Our pitching will get a real test in Toronto with their offense and that stadium.
Good steps in the right direction on several fronts.

I am really glad to see this. He became a very important cog in this offense.
Definitely an umpiring problem in MLB right now...

More of the same egotistical bill shit that shows exactly what's wrong with umpires and their union. This behavior is completely unprofessional and unacceptable, yet nothing will be done and he'll be umpiring today. Wake up and do something about this shit MLB.
Sure you meant without any injuries, Murph.I just hope we can escape Toronto with any injuries. Such a bad field to play baseball on
You know Murph. Always keeps ya guessingSure you meant without any injuries, Murph.
He played a lot of CF earlier this year while Brinson was on the DL. He is a very versatile player it seems.Hitzges just wore Elvis out with that 3rd strike bunt attempt. His main point was, "the next guy up is Martin, for crying out loud."
Norm mentioned the Rangers had called up Ryan Cordell to Frisco and he's gonna spend his time in CF. Nothing will happen with this experiment anytime soon, but I'm getting the strong feeling the team is about to wash their hands of Mr Leo.
He's only under contract through this season.
You and I chatted specifically about this problem a while back, and I told ya I contacted MLB about the problem and was informed, in a matter-of-fact tone, "Sir, you need to contact the Umpires Union."
What we essentially have now is a umpiring dog, so-to-speak, and they're off the lease. MLB seems powerless to do anything about this.
What's to do?

Norm is right. That was bush league garbage. Talk about giving an out away. And the idiotic thing about it is Mac backed that up saying he was okay with it. Hate having a bunch of puppets doing the broadcast. Nadel will tell it like it is why can't these guys.
I think the fact of your statement - being 100% correct and all - is what I find so frustrating with our on air broadcast.
Nadel is in the Hall-of-Fame and the trio of Mac/Busby/TAG should be unemployed. How can you get half of the equation so right, and fail so miserably on the other?
Look, unions fuck things up again. Big shock. MLB needs to take a serious look at their terms with the umpires union this winter. Their organization is a fucking joke.
And kick a guy like lewin to the curb in the process.
