I only compared it to the cutter.

I don't hate the sweeper.

It was just the pitch du jour.

It worked great last year, but hitters adjust and it isn't a panacea.

Just like the cutter.

Lol Kevin calling the sweeper just reminded me of past quips in game thread conversations. Nothing real serious in my previous post. I'm slightly amused with the whole sleeper references.

100% agree

Personally I hated RedSox fans more when they got good.  Yankee fans were just smug like they deserved to win.  RedSox fans were so new to winning they let it go to their heads.   And the whole "Fenway South" crap pissed me off.  And Rameriz hitting his 500 home run in our park and saying "It was great he could do it here in front of all the Boston Fans.  I grew to have a true hatred of them ever since.

Get off my lawn time.  Not coming to another Sunday game.  Too many people standing up and blocking views and rugrats out of control.  End of rant.

Went to a game by myself a few weeks ago, so I could get a Mountcastle Bobblehead.   Sat in 310, RF upper deck, just to the right of the concourse entrance, at seat 1 (aisle seat) in row 4 or 5.

I kept count, and during the game, 62 people came in and out of my row, necessitating I either stand up of scrunch my legs to the side to let them through.   (Doesn't mean I had to get up 62 times, sometimes it would be three people at a time and I counted that as 3). 

It got very tiresome (i have arthritis in both knees, constantly standing up and sitting down over and over again is not optimal),

I've always kind of been in the mode of:  get your food and go to your seats by the start of the game, and maybe leave once (or twice at most) the entire game for a trip to the bathroom or to get a second beer or drink.   But these people were CONSTANTLY going in and out.   I should have chosen a seat in the middle of the row rather than on the aisle, I guess.

Over/Under 100 more at bats as an Oriole for Mountcastle?

Depends on if he's traded or not.  It's an interesting problem to have - and a good one - which position players get traded to free up the log jam.  Hopefully for major league ready pitching.
