    If Ben Ross is dreaming, it's a kangaroo kourt fine of $1000 to whoever wakes him up!

    Pro tip: when you say something kind, and then you feel the need to go on and type the word "BUT...." press the backspace key a few times and just hit Submit Reply and go on with your day.

    "OK, we lost a game Wednesday. If we lose today, it's called 'two in a row'. And if we lose again tomorrow, it's called a 'losing streak'... It has happened before!"

    I'm a big believer in hospice care, your family is doing a kind thing for him, and I will leave it at that.

    "Keep your eye on the ball." Bery bery good advice.

    I'll let you know sometime around August, September tops.

    And who knows. Someday the manager.
  31. ashbury
    Pfff. Not even 20%. 😁
  32. ashbury
    With more than 10% of the season now completed, it's a little late to get in on this lucrative action. Eleven wins in the bank obviously changes the odds. The highly professional sports book that I run will probably be crunching the numbers any day now to provide a revised betting line. Any. Day. Now. (All of which is to say: I don't take any prognostications seriously including my own. If I did, I certainly wouldn't have brought that one up. 😁 )
  33. ashbury
    Yeah, my post really was nothing more than to say that the season is long, it has ups and downs, and you never know. There's a 100-win team and a 100-loss team lurking inside of each squad* - which kind of goes along with the 54-54-54 formula. * Except the Dodgers and Yankees, probably.

    That's why it's an entertaining quote from an old-timey manager, and not an actual recipe for analysis or nothin'. 😁 Another old quote may be more relevant. You can sum up baseball in one word: "you never know."

    Today's home run becomes important if it's the start of a trend. Up until now he's been walking a lot. If he can begin to punish pitches in the strike zone, while still laying off the pitches outside it - well, that's a deceptively simple formula that has stood the test of time, right? That, plus doing all of it against opponents who throw right-handed too. 😁
