  1. I'm not a bunt advocate, but I'm game here.
  2. Couldn't agree more! But, what did I miss, he's not up for seven at bats.
  3. I'm still expecting to hear one of our clubs blare this some day, corny as it is:
  4. I was going to do a 'shocked face' gif about Santana stealing a base, but he's somehow stolen 15 in a row?!?! That goes back to 2018 but still.......
  5. Well I won't for sure, I can only listen on the radio.
  6. Margot trying to make him feel better about it.
  7. Alas, he already said the siren call of attending baseball games every single day in a big city would be too much. We may have seen the last of him.
  8. We sure that wasn't just a 2023 thing? This was 2022:
  9. If you run out of toilet paper, use your wife's loofa.
  10. Obviously. Not going to pay for Rich Hill's minor league salary.
  11. He was traded to the Red Sox for Rich Hill.
  12. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/08/red-sox-rich-hill-nearing-agreement-on-minor-league-deal.html Hill's staying home in Boston it sounds like. We got anyone like that around here? Did Jack Morris came back home or did he stay in Detroit? Dick Stigman maybe? Glen Perkins is probably the best bet. Looks like he's three years younger than Hill too.
  13. Maybe if it's a day game, at 8 PM you call it bed time.
  14. And if not Keirsey, than you try Michael Helman. Then Will Holland. As far as players go, I chose quality over quantity, but quality wasn't an option here, so they should have gone with the guys with options to cycle through and keep the roster flexible.
  15. Man, looks like a rough hot weekend in Dallas. I won't be surprised if no starters go past the fifth in this series.
  16. What was the fact I didn't provide? That he's rusty? You're right, that was a bold assumption on my part. Guys who grunt when they put on their socks are probably good to run out to the mound to face MLB hitters a year removed from the game.
  17. Knock on wood. If he's only a back end starter at best, they sure as heck at least give it a shot.
  18. I agreed earlier that Lewis playing 1B now wouldn't hurt the offense, but historically, that's not usually the case. A + bat at 3B AND 1B is a better lineup than a + bat at 1B and a - bat at 3B. If for instance Lewis is now entrenched at 1B and we later find that Brooks Lee isn't the offensive player we all are hoping for, that negatively impacts the lineup if he's forced to play because now he's the best option at 3B or 2B or where ever.
  19. Just about every one of them is saying they don't want to move Royce not that he can't play 1B. The subtext of every one of those posts is basically that it's too early in his career to give up the offensive potential of him playing a more premium defensive position.
  20. I'm not sure who you are arguing with here, because the people who would have liked Rhys Hoskins, are likely the same people who like Lewis at 3B. And the same people who believe WAR is a poor tool and gives defense too much weight.
