    If he can keep this up*, I may be forced to change my opinion on Martin. *Say...5 years or so.

    You can toss some diced tomatoes on my enchiladas. I'll push them off to the side, mind you. But you can toss a few on there.

    I wish Funderburk threw with a low arm slot. Then he could be "The Funder from down under." That is my wish.

    Bradley seems like an obvious pen candidate to me. Max effort for an inning. Fastball prolly plays up. Less need for secondary pitches. Shaky command less exposed. He doesn’t look to me like a guy likely to turn into someone who regularly gets guys out over 6 inning stretches. Too many misses, can't maintain velocity, secondary pitches exposed.

    Which is why you leave that nasty tomato off if it.

    Bellinger playing a deep 2nd base for Royce.

    Me too. And then toss it in the garbage.

    Lettuce, I get. Now, tomatoes. WTF? Ruins a burger. All you taste is that nasty tomato. Vile juice running all over everything. Who was the dumb **** that decided tomatoes belong on burgers? Just about ANY sandwich, for that matter.

    Bradley: "Holy ****. Hey skip. Have you seen this? Get a load of this Judge character. I mean, holy ******* ****!"

    Dunno...he refined his landing spot, or something.

    Dave Winfield. Drafted by 4 teams across 3 pro sports. Led the Big Ten in rebounding one year. Struck out 15 in a College World Series semi final. Skipped the minors. Bo Jackson second.

    This is all academic anyway. There's no road to 2026 contention.

    Or maybe one reason both leagues have left MLB in the dust is because they have sensible salary caps that allow for competition. Your "40% W/L" comparison is a bad one, BTW, due to the nature of baseball. 162 games, all low scoring. Relatively small advantages, smoothed over by a six months play every day schedule. Money wins in baseball. The Yankees have zero losing seasons since 1992. The Dodgers two losing seasons since 1998, and have had winning percentages over .600 in 7 of the last 9 seasons, assuming they don't this year. On and on. Payroll wins. That's got to change. Teams should win or lose based on factors other than money.

    MLB is the only major pro sport in the US without a salary cap system in place. It's long past time for one. It's the single best method to ensure league wide competitiveness. Whatever it takes, get one in place. Make it firm, fair, and enforceable. Give a fair percentage of league wide revenue to the players. Just implement it. Let the players revolt. They'll come crawling back in short order.

    Clemens starting represents a massive failure. He's not someone who will contribute to a winning MLB team. He is exactly who losing teams settle for. There's no "perception" issue here, or guessing. Clemens didnt start playing baseball this summer. There's history. An exception or two simply prove the rule.

    It's been a common description of the difference for about 150 years

    Matthews appears to struggle with the dreaded thir...sec...first-time-through-the-order.
