    1. No game thread today? Everyone on vacation?

    2. I’m here - and I thought that this was the game thread. Something deep inside wishes that we lose today’s game to the SacA’s 1-0.

      Is that wrong?

      Am I a bad person?

    3. If Schmidt pitches a good game, I'd hate to see him miss out on the win. Other than that...

      We'll lose tomorrow with Stroman pitching. I think maybe two or three innings, four, five runs at least. Boone will leave him in to save the bullpen for another day, but it won't work.

  2. Why? Is it snowing in Syracuse today?

  3. Who's still alive in the Beach Boys, anyway? Mike Love?

    1. Mike Love and Al Jardine. Jardine is doing his own tour -- apparently he doesn't like the drama.

  4. That one hurts. 4-0, insurmountable for this spindly offense.

  7. Good thing we got rid of that Sears guy. Especially with what we got in return.

  8. The trade that sent Sears to Oakland really worked out well, didn’t it?

  9. Cashman is a genius. Bound for the Hall.

  10. Pathetic. But if the manager doesn’t care, why should they?

  11. And this just in courtesy of MLB.com:

    “Stroman feeling great on eve of return to Yankees' rotation’

  15. I guess that microscopic ERA at Scranton didn't extrapolate over to the big league.

    Hey Carl - what's happening in Branford these days . . ?
    Have they opened up an Oyster Bar yet at the James Blackstone Library?

    2. LOL,like the Oyster Bar in the basement of Grand Central?
      Not much ever happens in Branford. They're putting in a new Little Pub by the corner of Cedar Street and Rte 1. It's the tenth Little Pub in CT but you probably left before their first restaurant. It took the spot where Dtagon East was for 25 years. You might have departed before that place as well.How long have you been gone? New places open and close all the time especially around The Green on Main Street.

  17. See you tomorrow, gents. The next three outs will be futile and stupid. Like the previous 24 for the offense.

  19. Good God, what a stupid team. Glad I missed this one!

  20. OMG, Judge in a hurry to get off the field I guess…what a sorry ass slowing effort. Somebody needs to be held accountable.

  21. This was the one game I could watch in Germany timezone. Glad I chose to visit the local biergarten instead

  22. YES announced the death of Dave Parker, one month before his HOF induction.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Very sad about Parker; what a great player!

    ReplyDelete
  24. And...very sad about Judge. What a great player—in his time.

  25. 5-10 over their last 15, against 5 teams with losing records. They have scored 44 runs in those 15 games (28 in 13 games, if you take away 9 runs in one Baltimore game and 7 in one Cincinnati game). 110 hits—meaning their average hitting performance in this stretch is 2.9 runs, 7.3 hits. 35 extra-base hits in that time, or about 2.3 a game.

    Awful.
