    Yeah, I've always had lots of anxiety about catching that disease.
  2. ashbury
    I’m dumb.

    I had just rewound the MLB.tv feed, looking to compare to the first inning. I don't like the looks of it, tbh. But, TJS scares me, and I'll never be able to sit back and relax. I know it's just a phobia. Can't help it. Every time Big Mike shakes his arm like trying to work some kink out, I'm worried.

    It's September. We're all scoreboard wa- ... oh, right.

    I'm limiting myself to the box score on that one. Looks like a line drive to me.

    "Cave hustling toward the line," as Jake saunters to catch the easy pop fly.

    Good start to the game for Big Mike.

    Seems like imminent peril of getting ahead our ourselves here.

    The videos/tweets are embedded in the article. What browser are you using, and can you easily switch to another, to see if that's the problem? If you are able to see the videos, and are wanting to capture the URL, in Firefox I found that I can do that only while the video is running and then right clicking. Here are the URLs in this article, disguised (so that the site software doesn't try to embed the video) by removing "https://twitter.com/" from each: fsnorth/status/1169794725898907648 ParkerHageman/status/1169815777236545536 Adam_Henning/status/1169812759103623168 jcmccaffrey/status/1169803619971031041 TomPrecourt/status/1169804876077064193 Hope any of this helps.

    Teams sometimes latch on to a momentary interest of the fans, and some stick while others don't, for instance the accidental way Sweet Caroline gained adoption in Bos- ... excuse me one second ....

    Ooo. Bad Freudian sister, I mean slip.

    Magical opener. Thanks!

    Cool Papa story, bro.

    Here's Cleveland's magic number today: 29. If you combine it with your imaginary magic number, 29+sqrt(-256) gets pretty complex. http://mearsonlineauctions.com/ItemImages/000041/c38c1a8c-e8f5-4c70-8610-a011dd306ea7_lg.jpeg Leroy Robert Paige. Satch, natch.

    Rosario's game last night brought to mind the old saying "he can beat you so many different ways." In the post-season we're back to 25 man rosters so there isn't the luxury of carrying a player who can beat the other team in only one way. Ian Miller's AAA track record suggests an OPS in the low .600s in the majors - way low for an outfielder no matter how polished. The scouting report I checked indicated he has range but not much arm. He seems to have a good eye but major league hurlers will just throw him strikes. His one way (baserunning) of beating opponents might be superior to that of others vying for a spot, but I don't see how Miller beats other teams enough different ways, to be anything besides a longshot.

    Weigh your reply carefully, CB.
  17. ashbury
    Yeah, but what about MarGo? I've heard she's injured too.

    This site keeps track: https://s2.smu.edu/~olinick/riot/american_league.html . It considers things like remaining head-to-head matchups, but we're far enough ahead of Cleveland that this doesn't even change the calculation. If you like to keep track yourself, just look at Cleveland's current number of losses, and our wins. This morning they're at 60. If they won the rest of their games, that would put them at 102 wins. Since we're at 87 wins, we need 16 more to reach 103 and put it out of reach. Each loss they have, going forward, simply reduces our burden by 1, so their losses are equivalent to our wins. It's magic, not math, that number 16.

    Far Away the best post we'll see today.

    Ah, an uptick. Last time Toronto was in town, in late May, there was an announced attendance of 5786. That attendance of 5962 also beats the attendance of 5947 when TB visited Miami in May. Which, in turn, stands loftily above the 5297 Miami drew when hosting Cincinnati about a week ago. Good times in the state of Florida.

    They weren't really running "on" him. It was just baseball being played as it should be, on both sides, and Eddie met their move with the required counter. One out would have been a different story.
  22. ashbury
    Concur. You left out Cave.
  23. ashbury
    Except for Remy's grating accent. (But, concur, on your actual point.)
  24. ashbury
    It's great to be able to win that kind of game when it's called for.
  25. ashbury
    I can watch that video of The Throw again and again and again. Wait, can? Have. And again.
