I was thinking we need a lefty bat off the bench. After Valedespin made our last out today, I'm REALLY thinking we need a lefty bat off the bench.

Came out of retirement to scab a little during the 1994 strike. Marge Schott tried to make him a model of what a real ballplayer is with the loyalty and the love of the game. Of course, he became a model of what a fake ballplayer is with the washed-uppiness and all, and it lent a meaningful discredit to the rest of the scabbbers. I guess I should have appreciated the latter turn of events, but the affair was just so loaded with a plantation dynamic that it was more than a little sickening.

I tell you, I was sitting here alone with my wife downstairs. When the final strikeout was recorded, I put my hands together for what I thought would be a clap. It extended into three claps. "That's enough" I thought, but my hands wouldn't stop going. "There's nobody here for your claps to be speaking to" I thought, but it felt better and better to keep going and going. Twenty, thirty claps, all alone, for no reason. Something just kept pouring out of me. Very strange, acting the fan at a level I never knew I had, never knew existed. Only comparable moments would be the Agbayani homer and the Ventura homer, both watched at home, but even those I had my wife beside me and the TV in front of me. For me and Johan, it was just the dark night and the radio --- and 40 years of fandom.

Terry reveals in the post-game that Rauch is dealing with tenderness, and he'll have it looked at. Where is it? Tenderness Where is it? -
Well, if there are web pages that say that superstition is good, then it must be true. Many of which are professional journals and academic theses. Does this really have to be a divisive issue? Is there any human on earth who feels he or she was poorly served, deceived, or left confused by Howie Rose?

Santana keeps the Mets streak alive.

When there's a no-hitter going on and the announcer paid to tell you what's going on avoids saying that there's a no-hitter going on then, yeah, that's verbal gymnastics. Come on. Is this really an issue of him not earning his pay?

Two guys left on the bench. Valdy becomes the pinch-runner maybe if one of our umberhulks gets on base. So this may all come down to Satin.
-
Another successful thread!
-
There was no verbal gymnastics. It was clean, neat, and clear. Silly? Sure. It's baseball. No animals were harmed however.
-
There certainly wasn't lack of clarity. Not to be coy, but whether you believe in a superstition or not, there's an upside to honoring them.

What we kinda need right now is Baxter, strange to say.
-
I think a surfeit of talent is a problem that takes care of itself. Meanwhile, tying run at plate. His name be Duda.

You had to be there.

See, the Cardinals have their lead of the series.
-
Nyjer Morgan on an obscenely hot streak, with RBI in each of his last two games --- giving him a grand total of ... two.
-
Yup. Plenty of honest and illuminating ways to play that game for an old pro like Gary. And he was dead on. The last two innings, Duquette barely said a dozen words.
-
Ah crap.

I thought you liked Wes. It's through you that I learned the key fact that he had no take sign because take was the default until you got a sign that it was OK to swing. That lone fact feeds me like 75% of my perception of Wes Westrum.
-
He and Brett Favre are linked in my mind as dudes with dyslexic consonant combinations.
-
I like that he's wearing a Mets insignia on that plaque.
-
That hat doesn't lend one confidence. Not this one, at any rate. Thanks for the scads of money though, Bil. I wonder if Justice Kagan wants to reconsider her opinion.

I imagine the News has a liberal policy that allows him several weeks to act as primary caretaker.
