Posting a gdt the day before the game?

Bad form, sir. Bad form.

Baseball rules are really going to change in 4 years. Three pitchers start the game!?!?!

It will be an appeasement to get the DH is the NL...

Do they get to take turns in throwing a pitch? Is only the pitcher who threw the last pitch able to field if the ball is in play? We need to iron out these details here.

How often can the manager switch the roles? This could cause the game to last 5 or 6 hours!

I should add, that would be interesting on a field, throw and cover a bag play.

Bum getting the "A" team lineup.

good... i'm going to the game tonight ... nice to see the 'a' team.

 

[calsnowskier]

Bum getting the "A" team lineup.

They want to get him the record. He is currently tied with Cainer for most wins at the Cove.

 

[calsnowskier]

But yeah, that is about as “A” as this org can muster right now. I wouldn't even swap Dugger and Pillar. Dugger’s stock took a dive this year

 

[calsnowskier]

The only possible argument would be to move Dubon to short and play Solano at second. But that is a stretch

 

[pachyderm]

We can't lose anymore if we want a .500 or better record...

And we do, right?

Meh. I just want to win for boch and for the kids to look good. Record is immaterial.
