10 Answerable Questions

Post by DOUGHBOYS » Fri Jun 02, 2017 4:54 pm

10 Questions we know the answers to.....


1. Whit Merrifield is already a better hitter and has a hot bat.
Alcides Escobar has proven over a lonnnnng period of time that he is no leadoff hitter.
Why does Merrifield hit eighth and Escobar first?

2. First Mike Napoli, now CJ Cron...
Instead of good hitters being in the Sciosia doghouse, why not just remove Sciosia and his doghouse?

3. Pence, Parker, Span, Ruggiano, Calixte, Williamson, Brown, Hernandez...seriously?
Man, Angel Pagan musta done something really bad to Giants suits, right?

4. Joc? Do you pronounce that Jock or Joke?

5. Yoenis Cespedes gets hurt in batting peactice, the Mets play him,
Eduardo Roriguez gets hurt warming up, the Red Sox pitch him.
Today's player cannot perform well with an owwie.
When will teams realize this?

6. It happens most years, Jansen and Chapman are over drafted, then over perform in ratios and underscore Saves.
Will we do it again next year?

7. Will Jake Arrieta be the Edwin Encarnacion (rich contract) or the Jose Bautista (not rich) of the free agent season?

8. The Pirates outfield laid claim to being the best in baseball going into the year.
Miami, Boston, heck, even Cincinnati have easily passed them.
Did they ever really click together?

9. Mr. Met was heckled by a guy insulting his Mother.
Did the heckler really think that Mr. Met has a Mother?
Did Mr. Met flip him off because he took it personally or because the fellow was so stupid as to think a mascot had a Mother?
And how do we know that Mr. Met was fired?
Still looks like the same guy to me :D

10. My local team, the Rockies have unbearable announcers.
You know the kind, if the rival makes a great play, it was an ok play.
If the Rockies make an every day play, they turn it into being wonderful.
A play that other teams can't make.
Now that the Rockies are winning, they are arrogant, unbearable announcers.
I would like technology to change their dialect from English to Spanish, so that I can enjoy the sounds of the ball game, while being unaware in what is being said.
Is that possible?
On my tombstone-
Wait! I never had the perfect draft!

Check your television/cable settings for something called "SAP" or Second Audio Program. Good luck! 8-)
