Looking for game thread vols for Jun 20 and 21 v CHC, and Jun 27 and 28 at MIL.

 

As always, PM me to volunteer, please.  

 

Thanks to JB for taking this weekend!  Well done...as expected.

 

I was happy to take Friday but am glad that Saturday and Sunday were already taken!

Prolly should be your default opinion,  without good reason to think otherwise...

Ok. Setting default opinion to...

 

"I hadn't thought of that." (or was it people aren't serious? Shoot, i knew i should be paying closer attention))

 

3-1 halfway through the second.

 

CBU.

Scratch that. third.

 

I came in an inning late...

[Craig Arko]

I'm always serious. Especially when I'm not.

[USAFChief]

Surely you can't be serious.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

"Surely you can't be serious."

 

(to quote an oft quoted film once more...)

[USAFChief]

Rosario got caught lollygagging.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Surely you can't be serious.

Punched to the beat.

 

And they scored to make it 3-2. That'll learn me...

This is what's going on in 'my neighborhood' this weekend:

Needless to say it brings with it a very eclectic clientele and sounds. The first on the list is the most annoying in terms of sound. It's a constant rumble … like standing right next to a freight train going by.

 

[USAFChief]

Escobar in the outfield.

 

If he just puts his glove up, it might have fallen into it.

I'm blaming Hunter.

[Craig Arko]

Plouffe looking very Gaetti-like there.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

What was it...

 

3-3 after 3?

 

That's 3 3s.

 

CBU is pernounced cube.

 

(er, half an inning late... i type slowly...)

[USAFChief]

 

I'm blaming Hunter.

Along with the 13 man pitching staff.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I'm blaming Hunter.

Does that mean Escobar now gets the forks?

We could end up worse.

[Craig Arko]

I'm blaming Hunter.

And the Washington Senators - twice over.

nerd.

 

let's see if anyone gets the reference

[USAFChief]

You picked a fine time to turn back into Mike Pelfrey, Mike.

[Squirrel]

sigh. I might just go to work early. Noise from all directions is driving me nuts.

[JB_Iowa]

Pelfrey not "on"..

 

Defense not good.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Does that mean Escobar now gets the forks?

Note to self.

 

When Hunter is back, i can probably make some joke about him being crazy like the forks...

 

It might be funny. Maybe. If i don't mess it up.

[Squirrel]

lol … spinowner will (if he reads this.) It was one of his favorites as a young child, so I'm told.

[Squirrel]

Okay … i gotta get outa here … this noise from that damn spring awakening thingie is making me ill.  Later all ...

[USAFChief]

Never would'a seen THAT coming.

[USAFChief]

Why take him out now?

 

 

[Blake]

I'm going to write a book about Baseball. It will be named: "The Cruel Season."

 

It is astounding how fast a game and possibly a season can unravel.

[Kwak]

...that new thread about the starting pitching... . Poor timing. Jinx?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

So that's what a crooked number looks like.

 

Hope the Twins bats have been paying attention...

[JB_Iowa]

Time for my nap.
