    Right, because nobody hits 86 home runs and everyone hits 498.

    If you lived in Detroit, would you be in a good humor?
     
    I consider any throwing back of an opponent's home run ball to be a cheap imitation of the Wrigley Field fans. They originated it.

    That isn't a crazy stat at all. The Rangers and M's have never won a World Series. This is only the Astros second year in the division, but they never won a World Series. The A's haven't won one since 1989.
    Since the Angels won the World Series, Boston has won three, SF and ST. Louis has won two, NYY, Marlins, Phillies, and the CWS have won one.

    The Ghost of Bob Starr reacted to disarcina in Bo Porter leaves Astros dugout to confront Jed Lowrie over unwritten rules violation   
    If I were Houston's GM, Porter would be gone today -- the only reason he may not be is because no one really wants the Houston job, Porter has a contract and the Astros can afford to pay the salary of TWO managers for a 100 loss team that averages (it seems by watching the games played in Houston on TV) about 15,000 per game (and that estimate might be high) in attendance.  Heck, in Texas, Friday night high school football has bigger crowds than that and the first day of U of Texas Longhorns Spring Practice probably draws five times that.
     
    even for a guy's first MLB manager's job, he's going to wind up with a 100 loss season on his record.........so if Houston do want to replace Proter..tough to find any takers.
     
    what unwritten rule?  It wasn't the top of the eighth or even ninth inning, it was the FIRST inning and Houston deployed one of those extreme, play the hitter to pull the ball shifts........so Lowrie lays down a bunt and because it was not that good of a bunt the Houston pitcher is able to field it and throw the less than fleet foot Lowrie out at first base..........
     
    what's the big deal?
     
    If Porter is going to act like that then he needs to go back to coaching Little League teams where over-hyped coaches and parents have this kind of reaction.........

    The only balls worth keeping are those hit by "the best offensive player in baseball, Miguel Cabrera."

    The Ghost of Bob Starr reacted to Inside Pitch in Trumbomb   
    From his ESPN player profile page:
     
    Spin: Since he hit his fifth home run of the season April 6, Trumbo has posted a putrid 0.83 average (3-for-36) over nine games  He's currently sporting a negative WAR (-0.3).  
     
    April May are normally his best months -- maybe this is the year he pulls off a great second half.

    The Ghost of Bob Starr got a reaction from tomsred in Is vintage Pujols back?   
    He's back until he goes 0-4 Friday and then a 700th thread is started in this chapter about how we are screwed with his contract.
    Then he'll do welll In May and we can cut and paste this thread and change the numbers.
    Oh the ride we enjoy en route to game 162.

    The Ghost of Bob Starr reacted to TobiasFunke in Teens spending all their money on Starbucks   
    I think it starts with the parents treating their kids so much older than what they are. So 7th grade kids act like they are a bunch of 21 year olds drinking Starbucks. It's like a damn near status symbol.
