Here we go [again]

Anal-idiotics and ergo-comics.

Too many pen moves.

Never changes here.

Let me know when you guys are ready for me to take this thing over, okay? I am the guy who suggested J. McCann and T. Walker at the start of this past off season.

So, Start Dom.

Lose the laptop or slip Luey a "Mickey" or something.

Go on gut instinct and decision making experience instead. Better probability, less thought.

"The Hand" has spoken.

I could live with Dom not starting I guess (didn't like it, though), but he should have been inserted after Moore was pulled.

And this yank the pitcher after 77 pitches stuff? STOP IT!

Look, I know deGrom did not throw a lot of innings last year, but I don't see that as a negative. IF YOU WANTED TO KEEP HIM IN TO SAY 90-95 PITCHES THIS FIRST START, FINE. After that boost him above 100.

Give him an early night when you build a big lead for him, which I hope may someday actually occur for Jake. They are the stingiest offense when he pitches.
