    Phase 2 will be where we work our way down the list of not-wise.

    Dumb fielding decision by Mitchell. Forget about whether a fielder was positioned behind him, you don't stick the meat hand out there.

    I move this post be stricken from the record.

    Looks easy but not every RFer gets that liner on the fly.

    One 'a these days, DtD, one 'a these days... http://images.complex.com/complex/image/upload/c_limit,w_680/fl_lossy,pg_1,q_auto/azfwvudhswrvvt2qdcdu.jpg (Aside to ChiTown: didn't you always admire Alice's stoic courage in the face of threatened abuse?)

    Too bad - a better Rosario throw might have had him at third.

    Vargas's range is limited, so he will never be stellar. But he attempts baseball plays when called for - with varying degrees of success, but I like it. He's not just there to receive easy throws while waiting his next turn at bat.

    Changed my mind. It was a smart play by the Yankees right fielder. So apparently if it's OK for them to be judge-mental., it's OK for us
  9. ashbury
    Don't be judgmental. Helluva throw.
  10. ashbury
    I agree. IMO Vargas has under-rated defense - i.e. people say he's terrible but I think he's about league average. Soft hands and good reflexes. But.... Mauer is in a different class altogether.

    Granite seemed very unperturbed by that high inside fastball. Maybe a little too cool about it, as close as that one came. Nice that the ball had eyes for him when he put it in play.

    I am waiting for someone at SS who is as dependable as Buxton is in CF*. Adrianza had a difficult chance on that play, but not impossible. Luckily, he got an opportunity to atone immediately, with a tailor made DP ball. * Or Mauer at 1B, I should hasten to add.
  13. ashbury
    That was a very difficult foul catch by Mauer.
  14. ashbury
    Rosario does well to sneak back into second base there.
  15. ashbury
    Nice scamper, as Dick termed it, by Adrianza to snag a liner.

    I can tell you, in all seriousness, that the moderators are most assuredly not. A few TD members have already been given a word to the wise.

    Very heads-up baserunning by Rosario (and/or basecoaching by Smith) on that double. Although, Altuve was pretty slow getting up after that dive - I won't take anything away from him on that, since it might have shaken him up for a little moment, but had he popped to his feet faster he would have given Eddie a little more to think (legitmately or not) about when rounding first.

    The United States House Committee on Oversight will need to not have a look into this.
  20. ashbury
    The moderators will be the judge of that.

    Some bakers get creative. http://www.cafe-future.net/news/pics/13492-org.jpg
  22. ashbury
    I agree.

    The New York Times has picked up your scoop, and backdated it with a year 2009 byline and inserted Carl's name instead. With prudent investment, Jim should have grown his inherited portion to approximately 14 trillion dollars in the intervening time, or not quite enough to pay off the US national debt. I'm going to stick my neck out and guess that the Cubs also did better in one half of that season than in the other. It's a long season.

    I checked again and, perhaps more importantly, you can outright a player (as I believe was the case for Melo) only once without his permission. The second time, in the example I tried, he has the right to choose free agency. That would put a real limit on a team's aspirations to move a player on and off the 40. Never mind.
