    No closer. Just the starter.

    The best smiling photo taken of me in my (long) life was the result of the first shot of the session when I thought the photographer was still setting up his camera. He made some offhand remark that let me smile naturally. Unfortunately that can never happen again because, you know, fool me once...

    I'm the same way and so is my mom. There are numerous pictures of both of us that have "smiles" that were obviously forced and the result was not good.

    Yes, it's a balancing act. I think the game would be better with fewer strikeouts, fewer bases on balls, and fewer home runs. To that end the solution is theoretically simple, but the devil is in the details. Lower the mound, yes, but by how much? Move the pitching rubber farther from home plate, yes, but by how much? Enlarge the strike zone, yes, but by how much? Soften the ball, yes, but by how much?

    I've said this before--I watch Berrios' pitches on the center field camera and sometimes I don't understand how he allows any hits at all. I wonder if he simply does not have the mental discipline to throw good pitches consistently. It seems to me that there have been many times when he pitches well but just poorly enough to lose.

    Robles with a good audition for the scouts.
  7. Nine of twelve
    I was referring to Cruz' sac fly.
  8. Nine of twelve
    The ump was in excellent position to call that.
  9. Nine of twelve
    Clearly safe.
  10. Nine of twelve
    Where exactly was Hamilton trying to throw that?
  11. Nine of twelve
    A foul pop-up on a 3-0 count after there were already two walks in the inning. Sometimes the opposition makes ill-advised decisions too.

    Kirilloff had the ball in his glove and his foot on the base at the same time. Plus it looked like he tagged the batter-runner on the ankle just in case. Out.

    I don't think Falvey or Levine has an untouchable list, nor should they. Any player on the roster can and should be traded if the return is an upgrade for the organization.

    I'll split that a bit further. First 7 games: 5-2. At that point the accursed virus infiltrated the organization, which threw the entire organization and the playing schedule into chaos. Next 37 games: 11-26. Any and every person in the organization who declined vaccination is certainly responsible at least in part for that.

    Technically and otherwise, accuracy is a good thing.
  16. Nine of twelve
    Sano will be the default DH once Cruz is traded. Could be as soon as Friday.
  17. Nine of twelve
    And speaking of Jim Kaat I must add what a pleasure it was to have him in the booth for the last 10 days or so. He outshines every other BSN analyst by a wide margin.
  18. Nine of twelve
    And Jim Kaat was involved both then and now.
  19. Nine of twelve
    See, this was all part of the plan. First, the false jinx followed by the anti-jinx pseudo-mea-culpa.
  20. Nine of twelve
    How often does it happen that a player makes a great defensive play and then bats second in the next inning?
  21. Nine of twelve
    Bremergasm.
  22. Nine of twelve
    This commercial has made me want never to buy a Ford for the rest of my life.
  23. Nine of twelve
    When will I ever learn?
  24. Nine of twelve
    Where was this team during the last three months? We are unstoppable.
  25. Nine of twelve
    Are you kidding me? Of course I do.
