  1. "Lately" is my distinguisher. He's definitely got some good ones, but my taste leans toward the '90s and earlier. I'd vote for Kristofferson off of "Me and Bobby McGee", "For the Good Times", "Help Me Make It Through the Night" and "Why Me", but I think "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down" is one of the greatest songs ever written.
  2. Flo and Jamie are warming up to cover the eighth and ninth.
  3. Correct. I tell my son that if you don't know who wrote a great country song, the appropriate first guess is Kris Kristofferson. If it tilts toward folk, a good second guess would be John Prine.
  4. Radio folks speculating Buxton is out because of the ball he fouled off his shin.
  5. Dirt Band, Circle Vol. Two, Track 2. Was just listening to it yesterday.
  6. Cleveland up 9-8 going to the ninth. Clase in for the third straight day, after going 13 pitches Saturday and 20 on Sunday.
  7. After his second inning, getting through six is pretty significant.
  8. Can't even classify it as sew-sew for Singer.
  9. For more on the subject, this is outstanding. Best baseball book I've read in several years. Brown interviews a dozen or so backup catchers, with the story framed around Kratz's career.
  10. They will also have guys that need to be added to the 40-man, either from coming off the 60-day IL or to avoid getting lost in the Rule 5 draft.
  11. They've gone through previous offseasons with only two catchers on the 40-man, signing a veteran backup or two on minor league deals. He seems like a non-tender guy to me -- his roster spot will be more valuable than he is.
  12. Baseball-reference.com only updates once per day, so this is his third.
  13. He obviously has not been able to thread the needle on his pitches.
  14. Learned something new tonight. Apparently "XI" is the abbreviation for Catcher's Interference. I did hover off the header to verify that's what it means. Otherwise, the catchers apparently have three elevens.
  15. You or Mrs. Chief are probably the best judge. Is there any, uh, unexpected stuff on the floor?
  16. It was cool that they retired the "W" yesterday for the 1924 Senators, but now what am I going to do with my "Royce Le is" jersey?
  17. I’ll be holding down Section 309 tonight. Sorry for the late start, folks. For a moment, I thought Terry Ryan was going to mention each fan in attendance with his thank yous.
  18. If Zebby starts Tuesday, they don’t need Varland on Wednesday or Friday. Ober Wednesday, followed by SWR, Festa, Lopez, Zebby has everyone on regular rest. However, if they want to give everyone an extra day, they could slot Varland in on Wednesday as you suggest, but that would be choosing Varland over Ober. More likely, Ober would still go on Wednesday and Varland on Thursday.
  19. Zebby on Tuesday seems the most likely option. They do (and could still) have a nine-man bullpen through then, which does make a bullpen a more viable option, depending on the usage until then.
  20. Looking at the bullpen usage chart, I’m not sure that anyone is truly not available tonight. That’s pretty amazing coming off a doubleheader.
