TheWinWarblist said...: I'd take an extravagant strike by a quite large chunk of rock.; September 17, 2021 at 7:05 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: As long as it doesn't take out my Bucky Dent brick.

JM said...: Gallo wakes up when it doesn't matter anymore. Great.; September 17, 2021 at 7:46 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: It's so he'll get that 7 year extension over the winter.; September 17, 2021 at 7:50 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Rufus? That doesn't say Bucky Dent.; September 17, 2021 at 8:01 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucky_Dent

Name at birth Russell Earl O'Dey

Knew they wouldn't allow Bucky Dent, so we went with Russ O'Dey.

I have a duplicate signed by Bucky Dent and Mike Torrez. Steiner made a profit from it.; September 17, 2021 at 8:12 PM
DickAllen said...: I’ll say one thing for Gallo. He may be a useless turd, but when he gets hold of one (which is rare and worthless at the same time) he certainly hits the snot out of it.; September 17, 2021 at 8:25 PM
DickAllen said...: I think Rizzo might be worth keeping around. He may be past his sell date, but he’s quite a glove.; September 17, 2021 at 8:31 PM
DickAllen said...: And a full season staring at that short pitch might even extend his career. This is, after all, the place where has-been a go to retire.; September 17, 2021 at 8:32 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: 1. Where the fuck is Velazquez?
2. I'm annoyed with Voit's bitching, but has he been Refsnydered?
3. The vaunted Yankees offense sucks. Kudos to ZachA for pointing the ineptitude. Two HRs, but only 2 runs. Like the Carmines in the early 70s.
4. Fuck you HAL
5. Fuck you brainless
6. Fuck you bonehead.
7. Rizzo isn't on the downside enough to be re-signed. He needs to have a crap year elsewhere first, then brainless will want him back.; September 17, 2021 at 9:06 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: And Now: The Scions of Scunnery, Our 2021 Bullpen.; September 17, 2021 at 9:08 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Russell Earl O'Dey??? The fuck you say??; September 17, 2021 at 9:08 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Wiki: "Born in Savannah, Georgia, to Denise O'Dey and Russell "Shorty" Stanford,[3] Dent went home from the hospital with his mother's brother James Earl Dent, and James' wife, Sarah. Bucky and his half-brother were raised by the Dents, who changed his last name to "Dent", but his mother would not allow them to legally adopt. He and his half-brother were led to believe the Dents were their biological parents, until he was ten years old.[4] Dent was told the woman he knew as his aunt was in fact his mother.[3] Later in life, he was told the name of his father, whom he then found, thus sparking and developing a relationship."

We all come from blended families; that is true.; September 17, 2021 at 9:11 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: And Bucky Dent has a brick at Phen Weigh Pahk. Forever.

Fuck the carmines.; September 17, 2021 at 9:12 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: And I've been to the mini-Phen Weigh in Delray Beach. Dent is at bat on the (permanent) scoreboard.; September 17, 2021 at 9:13 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: If they can score 5 more, they may have a chance to win.; September 17, 2021 at 9:19 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Gardy Party!! Lets see those fuckers blow this one!!

Wait!! No!! I take it back!! I take it back!! LET'S NOT SEE THAT!! LET'S NOT!!; September 17, 2021 at 9:24 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Dammit. What have I done?; September 17, 2021 at 9:25 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Somebody lock El Chapo in the trainers room for a couple of hours.; September 17, 2021 at 9:26 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Big Head was talking about Gardner coming back next year.

Kinda like talking about the parolee taking your daughter to the prom.; September 17, 2021 at 9:27 PM
ranger_lp said...: King has had a solid outing...; September 17, 2021 at 9:38 PM
JM said...: Chapman might be able to close this one out. Maybe.; September 17, 2021 at 9:40 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Stanton is unable to hit into a DP this AB.; September 17, 2021 at 9:41 PM
ranger_lp said...: Joey again!!!; September 17, 2021 at 9:42 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Keep Chapo locked in the trainer's room.; September 17, 2021 at 9:43 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Joe Pesci is getting to be almost likeable.; September 17, 2021 at 9:44 PM
ZacharyA said...: Joey has 6 HR in his last 6 starts; September 17, 2021 at 9:45 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: A couple more runs and it may be safe to let El Chapo out of the trainer's room.; September 17, 2021 at 9:46 PM
Leinstery said...: I believe that all 6 HR have been solo shots, but hey that's still more than Gley Igawa.; September 17, 2021 at 9:51 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Gley Igawa.

Nicely played, sir!; September 17, 2021 at 9:53 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Gley Igawa. [slowly nods approvingly]; September 17, 2021 at 9:56 PM
Kevin said...: Gardy 119 wRC+ second half, it just might happen....; September 17, 2021 at 9:57 PM
JM said...: It's der Luger.; September 17, 2021 at 9:57 PM
JM said...: Und das ist alle sie schreiben.; September 17, 2021 at 10:00 PM
JM said...: Ok, hat geschreibt. So sue me.; September 17, 2021 at 10:01 PM
ZacharyA said...: Quality start by Kluber, three perfect innings from the bullpen, and 8 runs by the lineup. Wow.

That’s the best all-around game they’ve played in a while. Nice to have a temporary reprieve from the shitty normal play.; September 17, 2021 at 10:03 PM
Leinstery said...: Thank you. I was thinking back fondly on the AAA legend and wins leader when my hatred for Gleyber crossed into my mind. I think he should be handed the same fate and banished to the minors.; September 17, 2021 at 10:13 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: JM has drifted into German.

Gallo has 37 HR and 75 RBI. No wonder he doesn't like hitting high in the order.; September 17, 2021 at 10:14 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Leinstery,

I think we should run with it until it sticks.; September 17, 2021 at 10:15 PM
Leinstery said...: I'll spread it everywhere I can the next time he makes a massive mistake, which should be tomorrow.; September 17, 2021 at 10:32 PM
Kevin said...: Too bad that one of my favorite players, Tanaka-San was too rich for Hal. The whole dynamic of the pitching staff changes, possibly extending to the hitters. Well at least our expensive centerfielder is sharpening his golf game. God only knows how many of my teeth have cracked roots because of Hal.; September 18, 2021 at 4:46 AM
13bit said...: Teams that hit only homers are teams that go home in October.; September 18, 2021 at 5:49 AM
HoraceClarke67 said...: Love it, bitty.; September 18, 2021 at 11:23 PM
