  1. 80's gold! Sittin' in a restaurant she walked by I seem to recall that certain look in your eye I said "who's that?" You said with a smile "Oh it's nobody, oh nobody" Maybe that explains the last two week You called me up, dead on your feet Working late again, I ask who with You said "nobody, oh nobody." Well your nobody called today She hung up when I asked her name Well I wonder does she think she's being clever? (Clever) You say nobody's after you The fact is what you say is true But I can love you like nobody can, even better Late last night we went for a drive You were miles away I asked "who's on your mind?" You said, "Nobody, nobody. Why do you ask?" Oh, her again I could have told you that. We came back home got ready for bed I said to myself I've got one shot left Your still mine and I won't stand in line Behind nobody, nobody! Well your nobody called today She hung up when I asked her name Well I wonder does she think she's being clever? (Clever) You say nobody's after you The fact is what you say is true But I can love you like nobody can, even better. Well your nobody called today She hung up when I asked her name Well I wonder does she think she's being clever?

  2. Man, today's players are babied.
  3. Or, when he gets hot, even if for a single game, don't bench the man. If he has a great game, and looks to have found something, the last thing that should happen is a benching. Makes no sense.
  4. Wait until the injuries start to mount because of the mound being further away. These guys have spent years with the same distance, that foot will put unusual stress on the arm for sure. With the delicacy of today's pitchers, you can count on a bunch of injuries.
  5. You are seeing it everyplace. I worked at a box store for a 2 year stretch during college. Tattoos, piercings, etc were not allowed. period. If you had them, you didn't get hired from the get-go. It has probably gotten to the point of not having a hiring pool if those rules were still followed, so you see what you have now in the work force. There was a time when you told high school kids that if you want to get hired for good paying jobs, don't have visible tattoos. (hands, wrists, necks, etc) That is no longer the case as it seems harder to find people without tats than with them. It's what happens when society no longer has rules in place because the people who are supposed to follow them no longer care. Business continues to bend even lower because they feel they have to if they want employees. I wonder if the pendulum will ever swing back to a more conservative look, but I doubt it. Tats, piercings, oddly colored hair, long shaggy beards and hair seem to be entrenched with today's younger work force. I don't see that changing.
  6. First 19 games of 2020 team wRC+ was 75 (28th), last 41 games it was 96 (18th). While they never quite reached average over sixty games in 2020, they certainly were coming out of it (some might say regressing towards the mean) as the season went along & who knows what would have happened over another 100 games. You can throw out any stats you want to make you sound correct. I'm sure I can cherry pick a few stats that make me sound correct too. This team so far this year feels the same, and is getting the same basic results. This team sure seems like the squad we fielded last year, however, I do realize there is a lot of season left.
  7. Check out deGrom with the Mets. He just never gets run support. He must be the most frustrated pitcher in MLB on a yearly basis.
  8. This offense is so similar to last year's it's scary. Last year they never really came out of it. It almost feels like this year (so far) is just a continuation from last year. Like there was never a break in between. It's not even the same players, but it seems the same regardless.
  9. If I had a big old beard, and was offered millions of dollars to play baseball if I shaved it, I'd shave it. Wouldn't even consider otherwise. Nothing wrong with teams having rules, and actually following through on those rules. If someone wants to get paid to play baseball, and are asked to follow simple rules to do so, it isn't that ridiculous to do what your future employer asks. If that is an issue with you, then you look for other employment opportunities. Quite simple really.
  10. Hopefully he doesn't have to use his AK. What is that? You lost me there. Old school Ice Cube song. Sorry, thought people would catch on.
  11. So many oblique issues around MLB this year. You'd think that fine tuned athletes would take better care of their core.
  12. Why won't anyone work on Kenmore?
  13. This will probably be a regular occurrence for Cain the next 2 seasons. I stand by my 100 game theory. I don't see him playing more than 100 games all season.
  14. In what world is Vogelbach a #2 hitter? I would literally put every starting player above in the #2 hole before Vogelbach. (except Freddy of course) That includes Narvaez. Wow, weird line-ups so far this year.
  15. hmmm I've never heard a bad thing about Arcia's clubhouse presence. Not a single thing.
  16. Really? We don't even know what we have yet in Urias. Anyone can be your undoing. Urias can't be any worse offensively than Arcia, so I doubt the effect is as detrimental as you think.
  17. If Arcia is the best SS that SD can find to replace Tatis, then they are in bad shape.
  18. Please be for a 1B or 3B that we can plug in and use NOW!
  19. Very logical take.
  20. Keston needs to be sent down ASAP and see if he can figure things out again. That will also get him away from Haines, who is a bum. It always feels like Brewers coaches get a long leash, a really long leash. Haines needs to go, the sooner the better. No need to prolong the inevitable.
