    Sick of talking about vaccines but it's sad that Realmuto's only regret was losing "only $260,000" (yeah, nice way to bond with the regular people who pay your salary) and nothing about letting his teammates down in a crucial series.

    Schwarber "#1 seed" in home run derby. Brings up bad memories of Bobby Abreu lighting up that event and then sucking the entire second half of the season.

    that can not be the same Sixto that played for the Phillies in the 80's, can it? Probably just someone liked his name I guess?

    Kinda off topic about him but why is he our leadoff hitter? Shouldn't our power hitter be batting cleanup or 3rd or 5th? Usually you have a "speedy" guy that gets on base lead off like J-Roll, Rickey Henderson, Ichiro, etc...

    Need to sweep Mattingly's Marlins, but i'll take 2 out of 3.

    Camden venue is sweet. They’ve done a good job there. The view is just incredible from the lawn 

    Yeah, I ended up at Dave matthews last night.

    The Schwarber lead-off thing is weird. Maybe because they don't have anyone who can perform that duty competently?

    Yeah, this is the same kinda thing Gabe got shit for doing with Hoskins. And in both (all) instances I agree with it for no other reason than that they don't really have a leadoff guy. Hence just sticking the slow guys with high OBP at the top of the order. It's been since Jimmy I'd say that they haven't had a leadoff hitter, and he wasn't even a good leadoff guy. I always thought Shane should have been at the top on those teams.

    Related - they drafted Carl Crawford's son last night, so fingers crossed in 4 or 5 years we'll have a decent leadoff hitter.

    I didn't think Carl Crawford was that old.

    We all love Jimmy but I thought he might have set the all-time MLB record for pop-ups. I liked that whole "do one drag bunt in April and don't bother the rest of the year" thing he did. "Oh it's on the scouting report now." Are teams really that stupid? Maybe.

    The lost in the woods Oz campaign is saying Fetterman is another Bernie Sanders. Come on dude, I can't vote for the guy any harder.

    Congrats.
    I'm still resentful that people can do that now when I risked my life, repeatedly, to buy weed.  I quit and then they start legalizing it!  :lol:

    Ha.
    Ya, for anyone who knew 90s LA, we used to go to Pico & Hoover to buy, which is pretty much the last place anyone with a brain would go at night.

    I always just asked a waiter/waitress, host/hostess, bartender. Someone working at almost any restaurant or bar either was or had a source. You people actually bought weed from street dealers?
