    We're unlikely to discover anything about JB over the next two months that we don't already know: great and versatile D, power but low OBPs plus high Ks and zero plate discipline. Not sure how anxious they should be to extend such an animal.

    I like how this thread is trending already ... and it's not even game time yet.

    Nats lost. Marlins lost. Braves lost (albeit to the Phils). ... and the Yanx lost to the BoSox again. So a good day all around.

    The still slugging 41 y/o Nelson Cruz [19 HRs, 907 OPS] to the Rays in a multi player deal. The Twins were expected to complete in the Central this year but aren't, and the Rays look to be in a season-long dogfight with the Sox for top spot in the East. I have no idea about the particulars in the deal but it's logical thinking at least for both sides.

    WHATTAYAMEAN there's no game today?!?!?!?? Fuckin' Biden.

    =seawolf17 post_id=72225 time=1626975783 user_id=91] Dude's stat line in his two appearances defies all mathematical convention - a 10.00 WHIP, a 62.18 FIP, and OPS against of 3.446.

    The Yanquis and their stadium "security" tolerated, if not encouraged*, this kind of behavior for years and are now, belatedly, trying to reign it in. * not officially encouraged as far as on-field stuff goes but allowed all sorts of borderline criminal shit in the stands. The wife of former Red Sox C Jason Varitek claims that a MFY fan spit on her 9 y/o daughter at a game last weekend

    I remember reading a book about chili -- well not a book book but some kind of reading on the subject -- that talked about how Cincinnati chili in general was unlike any other. It's like one could trace, almost genetically, the evolution where this led to that which led to something else as if it was almost like tracking human migrations. But it went on to say that whatever happened in Cincy was a left turn out of nowhere that had no logical parentage. Skyline, I believe, is merely the most popular/known version of this odd twist on an American favorite but that there are other varieties in SW Ohio which still are likely to be unlike what you/we/most folks think of as Chili.

    Two BADDDD base-running moves by Cincy have helped immensely. (the guy caught off 1st on the Sac Fly was the other)

    Annnnnnd we're at the three hour mark thru 7-1/2 innings despite a low-scoring game where most of the runs were scored via solo HRs.
  13. Frayed Knot
    NYM rally: get two on to start the inning, then go K, squib, squib and rely on luck to score once.

    =bmfc1 post_id=72075 time=1626822552 user_id=73] Why didn't they recall Blankenship to replace Peraza? They have a 3-player bench tonight. I'm guessing it's because Banda and May aren't available and Diaz is iffy.
  18. Frayed Knot
    OK, I give up, why was there just shy of three and a half minutes between the final pitch of the 2nd inning and the first pitch of the 3rd? They were supposedly going to more strictly enforce the 2:05 limit but instead this gap was nearly 50% longer than allowed and for no apparent reason.

    Banda, you're a fine man and your first win you did net. Quite a night for the eleven hundred forty third player on the Mets ... still needs some work
  21. Frayed Knot
    NYM = 1-4 on potential GiDP balls.
  22. Frayed Knot
    And still nobody out.
  23. Frayed Knot
    So at this point the best we can hope for is to get this game to the 11th
  24. Frayed Knot
    =bmfc1 post_id=71975 time=1626750015 user_id=73] What's the CIN C situation for the 10th?
  25. Frayed Knot
    The bad and the good of Diaz in a seven pitch span.
