Weather under 40>>>>>>>100 degrees 7 days of the week and twice on Sundays. You can always put on more clothes, there's only so much you can take off. fuck weather over 85 degrees F. Today was perfect. 78 with low humidity. Edited May 10 by Jack Parkman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brijames1957 214 Posted May 10 I want to make it clear I'm not dogging Sheets for the error, s*** happens. I'm dogging TLR for putting him out there at all. He isn't an outfielder. He is a prototypical first basemen and or DH. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chw42 4,024 Posted May 10 Just now, maxjusttyped said: He went from being on one World Series contending team to another. Being on the Sox gave him an opportunity, if healthy, to play a bit more than he did on the Dodgers. I'm sure he was very happy about the trade. This is a great position for any veteran to be in. Maybe you're right on the weather, but veterans sign with cold weather teams all the time. I don't think that's much of a factor for most guys. I think there's also the fact that he got traded in ST, so I imagine his family is still in LA And they didn't get a chance to really move. They just had a kid too, so some of that might be affecting him too. It don't want to make it seem like I'm making excuses for the guy, but these guys aren't robots. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CentralChamps21 1,729 Posted May 10 That was the entire game's allotment of runs in the first inning. Going to be a boring rest of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It'd also be 4-0 right now if that was tonight's lineup. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The funny thing is that if Reese wasn't catching, Sheets probably hits behind Pollock and we get nothing in the 1st inning. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
