  1. Cubs ace, Justin Steele, out for the season with some kind of elbow surgery to follow. That kind of puts the baby bears at the front of the line in the Sandy Alcantara sweepstakes. The Cubs system is said to be "loaded" (Buster Olney).

So that earned Jung Hoo Lee the nickname 'Grandson of the Wind'. He was the KBO Rookie of the Year in 2022 * the elder Lee was a 13 time KBO All Star, six time GG winner, Korean Series MVP twice, four time Korean Lg champion
  3. =MFS62 post_id=189244 time=1744216661 user_id=60] Cory Ragsdale
  4. Done! [FIMG=300]https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0274/9854/5226/files/ram-paul-mccartney_1024x1024.jpg?v=1723553181[/FIMG] Hey, this McCartney guy is pretty good. Is there anything else of note he did?
  5. Baty & Vientos both just avoided having to ride in the luggage rack on the flight to Minnesota.
  6. Lots o' bad ATH defense all series.
  7. Taylor slid on his ass that time! And, now, not only don't I think that was a good call, I also don't think it's a good rule! And now, the removal of a runner on 3rd leads to a hit w/o-RiSP
  8. Acuña, professional base runner!!! KCmets, tardy poster!!
  9. Philly, tied w/the Mets for 1st in the East coming into today, got skunked 7-0 in StL so the Mets will fly to MIN with a full game lead if they hold on for the 'W' Wheeler = 4 ER over 6 IP
  10. All right, a two-out hit!! ... except that they saved it for the one inning where no one was on base.
  11. That FO to deep RF got an audible 'Uh-Oh' from me off the bat. But then it wound up about three feet short of an HR.
  12. Coming into the game today, the Mets have 18 hits and 35 RBIs in 117 ABs w/RiSP this season. Pete has five of those hits [1 single, 1 double, 3 HRs] and 14 of the RBIs
  13. Jung Hoo Lee = All-American Hero The Giants erased an early 3-0 deficit in Yanqui Stadium this afternoon thanks mostly to two HRs [solo & 3R] by SFG CF Jung Hoo Lee. Both came off Carlos Rodon and both were true YSIII specials by the lefty-swinging Lee which I'm sure annoys the hell out of Yanqui fans who believe the short fence is designed to help only their hitters. Born in Japan where his pappy was playing in the NPL, the Korean is in his second season with SF after his first one ended in mid-May due to a shoulder injury & surgery. SF is now 11-4, although Not in 1st place, wound up taking two of three in da Bronx despite getting thumped in the opener on Friday night in the cold and rain.
  14. The SACletics keep handing the Mets walks and errors and Met bats keep handing them back. Other than running up the pitch count on Severino, that was a waste of a half inning.
  15. No, Matsato Yoshii was a pitcher. You're thinking of OF'er Tsuyoshi Shinjo
  16. It seems rather odd that there are two ML players named Max Muncy, particularly that they're playing simultaneously. I mean, it's not a name like Bobby Jones, Bob Miller, or Luis Castillo. I think we need sportswriter Max Mercy to investigate this.
  17. This doesn't affect our starting time today since we're on the other coast, but I noticed that all the east coast games are pushed into 1:35 - 1:45 start times. Now I know that this was instituted several years back in order to give the designated national streaming game a partial window of its own. Problem is, there IS no streaming game today. So I guess the 1PM start time ban remains in effect so as to maintain consistency for those Sundays when there actually is a streaming game. I, on the other hand, just see it as the result of bureaucracy.
  18. Lefty Specialist wrote: Again with the sporadic offense. This offense hasn't been good enough to get called sporadic.
  19. Mets haven't made a single out past the infield so far today. All K's, GOs, Pop-ups, and one line-out. oe: Now they have (FO to short RF on their 19th out of the game)
  20. A's have JT Ginn, JP Sears, JJ Bleday, and TJ McFarland on their roster.
  21. Leadoff runner on again ... Dammit! This kills our chances of scoring.
  22. =ashie62 post_id=189528 time=1744491106 user_id=90] Vientos is really struggling
  23. So since Las Vegas is the AAA affiliate of the Athletics, when the club moves to Vegas will the AAA squad relocate to Oakland?
  24. Giants hang a 5-spot on the Yanx & Marcus Stroman in the 1st inning at rainy, cold YSIII. Stroman threw 46 pitches before being pulled after 2/3 inning: 2B, BB, HR, BB, BB, 2B, K, FO, 1B 5-0 heading for the 2nd Braves are in Tampa for the weekend tied 1-1 in the 4th after taking two of three vs Philly Phils in Cincy down 5-3 after 5 Nats @ Marlins, scoreless thru 4
