kenny r says we might have something in a few days...78 game season.

feels incomplete but something is better than nothing
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Agreed on both parts.  The KBO is helping a little but is like bandaid on an amputation.

i watched a bit of a game last night. one team get 4 straight hits...then aaron altherr comes up and strikes out.

felt like the phillies were back

Did you see the cutout fans behind home plate last night/this morning?  Classic.

I'll take your word for it but that's an amazing stat

QB Eagles

You could probably generate similar stats favoring Abreu against Ichiro too.

200 ground ball hits, 50 walks is a magical season. 180 hits, 100 walks is just okay.

abreu played in the wrong era. hed be a god now.

i wonder what would happen if someone with gwynn's hitting ability came along now. hed be forced to be more selective in order to walk more (thereby cutting down on his hitting total) and be coached to hit more for power (thereby cutting down on his hitting total). still...his 1997 season when he was legit fat. 37 years old. hit 372 with 17 bombs. theyd shift his ass into outs now though.

all in all he wound up with a 132 career ops+, just higher than abreu's 128.

Don Ho

This break from the bums has been great for my blood pressure.  We'd be 8 weeks in and I'd have holes in the wall, damaged keyboard, dogs would be cowering downstairs in fear, as Hector blows late game leads, Hoskins swings at air with men in scoring position, Arrieta scowling like a bitch, you know the usual.

I miss you guys.

It's only May 20. It's possible they wouldn't have even started sucking for another week or two.
