Hopefully beating the team with the best record and best run differential in the majors 6-0 will shut a few doubters up.

I don't think it will

I still have some doubts
The La La La’s are the reigning champs, and I’m sorry, they’re going to have to blow up a big lead against them for me to be comfortable in terms of winning this year.
No matter what happens, lots of progress is being made, though.

The reigning champs are a .500 team right now
Until they start looking like a team that deserves to be above .500, I’m not worried about them

Yes
The sky looked AWESOME and a little bit terrifying (and I did both basic and advanced storm spotter training this spring). We only got a few drops of rain, which really surprised me. At one point there was a rainbow across the entire outfield, which was pretty cool. Apparently there was some awesome lightning but I missed most of it because I was watching the game and not the sky.

Well, their bullpen has been horrible and they're concerned about his stamina, apparently
So that’s why they’re sending Escobar to the ’pen again, I hear.

I don’t think anyone really saw it. I don’t even think old painty can Brian Thomas has seen it, and that guy would drink Clint’s ball sweat if they bottled it. People have sort of figured out that Clint is a horrible director and deserves to die in snorkeling mishap.
But my sister recently added it to our joint rental queue so I’ll end up seeing it soon probably.

That one was pretty good.
Definitely a well done remake, with a logical “reason” for the reboot actually written into the movie in a pretty clever manner.
I thought the guy who played Kirk was super soap opera plasticy and wish they’d pick someone better for that role, but whatever.
Overall definitely pretty good.
Oh, and the new doctor is terrible. It’s like watching someone He’s do a bad impression of the old doctor and it’s just annoying.
Th new Scotty was awesome, though. Pegg is greatness.

As a former Trekkie
I didn’t particularly like the fashion in which they used the “time travel/alternate reality” card to pretty much go off-canon as they pleased, myself. I also thought the “transwarp transportation” angle that gets Scotty and Kirk back onto the Enterprise mid-film was really, really weak.
And you’re right, the new McCoy was horrible.
But other than that, it was a pretty satisfying action flick.

How often can the loss of a baseball game be as completely laid on
one player as the Mets’ loss tonight can be?
Yes, obviously other people played parts, for good or bad, in bringing the game to that point… but ultimately the game was totally won if Castillo just makes an easy play… and then completely lost once he didn’t.
Usually such mistakes at least provide for a chance to salvage the game later on or in extra innings.
What a gaffe. That game was at 99.99% win expectancy with that ball on the way down… and then at 0% once the ball was dropped.

Wieters and Price
I fully expect both of them to challenge Andrus and Porcelain before too long. I don’t really care about the BBWAA awards of course, I’m just pleased as hell that Andrus has adjusted to the big leagues so well and so quickly. This is a hell of a lot of fun to watch.

The Sons of Josey Wales did quite well tonight.
Teagarden only had two doubles and coaxed a shutout from VP & Company meaning that stupid sonofabitch won’t play him until next Wednesday.
Face with a nice RISP hit.
Then there’s the player with “zero value” to the Rangers, Hank Fucking Blalock going yard for his 13th dinger.
Very nice.

It had been so long since a catcher was able to "coax" a shutout out of the rangers.
the preceding post was a great success.

Does it feel good to be able to say "face with a RISP hit"?
It’s been a while since you’ve been able to say that.

It must be your tremendous posting that gets them up to play at the ballpark everyday.

Also, in your sentence about Blalock, the rule is: If there's an opening comma, there must be a closing comma.
Incorrect: Then there’s the player with "zero value" to the Rangers, Hank Fucking Blalock going yard for his 13th dinger.

Anyone see Milton Bradley throw the ball into the stands thinking he'd just recorded the 3rd out?
So hilarious. He turns his back on the diamond (where runners have tagged up and are circling the bases with abandon) and spends several seconds pondering exactly where he’ll toss the ball, then lobs one into the RF bleachers.
Ah, Milton.

there seems to be some debate about whether it actually happened.

Hey did you guys see what Milton Bradley did?
It was so funny. He caught the ball, see, and must have thought it was the third out because — now this is hilarious — he threw the ball to the fans in the seats!!!!!
HHAHHAHAHHHAHAHHAHHAHHAHHAHAHA

I wonder what MB is up to these days...
I haven’t heard anything about him in a while.
