homer, would Tony have thrown him under the bus? I seriously doubt it. But then again, its Tony. Later

Dick Selma (are proper nouns allowed in this game?) Later

The NFL game is a quick rout (21-0). The WS game might get some decent ratings. Later

Listening to a late night game from Buffalo, and hearing that Igarashi's fastball was hitting 96 MPH on the radar gun. And being amazed. Later
