[Sammys Boombox]

I feel like we've had this entire conversation before, including Sammy's Boombox at Safeco. Am I imagining things?

 

Yes. You are imagining at least my part about Safeco.

Oh, dang, I forgot I posted that. Lol. After that pre-engineering support over the phone they asked me to come to site to help during the actual startup.

No worries. Definitely a different post, but when you’re as close to crazy as I am, it doesn’t take much of a push!

Justin Turner broke his wrist on a HBP today.

Justin Turner broke his wrist on a HBP today.

When the bold prediction thread popped up I was going to say my big one is the Dodgers miss the playoffs. Between their pitching staff being held together by bubble gum and band aids and manipulating rules and some of their offensive guys coming back to earth.

AWESOME! Props to Betts for totally playing along with the announcers.

This really needs to become a regular thing across the sport.

[Bluescale]

This really needs to become a regular thing across the sport.

 

It should be a feature of MLB.tv. All players mic'd all the time, and as a subscriber, you get to choose which audio stream to listen to.

That kind of feature seems like it would fit in better on the facebook broadcasts...

Cubs: We're sorry, Tommy, but we've decided to designate you for assignment.

 

TLS: What? Why? Am I not hitting well enough?

 

Cubs: No, no, you're doing fine. It's your live stream views. You're not pulling in enough traffic.

Salvador Perez tore his MCL carrying luggage and falling. He’s out 6-8 weeks.

Rusty Staub passed away.

 

He was one of my favorite non-Cubs when I was a kid. Bright red hair. Smooth lefty swing. Played for the Tigers some, which was my grandpa’s team.

 

The guy lived a pretty amazing life off the field too, summed up well in this nice obit from ESPN:

My greatest disappointment as a fan is we never got footage of Roast pursuing a streaker.

The Yankees announced on Friday that they’ve placed outfielder Aaron Hicks on the 10-day disabled list with a strained right intercostal muscle. He’ll join fellow outfielders Jacoby Ellsbury (right oblique strain) and Clint Frazier (concussion) on the disabled list. Outfield prospect Billy McKinney has been recalled from Triple-A in place of Hicks.

 

McKinney gonna make his big league debut

I think we might have a Vaunted Yankees situation here. I think they might disappoint quite a bit

They are going to score too many runs to disappoint. I think the BoSox May be in that category.

This would be sooo much better if it said "hit dongs."

[JudasIscariotTheBird]

Oh cool. I have a new team to root against. The Cardinals/Giants of the AL:
