Has anyone heard or seen, for that matter, has Joey Gallo shaved his beard off?

Is Gant already here? That seems impossible.

I imagine quite a few people know.  I am not one of them.

Team looks lethargic.  Eyes staring off into space, jogging, instead of running. not a drop of sweat (St. Louis in July-impossible).

Sounds like me after a couple hits of Jameson, but I shamble instead of jog. Might shake something loose.

Never moseyed before, but I sashayed for the draft board once (apologies to City Slickers).

Sano scored a run!

Probably a little awkward sleeping in his own bed tonight after an away game.

LOL. How'd I ****ing forget who they're playing today?

It's been a long day, man.

You should start a thread in the 'Other Baseball' forum titled 'The beardless Gallo watch' ... or something like that

Simmons with the 2 out RBI knock. 

 

As expected.

Good thing we kept him around. 

[RpR]

Put Gant in he had 2 home runs in 2018.

 

[Squirrel]

Permeating everything underneath is this constant rumble and thump ... thank you, Lollapalooza, that awful, awful time of year, every year (except last year ... that was awesome)

[ashbury]

Wait, Griffin Jax just batted, in place of the DH? What kind of stupid minor-league nonsense is this? What next, ghost runners on second base in extra innings? Seven-inning doubleheader games?

Whaddya think Chief, time for an extension?

Yeah, just not to Simmons.

Driving in Sano from second base on a single, as expected.

Ummm...yes?

[Danchat]

Jax is showing strong command, but he just doesn't have an out pitch to strike guys out on. It's going to be hard for him to last in the majors throwing like this.

Didn't know he was loaded...

Depends on which dialect of spanish he speaks.

What would an "own goal" look like in baseball?

More importantly, does he have the proper permits?

[Cap'n Piranha]

This is the first I've ever thought of it, but I'm shocked more people haven't changed their last name to Vader.  A quick google search shows less than 1 in 500,000 people in the world have the last name Vader, with 77% of them living in, of all places, Asia.
