At least this saves the BP by shortening the game to 8 innings.

Nice to see Andrus cool and calm there.

Why does a 4-4 tie seem like an insurmountable lead?

RBI Double. The answer is no.

Elvis with a big AB here. Let's see if he's fitting in yet.

I wouldn't be surprised to see TLR using Hendriks in a loss. Just to show he's "new school"

I know - and I just wanted to pile on.

Why, just last series, we scored 4 runs.

VV warming up in the 'pen now. I say go right to Harrison.

Let's just forfeit this game and move on. No need to risk anyone else getting hurt at this point.

....and we definitely get something different every day.

Kopech hurt during warm-up tosses. Also quick.

6 pitches for Lynch in the 1st, to be exact.

Well that was quick.

Someone else alluded to this in another thread, but probably to treat Cease's warm-up yesterday as part of his off-day routine. Likely less disruptive to his rhythm. Also gives Cease a start against a tougher team.

...does this mean that the admins will promote some of us less experienced posters from High A to AA, too, in a corresponding move?

Either way, I do agree that this is a good idea. It's nice to see someone in the organization doing something in line with my mantra - "what if the way we've always done it is wrong?"

I half wonder how much of this is already being done across the board in organizations like Tampa Bay, Dodgers, etc.

Exactly.….well, you would assume on a normal team, at least.

0 runs today.

I’m 38, and I am forever a Bob’s Red Mill guy. Change my mind.

Being able to get a head start and relax at your destination is a lot more preferable than sitting around idly in uncertainty for a few hours to delay your travels. speaking as someone who travels a lot for a living….

I've done more obscure travel with less notice on a tighter crunch many times. He'll make it no problem.
