Venus is also shining brightly low in the western sky tonight.

It’s swamp gas. Or maybe a weather balloon

My astrology obsessed neighbor was it’s Venus. And Jupiter is low in the southwestern sky.

I’m astronomy obsessed and yes, that is Venus in the west and Jupiter (and Saturn) in the southeast.

Right, I meant southeast for Jupiter!

In approximately 2000 MLB games played this year, there have been fewer than 50 complete games pitched.

Who is the only MLB team without a CG this year? Take a guess.

Remember the old days, when starters would just grind out games and never come out….?

Kinda miss those days

I remember 15 years ago when I played fantasy baseball, complete games was a stat.

Things are changing, aren’t they? Wins mean less now, too. And RBIs. I haven’t played fantasy baseball for a long time. Do they use OPS or WAR now?

LanaBanana

I haven’t played for a longtime, either.

Won’t be an E-3, but should be. Goes as a hit, but he should of had it.

I think it’s great that El Demente has pitched so well tonight. If Joe takes him out now it’s ok with me.

I agree, but Jose is still in the low 90s pitch count wise.

Joe has taken some pitchers out early to disasterous results.

Whatever happens, love what Suarez has done this season

What is up with Regnifo at SS and Fletch at 2nd?

Can’t believe that Rengifo is being evaulated for SS for next year…

Shocker to me too. I’ve never been impressed with his glove skills.

With Inglesias gone, feel ok with Captain Jack at short and better yet, Fletch

wonder what he thought with no Iglesias to greet him

rosstrade

I think Shohei was confused with Iglesias’ Tomahawk Chop.

He wasn’t sure if it is politically correct to do the chop with too much enthusiasm.

Don’t take him out, Joe.

Suarez deserves to finish this game….

NO CISCHEK….

Give Raisel a break….

Let Junk start the next game….

a single is good, too. Two hits tonight, better things ahead!
