  1. Looking like shit this weekend. And TON is not a gold glove caliber player. At every age you are taught that your first step is back in the outfield, yet he breaks in and the ball goes over his head.
  2. What about the "Wooooooooooooooo!!!!!"ers? I hate them too.
  3. WTF was Shildt thinking last night when he sent Yadi out to second base in the top of the 10th? Fairly softly hit ball allowed Yadi to move to third, but if that had been a single to the outfield there is no way that Yadi scores. I was confused on that one. I was actually thinking that he would have sent Knizner out to second. Not ideal, but way better than Yadi and you don't lose another bench player by using a different runner. Anyway, I thought Shildt made a mistake there. Luckily they won anyway, but that could have been one of those head scratchers that you have to answer for after the game.
  4. They pointed him to the best repair (medical) centre.
  5. Danny Mac is really good. The broadcast is way better when BT is in the booth with him. Thompson is funny and he also has very good knowledge of the game and can actually speak to it. I also heard Edmonds talking about the shift and cringed a bit when his reasoning was "but Microsoft". That being said, I agree with him about not wanting to ban the shift. I think the hitters need to adapt, but it's not because there are companies that provide the analytics. It's because it's baseball.
  6. Mouse orgy going on in that bucket.
  7. If it's coming from the same area code and prefix, it's more than likely a spoof. If the number isn't one that's in my contacts, then I consider it spam. I probably have close to a thousand blocked numbers on my phone now.
  8. Yeah, Jim Edmonds sure does like to talk about Jim Edmonds.
  9. I have Roku TVs all over the house. We also have Spectrum. On the TVs where we had previously downloaded the Spectrum app, they are still working fine. It really is just the app that can't be downloaded. I'd assume it will be the same with YTTV.
  10. Yeah, I'm really hoping that things normalize over time. The article that Beau Vine posted above is interesting. I'm not a big baseball analytics guy, but I do understand it. @Beau Vine, was that written by Bernie?
  11. To be completely honest, I used to be one of those people. The last few years, seeing how militarized our police have become, has opened my eyes to a completely different perspective. While there are some of these types of videos that make me question the motives and actions of the people being stopped, this is certainly not one of them. Actually, there are very few of them anymore that lead me to think that the police are in the right.
  12. I don't think that overzealous cops are limited to those that are prior military. In fact, I'd say that most of them are cops that never served in the military yet think that they are fighting a "war".
  13. The Army utility uniform (can't remember what they call them now, BDUs?) don't have rank insignia on the arm nor the collar. It's over the sternum, right in the middle, for both officer and enlisted. Not that this changes how the cops SHOULD have acted, but the cops couldn't see his rank for the seat belt. That being said, it doesn't matter the rank nor should it matter that the guy is even serving in the military. He did everything that he should have done, yet still got sprayed. I'm not a cop hater by any stretch, but this is just fucked up. I do find it curious that he just assumes that he's a Specialist. I can read all sorts of stuff into that.
  14. Looked similar to a Martinez type of start.
  15. Yet Carpenter is starting at 1B today. Nogowski would have been a better option, but Carpenter is making the big bucks. I hope this Goldschmidt back issue doesn't linger.
  16. Neither is a strength. Neither Bader nor O'Neill have shown any improvement at the plate since they came up.
  17. It's odd though. He has 3 hits... he also has 3 home runs. The swing will level out a tad and he'll start getting hits and isn't all or nothing. I think he needs to be in center every day and Bader can find a new job.
  18. Yeah, I was worried about the rotation, but the bullpen doesn't look to be much better. Fuck, this isn't looking good.
