The catcher was closer after getting HBP. lol.
Because Rizzo in my opinion is done.
LOL. I've lost track as to how many times people said he's done.
DJ moves to 1B. It would be quite a leap for Rice since he just moved up to AA ball.
The Yankees are poised to call up their No. 12 prospect, catcher/first baseman Ben Rice, for reps at first base in place of Rizzo. Rice has been surging at the plate since a recent promotion to Double-A Somerset, tallying 14 hits in 42 at-bats (.333) with three homers and 10 RBIs at Triple-A.
I thought of that but you're braver than I.
If it is he lost weight. You'll have to ask Paulie.
He has had some rocky times personally so I'm sure he needs a break from golf.

There is not a golfer alive that can claim he has never missed a short putt. That was just sad to watch and you can't help but feel for him. We have all missed them.
Huh? That is the explanation from Wikipedia.
No huh about it. You looked the expression up and voluntarily supplied it here.
Now you want to continue the conversation and quite frankly my dear I am not interested. As I said it is an asinine expression and simply not in my vocabulary.
The umpire who missed sensitivity training this spring.
The Yankees have now lost a series to the Dodgers and the Red Sox and here come the Orioles for three.
Trevino is not the answer behind the plate against a team that can run. That was truly embarrassing.
KC is holding their own and is in the WC right now.
He needs to call Ohtani and ask him about his body armor batting glove.
After looking deeper into the company I'm not going anywhere. We've been real pleased with Fidelity. I didn't like the way they talked about Fidelity and what they were investing me in and in turn me since I play a large part in the investment decisions. And when I pressed them on how they would invest our money they were never quite clear even when I pressed them on that!!! I got the impression the only thing they wanted was my money and I'd lose control over what they were investing in. The other thing is they have no local office here and the closest office is either in Charlotte or Raleigh. Finally I was turned off by Ken Fisher from what I read about him and I'm sure my wife would object since the guy is a pig when it comes to women. That good old boys BS has no business in today's world. But that is just me and I have to live with my wife. lol.
Hope you had a good FD as well. The kid had to go in at 5PM since they are behind so we had an early dinner of steak and lobster tails cooked by yours truly.

LOL. Well she has all the buzz words in there for a female who hates men. It truly is an asinine expression but she got her 15 minutes of fame.
Let's not go there. lol.
Time to reread the book of Revelation.
I suspect they feel "seminal" is a clever play on "semen":
A subliminal message no doubt.
I didn't see any mention of an earthquake. Now a volcano would disrupt air travel. But in any event the audit should have concluded by now. I have no idea why people get hooked on a stock trading at less than a dime with a mine in Indonesia.
And now KC has to face LA. My advice is walk Ohtani.
This week Food Lion is selling NY strips for 7.99 a lb.
Harris Teeter is selling NY strips for 9.99 a lb.
They are less than 5 minutes apart from each other. My wife went to Harris Teeter and asked if they would honor Food Lion's price. Nope so she said fine she'd go to Food Lion for the steaks.
She went to Food Lion and they had none in the meat section. So she rang the bell and the butcher came out and he said how many do you want? She asked for 3 and he said he'd be right back. He brings back one package and my wife asks aren't you going to fill up the slot? Nope we can't leave them out because of all the stealing.
If the greens get too fast they'll hose / cool them down.
It's the same complaint every year when they play the USGA Open. The fairways are too narrow, the rough too high and the greens too fast.
Women had the same complaints this year as well.
The USGA sets up their courses to play to par. Not 20 under like the PGA.

I'm sure the Yankee Royals series was tough to watch for Royals fans. Two weeks ago the Yankees experienced the same fate when the Dodgers came to town and took 2 out of 3. In both instances our teams just go beat by a better team at the moment.
A trip inside baseball's knuckleball factory

Quite a long article about the knuckleball but I knew Wakefield would get a mention. I dreaded everytime he pitched against the Yankees.
The Beginnings of Knuckleball Nation
Nowlin grew up outside of Boston and went to about a dozen Red Sox games per year as a kid. During one of those nights at Fenway Park, running around with his friends, he was witness to a performance by one of the game’s great knuckleballers: the late Tim Wakefield. The way he describes the moment feels like a scene from a movie.
"I ended up right behind the backstop and Wakefield was taking a no-hitter into the seventh," Nowlin said. "And it was like quintessential Fenway Park. It was hazy, Green Monster in the background, Citgo sign. And he was just throwing these balls that didn’t rotate at all. I was looking around like, ‘Is this real? Are we all watching the same thing?’ I was looking at the adults for reassurance: ‘Is this … can he do that?’ I’ve been obsessed with it ever since.”
MLB and the Red Sox have moved up the start of tonight's game so Celtics fans can watch both games as the Celtics go for the sweep.
Bob Cousy’s NSFW take on Celtics’ title pursuit vs Mavs
Bob always keeps it real.

https://clutchpoints.com/celtics-news-bob-cousys-nsfw-take-on-bostons-pursuit-vs-mavs
“I'm 95 f****** years old with one foot in the grave and I can barely move,” said Cousy, per Dan Shaughnessy of The Boston Globe. “I know I'm in overtime. So everything in your life becomes more meaningful. And one of the last things I want to be able to see is for the Celtics to hang up banner number 18.”
Cousy won six NBA championships with the Celtics during the late 1950's and early 1960's, also winning the league MVP award in 1957. Cousy is regarded as one of the game's first truly great point guards and was a staple of one of the league's original dynasties.
The elusive and unheralded milestone Aaron Judge is chasing

https://www.mlb.com/yankees/news/how-aaron-judge-can-reach-400-total-bases-milestone
Walks don't count.
Before we go further, a reminder of what total bases encompasses: It's the total number of bases accumulated via hits. A batter gets one base for a single, two for a double, three for a triple and four for a homer. So, it's a simple calculation: singles + 2x doubles + 3x triples + 4x home runs.
Basically, the better the hitter, the more total bases. A player with a high number of total bases generally hits for average and power, combining strong bat-to-ball skills with the ability to slug. Just as a .300 average is still considered a good hitting season, 300 or more total bases also generally signifies a good year. Get to 350 or more, and that's a great year. But 400? That's next-level stuff.
I don't mean to give you a hard time about Blake. I grew up in a different time and I'm too old to change now. I'm not sold on analytics or using 4-5 pitchers every games as opposed to starter, setup and closer which is something the Yankees did with great success. I think the pitch clock puts too much stress on the pitcher, and the limitation in mound visits makes it even worse. And all that to save less than 30 minutes a game while fans in the bleachers are paying $100 for a ticket.
And the ghost runner was supposed to be temporary but now leaving the last pitcher to take the loss but not be charged for an earned run. That is not baseball and I will continue to rail against it.
As far as Monty is concerned I do feel bad for him as the article I posted seemed to agree. Last year when he was with the Rangers the pitching coach Maddox turned him around and he got a ring for it. That's something the current Yankees can't claim.

That should shorten the trip to Mars for SpaceX.
The fact that the company is based in NV and has a gold mine in Indonesia should be a red flag for anyone. Now the audit team (poor suckers) were supposed to go in May. Surely they should be back by now and the audit published.
Looks like he did cash in most of the calls that you posted.

It was a volcano. Not an earthquake.
You have to feel bad for the audit team that had to travel to Indonesia to find the mine.
We have a local guy here, competitor when working at Jones. He’s a fiduciary also….. I wouldn’t give him a dime!!
When you say a local guy I assume you're talking about a Fisher guy?????
