I believe his name was scooter.

Yes, I remember McCarver referring to him once as if he was a member of the broadcast team. "As scooter just mentioned..."

I've updated the leaderboard post, if you want to go bask in Olerud's presence on it.

I just appreciate that the only real positive on my team right now is my favourite player ever... though I'm disappointed in his lack of All-Star appearances considering his performance in Game 3.

If he were out west, I'd have given him more playing time.

Fine job, Lament. Go West!

In Jorge's defense, the lineups were all sent prior to the first game being played.

Oh I know. I still think he deserved more playing time based on the season he's having.

Also, I enjoy complaining about things sometimes.

Gonna try playing Happy Felsch in Minnie Minoso's spot.

Day sixteen has been run.

Rangers coming back down to earth. Royals finding a way.

THE ROYALS MAKE NO SENSE TO ME.

Lament wrote:THE ROYALS MAKE NO SENSE TO ME.

Agreed. I thought the Rangers would do better than the Royals. I guess they still could.

I probably would've thought the Royals would be better than the Rangers, but tied for first place after 32 games is just insane to me.

That's a big start to the second half. Time to claw back into this thing!

I expect the Cards, Reds and Yanks to make a move....

Cards are on fire. I think they've finally turned things around for good.

Same for me! Retribution for the Opening Day sweep I suffered from the Yanks. Can I actually get back to .500?
