  1. Yeah, I had a good feeling about Mastroianni in that spot. #ThanksTerry
  2. Yeah? Well then why is he throwing a 3-hitter through 4 and a third?? j/k
  3. MLB Gameday keeps using the words "lines out" to describe Cleveland batters...is this good or bad?
  4. Just start pressing buttons like the rest of us, and see what happens
  5. But not forgotten, thanks! It was me--I was sitting on my phone or something.
  6. Perhaps you would like their newest brand offering, Coke Infinity Delicious?
  7. I always thought it was abandoning the cursive writing that brought it down, huh http://cdn.history.com/sites/2/2015/05/hungry-new-coke-AP_260821232821.jpg-E.jpeg
  8. For some reason (probably because it's funny? not sure) this reminded me of the scene in Naked Gun when Leslie Nielsen slides across the table with Queen Elizabeth, so I was going to post a jpeg of that photo....... but then I made the naive mistake of googling: "Naked gun queen elizabeth" uh oh http://basementrejects.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/naked-gun-from-the-files-of-police-squad-frank-drebin-tackles-queen-elizabeth-leslie-nielsen-jeannette-charles-review.jpg
  9. I really like how the Texas GM discusses it. Here is the link http://m.mlb.com/news/article/177892318/rangers-promote-no1-draft-pick-matt-bush Bottom line: they think he is a good pitcher and can help the team.
  10. Right. If one listens, they can pick up on things. Mike Radcliffe made some comments (can't remember which podcast) that gave the impression he felt moving Sano to right field was terrible judgment. Ryan was asked to justify giving Nolasco the rotation spot instead of Duffey, and Ryan said there was a big debate, there was a 5-5 split, but ultimately the decision was up to him. Those are two recent examples I can think of. There was the Pelfrey-May thing last year. But I can't get behind Antony. Spring training 2014 was a debacle and the media gave the impression Antony was in charge. Antony seemed too eager about the David Murphy signing and the "veteran presence" he would add. (And Berrios would still be in the minors). I don't want this thing blown up (yet), I just want them to start making good decisions.
  11. I had to google the Monty Python Ralph the wonder llama reference. Which is unfortunate because I was a Monty Python groupie-wannabe back in the day. Shows what I know... I have no idea what that creature is. I only posted that photo because I want one.
  12. I don't know how he hits baseballs so far. He also has a camaraderie with his teammates, which is really fun to see. One concern would be if Park can handle being pitched inside. Maybe KBO pitchers don't pitch inside--don't know. Maybe heat maps show there is no concern. Park swung a Sale slider that hit him in the knee (don't worry, you're not the first!) but the umps gave him a break. Another time, a high inside fastball came, and to get out of the way he didn't know if he should spin away from it or lean back, limbo style. He did a little of both and it wasn't pretty. But, Park seems to be otherwise adjusting to MLB pitching just fine and as jimbo said, plays a great first base and knows the position intuitively. I'm a huge Park fan!
  13. In case nobody knows what you are talking about....... http://s2.favim.com/610/150904/art-beautiful-funny-horse-Favim.com-3237983.jpg
  14. You hate to get your starting pitchers all warmed up, and then have them only pitch 6 innings before the rain comes. (oh wait, that's how Phil Hughes got his only victory this year)
  15. The good news about this rainout is that everyone who came down to Target Field won't have to run back to their cars or drive back home in the rain.
