  1. Working on some Hot Cross buns w/game on Houston radio.
  2. I have had Astros radio on entire day. Steve Sparks (pitched) sounds like the Blue Jays lead radio voice, Ben Wagner.
  3. I babysat the Dinos when they were pups.
  4. Stuff ankle rumors are built on.
  5. Don't feel alone. Radio commercials same ones for 10 years.
  6. Slow down guys. We old guys can't keep up this pace of posts.😊
  7. Bud lives in Houston. I saw one Houston game last year and asked him, "Who is that RockABaby pitcher? He is driving me nuts!"
  8. I think Farmer wants to file his taxes in Minnesota.
  9. The irony is that his scorecard reads 73.
  10. The old MLB trick of counting tix sold, not butts in the seats.
  11. I have long suspected this but haven't seen a written clue or heard a whisper on a podcast to corroborate my thinking. Regardless hope he gets it squared away. Likable young man.
  12. 10,000 fans. I lived in South Florida. It is baseball country. Huge Latin following yet this franchise can't figure out how to draw. What a way to mess up a viable market.
  13. Started 30 Mar. He signed w/Fukuoka SoftBanks Hawks, $1.35MM. Went 0-3 in first game.
  14. Have the WSox game on audio until Twins game comes on. Love Darrin Jackson's color/commentary (could be cross-posted to former Twins and where are they now).
  15. Jake is starting in RF for the Phils this afternoon (on Fox broadcast). I remember the first time I saw him. Sprinted to his position and off-the-field as well. Last game I saw him? Sprinted both ways still. Effort counts when talent is suspect. Reminds me of what my basketball coach whispered to me more than once.
  16. Pretty nice here. 70* and sunny, Taking in Arizona State vs Wash women's softball at 1pm tomorrow in Tempe.
  17. I would still argue that Donaldson had no leadership qualities whatsoever despite the vague references you cite. His behaviors, his actions, his interviews, his performance suggest he was nothing but a prima donna, masquerading as a self-appointed leader. With respect, don't force fit a non-leader into leadership category. We have all seen them at our worksites. Needn't do that w/JD.
  18. Pulled by Spenser Pence, not Posey. Just for the archives as I tune into the Mets'Marlins audio,
  19. I wrote him off in the middle of last year. The excuse of "the shift" got very tiresome. He (and many others) refuses to adjust their hitting style to accommodate the opportunities presented.
  20. Gibby lasted 5 against Kluber's Bosox before Hyde hooked him. IP H ER K PC-ST ERA 5.0 6 3 3 79-53 5.40
  21. for the Orioles. Somehow, this Winter I missed Gibson signing for the Orioles for $10MM on a 1-yr contract. Gibby as the #1 ace for the Orioles? Mercy. Game covered on MLB.TV for free on Thurs. https://www.mlb.com
