At least Grady Little is far away from deciding his fate

If I were to revert to form, I'd point out that JCT finds it useless to employ the old "think about baseball" tactic to diminish a woody, since men in tight attire make his junior member stand at attention.


But I'm beyond that phase now.

At the risk of offending the Cult of Tomas Oracle...


Wolfman...

Unit was 2-3 with a 5.68 ERA in July...


Pretty sure most MLB/AL cities are "warm" in July.


Maybe leave the baseball takes for people who know at least something about baseball next time?

You do realize the vast majority of MLB games are played in the summer right?

You also realize the summer produces "warm weather," right?

Seriously, old man. Think.

Think.

Elvismonster doesn't post here. I think its because he finds the emphasis on cruelty offensive.

On the subject of your stella doro stuffing self, however, allow me to extend a helping hand of understanding... was there some childhood incident that wrecked you, such that you find demeaning others an outlet for your enduring hatred and anger?

Maddux had a no no against cincy going last week through 7 and then there was a one or two hour rain delay and Grady f'n Little took him out of the game. First pitch from relief pitcher = single.

Maddux had a no-no through 6 innings and the rain delay was 45 minutes.

Continue sucking.

Leave him alone. He was nails with his breakdown of Grover Cleveland Alexander vs Tony Lazzeri in the 26 Series. I mean come on, everybody has a bad 80 years here and there.

You mean April, when Johnson went 4-2 with a 4.71 ERA?

Or night games, where his ERA is about .3 lower than the "warm" day games?

This isn't going well for you.

The oppressive heat in seattle must have explained why he was nails there. Or maybe it was because he was younger than atleast some of wolfie's kids.
