Just wanted to say somewhere that seeing the "should never have traded Arraez" thread makes me think of the Sondheim son which starts "[i] should never have gone to the theater", aptly titled "it would have been wonderful."

But as i was late to the now locked thread, i'll mention it here. (but let someone else track down a youtube link if i have not sufficiently identified it.)

I wonder if Rocco is waiting on word about Kepler/Gallo. Kepler hasn't played since Monday and if he were ILed, he'd be eligible to be back in a week.

"Side soreness" for Gallo. 

At least it's not "bilateral."

Our new training staff is off to quite the impressive start.

How is this on the staff?

How is it not?

 

It's literally their job to prevent this type of bs.

 

 Broken bone? Not anyone's fault. 

 

"Soreness," strain, "bilateral weakness," pull, fatigue, etc etc. ... somebody's not doing something properly.

People get hurt. Not sure how that's controversial or anyone's fault. 

Nobody's ever at fault, amiright?

When injuries strike, they seem to cluster. It seems that left handed hitters have the bug right now (Polanco switch hitter)--Polanco, Kirilloff, Kepler, Gallo--five days already on Kepler. How long do they wait before recalling Wallner?

I'm a little disappointed we don't have Wallner up. And that he's not playing some first.

This is what bugs me. Not that injuries occur, because they do, but put Kep on the IL already and get Wallner here

All right … and Wallner up

Hopefully Wallner puts some pressure on management to address the reality that Kepler has stunk for 3+ years.

So... You're no longer bugged?

 

Life is good!

Life is good either way … it’s just a game. No more bugged by that than getting sent to jail in Monopoly 🙂

Bremer out with COVID?  Hope he gets better soon.  Not one of my favorite broadcasters, but I don't wish COVID on anyone.
