That's the way it generally works. Reggie Miller's sister was probably a better basketball player, and could have kicked his ass, too.

Ask for fresh. They all sell fresh and smoked. There's the Shop N Save at Devon and Nagle. they have dozens of different region's smoked sausage. All the soups and stuff. I'm pretty sure Niles Polish Deli on Milwaukee across from St. Adalbert's cemetery has fresh. Call them. They should sell fresh.

I went to a wedding in Poland. They put a bottle of vodka on every table and they kill the thing toasting. They also have these sausage wagons in the corner with fucking salamis and s%*# hanging in the back. And you just wander up and eat a couple pieces of sausage, some zulc, get grabbed up to do a polka or two on the way back to your table. Get back, vodka shots. Jesus, I never drank that much vodka.

Trout hot dogged that catch.

My family sent me home with a flask of plum brandy last time I visited. They also have vodka I haven't been able to find here. Flavored Finlandia? Delicious and deadly.

Yusei Kikuchi threw okay for 6. Ryan Johnson ate it for 1.2. Los Angeles Angels vs Chicago White Sox Box Score: March 27, 2025 | Baseball-Reference.com

Yeah, Tyskie and Zywiec dominate the market. Okocim. If you ever find yourself in a Polak bar, Jeszcze dwa (yesh-che dva) means two more.

Is there a market that craves these interviews? I always hate them.

Maybe Newcomb will be starting after all. Kay could be a LOOGY. An expensive one...

Pretty empty tonight. At least nobody will be getting hurt by Angel HRs.

An "sky" name is probably Russian. We don't like them.

I'm here. Waiting for another to show up so I can change a light bulb.

In case anybody cares, I've been digging on this dude, lately. Always comes up in the context of song-writery song-writers. There was an experimental period of his where his sometimes co-writer said he was actively trying to throw off his fans.

I don't know what "held down by scrubs" means. Are you saying 3 starters aren't in the bigs because lesser pitchers occupy the rotation spot they're entitled to?

Born this date on 1910, Frenchy Uhalt, a utility outfielder who OPSed .644 in his only season in the bigs. He spent the 1934 season on the White Sox. Unremarkable as a major leaguer, Frenchy was elected to the Pacific Coast League Hall of Fame. Frenchy amassed 3123 hits in 22 minor league seasons.

Why does people deciding they're going to be happy and enjoy the fun/bad have to be weird? The catastrophe dependency always strikes me as a bit much.

I would imagine that clearing out the international scouting department, building a new facility in the DR, adding new tech and analysis is the result of looking at what more successful teams have been doing.

They were. Getz imbued them with a winning quality that made them good pickups. Just like Fedde, they wander off the property, and the magic dissipates.

Gee, I can't imagine why they have the worst record in baseball.

I won't find any Padres' fans because I generally don't look for them. When Mr. Ishbia calls me every night to ask me about my reminiscing over 2005, he says it drives him to add a thousand new young fans a day. So, yes it does help, immensely.

Those "3rd best record in the last 12 years" banners hang forever.

I know today was all backups, but... 2018, Nicky Delmonico - LF (-0.8 bWAR), Adam Engel - CF (1.2), Avasail Garcia - RF (0.6) Antonacci and Pereira could both end up close to 1.5-2.0 bWAR. That's not great, but it's not "the worst OF in history". If Acuña starts hitting, he'll be there, too.

Thome also was named Thome, so we can only compare Munetaka Murakami to other Japanese hitters named Munetaka Murakami.

He's catching fly balls off to the left of his chest instead of lining up underneath it in front of his face. I've heard it commented (probably by Beckham) that being an infielder, that's now he sees the ball the best, angling his face some and catching the ball chest high. He seems fine in the field. A couple of mis-reads, needing to take charge and call off other fielders, but beyond that, he seems solid with the glove. I agree with whoever said in the last couple of days, here, that Acuña's still probably trying to make the things work they've changed in his approach. His strikeout rate actually isn't bad. He just either hits everything on the ground, or right at somebody in the OF.

didn't it? They had to trade Sosa to bring up Ant-man, or it all happened in the same flurry of moves.
