    God, GameCast can be unnerving. You know the pitch is in play, because the ball turns blue -- then you have to wait. The Reds' "win percentage" dropped to 61%, so you know it's something good. Then the little ball flies out to deep right center, and only then do you know that whatever happened, the run is coming home.

    I'd like to be the first to retroactively go on the record and say I told you all that I wanted this guy signed as soon as free agency started this offseason.

    I cried like a baby when Murph died. Sad, sad day for the Tigers community.

    Well, Ronkonkoma IS right down the road from my office, you know.

    Jerry -- on Mikey's show tonight -- said he's "trying to get Gary going." He's hoping to find a spot where he can slot him for Francoeur one night, then Bay the next, to see if he's going to be able to contribute anything.

    A rather quick contest, really. Good to follow folks on Twitter sometimes. http://whitesoxcards.blogspot.com/2010/05/contest-time.html

    Just won a contest on the White Sox Cards blog; I will soon be a proud owner of the 2010 SOM board game. Cancel the summer plans, Wolfette! Strat-O-Matic is coming!

    That's excellent. Come join us, Anastasia! We'll keep ABNS locked up. He's not as creepy as his avatar suggests, I promise.

"Next time we should try a real gun," Clark added. "Next time you should conveniently 'miss' and hit Chase Utley," I added.

    I think there's also the fear of failure. Remember Boston's "closer by committee" a few years back? You can't think outside the box here, because if you're wrong, you're going to get killed by the media and the fans, right or wrong. You need to have a closer, an 8th inning guy, a LOOGY, etc. Feckin' drives me crazy that a closer (I'm talking about you, Billy Effin Wagner) can't get three outs with a four-run lead because he "needs that adrenaline." Really, Bill? Just fecking pretend it's a three run lead, okay, jackass? Take your eyes off the scoreboard and put them on the catcher's glove. Manager says you're pitching, you get in the game and get your outs.

Doesn't mattuh. Tell yuhselves what you wan' aboutthis, Met fan. This series, it's yoooooge." -A particularly loud part of my superego which sounds a lot like a drunken Francesa. [francesa]YOU HAVE A SEASON NOW! YOU HAVE A SEASON![/francesa] I can't believe I listen to that blowhard. No matter what a caller said about the Mets after the game on Wednesday, that was his response. God forbid you actually listen to the callers, Mike. Ugh.

    I still desperately want one of the apple clocks they gave out a few years back. (Or even one of the apple banks they gave out this year. I guess I just want an apple.)

    The DH thing, however, is fuckin' stupid.

    They don't pitch in the game anyway, because their regular manager would shank the ASG manager; this just formalizes it and gives the manager a guy on the roster than he could theoretically actually use in the game.

    Totally agree. Let Reyes and Pagan and Wright triple into the gaps all day long.

    Ronnie was talking out in the stands with Kevin Burkhardt yesterday during the first game. He's not a small man. Actually, I don't remember where they were, but the guy standing behind them had one of these "I wish these meatheads would either move or shut the hell up."

    "Anything less than intentional"!?! Oh, for feck's sake, Klap. Get OVER yourself.
