  1. I really don't get the thinking behind the Rule 5 picks. It just seems so wasteful. If you are going to keep a roster space for someone and think they have some value, just make a deal. Why don't teams just do that? Maybe I'm being simplistic and really don't understand how these things work, and at least this didn't go on for longer (but is that really an optimistic take?), but I just don't get it. Will Gordon move up to Rochester? Or is this move so short lived they don't want to do that yet?
  2. Yeah, no ... that's no fun. It's a good way to get a seat to yourself with no one scrunched up next to you.
  3. Well ... I have to have some talks serious talks with myself about games this weekend in Chicago ... do I go or not, and if I do, how often? Maybe they'll sweep the Jays and get on a roll ...
  4. Yeah, it makes me almost want to watch.
  5. All I can say is 'Ugh!' I really can't watch this anymore.
  6. I actually think there was far worse to this game than that. Half the relief pitchers need to go ... who do we have to fill those spots? Oh, wait, we have Kinley. I forgot. Who else?
  7. We have quite a few pitchers right now that fit that 'hope will be his last appearance' category ... Hughes, Duffy, Hildenburger ... and who do we have to take their places?
  8. Yep. Yep. I have nothing more to say.
  9. As long as it doesn’t have any green in it.
  10. No, I like the red. It’s my favorite color. But then all the colors are my favorite color. Except green.
  11. The latter. Need to close the circle.
  12. Doesn’t matter. If they win wearing them tonight, they have to wear them forever.
  13. It’s the red shirts. They should never wear any other, ever.
  14. This tells me nothing so let’s start with the basics. Did you like it? Where would you rank it against all the other Marvel movies.
  15. Black Panther is one of my favorites in the Marvel movies.
  16. I've always been dubious of machines calling balls and strikes; still kind of am because I just worry about how much it changes the game I've grown up with. However, if we want to avoid that, the human component in this has to be better than it has been and there has to be a better way to 'force' that accountability. I can't imagine it's an easy job at all, but, when the data shows what it does, something needs to be done about it, imo. It's not fair to anyone in the game ... winner, loser, batter, pitcher. I guess some could argue that it all balances out, but I'd want to see data that it actually does. And while it's difficult to see the game change, how 'pure' is the game really when this level of unaccountability in wrongness is being allowed to occur.
  17. I've been seeing both aliens and humans at work this week. It's what happens when John Williams is in town for a series of concerts. It brings out the ... best? ... of both worlds.
