Gotta be Archer, no? He's in his 30s.

You think that's impressive? He scored 61,237 runs in his career.* And Chief had him on his fantasy team a couple of those years, I believe. 

 

*I don't know what that means, either.

I was hoping for 64 thousand or more. 

 

Bum

That’s a major league play

I think that humans had moved out of caves before they developed bows and arrows, so I'll go with Cave. (Chief might remember...)

Off to dinner. Don't let the Red Stockings off the floor!

Tell the Mrs we here at TD salute her.

Pssst, make sure you have some “protection “ tonight, you know, just in case.?

[USAFChief]

Just a tad off the end if the bat

Archer is 33, turning 34 on September 26. Jake Cave is 29, turning 60 on December 4. The salt and pepper look ages a person 30 years.

Wow, first I get a drought busting rain all day and now the twins are rolling. What a day

Heh. Just wait'll that salt and pepper turns to just salt.

Jake Cave is damn close to that. I’m older than him, and still get carded everywhere I go. I’m a bit envious of people who can grow thick beards like him.

Ish

Rocco better get someone up in the pen. The end is getting real close for Archer.

[USAFChief]

Ruh roh.

REALLY don't like the walk there

 

[Vanimal46]

It’s about to be September and the FO still can’t come to the conclusion that Archer is a reliever.

Just make sure your weapon is registered and not concealed.

Or at least a glorified opener.

[Vanimal46]

Much needed double play there. Still doesn’t change the fact that Archer breaks down after 3 innings and can barely manage 5 innings.
