Q! They have their hands in everything! And I think this makes the Yankees the deep state! I knew it!!!

Was saving that for 17...

Went 6 for our last 14, so now it is 27 with 70 outcomes left. % improved slightly from needing 39.3% of outcomes to go our way to needing 38.6% of outcomes to go our way.

If we go 6 for 14 the rest of the way, in essence the magic number would be 3 with a week to play.

I like this addition. So now it is 26 with 69 (nice!) remaining outcomes. The "Tim4Wins Percentage Needed" is 37.7%.

Yeah it gives good context I think. And I like seeing the % fall!

Good chance (a bit less than 50-50?) that this year's four AL semi-finalists are the same as the four NBA semi-finalists: Boston, Cleveland, Houston, Oakland.

I think I'm going to be stuck here the rest of the day.

Went 1 for our last 8 (Sox 0-3 and MFY 4-1 since last Friday). 25 needed in 61 chances, 41.0%. Was at 37.7% heading into the weekend. Let's turn this boat around and get it to 20 by the end of the month.

Who's the most loathed #25 on this site, Bobby V, Giambi, or Teixeira?

Bobby the fifth and it isn’t close. Giambi and Tex were destructive from the other side of the lines. BobbyV was destructive from inside our own house.

 

[Sandy Leon Trotsky]

And between Tex and Giambi I say Tex by 25. Loathed that shitbag

Tims4wins number updated: 24/59 (40.7%)

Slight drop in pct number. Hopefully we can get that near 35% sometime this weekend.

Fitting for an ugly "clutch" win after lots of missed "shots" ...

Well done.

Someone should invent a brunch menu item called "Eggs Bobby V".
It would probably be just a poorly executed take on Eggs Benedict, and would leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Would need to be served in a wrap for maximum effect.

Yeah; this guy!

Did you ever hear what Joe DiMaggio said about that catch? He said Willie made it look hard and that he, Joe, in his day, would have been back there waiting for the ball. What an A-hole.

1. You must introduce me as "Greatest living player"
2. Nobody sits until I sit
3. I get everything comped.
4. I will not tip.
5. I will leave early when you will again acknowledge me as Greatest living player"

Was he ever. I heard all sorts of tales about Joe’s cheapness and tackiness from Dom. They used to call him Old Fish Hooks for the way he’d reach into his pocket for his wallet.

You knew Dom? Now there was a class gentleman from everything I’ve heard.
