:lol: We're getting stock quotes now? Is there anything you can't do Fred? What's next? Currency exchanges rates?

 

Well, shucks..... now that I've been disabled for 4 months, a boy's gotta do something to bring in a few bucks, eh?

 

Disabled?

 

Yeah, I got some kind of old man's affliction called adhesive capsulitis in both shoulders. Technically, I'm not disabled, but my job involved constant travel which wouldn't allow me to go to therapy 3 times a week.

It is kind of painful, but the good news is, with therapy it usually goes away in time.

Neifi ends the inning with a grounder against a guy throwing beachballs.

Ryu in to pitch despite the announcer absolutely butchering his name on air.

[Balsa]

Wow. I'd be surprised if Pagan doesn't make the team at this rate. I hope he can play like this all year.

I have a feeling that Grissom makes it before Pagan.

[rawaction]

Wow. I'd be surprised if Pagan doesn't make the team at this rate. I hope he can play like this all year.

 

Any man whose name is an oxymoron is cool with me.

[BeerHere]

Our HS season had 12 games. That's 48 total games plus the playoffs if applicable.

 

Two homers per game? Every game for four years? I doubt it.

 

 

Wait a second, my math is on crack.

 

 

Well whatever it is, there is no friggin way that kid had 78 homers in HS.
