Don’t overlook Eaton’s other potential use, which is to passive-aggressively lecture the clubhouse about “what Skipper wants/says”, while shaking his head, folding his arms and staring at the floor.

Missing the space between “La” and “Russa”, too...

It being his second DUI negates that defense; though it's past the threshhold of use in determining sentence, it's still relevant to display a pattern of negligence.

I'll assume neither, and go with "advisory at the beginning of the call, asking for scope of questions to be limited to Abreu's season".

Not to tamp down the LOLz, but it’s Rawlings’ decision/fault, not MLB.

Yes - this is absolutely what happens; you prep a bunch of free agent possibilities Photoshopped into your uniform, or make graphics celebrating titles you don't win, players you might draft but don't, etc. Bad timing and fortune, but nothing nefarious.

Rawlings announced the nominees for the 2020 Gold Gloves; amongst them were these: Yasmani Grandal C James McCann C Danny Mendick 2B Yoan Moncada 3B Luis Robert CF Winners will be announced on Tuesday, November 3 at 6pm CT on ESPN.

Joke prediction: La Russa gets hired; Stone then tweets: "As you may recall, Tony managed the Cardinals against the Astros during the 2005 NLCS."

Nick is British slang for jail/prison. Madrigal is a specific type of song. Jailhouse Song.

An easy half- measure would be to play an echoey Hawk recording over the stadium P.A. system when there’s a home run, like the Phillies do with a recording of Harry Kalas’s “Outta Here!”

As long as he's not hitting anywhere above 8th in the batting order. In 2018 he hit 2nd 96 times, and led off 15 times. Fortunately in 2019, he most commonly batted 8th.

My only concerns are more general in nature, and not necessarily specific to Yolmer: A tendency to return to what's familiar over trying something new/different; Carrying too many of these types of players on a roster; The person filling out the lineup card who reflexively keeps playing them, or worse, batting them high in the lineup

Likeliest answer: there was a finite window of time to QA each photo, process the orders, have a print shop produce them, and install said cutouts during a timeframe that didn’t have them around the players (to conform with the league’s CoVID protocols).

I'm presupposing that Benetti is also referencing "The Knights of Ni"/Monty Python and the Holy Grail when he says "another shrubbery".

Kopech has opted out for the 2020 season.
