A few weeks ago I was listening to the Padres' radio b'cast. (They're good, BTW; I really like T. Gwynn, Jr.) and they were specifically talking about how much of a "homer" (or not) you have to be in order to be honest and popular. The conclusion is that those 2 things are not necessarily in conflict: You must be honest; you need not be mean. It was a very candid discussion.
EDIT: the Kevin Brown deal was absolutely a disgrace for the Orioles. Their owner is probably a big fan of the current Russian dictator. He's at least an imitator.
That's actually a fair question. (💩!! )
Yeah, it's just my frustration over our apparent inability to beat "inferior" teams on a regular basis, as if some of those games are not that important.
'"spark" = winning, "no spark" = losing.' <===<< true. 😁
Can anyone name a better acquisition than Wililiam Contreras? I can't.
Even tho' I don't know nothin', I'm really glad he's on our team. He is one of the few hitters of whom I say, "Good, he's up."
I know it's become kind of a joke around here, but get Hiura up here and give him another chancealready!!! We make every mediocre pitcher look Christy Mathewson.(who was better than Cy Young, I think.)
Analytics Schmanalytics. Some guys have GUTS when it matters; others do not. Getting tired of mathematical answers to mental problems.
