With DeGrom out, I wouldn’t mind seeing Sanchez. He should be familiar with the pitching and could strike a blow against his former compadres.

[Mrperkins]

Reyes’s wildness does perhaps give the hitters a little discomfort while digging in. While not ideal, it can have a silver lining.
DeGrom clearly saw my reference to the Jiminez/Johnson matchups and saved himself some embarassment.

[Mrperkins]

I remember a seemingly daunting matchup like this a mere 22 years ago when young pup Jose Jimenez outdueled Randy Johnson twice with shutouts in 2 weeks, including a no hitter in an otherwise terrible season. You never know what these young guys can muster when they go against the best of the best. But I predict 8-0 Mets.

Any Hicks news?

[Mrperkins]

She went back to your room and blew you off or from afar? That could be 2 very different outcomes.

[Mrperkins]

Nick Plummer using his 9th life. That pitching staff doesnt look imposing.

That’s what I’m hoping. As much as Bader struggles he is still better than Williams.

Thanks Puggs. We got a late start having children in our 40’s. Hoping it keeps us young.

Gscottar, there is a bobby allison racer but I was going with the power hitting Washington Senator/Minnesota Twin from 50’s/60’s

[Mrperkins]

Jd Drew, Chad Tracy, and that oh so delicate Albert Belle.
It might help that the wife is having a girl so I have heard a million girl names the last 2 months

Billy Ashley

Bobby Allison

Pete Rose

Domingo Jean, yet another overhyped yankee prospect

[Mrperkins]

First time I’ve seen Miller throw this year. His slider looks a lot loopier than what I recall

[Mrperkins]

No Sosa…., but no Carpenter. I’ll take it. I’m glad they have the “A” defence in for a rookie on the mound.

[Mrperkins]

Drew Pomeranz is not that bad. 2014-2017 were good to great, including an all star nod and deserving another. Now if he becomes STU Pomeranz, Drew’s bother and former Cardinal farmhand, that would be disappointing

[Mrperkins]

I look at Knizner as Kelly Stinnett 2.0. Which I would be just fine with.

[Mrperkins]

Glad to hear the account. Hoping to watch the game after the wife and son hit the hay. Right now Mr Monkey is on the ol tube at Casa Perkins

[Mrperkins]

I’ll be seeing some games in Springfield early in the year. I’ll have the 1 1/2yr old and the pregnant wife along so the reports will not be very detailed.

[Mrperkins]

Dave Veres was tough to watch. All they had to do was not swing and every pitch ended up in the dirt.

[Mrperkins]

I can only think of one guy who did that and I think the union about had a fit. Gil Meche manned up and walked away from easy money from a team that couldn’t afford to miss on their big contracts.

[Mrperkins]

Carpenter can’t just announce retirement and walk away, particularly if he has Andrew Miller in his ear. But an injury that lingers and prevents him from being re-activated would pass the eye test. I guess if owners can manipulate service time, players should be able to milk the DL and receive their cash.

My favorite memory of glass bottle style soda is the pop machine with the door. My brother and I were sure that if you pulled on 2 bottles carefully at EXACTLY the same time you might get an extra soda but it never worked.
