It probably is. I mean you can probably develop the skill if you wanted to. The question is can you do that and have otherwise effective at bats? Who is going to put a guy in the lineup just to foul off pitches?

Are you suggesting their goal should be to foul off pitches?

Yea, it's pretty clear their approach on offense isn't working. Not as if they are leading the league in scoring.

Just a minor correction, Kimbrel is now 1 for 5 in 1-run save opportunities. I imagine you did this before the game yesterday.

Folks want to give up nothing and get some sort of sure thing in return.

I got my cards in my spokes, I'm practicing my jokes.

I comment back when folks act like the Yankees will sign every free agent or that voters will give a Yankee preferential treatment. I did mis-read Philip's comment. This ain't the 50's, this ain't the 90's. Folks here give the Yankees too much credit.

Good pull but that was 40 years ago. Last 25 we have Judge and Arod who had a pair of 9 win seasons. I don't think a big market bias is there for awards anymore.

Do you have evidence showing the Yankees win MVPs they don't deserve over say the last 25 years? The Judge MVP was very defendable.

I don't think it will. I'm not sure bringing in a big arm or two in trade will do it.

That is correct. I won't sleep well either way. I don't have the excess energy to get all worked up over 1 of 162.

Something Buck did that I agreed with was not getting guys up unnecessarily. Warming up in the pen isn't game action but it does add up.

Oh now, and we've only got another 80 games.

Sure would be cool to have a big hoss in the bullpen that could strike some guys out.

Since I'm doing the music thing tonight...

Have to let him walk three before you make the change.

I think youtube knew this was coming, it went from Arrows to Ween doing Baby B!tch.

No, that's a canoe.

It's cool, we got McCann out there.

Yep. The bass is obnoxiously forward in the mix.

I kinda prefer the version from the Arrows.

Would be nice if the Jays hung around near .500 just long enough to not sell by the deadline.

Jagger is 80.

Roy is right. She started as a literal teenager with the Runaways.
