    We've waited so lo-ong, waited so long.

    I wonder if Rosario would swing if the pitcher simply took a deep breath, like he was preparing to throw a ball.

    I'd say about every third slider has a ton of break to it...of the other two, one is buried in the LH batter's box out of his hand, so it never induces a swing and miss, and one is flat and tumbles in somewhere around thigh high near the middle of the plate. Same for his fastball "run." Inconsistent, and he doesn't have the stuff to leave fastballs anywhere near the middle and get away with it very often.

    Best done heavily sedated?

    I gotta believe at least one of those pitches in the dirt gets by Centeno.

    I want the organization to win. Consistently. It's difficult for me, in my living room 1500 miles away, to point to specific things. But what isn't difficult is to see that the organization has had no success for half a decade, and limited success for the decade prior to that. So maybe I'm simplistic, or biased, or presumptive, but that leads mr to not trust the people in charge. That includes your department, BTW. Sorry, but that's my opinion. I appreciate very much you taking the time to indulge us here. Truly. But I see the team still rushing to waste outs by bunting. Slow to accept power pitching instead of pitch to contact. Reluctantly adapting defensive shifts later than other teams. So I want someone from outside the org to come in and look at everything with fresh eyes. Someone without personal ties to the minor league staff, the coaching staff, the analytics staff. Someone who won't perhaps feel the need to continue down a road he/she advocated previously and now must justify. Just my opinion...one perhaps overly influenced by a military background where those in charge were deliberately moved every so often for some of these same reasons.

    Don't feel too bad. He just called you a petard.

    Actually, there's a little "rainbow" in everything I've seen him throw this game. IMO, of course.
  13. USAFChief
    Not to mention, hitting him would wake him up.

    winnah.
  18. USAFChief
    Possibly true. How would we know?
  19. USAFChief
    Not to repeat myself from the election thread...well, OK, exactly to repeat myself...Vanimal's not in Texas, he's in Austin.
  20. USAFChief
    Well played sir.
  21. USAFChief
    And yet, there you are. Relax friend. We're all pals here, and we've all made a faw paw at one time or another.

    Little something I learned in the military: First rule of holes is, when you're in one, stop digging.
  23. USAFChief
    You mean when the kids were still young, amiright?
  24. USAFChief
    Human or animal?
  25. USAFChief
    Not to worry. I'm proof positive you needn't be good looking to own a lack of understanding.
