Baaaaaaah! (I typed that in my goat voice.)

It almost a dead heat for 5 through 9 right now with not much wiggle room in between the neighborhoods ending in 4 and beginning with 10. Lots of time for stuff to play out. 13 more series left. Those with playoff ramifications include Colorado (WC seed), New York (WC/D), two with Cleveland (seeding, maybe D), two each with Kansas City and Minnesota (WC, maybe D). So 8 series with some sort of playoff scenario depending upon how you want to look at it. Those series with Los Angeles, two with Chicago, Toronto, and Oakland.... Go ahead and experiment with Castellanos in the OF. Run your minor league call ups out there and see if there's anything of value. Hopefully Norris is healthy because there's still much to find out about him yet.

Honestly, I have not looked at it much. But I guess I look at it in terms of tiers rather than seed lines. Cleveland and Boston in that order. I probably agree with some sort of Toronto/Washington/Milwaukee in the middle seeds of the bracket. And then a grab bag for the last 3 seeds where 6-10 ain't much different from one another.

Can't say I blame him, but it might not be the best thing to say out loud.

I forgot all about Saunders lasting 3 seasons. I see Collins on the list for 2+. For some reason I was reading the list as nobody had lasted more than 2 seasons as coach, so I was off.

The season is starting two weeks earlier, not two months. And even at that, the schedule is still only 82 games.

Cleveland (1), Boston (2), Toronto (3), Washington (4), and Milwaukee (5). 6th seed? Or is one of those teams being voted off of the island?

Total solar eclipse 2024. Come on over.

That's absurd. I don't disbelieve it, I am sure its true. But that's 25 seasons. And that includes Rick Carlisle and Larry Brown. I guess Brown not making 3 seasons makes sense.

Just a wild *** guess.

I would imagine payment is done online. Register your credit card ahead of time. Yeah, I can't see using that for certain perishables. We used something like this when we went to Disney. It was a pharmacy CVS type place that delivered to the resorts. $35 orders and over were free delivery, not including liquor and smokes. We ordered fruit, bottled water, maybe some snacks, and other beverages that didn't apply to the $35 threshold to keep in our hotel room. The bananas were all the same ripeness which was tough for a 6 day trip and the pears were a bit on the softer side. The math now escapes me on how we got to the $35. Eh, oh well. They delivered my beer, so its all good.

Hey, this is kind of a fun one: Travis d’Arnaud’s position in Wednesday’s box score read “3B-2B-3B-2B-3B-2B-3B-2B-3B-2B-3B-2B-3B-2B-3B-2B-3B-2B”

But the Rangers will probably find a way to scratch a few more runs off of the Tigers.

I wonder if Castellanos can pitch.

The Rangers scored at least one run in 15 of 24 innings that they were up to bat. And Fulmer and Verlander had starts in 2 of the 3 games.
