  1. When you consider Lewis and his 2 consecutive ACL surgeries, he may be fully healthy and strong for the remainder of his career. The surgeon was quoted as saying you could keep having that surgery over and over as long as the attachment point of the ligament was intact. There may be no other damage in his knee meaning it is fully healthy. Unfortunately, even with modern technology, there is no real fix for damaged knee cartilage. If there was, there are many ageing, super wealthy athletes that would have extended their careers with it. Kinda like how Ted Danson still has a big bald spot, lol. If there was a cure... When you hear that a knee is being scoped, that is cleaning up damaged cartilage. This can be a chronic condition and may be where Byron is at, sadly.
  2. I agree with this. Everyone is clamouring for something to be done about our low end starting right fielder. If Kepler looks in the mirror and admits he is a low end starter at his position, maybe he would realize he could be a good strong side platoon center fielder. His bat would actually be good in that role and he wouldn't have to be so miserable about the damn thing.
  3. When someone is going well let's ride that as long as possible. No scholarships. Louie V is looking better and better. Do not sent the young man down. When Maeda forces your hand, get creative this time. He can be a versatile asset out of the pen. Use that and grant some of his incentives to keep him happy and make you look good to the players.
  4. I also want Wallner up and didn't want him sent down in the first place. It was reported Garlick is up because we are slated to face multiple leftys.
  5. This is the point where, again, someone has to point out Bailey Ober's injury history and amount of innings he's pitched each year in his career and that maybe you might want these kind of performances from him late in the season and the playoffs etc blah blah blah
  6. To all those "old guys" out there who want to watch these broadcasts, if your here you are on some type of computer and most of the way there. In about 3 minutes you can go to BestBuy.com and easily aquire a free 3 month trial of Apple TV.
  7. Yep, on my android phone it is horrible. On my android tablet, not too bad. It's it true ponying up for a gold caretaker eliminates this? Silver?
  8. True, but Kirilloff has somewhat quietly been taking the most consistently productive at bats. A nice pair to add mid-season no doubt. Kirilloff doesn't maybe have the charisma, but man he looks steely and confident at the plate. The opponents don't seem to know how to pitch to him.
  9. I'm a little surprised ESPN has us this heavily favored in this matchup. It is the same margine the Astros had over us when Louie pitched in front of that surprisingly successful lineup
  10. If it's not going to be Glen, I would prefer Marlon Perkins on the booth. Imagine the color provided.
  11. Lopez got dinked and dunked tonight, but it would be nice to see him go on a run. AK and Lewis are a nice lil pre-deadline addition.
  12. Wallner has to be the first choice, play the hot hand.
  13. Yeah early this year Buxton carried the team for a spell.
  14. Civale vs Ober tomorrow night, get it!
  15. Another great game at the plate for the natural, AK
  16. Fresh blood when it was sorely needed.
