    I have a Facebook friend in Milwaukee and she says there was 10 inches of rain in a short time and her basement is completely flooded. I'm not sure they will be able to repair all the damage to the roof quickly. Later

    They're all playing like they're on the Brewer payroll. Later

    They got two new high leverage relievers at the deadline. And we still get Stanek. I think Rob Manfred is running this team. Later

    Mariano Rivera tore his Achilles during today's Old-Timers' Day game. He will undergo surgery next week. Later

    Pena went 1-2 today (a double) and has brought his average up to .299 (with some power) His OPS is .924. He's starting to show why he gets a high ranking on the prospect lists. Later

    I threw goat entrails under last night' sturgeon moon. Let's see if it broke the hex on their bats. In the meantime, does anybody want to buy a disemboweled goat? Later

    C'mon folks. we need some new karma. Somebody new try their luck on the IGT for today's "bullpen" (ugh) game. Later

    =metirish post_id=200733 time=1754738150 user_id=72] Losers of 9 of the last 10 games , unacceptable, Gelbs keeps banging on( and has for a good while ) about how this offense is too good for this , so annoying

    Blackburn started tonight for Syracuse, so he won't be brought up for at least a few more days. Later

    Rockumentary about a band that doesn't exist? How about This is Spinal Tap. Later

    I always liked the stories he told and the intricacy of the music he used to tell them. But I never really concerned myself with the back stories of any of the musical artists I liked. So I wouldn't be interested in this movie. Later

    He's still hitting. He finished the FCL season with a line of .284/ .400/.369/.769 in 49 games. Later

    Umpiress

    MFS62 replied to Edgy MD's topic in New York Mets Talk

    And if you saw him work, you'd quickly realize that Angel Hernandez wasn't an umpire, either. Later

    Yaddy f-ing Molina may be coming back. For a while. https://sports.yahoo.com/article/cardinals-yadier-molina-intriguing-opportunity-160850256.htmlhttps://sports.yahoo.com/article/cardinals-yadier-molina-intriguing-opportunity-160850256.html Later

    The Mets have had eight games in the last fifty in which the starting pitcher has pitched six or more innings. And David Peterson was all eight. Later

    1960 I was at one of those two All Star games, and I wasn't hallucinating. 6-0 NL. Vern Law was the winning pitcher, Whitey Ford the loser. All the legitimate All-Stars were in it. Here's the box score: https://www.baseball-almanac.com/asgbox/07131960.shtml It was real. And many of the players were multi-timers, It was as real to me as it was to any other 17 year old in the stands. It was a thrill to see them all, including some we never got to see too much (before interleague play and nationally televised games on cable). It was a way to provide that opportunity to those who might not otherwise have one. It might not be as exciting these days. Later

    Maybe the pitchers are doing poorly the third time through the order because the cause effect premise they are using is wrong. The pitchers aren't being prepared to do it in the minors (re: Edgy's post about Tong in another thread). They are on pitch/ innings counts in the minors, so their arms don't have the stamina built up to pitch beyond that. This argument is like the old joke about the scientist who cuts the legs off a frog, yells "jump" and the frog doesn't move. So the scientist concludes that when you cut the legs off a frog it goes deaf. It isn't the pitchers. It is the player development system that doesn't prepare him to do it, the organizational system that doesn't allow him to try and the managers who are reticent to test their theory. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy. Later

    Kodai Senga 7-3 2.31 Brandon Woodruff 3-0 2.22 Game time: 8:10 Later
  22. MFS62
    Brandon was named International League pitcher of the month for July. His numbers: 🔸 5 starts 🔸 27 IP 🔸 0.67 ERA 🔸 0.81 WHIP 🔸 33 K 🔸 14 H Later
  23. MFS62
    Gavin Williams threw 126 pitched and looked pretty darn effective that third time through the order. (Disclaimer - he was doing it against the Mets) Later
  24. MFS62
    He was the winning pitcher (2-0) today. He pitched one hitless inning and struck out the side. Looks like the injury that had him on the IL has healed (knocking wood). Welcome back, kid. Later

    =Centerfield post_id=200542 time=1754528152 user_id=65] The problem is they have three games coming up in Milwaukee. And the pitching matchups suggest getting even one is going to be extremely difficult. They're already down 4-0 in the Saturday game.
