  1. MLB.tv is $23 for the rest of the season. Trying to decide between that or LevelUp IPTV. I f***ing hate giving mlb money, but...

    Oh, and the Yankees kinda started the game out ok.

    2. Rufus...I'd go with Apollogroup.tv
      I've had it for 6 years. No buffering and pretty much the same as the other one except no porn, LOL.

    3. Carl,

      Went to sign up to apollo. They wanted a photo ID and said my McLovin ID was not readable. Plus they want bitcoin, which to this luddite is a non-starter. That's why I was looking at LevelUp.

  2. Does that include the post season, aka "the extended season for all"?

  3. Volpe with a hit. With 2 out, of course

  4. Also need to comment what a terrible hitter McMahon is.

  5. So, Mark Teixeira is running for Congress in Texas as a MAGA guy. Says he wants to end “radical woke indoctrination.” Which I assume means the whole runner-on-second-in-the-10th-inning thing.

    1. I always thought he was an asshole. Now he’s confirmed it.

    2. Apparently Melky Cabrera and CC Sabathia have had some not-so-nice things to say about Tex.

    3. Melky had very nice things to say about Mary Carey.

  6. Hey, it was only one grand slam. I can hear Boonie-head saying he pitched well except for one pitch.

    1. I know, right? And he’ll be praising Volpe like he was the second coming of christ

  7. The I Ching says that the Yankees need three more runs to win this game.

    Please plan accordingly . . .

  8. Second toss:

    When a bird flies too high, its song is lost.
    Rather than push upward now, it is best to remain below.
    This will bring surprising good fortune, if you keep to your course.


    in other words, demote Volpe and the team will win the division

  9. Happy to get any win, but let’s face it - this a low bar among low bars.

    Teams like the gnats and chisox are a sad commentary on the modern game.

  10. How many runs, how many extra pitches will Volpe cost us in the stretch? Just terrible. This is not the time to help a guy "work out his problems."
