  1. What a coincidence...so do I.?
  2. Watching Eaton in RF and Mercedes at DH instead of Mazara and EE... has allowed most of us to take a step back from the ledge.
  3. Thank God Nicky was there to bail out all our sluggers.
  4. Pesky...is the least of it. Pain in the ass is their long suit.
  5. Hopefully with the same result.
  6. Need to sigh Mercedes to an Eaton-like extension. There will be a buying frenzy if NL approves the DH. I would like to find a way to keep him...but for sure don't want to end up empty-handed.
  7. Overall things are looking good. Relief pitching has been my biggest concern...but we have the horses to get er done.
  8. I really like what Hamilton brings to the late innings with speed and defense off the bench.
  9. The M & & M all had great games. Vaughn is reminding me of Robin Ventura's 0-41 streak when it finally ended. Grandal is making me miss McCann something fierce.
  10. That play looked every bit as bad as the one that hit him in the head the other day.
  11. Not quite...more like the All-Star break.
  12. Moncada and Madrigal will both be part of the next WS team. No reason to be bashing either of them.?
  13. Fans are passionate about "our team"...why else would we watch night after night?
  14. To be clear...I am confident that Madrigal has the floor of a reliable everyday 2nd baseman. My hope is for him to challenge Fox as a WS legend.
  15. Yep...I have seen firsthand what Nellie Fox meant to a championship club. I don't know if Nicky can win the MVP as Fox did... but it will be fun to watch him try.
  16. Some of you need to join the WS scouting program. People who can spot a player's floor and ceiling after 45 games would be invaluable.
  17. I hope we pound lumps on him...keeps us all from putting Dunning on a pedestal.
  18. Need to win that game for sure. A loss would have this board in cringeworthy mode.
  19. Good point. Maybe if they load the bases for extra innings...we will rarely see an 11 inning game. I wonder where all these baseball fans are who are clamoring for these changes to the national pastime?
  20. In the last week both Robert and Vaughn are much improved...now I need to work on Moncada.
  21. Millionaires and Billionaires fighting over how much more the fans will have to pay to enjoy their favorite team. Exasperating!
  22. Jose seems to be out of the funk.
  23. I was glad to see him in the lineup at first. Would really add to his value. Only took one play to understand why it didn't happen sooner.
  24. Staying within himself. Looks like he has figured it out. Hope so!
