    Anyone else tired of HRs and batter standing in box admiring their work. It seems Columbus has sailed over the edge of the map on this stuff.

    Is the vest gone? Didn't see Polanco having it on.
  3. Dave Borton
    Noted as well.

    I thought the Rangers radio booth was so bad I switched back to Gladden.,

    I would have taken a 6th in hindsight.

    Gotta' love Chicago. 2 people shot at last night's game. "Two people attending a Major League Baseball game were shot at Guaranteed Rate Field Stadium in Chicago on Friday night, officials said." https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/25/us/chicago-white-sox-baseball-game-shooting.html

    They lost -- Cleve and Texas seem determined to puke up their chances.

    Though we live in Como Park, we drive to the Presbyterian church on Larpenteur and shuttle in and out. Will do enough walking at the Fair; needn't walk to the gate.
  10. Dave Borton
    That is a good bar bet with some loudmouth at the rail.

    I am in St Paul. Will MLB.com black the game out on us?
  12. Dave Borton
    Our street in Como Park is jammed with you guys.

    Demolish and destroy him. Tail tucked between legs as he walks off mound in the 3rd inn .

    Never have been. But, oh, to watch him fly in CF. Now there is pleasure. Not justifying putting him in at DH or playing him if he is hurt. He has a body with a muscles and skeletal system which can't stand the rigors of the game. Poor on-field participation rate and offensive stats clearly reflect that.

    Had to chuckle. I am in the same boat but I realize that I "liked" Gardy and just find Baldelli unappealing on a variety of measures. There's bias which affects an objective assessment but... I can still dislike Rocco. <Winks>. Lots.

    They actually are 17th. .73 per game, down from .82 last year. Yeah, I was surprised as well. https://www.teamrankings.com/mlb/stat/grounded-into-double-plays-per-game

    Bald(sic)elli growing 'er in for Winter?
  18. Dave Borton
    Pretty bleak AAA Omaha attendance based on clips from behind home and right field/1st base.
  19. Dave Borton
    KC playing this card but the move will be to North Kansas City.
  20. Dave Borton
    Aren't the WSox satire personified?
  21. Dave Borton
    Sorry if I missed it.

    La Russa back in as a consultant, What a mess that franchise is. https://www.stltoday.com/sports/professional/mlb/cardinals/cancer-battle-behind-him-former-cardinals-manager-tony-la-russa-pitches-in-on-white-sox/article_b647158e-4213-11ee-ae37-63040913f22d.html Will Francona retire? "I need to go get healthy for my life, and this lifestyle is just too difficult," Francona said Wednesday. "I also know how I feel about doing the job a certain way, and I don't think I can necessarily do that anymore. And that bothers me." Baseball would miss him. Maybe we can lobby Cleve to pick up Popkins as field mgr since they need some punch (winks). https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/38247157/guardians-manager-terry-francona-planning-multiple-operations-mum-retirement

    Tragic, both personally as an injury and to the diminished contract coming up this winter. "But if he has to undergo a second Tommy John surgery, which has a much lower success rate than a first operation..." (From Bollinger's MLB article.) A nickel's worth of reading on 2nd TJ surgery shows a mixed bag of results w/Evoladi's success being held up as a high performing outlier.

    Something is amiss. Arraez is hitting .235 for the month of August.
  25. Dave Borton
    Tony gets company in Arizona. "CHICAGO -- The White Sox announced executive vice president Ken Williams and general manager Rick Hahn have been relieved for their responsibilities, effective immediately." https://www.mlb.com/news/ken-williams-rick-hahn-relieved-of-white-sox-duties
