My favorite ham is the “$3 because it’s the day after Easter” ham.

Sorry for linking to the bad place, but given this discussion from earlier in the week, I thought you might appreciate their post-game video tonight. 15 seconds in…

I’m reminded by @glenhanlonsrazor.bsky.social that it was 2 2nd’s.

So between that and his ability to play up in the lineup, he’s…

It’s like she’s Evil Robin Scherbotskey.

Did a spit-take seeing the alt-text.

It’s ok if the labor market doesn’t go to sleep, but it does need to rest its body and be calm and quiet for a little bit.

I love Mookie, and he was a fantastic SS this year. I am hopeful for next year.

But I also worry that he needs to play 2B sooner rather than later, so I would prefer they not occupy 2B long-term.

Right. The problem with PP is 10% bad shooting luck and 90% lack of chances. Being the left-most team on this graph is bad.

Like Vondas said, “Not on the phone, Frank…”

I always assumed Dieter uses that for mound meetings because of “All I ever needed is here in my arm(s), words are very unecessary, they can only do harm.”

Caps so blah that the word “Blah” is more exciting than them.

I guess I’m trying to forecast what they should do within the context what I expect they’ll actually do. I agree that including Enrique is a bad idea but I doubt they’ll actually move on from him. (Same thing with Rojas).

That can’t be real. That’s gotta be Key in a wig.

I agree he’s not replicating that season (although I don’t think it was the park for Grisham the way it was for Bellinger - his road splits were way better).

I’m not married to Grisham, but they need a LH OF. Téo, Pages, Call, Edman and Enrique is a bunch of guys who hit lefties but not righties.

I suspect any LHH outfielder other than Tucker will be playing the big side of a LF platoon (with Kiké).

I agree Grisham isn’t an everyday CF anymore. But I think his defense plays fine in LF 19 times and CF 2 or 3 times a month.

I worry that “Mookie as a good SS” has a short life-span and he needs to move back to 2B sooner rather than later.

I also think Grisham makes sense as a LF/occasional CF and on a timeline that doesn’t block Hope/De Paula.

Vacations where you don’t have to worry about having enough books is wonderful.

I could talk myself into trading Sheehan to Boston for Duran and backfilling Sheehan in the rotation with Imai.

Spend the money on Imai to fix LF indirectly, and do it for less term than signing Tucker.
