  1. Any chance Lee can play CF? I don’t know what (if any) outfield experience he has.
  2. If Buxton and Correa finally start producing regularly this is suddenly a team to contend with.
  3. On the other hand, it’s not like other strategies have been bringing the house down, so what the heck?
  4. I am, at this very moment, wearing the t-shirt Brock designed for the 2016 TD Pub Crawl. It features a pinstriped player with a paper bag over his head. This seems in vogue once again, and is most assuredly Brock’s doing (but not his fault).
  5. The best parts of any game thread have always been those that have nothing to do with the game, or even baseball, but simply life.
  6. So my general conclusion, regarding this season: This team was built on the premise that upgrading the rotation was the key to success. But then they also assumed Buxton, Correa, Polanco, and Kepler would carry the team offensively. First part, more or less successful. Second part, all four of those players have failed to meet even modest expectations. That’s actually pretty remarkable, that none of them has clicked. But it does mean the ceiling for this team, this year, is winning the ALC. Barring a complete revival of those four players, it’ll be wait ‘til next year.
  7. I believe Baldelli said no concussion, just a ‘head contusion.’ On the other hand, the track record about day to day has not been prize winning.
  8. All I’ve seen so far is ‘day to day.’ Maybe they’ll say something more during the broadcast.
  9. What if nobody ever made an out? We’d still be watching Willians Astudillo pitching in a game that started a few years ago.
  10. I’ve seen enough fiction made up in these various threads that I think the Duffer brothers could make season 6 of Stranger Things based on them.
  11. It’s not quite Billy Martin and Dave Boswell.
  12. I’m doubting this will really be addressed until the off-season and yet another lineup revamp. So, yes, this is not their year.
  13. Rally Bonobo.
  14. Lewis walks, do the floodgates open? Stay tuned, same Bat-time, same Bat-channel.
