    I agree Escobar probably doesn't get it. But there are major league SS's who do.

    RBI are a worthless stat. All you need to do is get guys on.

    Try eating the leaves next time.

    Tough luck there...Max hit that ball hard.

    Y'know, it's a small world. I went to the theater last weekend with Mrs Chief. There was a lady, an, uh...sort of elderly lady, sitting a couple rows in front of us, and I just couldn't get over the feeling that I knew her. Finally, it hit me...I was pretty positive I had it. She had been one year ahead of me in high school, and I had had the biggest crush on her all through school. I was sort of shocked at how much she had aged, but I decided that after the play, I would go and say hello. So after the play, Mrs Chief and I went up and I said, "Escuse me, but did you graduate from CHS?" "Why, yes," she said. I asked the year...."Yes," she said, now clearly getting the idea, but I could tell she didn't recognize me. "And you, too?" she asked. "You got it," I smiled. She looked just a bit embarrassed, and admitted she didn't recognize me. So she asked, "I'm sorry, but what classes did you teach?"

    That's a cheap run. Bloop single from Cabrera, ground ball single from Martinez.

    I got stopped by a cop on the way home tonight, he asked me where the fire was, since I was going so much over the speed limit. He didn't give me a ticket though. I told him I had to get home before I forgot where I was going.

    My memory just ain't what it used to be...when are taxes due?

    Making it a perfect pitch.

    Conversely, 1, 38, and 4,599 are all letters.

    He didn't go there to grab the tape, I don't think. He doesn't give a damn about the actual tape. He cares about his big brother, who he's looked up to all his life. He was heartbroken to learn Chuck would do that, and went to tell him off. The tape was just part of the speech.

    I worded that poorly. With RH Park, SH Vargas, and LH hitting Mauer, two of those three man 1b/DH most days, with the odd man on the bench. Most days, we have a platoon advantage. Against LH pitching, Grossman mans a corner a OF spot, and you add a platoon advantage there. This offense isn't so good it couldn't benefit from some advantageous deployment. And DanSan provides little of anything except the ability to be a two way detriment at multiple spots instead of just one.
  15. USAFChief
    If he is, it's not showing up in velocity. I think at this point you chalk it up to a couple badly located pitches that got hit hard. He gets a lot of rope, IMO. More than Tonkin for sure.
  16. USAFChief
    I'd do both Park and Vargas, dump a pitcher and Santana and Grossman is my fourth OFer. One of those two plus Mauer sits every day depending on the pitcher, the other two at 1B/DH. Grossman in against LHers. I get the platoon advantage from all three spots, pretty much every day. But then I'd have done that out of spring training.
  17. USAFChief
    classic!
  18. USAFChief
    The Bump I still have those shoes.
  19. USAFChief
    I get more frustrated watching Mauer hit than Buxton. I still have hope Buxton will improve. Or at least try.
  20. USAFChief
    No.
  21. USAFChief
    Score some %**(($)'ing runs, already.
  22. USAFChief
    In my eyes, if Santana's on the roster, you're still down a player, because you're only playing with 24.
  23. USAFChief
    ftfy
  24. USAFChief
    I disagree. Whether 13 pitchers or 12, every position player on the roster is going to play, and play enough to have an effect. Instead of "surviving" Santana, they should be looking for 24th and 25th men that actually help you win games (or at least not lose them).
