Lots of empty seats yesterday, team looked ok playing a bad team.  They might get to 81-81 or a few over that but thats about it.  It beats loosing 100 though.

True.  I think the most likely result is them winning somewhere in the 80's , maybe 82 to 87, either just on the outside of the playoffs looking in or barely sneaking into the postseason. 

1. My first game was in 1971 against the Pirates at Riverfront... a 6-0 shutout win. Ross Grimsley got the complete game shutout.

2.  My favorite player---don't know if I really have a favorite--- I really like all the BRM guys. Used to go up to the gravel road behind my house as a kid and bat rocks, going through the entire BRM lineup and simulating their batting style. I liked Rose for how hard he played the game. He even ran to first base after a walk. I tried to play like him.

3. Today's roster--- I really like Spencer Steer. Love his approach at the plate and how goes about doing his business. He's a pro. Plus, he can rake!!!
