    Castro might be MVP tonight so far. Pitch framing on 100 right now.

    Yeah, I missed it... I always thought he said "managers decision".

    What was his talking with media style referred to as again? "Jimy-waukee?".

    Great job by Sipp. His command was on and off, but he found a way to get out unscathed.

    He said both. Very good teacher and hard worker but really alienated the media and players that he felt didn't put forth the type of effort he expected. Not a bad short term manager but he threw around the term "idiot" too often when referring to his own players.

    Lol, thought about the awkward shirtless hug Rasmus gave Blum at postgame celebration. Geeesh, another run would be nice

    Star Wars and GI Joe? My father played college baseball but didn't ever discuss the sport until I was 6.

    I liked the 1-M... learned more about the game by watching him.

    This was also right at the time analytics was becoming main-stream, but you could see he was using statistical evidence for every single one of his bullpen decisions.
