The only three on the tree that I've driven was a grain truck. Not so much fun to drive. None whatsoever. If driving around the metro area didn't suck so bad with a stick, I'd have one. I also enjoyed driving manuals. Automatics take some of the fun out of driving. Traffic takes the rest of it.
I was hoping somebody would post something like this. I didn't figure it was too realistic to expect a winning team next season, but at least it's been done. Regardless, for next season the playoffs should not be the goal, getting back to .500 should be. That'll be difficult enough.
When Leo Mazzone left Atlanta to go to Baltimore, the staffs that he had there weren't all that good either. It's not as though he forgot how to coach by heading north. Talent has a lot to do with results. The best coaches find a way to maximize what talent a player does possess though.
Thanks for the insight, Parker. Honest question. Will adjusting the arm angle as he rears back also, at least potentially, change his arm slot on the forward throwing motion? If so, could that impact the movement on the pitches?
Fall baseball at Target Field is great. It always killed me to go to the Dome on a beautiful fall day/evening knowing how few of those days remained before the snow flew. It's underrated in my view.
I expect Molitor to continue to try to win games. However, I expect him to try to win games using players that could be the future of this franchise. I expect him to manage the game and make decisions based on winning the game so that those players learn how to win at this level. Could that approach be detrimental in the near term? Yes. I don't care about the near term however, I care about the future.
Oh, that's what he meant? I thought that he meant that the kids were underpaid. I never knew that the US sweatshop workers were so underpaid. I wondered why wasn't this a bigger story?!
