so Costas could talk about his All Star candidacy tie in with 1933/83

plethora?

MAC or The Valley not Ivy League

playing for tie at home against a better bullpen?

4-8 is going to require a minor miracle

Or Nishida two strike bunt...?

Worse than 0-2 ibb to lad by LaRussa?

TLR 2011 mode?

three outs at home that happens maybe every every two months

Make that 767 now

the great Antonacci at 759 better than average OPS for LF but not so sure about Ron's greatness proclamation

two runners out at home

see if Venable has any magic left

way too big/long a swing for Braden from RH side

Your what hurts?

Have to use Colson now.

Looking more and more like Vargas will make the All Star team. Martin/Taylor the other possibilities.

Connor must have made quite the impression prepping Costas for his appearance. Mentioned him specifically by name, not Schriffen.

Game back on for now.

Here we go with the opener than opens the game up....this game had bad bet written all over it from the get go.

https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/breaking-news/article/brewers-reportedly-sign-of-prospect-luis-lara-to-7-year-31-million-extension-184150340.html Brewers and Mariners (to a lesser extent) cornering the market on early early extensions. Doubt Jesus Made will be so easy, though.

More to the taste of fans 45-50 and over. Which is still a large segment of those sports fans listing baseball as their favorite sport. Thankfully, the Dodgers/Ohtani are making some significant inroads with those under 35-40, especially in Asia/Pacific Rim markets. Latin American/Mexico in particular, has never been stronger. Mostly, it's nostalgia for when Costas and Tony Kubek worked together in the 80s and early 90s. Always more of a StLouis fan, but he does genuinely love the sport of baseball. And himself too.

This is why quite a few of us have been saying for months he's a RFer and not a CFer in the major leagues...along with an elite throwing arm.

After less than one month in AAA? C'mon. They desperately need a jolt in the lineup with Mune out, Colson slumping and Davis Martin taking a step back.

Sure, when both Montgomery's are in the lineup together.
