    Unless his nickname is Hot Diggity, no.

    That's what she s...*mmmph* *mumble* *mumble*

    I ejaculated something when the play unfolded as well.

    Hot diggity!

    Maybe Correia can paint the ball red and have it register faster on the radar gun.

    Someone named Jason from Grand Forks got circled by Bert.

    Should make it invisible to the county mounties.

    Those Vermont Chargers are worth more. You ruined the value by removing the original packing.

    Oops, Dick just put a curse on the no-hitter by mentioning it.

    Hard to steal when they pitch out. They should make that illegal.

    Not being a string player would take even more skill to pull off.

    Welp, gotta run. I'm guessing I'm not missing one of the better games this season.

    That called third strike was Vintage Smooth, unfortunately.
  14. ashbury
    He's smooth at bat too. [insert own punchline here.]

    Intent, you say? Here is an interesting study that should have bearing on tonight's game against the Tigers: On the Role of Prosodic Structure in French Loanword Incorporation into Bambara

    Don't you hate it when a sentence doesn't end the way you think it paramecium?

    Having trouble reconciling these two posts in the space of a few hours. In any case, we're now on old well traveled terrain and I'm done with this topic.

    Any employee who forgets this probably won't have his or her job title for very long.

    At the time I was in favor of trading from strength. What I didn't agree with was trading away whichever pitcher would bring you the most in return. Instead, pick the one or two who you feel fit the least best with your needs, and negotiate over them for whatever you can get - if the return is sufficient then pull the trigger on the deal, otherwise stand pat. Garza seemed at the time like the surest bet to contribute, and thus was exactly the wrong one to deal, and the Rays jumped on it. So, bad trade, with full credit to Smith, but not because the idea was wrongheaded from the outset.

    Kudos have been offered to Brunansky, but it occurs to me to wonder whether Jack Goin has unearthed some methodology to detect tendencies in opposing pitchers (count, outs, men on base, ...) to help guide the strategy at bat. It can't help with pitch recognition, but situational thinking, if it can be boiled down, can't hurt. And not all 2-1 counts are born equal.

    I'm confident that it's more complicated than "simply stopped swinging", but it's nice to see recognition for the good results at the plate these first few weeks.

    After having GMed for dozens of seasons1, I can state with confidence that I would have done much better with this team than Terry Ryan has. When, for instance, is the last time he fleeced another GM by trading 5 marginal prospects for someone's number one draft pick? 1 Out of the Park Baseball, I have a 2014 season underway now

    "Oi',m losing in the eighth, Oi am. Losing in the eighth Oi am Oi am." Hope not, though.

    I like the idea, but not enough to buy you a steak dinner. Hit up crarko though.
