Whitlock. Discussion about The Wire. Told him season two wasn't as good as the others.

Weigh your ingredients. If you're going to go through the trouble of chopping your own chocolate to avoid emulsifiers, you should also invest in a digital food scale.

I had one the other day. The sauce is fucking terrible. The beefy 5 layer is so much better and basically the same thing, with nacho cheese sauce instead of cheddar in the outer layer and none of that horrible chipotle toe jam sauce.

San Diego is small market because we're constricted geographically. San Diego may have a relatively high population but we don't get to count any of the surrounding counties. To the south is Mexico, nothing but mountains and desert to the east for 350 miles, and Orange County/LA to the north. Compare that to a city…

Sure, one guy could probably be an effective reliever. Great. There are a handful of pitchers that are decent hitters, too. Just some that absolutely suck at it because it isn't there job to hit, just like it isn't David Ortiz's job to field or Carl Crawford's job to pitch.

So what? We're talking about specialists, right? We should teach relief pitchers to play second. Or second basemen to pitch. I don't see why that's any less reasonable than expecting pitchers to be able to hit at a big league level.

Why don't we make shortstops take a turn pitching? Why carry a bullpen, what a waste of roster space, teach fourth outfielders to pitch. Plenty of position players were great pitchers in high school, no reason they can't learn to pitch at a high level again.

That's Greinke's line for 2014...a whopping 19 PA. He's 228/278/339 over his entire career. Good luck finding "a lot" of position players who put up worse numbers.

You're being ridiculous. Liriano is paid to pitch, not hit.

Corked bats do not help you hit more home runs.

I think Bo forgets that he wasn't all that great at baseball. Career .250/.309/.474.

That ad was filmed at Black's Beach in San Diego. A nude beach populated mostly by old dudes in hairy speedos. Also, world class waves in the winter.

If I'm understanding your point correctly, I don't think I agree.

That's an interesting question. I don't think I would actually kick anyone out. Now, in a parallel universe, where no one is in the Hall yet and we are deciding today how many eligible players get in, I'd be comfortable going with the best 60 or so starting pitchers of all time. I don't think Morris comes close to the…

Relative other pitchers playing during his career, Morris was good. But the other pitchers playing during his career generally weren't very good, so that doesn't help Morris' case.

And if EVERYONE was on steroids (again, that point is debatable) then the hitters were too. Seems like a wash to me.

There is no explicit criteria for qualification regarding the quality of the players in the same time period. Just because Morris was among the best pitchers (and that point really is debatable) that pitched at the same time as him, doesn't mean he had a Hall of Fame quality career. Compared to other Hall of Fame…

Clemens? I was thinking more along the lines of "pitchers who primarily pitched in the 1980's."

Ten years ago, Sheehan took a very close look at Morris' performances and the idea that he pitched to the score.

Oh, there certainly is. But I didn't think it would matter to someone who seems to think one game makes a Hall of Fame career.
