If they did that, I would.

The consistency is that Jo Adell isn't a CF. Luis Castillo is a starting pitcher. I understand why they acquired Castillo. I wouldn't understand why they acquired Adell.

What are they doing? Running simulations to get odds on the success of different options?

Sure. We just played outside all day, every day in the summer. We didn't really like being inside. Maybe somebody would find his dad's Redd Foxx album, and we listen to that.

Yeah, I'm probably being 'online dude' and digging in on it. But I think I have the history of not really declaring something a win or loss until seeing how it works, some.

I was responding to Falstaff playing outside all the time. Space Invaders and Pac Man hit when I was about 15. Intellivision about a year later, or so. There was nothing when I was under 7-11 y.o. Parents wouldn't really let us off the block, so we either played fast pitch, or wandered through the Kresge's or Goldblatt's on Belmont. Or, if I'm missing by a year or so, nobody's parents bought it for them for us to spend all day inside playing video games.

No. They have to figure him out. Maybe there were more cheap, "plug and play" options, but I get what they were trying to do.

I believe he earns service time while on the 60-day IL.

If being hyper-focused for every waking hour on becoming better at one's full-time job is so important to so many people here, how do they post online all day? Unless that's their job.

Good think I bought a bunch of laudanum stock last week.

Tanner McDougal back to AAA.

We let Crochet go for nothing!!! I am so aggrieved!!! Fire everybody!!!!

White Sox paid the bills tonight!

Great job by Will Venable letting Hicks work out of it. That will serve us well in the World Series.

Hicks is back, back, back....

Nerd?

I like this Drew Romo.

You know guys, I like what Tullamore Dew, but I'm ready to join the Canadian Club for the evening.

A shorter Acuña woulda had a better read on that.

Can't get mad about that one. Peters tagged it, Cam caught it.

So, some Twitter blatherers have started a string of "RBI's are meaningful" convos, lately. It got me looking at stats, and we have 3 guys on the precipice of 30 HRs, but nobody has 80 ribs. I remember when Kittle hit 32 in 1984, and he had only 74 RBIs, which caused a hubub, in that he wasn't driving in enough runs, like Kittle did something bad. He hit 215/295/453 with 15 doubles. I don't know where I'm going with this. Gordo said "scissored".

Starting to wake up. I'd like to go to sleep tonight, contemplating a 7-0 win.
