    BECAUSE THERE ARE SET BULLPEN ROLES AND WE MUST ALWAYS ADHERE TO THEM.

    But really, that's the only thing I can think of.

      Cubs-Reds start delayed due to weather. Cards-Brewers probably would be if not for being indoors.

          Stanton with 4 Ks so far today.

          And now Didi with his second 3 run bomb of the game. Oh my.

            Couldn't catch 92.

            Probably trying too hard.

                I swear every time I se Austin Pruitt come in as a reliever, he gets into a jam.

                  Does Didi mention himself in his tweets? I can't recall reading a tweet of his highlighting his performance.

                    Hadn't heard anything. I've got the Score up on MLB.TV so if I hear anything I'll pass it along.

                      Now that I think about it, I can't remember him referencing himself either. I guess we'll see after tonight.

                        Yankees fans booing Stanton on his home debut, despite them being 5 runs up in the 8th. Way to stay classy

                          Teheran vs. Bryce.

                          Over/Under 0.5 HR tonight?

                          I take the over.

                          It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

                            5 K’s in one game from Stanton. How though.

                              Make that 5. He's getting the Bronx cheer today. Welcome to NY Stanton.
