AboveAverage said...: Mr Stang - I just checked the KOOLAID website as Mr Bit suggested and I couldn’t find them there so I have clue who they are.; September 30, 2022 at 6:21 PM
13bit said...: THEY are definitely not on the koolaid site.

THEY are the real deal.

THEY are players I could believe in as a young boy and not be crushed.

THEY are heroes.; September 30, 2022 at 6:54 PM
JM said...: Gerrit Cole bobblehead night? I thought Gerrit Cole WAS a bobblehead.; September 30, 2022 at 6:58 PM
Doug K. said...: JM-

It's a special bobble-head.

The head doesn't shake until it gets a bad call. Then it goes berserk.; September 30, 2022 at 7:12 PM
JM said...: Like Jello.

If Gleyber had managed to catch that on the short hop, Mullins is out. Instead...; September 30, 2022 at 7:22 PM
JM said...: German's postseason audition not going so well.; September 30, 2022 at 7:24 PM
JM said...: Stanton should very obviously not be on the postseason roster, certainly the first round. Which means they will of course put him on the first round roster.; September 30, 2022 at 7:52 PM
JM said...: The hitter friendly ump just punched out a guy on two balls called strikes.; September 30, 2022 at 7:55 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Doug K, Nice.; September 30, 2022 at 8:09 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: JM,

Don't know who said it, but I'm hoping for the play him until he breaks method of getting Stanton on the DL for the entire playoffs.; September 30, 2022 at 8:11 PM
JM said...: I'm liking Bootsy Bader.; September 30, 2022 at 8:17 PM
JM said...: The Kid!!; September 30, 2022 at 8:22 PM
Doug K. said...: If they play Hicks over this kid they would have to be insane.; September 30, 2022 at 8:24 PM
Seb said...: Thanks For bringing out Britton, it was the obvious choice there; September 30, 2022 at 8:41 PM
ranger_lp said...: Britton looking like Britton...another do not sign in off-season...; September 30, 2022 at 8:43 PM
JM said...: Britton out with an injury. 😂😂😂😂; September 30, 2022 at 8:44 PM
DickAllen said...: There will be a retirement party for Zach Britton at The Dugout, 880 River Avenue, to begin as soon as he’s showered and suitably dressed.; September 30, 2022 at 8:51 PM
Doug K. said...: Hey he worked hard to come back and overall he was good for us. He's also, I believe, is the union rep so he's a good teammate. It's a tough break for him.; September 30, 2022 at 8:52 PM
JM said...: Stanton is just terrible.; September 30, 2022 at 9:06 PM
JM said...: Britton deserves a better exit.; September 30, 2022 at 9:07 PM
DickAllen said...: And the geezers in the booth are reminiscing and telling kids how lucky they are.

Only, there aren’t any kids watching.; September 30, 2022 at 9:08 PM
Stang said...: 13bit, you are absolutely right. I made a cheap joke. I'm in awe of Maris and Ruth and Hehrig and Mantle and DiMaggio, and I'm thrilled to see Judge join that group in my lifetime.; September 30, 2022 at 9:11 PM
DickAllen said...: Hey, don’t knock cheap jokes. They are a mainstay of comedy and it’s purpose is to keep the sanctimonious in check.; September 30, 2022 at 9:21 PM
DickAllen said...: Remember Rule #62: never take yourself too damn seriously.; September 30, 2022 at 9:21 PM
Doug K. said...: are we rooting against chappy here? I am.; September 30, 2022 at 9:33 PM
DickAllen said...: And it occurs time that cheap jokes are what we specialize on this blog; September 30, 2022 at 9:34 PM
Doug K. said...: odor looks like he's wearing a disguise.; September 30, 2022 at 9:37 PM
JM said...: New York fans doing the wave is just fucking embarrassing.; September 30, 2022 at 9:40 PM
JM said...: Odor looks like a large example of dwarfism.; September 30, 2022 at 9:41 PM
Doug K. said...: Or a soldier from the Ottoman Empire.; September 30, 2022 at 9:43 PM
JM said...: Which is worse?; September 30, 2022 at 9:45 PM
JM said...: Nice going, Ralph.; September 30, 2022 at 9:46 PM
Doug K. said...: judge should bunt; September 30, 2022 at 9:56 PM
13bit said...: I also like a cheap joke. That's one reason I'm still a Yankee fan in these, the darkest Yankee days since 1903.; September 30, 2022 at 10:12 PM
JM said...: Cheap loss; September 30, 2022 at 10:26 PM
AboveAverage said...: Doug:

I had a hardy chuckle when I read Judge should bunt.

Excellent!; September 30, 2022 at 10:27 PM
HoraceClarke66 said...: Nice call on Gleyber, JM.

An error to Trevino, but of course he should have easily gloved that ball. Instead, the game turned on the fact that he could not nab an easy one-hop toss to second.

The sort of attention span that Gleyber will turn into key, postseason losses for us.; September 30, 2022 at 11:21 PM
Kevin said...: HC, glad that you mentioned that play. When it happened, and nobody in the booth said anything I figured that I must have been off-base (sorry, sorry). And right you are, making that kind of mistake is poison in the playoffs....; October 1, 2022 at 3:29 AM
