Now that the Astros have been lulled i to a sense of security,... It is time to strike! (but not out. Nor for better working conditions)

 

Old tried but true: 5 things to think about, assuming it doesn't cause a stack overflow error, or something. (We'd have to wait for the official scorer to rule, though)

 

1. Knock knock jokes. They play off meeting folk for the first time. Yennier Cano finally got to throw his first pitch. And Contreras came in for Buxton. Welcome to the bigs! Maybe you can have your own knock jokes now.

 

2. Limericks. But i don't know... Will Puckett make us more or less likely to get in trouble for mentioning Nantucket? Pawtucket no longer has the team.

3. Pros and Cons. Discuss. Or not. Pretty sure they are all Pros at this level.

 

4. Haiku: 

It is my first time

In spiffy new Target Field

(So please, be gentle)

 

90 degrees, right?

Angle or temperature?

Either way, i'll live

 

5. Hats.

 

They can keep the sun off or the heat in.

Mine says "stovepipe" inside the brim, but i don't think Ben Franklin had this in mind. I would describe it more as top, which is where i hope the Twins come out on.

 

But as people like music:...

 

If they show a fan with a top hat, though, it is probably someone else.

 

Line ups to come eventually.

If Nick Gordon is now a pitcher and leads the staff in ERA then I'm not sure of anything anymore.

I mean, Bugs Bunny once played every position simultaneously, so I don't see any issue here!

In case there are any baby boomers in the readership today, here is a little earwig guaranteed to ruin your day.

 

Are you sure that's not just Paul Rudd on a fake album cover with the Milli Vanilli guys singing the song?

That's about as fair as it gets, I think.  

I have no smart-alecky remark to that.

Pffft. Young whippersnappers and their gol' danged long hair music!

Never heard that version before, but I couldn't help recalling how my uncle a retired police officer felt about the Beatles. He said they were the ruination of all society values. And when John Lennon was shot he said 1 down 3 to go
