The place in Gun Barrel was sold, to this day my closest friends are guys from Memphis I met while in college, Big D is a very expensive place to rent/eat out/etc, and the cost of living here is very good. Example, my rent, after I take out the expenses from GBC which I will no longer have (yard work/storage, etc) will only be $100.
Evidently you did not learn much in college or you would still be in GBC fishing. No doubt we will miss to much of your good posts. Stay close to the tv/radio.:D

I don't know Donaldson, Banny played in all 162 games last year. Didn't even get 1 game off.
I too will be surprised if Odor is replaced if he struggles again. Even if they did replace him, I think Odor would be given another chance the first time Profar went into even a modest slump. I think they would view Profar replacing Odor in the lineup more as a motivation for Odor than a changing of the guard.

We might be better off with Colon starting and Minor going to the pen. Then again, we might be better off not being slightly better off.

I have been saying as much as many of us hate Colon he is a better option than Moore or Minor. And that is a sad state of affairs.

It would almost be more entertaining watching colon take a giant dump on the mound instead of watching him pitch.

If you are looking for entertainment from this team you might want to keep your eyes off of the mound altogether. Focus on the left side of the infield and on the batter's box.

Silly boy. He can't do that. He would get tossed from the game. Bad enough if he pitches. You silly boy.:L

Opening day will be fun, it will be a big spectacle, I’m hoping it’s not a blow out, but after that the enthusiasm level for this team will drop off dramatically.
