Baseball-Reference.com preview [opens in new window]

15 minutes to game time and there's not a gameday thread yet! Oh no, Jim must've been kidnapped!

Hang tight while I get a preview up for today.

[Sorry, went to breakfast and just got back; had to wait longer than we thought... Please continue...]

There. A slightly-tidier Gameday Thread. Thanks to 'charmer for getting one up in the meantime. We had a very relaxed morning: watched some Primeval, a little Penn and Teller, then headed out for breakfast, and didn't realize what time it was till we got back to the car! Sorry for the inconvenience...

DD goes today, and sure we'll be monitoring his back, to see how it feels, with a quick hook if necessary. Nolasco is another one in the Marlins' roster of good young pitchers, and we'll have to see how we do against him. Dodgers are playing later tonight: I'm not expecting to pick up another game today, but let's go one step at a time.

I went to Mass with my family.

My brother is leaving for college on Weds, so I’m spending today and this week with the fam.

Today’s lineup:

S. Drew ss .284
C. Young cf .241
C. Jackson lf .301
A. Dunn rf .237
T. Clark 1b .248
M. Reynolds 3b .244
C. Snyder c .251
A. Ojeda 2b .269
D. Davis p .100

TC gets the nod at 1b and Snydes is back in the lineup. We have 4 LHBs against the righty. I thought that I read that DD wasn’t going to be able to go today?

Florida has not given any indication either way as to if it wants Gonzalez, who is making $2 million this season, to play for the club in 2009. Whenever Gonzalez decides to retire, he has indicated he would be open to signing a one-day contract to hang it up with one special team. If that scenario arises down the line, Arizona projects to be the team.

Well, when I was but a wee tot...

My father got me into sports at an early age, but for some reason I was independent enough to not align myself with the hometeam (See also: My love for the Packers). When the D-Teams entered the league my dad suggested I pick one of them. Apparently I was quite prophetic since I picked the Diamondbacks. Because of this, I’ve been privaleged to see my team win a title. Had I gone the other way, I would JUST NOW finally be having a good season, haha.

by hotclaws on Aug 24, 2008 5:20 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Well

the acting in the newer Ocean’s 11 is a lot better, although the plot is pretty much the same. The idea is slightly less inconceivable in the newer version, IMO.

The old version of 3:10 to Yuma WAS a good film, (I blame Elmore Leonard) but there are a lot more issues that are directly or indirectly addressed in the newer film (e.g., racism, etc). There are more morally ambiguous situations in the new flick, and the very end is changed fairly significantly.

Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers: Filling the dubious shoes left open by Barry Bonds and the Giants.

by DbacksSkins on Aug 24, 2008 5:26 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Additionally,

the remake of 3:10 focuses a lot more on the journey TO Contention, which is something that the older version pretty much skipped entirely, and the circumstance under which Ben Wade needs to be protected from a vengeful relative of one of his victims is significantly different. Wade is overall MUCH more hardcore in the newer version, though. There are more important characters in the new version, and much of the focus of the movie is on Charlie, Wade’s right hand man, and the rest of Wade’s gang.

Typically, I’m not much of a Western fan, but I think 3:10 to Yuma might have been the best film I saw last year.
