Waino's the best, around!

nothings ever gonna keep him down!

"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."

A few years ago they released the ’67 versions of Brock and Gibby, as well as grey versions of the ’64 Brock and Gibby. Now, all they have is the ’64 versions in home white/yellow.

The McCarver that came out this year is the ’67 version. Between that and the Hernandez 79 version, I could spend $600 really quick.

the problem is that the 48 seems a bit too small while the 52 is huge. Lame.

what?

how is this relevant to unrested K-Mac = bad? esp. when he’d just gotten into a groove — the last walk he issued was on September 18.

We got very few takeaway lessons from last year and overexposing Kyle McClellan was Lesson One of This Bullpen. yet he’s been pitching more innings than some of the starters!

actually, Kmac

has done a hell of a job this year of preventing inherited runners from scoring. He was absolutely the right guy to bring in there.

The mistakes were letting AW start the 7th and letting KMC stay in after he walked the first guy he faced.

And I will say this

as a Cavs fan, regular season achievements matter. The Cavs were the favorites to roll to the Finals and didn’t. They took game 82 off with a chance at a home record because they said they had ‘bigger plans’ for the season.

Well, they ended up going home without that record and without a Championship. You get an opportunity to do something memorable, do everything you can to accomplish it.

I'm not a person that will sit here and roast Tony...

However, if you’re going to pull Waino after two straight hits……. you pull Kmac after he gives up a couple runners…..

Some nights as a pitcher, you don’t have it… tonight, KMac obviously didn’t have it…..

I’m sure Waino will take the high road and say “well, if I get the first couple guys out, it’s a moot point”……..

On the flip side, i’m sure it’s killing him he didn’t get to 20…..
