I’ve been firmly on the Torres should never start over anybody on this team bandwagon for a long time. Maybe if somebody needs rest. Maybe.

What do we really expect to find out about Torres by starting him? I bet we find out eventually that he’s not very good.

At least give Lewis a chance to prove that he has no place on the team before ostensibly removing him from it.

Random side discussion!

If you played little league, or play softball, or whatever, what kind of a hitter are you?

In Little League, I almost always hit stuff up the middle. LIne drives and grounders, mostly. Not a lot of power to speak of. I could work a count, though!

For some reason, I always hit the best on pitches that were low and on the outside corner. I could never handle inside stuff.

I always got screwed on defense. I’m a pretty good second or third baseman, but a terrible, terrible outfielder. I have no judgment on fly balls. But in Little League, if you’re a bad outfielder, they assume you’re just bad everywhere, so you get stuck out in right field.

Things to do before you kick the bucket

Some people interpret it as things to do when you learn you’re terminal or otherwise have limited time left on this earth. I interpret it as life goals/things to do before I die or am too old to do them. As in kick the bucket.

Oh, no, I have no idea what you were talking about, but "Beirut" prompts a Pavlovian response in me.

I can’t remember the name of the movie from 1987, but Kurt Russell and Robin Williams had been high school football teammates long before, and they were unhappy with current lives. Anyway, one of their wives wants to discuss the horrible fate of Beirut, and Kurt Russell was tipsy and said that line.

probably him or maybe Max Scherzer. maybe even Joba. Kershaw’s younger age makes him quite appealing, though.

sure.

But Longoria is maybe the third best third baseman in the AL. Timmy is the best pitcher on Earth.

I think I included Youkilis, even though he mainly plays first these days

But he came up as a 3B. It’s hard to argue with anyone other than A-Rod being above Longo as far as full-time 3B go, I agree.
