  1. Whispers? Only for the hard of hearing. http://www.audiotoniq.com/sites/default/files/u97/SNL%20Hearing%20pic.jpeg "OUR TOP STORY... BYRON BUXTON... IS HAVING TROUBLE... LAYING OFF SLIDERS... IN THE DIRT."
  2. Jared Wilson. 11.1 IP. 6 SO. Imagine the pitying looks he receives in the clubhouse.
  3. I wasn't not an inverse hipster before it wasn't not cool. Or something.
  4. On second viewing of the play, I wonder if Torii would have had a better chance of being safe if he slid less directly over the plate and more toward the infield, staying in the basepath of course. The play looks closer now than I initially thought.
  5. The intent of the balk rule is to eliminate deception (a topic for a different discussion), so I would be hard pressed to call it when the runner is in motion and committed to the steal and the pitcher throws to where the runner is already going.
  6. Banned PEDs are the ones that carry significant long-term health risks, as I understand it. When more than a few players use these, there is a coercive effect on other players to take them or get left behind. You brought up the larger question, and here's a counterargument, but if we want to broaden the discussion away from ARod I suggest someone start a different thread.
  7. I don't think the delta is so much with pitchers' ages or how they were acquired. It's starting to look to me like talent evaluation, which is disturbing.
  8. Sorry, I was unavoidably detained. Bark's reply was good (no reply for fear of being banned), and the slut/strumpet vocabulary lesson was edifying, but I'm going to have to go with SampleSize's contribution of '"I don't know"... Third base!'. Prize consists of bragging rights until the next grenade I roll in contest.
  9. I was here and then got diverted by birthday stuff. Missed the end of the shutout, which of course we all expected to happen since Pelfrey was the starter.
  10. Entering the 4th, Pelfrey's season ERA sits at 3.46.
  11. Dickbert: "How did Rich Becker get to third base?" Punch line contest.
  12. "I wanted MEYER." http://www.rebodybuilding.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/whiner-dude.jpg
  13. This apparently was just in the spirit of the team I'm rooting for.
  14. I'm sure the difference will be immaterial, with Pelfrey pitching.
  15. 3-0 after half an inning. Big Pelf's got this.
  16. This has been your Circus Boy Update update.
  17. Implying Pelfrey is a pitcher isn't much better.
  18. Let me pile on by pointing out that at this writing Buxton is Buck-Ninety-Sixton.
