Stinky Stanky

Exactly what I was thinking. Tony watched Grandal bunt during spring training and knew that he could, two sac bunts for his career be damned. A few of our bunting bozos could take a lesson from Yas. More importantly, this thread has degenerated into The Big Bunting Argument Revisited, which is why I love White Sox fans in general and you guys in particular.

Took the bat out of Yermin's hands. Took the DP out of a .130 hitter's hands. You choose. Don't get technical with me by asking what a .130 hitter's doing in the lineup. ?

Francona too. Big noses a problem?

Did you notice that the change was almost straight? In the past it's had wicked left to right movement. Maybe that's the difference. I'll grant you that pitch location was a minor part of the problem today.

Lotta cheap shots at Eloy for a Vaughn thread. His routes weren't that bad. All right, coming in on a short ball you may have a point.

If Coach Katz can get this waste of talent (Burdi) straightened out he is truly a miracle worker. I'll believe it when I see it.

The changeup is a big new asset. Stoney and I were both calling for it on the slider that became a HBP. Shoulda, woulda....

I did get a good laugh or two out of Williams trying to swing at high heat. My swipes are Tony are not juvenile. They are wise and mature. ?

If Ricky had started the 10th with Butterfingers Crochet pitching, he'd have been accused of putting players in a position to fail.

Nick was on 2B. He doesn't score on a clean fielder's choice at 2B.

Golf, if measured by rounds played, had a resurgence last year, fueled by pandemic related safety concerns.

Hammies can linger. Count me as skeptical/worried.

Tony's halo is still intact. No tarnish either. Ricky's horns likewise. Both have the same problem: In the end, a manager is as good as his bullpen. Gee, wasn't Ozzie a great manager in 2005 and a clown two years later? Gimme that '05 'pen and I'll be a great manager.

Reminds of The La Brea Tar Pits which is The The Tar Tar Pits. What is it about California??

Cubs broadcast without Kasper is awful.

He did lay off a few outside sliders in Spring Training and I thought he had it made. Guess I didn't watch enough in Spring Training. Madrigal's either snakebit or overrated. He's gotta pick up the pace. Right now he's on the low end of mediocre.

Good news here. Wife and I had second Moderna Tuesday and no side effects yet. Fingers crossed.

Since the genetic information used here to develop the vaccine was provided by China, and China and Russia already have vaccines, what the hell are you talking about?

Walgreen's haha. I got my first (Moderna) 3/2 and was scheduled for my second 3/30. But it was entered in their computer system as if I had gotten Pfizer. So I got a frantic call from them saying my second appointment was invalid. Which it wasn't and I got them straightened out, after some difficulty. There's a reason CVS is kicking their butt.

He's hurt himself running the bases. DH'ing doesn't help out there. I'm not worried about him or any fielder jumping into the netting. It's actually a way to make some great catches no one would have attempted in the old days. Solution? Lotsa tape and fingers crossed.

Go stand where you have less chance of catching the ball. Sounds like a plan. ?

It was the stock symbol on the NYSE before the merger and the name of their freestanding fast casual restaurants. I thought it was common since I heard it many times.

y They seem to have his number. Optimism would be unadvisable at this point. Choke up? Go to right field? Anything to get the feel back. Worry about the awesome power later.

Try Wag's at 6 AM. That's when they put up the new appointment times. It's when we got ours. Let me know how you did.
