Chuck Thompson was long ago, but I doubt that he'll ever be displaced in my memory as the best, with Miller a distant second because his work was long after my formative childhood years in Baltimore.

Now it makes sense why they brought up Lester gives them lefty bat to play at 3rd while Henderson gets some rest.  Then if he gets little worse we can IL him and Coloumbe come off leave.  

They brought him up before Gunnar's injury. Just fortuitous it worked out that way, it wasn't planned.

The question is what the hell happened against Cleveland? Worst series we've played this year given the quality of the opponent.

They punted the third game of the series.  The first game was close most of the way the Perez came in and let bunch of runs scored.  The second game we jumped out on them then let them claw their way back into it but just got the win.  The third game was the only really bad one and the offense still but up 8 runs.  The bullpen game was just a bad decision and then the pitchers made it worse by none of them doing their job.

Hyde said it was a lingering issue for a few days so he must have been having some discomfort during Guardians series they were worried about.

Maybe you'd like her followup effort, started after her partner died of leukemia?

 

I like that song better. I actually like a lot of downer feeling music, but the first song you posted was pushing it for me. I like Gillian Welch, for example, but some of her songs are just so incredibly stark and dark that it doesn’t take much for me to OD on her music.

The song was called ebb and flow.  That doesn't exactly have an upbeat vibe as a title.

Here is something more upbeat in tempo but darker thematically.

And yea, they did more than play in High School classrooms.

They are one of my go to bands when I want to listen to this style of music.

There were exactly six people at my high school who would have really dug this—they all sat together at the same lunch table.

      Good, he should cry. His performance the last 3 months including playoffs isnt something that gets forgotten easily. Atleast not for me

      Adley's health this season

      By Witchy_Chick · Posted

      I wonder if Adley's issues are something health related but not necessarily an injury per se.  IIRC we all found out in the offseason that Ced was suffering from Crohn's in.......2020?  2021? 🤔  After Ced was pretty dreadful offensively all that season (whichever year it was). I mean something like that could potentially be at play with Adley.  Health issue but not an "injury."  Maybe something that was medically revealed after the HBP? IDK, spitballing here.

      Not trying to be naive or contradictory, but are we sure that he's swinging at bad pitches?

      I tend to agree, I'm not convinced. Cowser had hand/nerve stuff and continued to play his game. Westburg broke his hand, came back, and looked good. Not sure why getting hit on the hand suddenly made Adley swing at trash out of the zone.

      I hate that Adley getting hit on the hand is the excuse why he kept playing and his season went down the crapper, yet Italian Breakfast gets hit on the hand, breaks his thumb and works his ass off to get back to his team in time for the playoffs.    I’m a 50% believer that Adley getting hit on the hand is the reason that he was so bad towards the end of the season, but it still doesn’t explain the drop in OBP. He’s getting down to Adam Jones levels of on base percentage.  His approach seems to be totally different than when he first came up. A hurt hand doesn’t have anything to do with that.

      I watched both the Elias and Hyde press conferences in full and they both get weird around the Adley question. You can feel the hesitation on saying it's not an injury, and the way they kind of squirm around the question. If we can point to the HBP then surely they can do and would have done MRIs if Adley still felt iffy after the x-ray. Unless he's truly hiding it. But it sure feels like all parties know about something and for some reason that makes no sense to me, they aren't divulging it.

      They might not even know. Initial x-rays were negative, it's possible that Adley thought he could just play through it and maybe it wasn't painful, just fatigued? Who knows. But unless Adley tells them (assuming they're not hiding it), nothing they can really do. Wonder if Adley just felt the All Star Break was coming up, so he'd just deal.  I think it's way too obvious of a data point to ignore, personally.
