My little sister LOVED Litlle  Jimmy Osmond! He was dreamy!

I think my sis had the 3rd album. But the song I dug (and still holds up) is Crazy Horses. I think Jay sang lead or split the duties with Donny usually, but this was the bassist on a really growly lead vocal. I always thought the older brother looked just like Jimmy Page.

Really hope Zimmerman goes at least 5 innings. 

Made it thru 4 with 40 pitches.

Exactly. The news is that Stewart is back for home opener, but I want Diaz instead.

I don't think the difference between Diaz and Stewart defensively is more than a run or two a month, although Diaz is potentially more suitable than Santander as a backup centerfielder. Neither is ideal though.

Yeah, if he needs to go on the IL, that is the obvious move. McKenna could go back whenever Stewart is ready. I guess Santander would be the backup centerfielder in that scenario, which isn't ideal.

I found it odd Mountcastle has been at DH all 3 games. Not that I didn’t think he wouldn’t DH some. Thought Santander would be there this weekend.

I like that Zimmerman went right after them following the HR.

Why wouldn’t Mullins just move to CF? Or let McKenna play CF Santander if best in RF.

Sisco has bad baseball instincts. He has a good eye but nothing else.

I really wish he would go away.

Mullins was running from 2nd too.  That was a coaching call.

Very efficient. We have guys that need work but you never know and don’t want the game to get too interesting. Like Murph said ideal game for the 2 Rule 5 kids.

Maybe they listened to my voice mails about how defense is important?

I remember that MGM lion logo from their 45 records. Blue and white? Blue and silver?

Nope, had it mixed up with some other label...

Love Santander’s approach....

Red Sox must not have listened to you.

Has anyone else noticed this is the worst camera work ever? Didn't even show Santander's hit.

A friend of mine who used to co-own Orpheus Records in DC told me once that Mike Curb (who ran MGM, but later had Curb Records, too) came in to his store and asked if he had any Curb Records. My friend directed him to the bins where he may find the appropriate acts but added, "Why in the world are you looking for anything associated with Curb? He's an a-hole."

About twenty minutes later, the woman who was with him came to the register to pay for the LPs and CDs and the credit card read "Mike Curb". It was Mrs. Curb at the register and (I presume) Mike Curb who asked where the records were.

If Garceau and Palmer are in Balmer, I guess that's the Sox camera crew.
