    Not sure such a whiffy guy should be our #2 hitter.
  2. Edgy MD
    We have a very winnable game here against a first place team.
  3. Edgy MD
    Bottom dropping out for Hefner.
  4. Edgy MD
    I'm just offering commentary for context. I'm not mad. But we must document it for those who survive us.

    Davis: 1-40. He can do 10 times as well as that and still not be doing so hot.

    BUCK[/bigpurple]ingham! BUCK[/bigpurple] Naked! BUCK[/bigpurple]minster Fuller Scholarship! The BUCK[/bigpurple] stops here! Hey, look! Ike flailing at the curve!

    Can't argue with Hefner's breaking stuff today.
  8. Edgy MD
    Byrd certainly gets around on this guy.
  9. Edgy MD
    Lucas bailing on a pitch down the middle.

    How about that aggressive baserubbing by Murphy? I thought he'd pull up with a hammie.

    Live chat with Recker the next half inning. TAPING! <<***SWOON***>>

    The low curve against Ike with two strikes was as predictable as the sun going down. The strange part is that they put it as high as his ankles, when it's a safe and sure move to bounce it off the plate. 1-39

    It's Atlanta's famed SHUFMUFUM lineup. They could probably get an anagram out of that if they worked at it.
  14. Edgy MD
    Even if the one is a Mannysworth of trouble, to go along iwth a Mannysworth of righthanded clobbering ability.

    I agree that there are perfectly basebally reasons not to call up Wheeler. But I disagree that calling up Wheeler tomorrow vs. two months from now doesn't change the the trajectory of the season or have meaning. If he's ready, he's ready. If he can help, he can help. Though I'm certainly not suggesting that either of those notions is true. He'll be up soon enough, and I'm not lamenting the lack of a ballplayer I feel entitled to. I am, instead, lamenting the diminution of naturally evolving progressive competitive baseball. Pitches and swings should be deciding the course of the game and the season, not bureaucratic loopholes. Who ever gave a curtain call to a bureaucratic loophole?

    Can't get our remaining obligation to Bay thrown in there also? LOSER!

    I just think, any day with a good player available to win games for you is a blessed day borrowed from eternity, and it may never be available to you again. Youth, athleticism, beauty. It's all so fleeting. I believe in the future and what it promises, but...

It's so damn deafeatest and limited in scope. If 2013 is fruitful, we will find a way to pay for the roster in 2018. If 2013 isn't fruitful, it won't matter how much money we save in 2018. It won't be enough. It's hard enough choosing between the needs of the team in the short term versus the needs of the player (and his ability to help the team) in the long term, when deciding whether to promote him. Adding this nebulous date that controls what he'll be paid years down the road --- IF he doesn't flame out or succumb to injury --- is folly. It over-complicates the decision, bringing in enough factors to paralyze you.

    Cue scoreboard photos.
  20. Edgy MD
    I'm really totally down on roster decisions being pinned to Super Two status.
  21. Edgy MD
    Remember, Collin, you dreamed about this your whole life.

    I like to think you could have somehow been briefer in your comments. As to Willets' point, sure, it's about direct conflict and relationships and identity stuff and personal redemption --- as opposed to themes of exploration and discovery and ending conflict by searching for a set of values that are truly democratic and progressive, that the various TV series often tried to represent. But I think this is basically true of the film series in general --- almost entirely, in fact, since the ambitious but turgid first installment in 1979. The medium of films --- self-contained little units that they are --- probably demand those sort of conflicts: an immediate threat, a decisive resolution. On a TV show, in contrast, a broader plotline or theme can develop over an arc of several weeks or months or years, if you're lucky. I think maybe that the films have been at their best, in that sense, when they were what the TV show wasn't. That Generations film kinda stunk. Would have maybe been a good few episodes of the TV show, though.

    Sounds like a Detroity win.

    Ungrateful spoiled brat is texting. seawolf17 wrote: I guess Miguel Cabrera could hit Yu Darvish, then. Six home run swings, all over the plate. The thing is that none of them are quite over the plate. All six are pretty much out of the strike zone, which tells me the place to pitch him is dead center. What did the Marlins get for him again?

    Plastic Man Robert Smith, still creeping me out.
