        1. Not at all what I was expecting with that link. I figured it was the AP style guide showing "Press" capitalized or something.

          In this case, I'm sure "Press" wouldn't be capitalized either. A picture of LeBron throwing down a tomahawk wouldn't be called "American Dunk"

  1. Joe Mauer in April: .225/.271/.275/.546
    Joe Mauer in August: .333/.411/.429/.840
    Joe Mauer last 10 games: .439/.465/.561/1.026

    1. If the season were end today, Mauer's .290/.377/.396/.773 batting slash line would be his highest since the 2013 season.

    Please check the spreadsheet to make sure I haven't made any errors in transcribing your selections. There's usually one or two (usually one or two)

  3. Thing I did not remember:

    In 2008, Doug Mientkiewicz played for the Pirates, and spent a lot of time in right field and third base (and he was bad at third base).

  4. Cardinals with blue pixie vests? I guess they are jerseys with red sleeves. Pirates are black or navy with yellow sleeves.

    Not like.

      1. This will also be the first time ever for the Yankmes wearing names on the back of their unis. Another Yankme tradition bites the dust! I blame Cap'n Jetes' abdication.

          1. I'm hoping it creates an AL pennant drought curse lasting the combined service time of all Yankmes, true and untrue, who came before this great national travesty.

    1. Todd McShay did have him as a first round draft pick, so signing him as a FA is a steal!
