Today's announcers believe incompetence is a virtue. Comments earlier here are so true.

Could be. I couldn't stand her years ago when she and A-Fraud were giggling to each other.

I had to hit the mute button last night. Some gal kept rattling on about nothing in the shrillest of voices.

Is he the one who took his own date rape drug?

Ray Guy.

Shane Murphy, 14th round draft pick last year. Good for Shane.

Zaftig is better.

What is that, Jimmy? Taking pitchers?

Great Coach, and L. James tried to get him fired.

correct

I can almost forgive Kelly giving a leadoff, seeing eye single. I can almost forgive Kelly giving a single to the all-world Arraez. I cannot forgive Kelly for walking Soler when he had him 1 and 2. WTF is he doing looking at the base runner at second while in the middle of his delivery home. He did it on Balls 2 and 3. If he strikes out Solero, the game is still winable.

I had never heard that Jim Landis story. Thanks.

Vaughn seems like he getting slower.

Luis Reyes with another tough start in DSL.

Timmy, if you live in Manhattan, how do you know so much about our farm system and its players?

Today, nothing. He would just get called the worst of all names if he did it now.

Byron Chourio, outfielder, I believe. 17-18 age.

Zero hustle.

What's he gotta do? 4 out of 5 yrs with twins > than .300 average, batting title last year, .399 YTD this year. We're talking Rod Carewish.

Astros would probably trade their catcher prospect if we take Abreu off their hands.

I know that Twins got an 18-year-old prospect who might be the real deal plus a pretty good starter in Lopez, but you just don't trade a hitter like Arraez in his prime.

Why did Twins trade him?

Probably decent sized, but primary method of killing is to fly super-fast and collide with the other bird in mid air, killing it. Then he eats it. All of it -- feathers, feet, head, bones, all of it.

He passed away recently. He had a long, successful career, but what I remember vividly about him was that in 1959, he started Game 1 of the World Series between Dodgers and Sox. We won, something like 11 to 0. He was removed early., obviously. Turns out the Sox gave the LA wives tickets in the right field upper deck in old Comiskey, and when Roger struggled, the fans up there really let her have it. She had to leave, crying as she went. I never understood how fans can be that cruel. RIP Roger.

Sometimes they bring in falcons just to get rid of other birds. For a fee, of course.
