  5. The problem is that the Sky Sox play a lot of opponents who also have crummy home conditions for pitchers. The desert isn't a whole lot better than the mountains.

  9. For a moment, I thought I was in the TV thread. Moving on… Procedures have varied from one expansion to another. Timelines have been different, and the expansion drafts have been structured differently. But generally, I think baseball has asked for applications and has gone from there. That wouldn't stop a potential ownership group from making their desires known at any time they please, though. Fútbol (soccer) is definitely the number one team sport in Mexico. But baseball does have a presence. The Cardinals played the 49ers in Mexico City in 2005. I can't find any horror stories about that; what I find is overwhelmingly positive. It appears that the Texans are looking to schedule a game there in 2017. Regarding safety, I'd be very careful about sensationalist language used by people who have an agenda. Objective reports state that personal safety concerns are significantly greater than they were a couple of decades ago. But they also emphasize that Mexico is a huge country and that the majority of it is fine as long as you take the precautions you'd take when traveling anywhere else. Specifically, the US government says that the Federal District (Mexico City) is good but that travelers should exercise caution in its outer suburbs in the State of Mexico. FWIW, Jamaica has a much higher homicide rate than Mexico.

  11. Billie Jo had blond hair, Bobbie Jo was a brunette, and Betty Jo was a redhead. Pat Woodell was Bobbie Jo #1. Two actors played the part (Woodell and Lori Saunders). Three actors played Billie Jo (Jeannine Riley, Gunilla Hutton, and the late Meredith MacRae). Sharon Tate was the fourth Billie Jo; she was initially cast to play the part but never appeared in the series. She moved on to a recurring role on [cite]The Beverly Hillbillies[/cite]. Unfortunately, Tate is best known as one of the Manson family victims. Linda Kaye Henning played Betty Jo throughout the run of the series.

  14. I'm really wondering why the Jays didn't relieve David Price well before he completed the task of giving up the three run lead in the 7th.

  18. [cite]Go, Cubs, Go[/cite] (1984) has been the Cubs' official song "at various times."
  19. [cite]OK Blue Jays[/cite] dates back to 1983 and is played during the seventh inning stretch. Matthew West's [cite]We are the Royals[/cite] is a 2014 ditty.
  20. Here are a couple of 2015 articles by Chris Mitchell of Hardball Times: Examining Potential MLB Expansion Cities, Part 1 Examining Potential MLB Expansion Cities, Part 2 Chris applies a statistical model which includes demographics. He fairly points out where his model falls short. For instance, while his study ranks Sacramento fourth on the list of potential US expansion possibilities, the model doesn't "know" that Sacramento is less than 100 miles from San Francisco. His study doesn't include international cities, but he addresses them separately in Part 2. He suggests that Vancouver's demographics are a better baseball fit than Montreal. As far as Mexico goes, he points out that Mexico City has an economy that's approximately the size of Dallas. Guadalajara and Monterrey have economies that fall in line with Milwaukee and Kansas City.
  21. I've closed this topic since it's become redundant. There's a nearly exact duplicate of this in the Minor League forum: Farm Director Reid Nichols Won't Be Back And we now know about Gord Ash's replacement: Matt Arnold hired as new Asst GM Initially, it wasn't really clear where this topic should be placed as it covered both Major and Minor League personnel. For that reason, it made sense to keep two topics open for the time being. Once we know the futures of Ash, Scott Martens, and Minasian, we can go with the flow, depending on what happens.
  22. Ricky is the bullpen coach for the Mets.
  23. Here's a song from the same era. It wasn't written for a specific team, but since it was the theme song for Cubs radio broadcasts for years, I'll post it in their honor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xB_nWFmHVNA
  24. If the games were to be offered over the Internet without being tied to a cable subscription, I'd expect to pay for them. But I'd be paying for something I'd be taking advantage of vs. paying for numerous channels I care nothing about in order to see the much lesser number of channels that I'm interested in.
