    Calm you keep, and on you carry.

    I think we've got the outline of our Business Plan; can you please clean it up and we'll get Bonnes to circulate it.

    And I have to believe his director, or maybe Terry Ryan, mentioned it to him during the commercial break, because right afterward he was talking about how it could have been worse and they could still come back and win. Hi broadcast crew, if you're reading TD game threads! We're available for consulting services at very reasonable prices.

    When asked to prognosticate a Twins win today, TK says "ANYTHING can happen." Hard to get across his tone in print, but he's in shutdown mode and is telling anecdotes now.

    Nuñez!

    "Swarzak greeted with an RBI single." Will this be the epitaph on Deduno's gravestone?

    Career officially over. Used as a cultural reference by old dude.

    There's always room in Rochester.

    Probably typical. Don't most players hate being made to look like an idiot against a fastball?

    Probably true, yet opposite of the view expressed by apocryphal letter home from a minor leaguer: "I'll be home soon, Mom. They've started throwing curveballs."

    Driver, then putter, would be my advice.

    It's a game of inches. Except when we play Toronto.

    J Michael Straczynski == Riverbrian?

    If I were to help on the project Chief is working on, those homeless folks would remain homeless.

    I'm glad your mother has a friend named Lisa. I hope her forehead is smooth as well.

    That should've been called an out by the umpire, right?

    Loses too much in translation. Much like Shakespearean opera - you have to hear it in the original Klingon.

    Split the first two games, Hippie.

    Vedui'. Hab SoSlI' Quch.

    Specializing in cases of assault on a defenseless ball.

    One of the posters on the ESPN comments page for the Hou-Min game the other day brought up that more than 50% of Houston residents speak Spanish. I didn't bother to point out that that's not inconsistent with more than 50% speaking English, too; didn't want to get banned by them for trolling or bickering or whatever.

    I expect it was short and to the point, with thanks for past contributions and for gritting it out through pain this season, and about how this is the part of the job he hates.
  23. ashbury
    If the role was significant, you'd think it would have shown up in some other form too in the last 40 years.

    I don't think Gardy fears having to do a little Managin' in the late innings. What he fears is losing his starting catcher in the second inning and having to move his DH there; that scenario means a likely pitcher AB or two for lack of better options (starter is pitching well, not enough bench bats, running through the bullpen quickly).

    Like the others who have posted, I enjoyed your posts very much. Stick around and keep contributing. I never wanted to even hint at this before now, because, well, why. But I have to say that this outcome does not surprise me. There was always a tone, I'll call it melancholy, in your writing here that presaged a crisis or decision soon to come. I say that only to reinforce that IMO this decision has been brewing for quite some time, whether you realized it explicitly or not, and thus it surely is a solid one that comes from the heart. So, very best wishes to you in your next phase and proceed with confidence - I'll also echo the others who said that I'm sure you'll make your mark.
