    His control was alright. He just pounded the zone with too many predictable fastballs. So yeah, I think a mediocre offspeedy pitch could help, keeping batters a little more honest. My concerns are: (1) him having the cahnfidence to throw it, especially (a) after it fails him the first time, and ( with a catcher still figuring shit out; and (2) Terry may be a little emotional over BP's failure last year and reluctant to promote him to high leverage spots again even if he initially succeeds. There's been enough redundancy (if not necessarily quality) been thrown into the bullpen this season that I'm not expecting a crisis big enough for him to get promoted back to the closer role any time soon, but I can envision sometime late this summer him having established the ability to make folks miserable in the eighth. Something akin to Jon Rauch six or so years ago. I can also see Terry pulling a Jerry and rewarding his success with over-frequent appearances that dampen it. 5-3, 2.93, 19 holds, 3 saves. 77 IP, 92 SO, 35 BB.

    Depends on whose doing the expecting. If you expect him to arrive before he's expected, he's expected, to hammer a semantic point. It's the nature of reinforcements. Virtually all arrive before you would like them to. Because their arrival comes in response to an unwanted breach in the line. But I think wise teams leave breachable spots in there --- not bad players, so much as players they have little commitment to beyond tomorrow --- and so leave places for the coming talent to manifest itself.

    I envisioned such meaning in those standings that I formed in my head a spring training championship match --- the top record in the Grapefruit League meeting their Cactus League counterpart (an easier title to bag, to be certain) at the end of camp in some sunbelt AAA stadium looking to put on a showcase for their big league aspirations: New Orleans, Louisville, San Antone, Phoenix. Maybe even Miami! We'd get great quotes like, "Coach wants to hold me to 80 pitches, saying to save it for the season. I say, 'Coach, I want to win.' A championship's a championship. You bet we take it seriously. Let's play some baseball."

    The Eau Clair Boppers don't think that's very funny.

    Seventies was an existential landscape, man. Society crumbling all around, and a post-modern cowboy wandering between outposts looking for meaning or merely survival. I think you could do well by narrowing this down. You've got lone man at the wheel type of films, but also the ensemble-in-single-vehicle road movies, and ensemble race movies. You've got sociopaths and healers. You've got cars and bikes. You've got farces, comic romance, and dark action. People on the run and people making a run. Off the top of my head I can think of a dozen films that fit right in. Lots of different archetypes. Though I certainly salute your plowing through.

    The story goes that they threw a dart at a U.S. map. I get the idea they selected their pants somewhat similarly.

    Carlos Guillen, microfacture surgery case. Retired. King of the walkoff drag bunt.

    Reading about everyone else's injuries definitely brings some perspective.

    We really need Wolfie to rule on all this tying going on.

    Nimmo walked and scored a run. Isn't he like 14 years old?

    Oh, and Mets come back to beat St. Louis 8-6. Justin Turner tweeted Johan was a joy to play behind. Get your head in the game, Jus'.
