The Louisville Bats are 80-57 on the year and have clinched a playoff berth. Must be nice for those Louisvillians to have winning baseball in their town.

Good job, and welcome to the crew, nycredsfan!
For those that may not have heard yet, Yonder Alonso has been called up to Louisville to help the team during the playoffs. Now nearly all of our upper level prospects are in Triple-A. Next spring could be interesting.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
I hadn't heard that. It's kind of surprising, actually, but really great news.
Also, I didn’t put it in the recap, but Jay Bruce and Ryan Hanigan are expected to join the Bats today on rehab. Who knows how long they’ll stay, but that makes for a sick lineup:
Heisey CF
Frazier 2B
Bruce RF
Francisco 3B
Alonso 1B
Valaika SS
Hanigan C
Ford LF
That lineup should score some runs
Baseball must be a great game to survive the fools who run it.— Bill Terry
yeah, I wonder if they are allowed to play in the playoffs if they are on rehab assignments
I have a feeling that is frowned upon.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
I think they are
I remember when Hideki Matsui was on rehab. They sent him to Trenton, because Trenton made the playoffs. It didn’t really seem fair, putting Godzilla in the lineup against AA pitching, but they did it.

nycredsfan is a mod?
What has this world come to?
"I'm going to become rich and famous after I invent a device that allows you to stab people in the face over the internet"
well, we were having some issues with one of the other mods not pulling his weight
So we wanted someone who could match BK, ’nukkah, and Scrabbles level of commitment.

Shut up, bitch! You don't even know me!

Baseball must be a great game to survive the fools who run it.— Bill Terry
Oh, and you know what I love about Yorman Rodriguez?
He just turned 17 three weeks ago and only one other player in the Pioneer League is still 17 and he turns 18 in December. And even though Rodriguez isn’t exactly tearing the league up, he’s not completely crapping all over himself either. A .681 OPS is bad, but I would expect a kid that is 4 or 5 years younger than the majority of players in the league to do much worse.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
Yeah, I'm really excited about him as a prospect.
He’s striking out a ton, but his BB/K ratios were really good in the GCL, so I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Plus he’s hitting for some power as a 16/17 year old with a wood bat. That’s pretty impressive.

all I'm worried about right now is that he's getting experience
It’s likely he’ll be in Billings again next year anyway.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
I'm not so sure about that
If he has a good spring training, and progresses nicely throughout April, he could be in Dayton in May. With how they rushed him up to Billings this year, I’m not sure they’d want to wait until July to get him back into games.

oh yeah, I forgot that Billings starts late
but they could cover that with extended spring training and instructional league. I doubt they’ll rush him to Dayton though. It’s not exactly like he’s earned a call up. Unless of course he goes back to the DWL and plays and tears it up.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
Road Trip!
BK and I are going to go the Bats playoff game on 9/11 (7:05 start time). I’m buying the tickets this afternoon. If you want to join us, chime in!
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
come with us
or are you up in Chicago now?

Oh, my bad
Well that’s what, 6 hours? Seems like a little distance to see the great Yonder Alonso.

For me it's something like 2 hours each way
When are you guys planning on leaving? I drove back from Evanston yesterday, so I’m in Cincinnati for a couple weeks.
we'll be trying to leave by 5pm
we’ll be coming back home after the game since BK has stuff to do the next morning.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
that is to say, you can ride down with us if you'd like
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
This is tempting and sounds fun
Let me get back to you in an hour or so. I think I have a few people I have to ask for permission, including
Kirkendall… I haven’t written anything for CJ in 5 days because I was moving from one apartment to another.
And my mom is out of town so I’ll have to check in with my dad. I might be out of the way for you to pick me up though?
not out of my way at all
I live off of Loveland Madeira
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
Cool
I think I’ll go, unless my dad needs me to help around the house tonight. I’d invite him along, but he has work early and I doubt he would be okay with getting back around 1:00
tonight?
the game is on 9/11
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
Ohhh.
Well, I’ll get back to you at a later date then. I don’t see any reason I wouldn’t be able to go.
well, I'm buying tickets today
so I’d like it if you got back to me today. :)
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
Okay, can I have an hour then?
I have a dentist appointment and have to call some people, and maybe invite another friend.
that's quite alright
I probably won’t buy the tix until 4 or so, to give others a chance to hop on.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
The best seats are only $12.25 even after the service charge
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
I haven't bought any yet
but when I checked this morning, right behind home plate was available in section 116 row P.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
Can't make it unfortunately

good, who needs you!
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
I'm sorry, baby, you know I love you
I just get so scared sometimes.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
If only I could understand how much you love me!
What happened to you last night slacker?
"I'm going to become rich and famous after I invent a device that allows you to stab people in the face over the internet"
I'm officially in training mode for Fantasy Camp
which means that I’m trying to lose some weight. I’ll still join the burger tour for new stops, if I can make it, but I can’t go for places I’ve been to already right now. Maybe after I get back down to my playing weight.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
Wow, in September? Isn't that camp like two months away?
"I'm going to become rich and famous after I invent a device that allows you to stab people in the face over the internet"
5 months away
and it’s really training, just running and trying to lose some weight. I weigh 10 pounds more than I’ve ever weighed in my life. I felt like it was time to remedy that.
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
er, it's NOT really training
She said, "You don't even buy me presents." Yeah I did. I bought you a box of chicken but I ate it on the way home.
Would have been good, since we didn't go to TTC last night

Last second audible since there was 45 minute wait at TTC. Eyewitness thread to come, I’m sure.

If any golf course in the area makes a better burger than you
You probably don’t have the best burger in Cincinnati. Just sayin’.

You guys are snobs
And the burgers weren’t the best that night, I’ll admit.

45 minute waits prevented me from getting $2 hot dogs and $2 beers
Still a little peeved about that.

Is that a euphimism?

Can I spell anything right today?
"I'm going to become rich and famous after I invent a device that allows you to stab people in the face over the internet"
I'm just gonna do a wrap up recap of the last couple when I get back
If I can get it written today before I leave I’ll do it.
"I'm going to become rich and famous after I invent a device that allows you to stab people in the face over the internet"
I went ahead and wrote it, now I'm running late. Are you happy? :)
"I'm going to become rich and famous after I invent a device that allows you to stab people in the face over the internet"
My mommy says she wouldn't know what to do without me, so there!

Maybe I'll listen to the Bats game tonight...anyone got a link?

You know, I hadn't fully processed that.
