1. DJ LeMahieu (R) 2B 2. Giancarlo Stanton (R) DH 3. Aaron Hicks (S) CF 4. Gleyber Torres (R) SS 5. Gary Sanchez (R) C 6. Jay Bruce (L) 1B 7. Clint Frazier (R) RF 8. Gio Urshela (R) 3B 9. Mike Tauchman (L) LF
Still no Judge. Tauchman gets the start in left. Frazier to right. BaBoone stubbornly keeps Cashman’s Pile in the three hole. Stanton takes the two hole, and Torres bats cleanup.

Battle at the lame old Trop Dump! Does Kevin Cash have his stable ready? Do wish we had Judge and Voit, but no excuses, let's take this series!

Where's raysfan aka yankee54 aka tmarino?
If you don't know the story there was a poster who showed up talking trash pretending to be a rays fan. Then I saw his IP address traced to Connecticut where we know marino was from AND the email he signed up had 1954 in it. This plus his posting style meant it had to be our old friend. I sent him an email saying I was on to him and he ran as fast as he could and disappeared.

That's a weak 8 and 9 slot.
My wife, who like me never gets sick, was in a bad way for about four days after each of her Covid shots. Hopefully Gio bounces back faster.

The most I’d heard of was a day of flu-like symptoms following the second shot. Which one of the vaccines was administered?

Hi Rizz -- it was the Pfizer shot. Gio got his Wednesday, so he's already on his third day.

Hope this ump gives Kluber the same strike zone as Hill. That said, I've always liked Hill as a pitcher who has been able to adapt his game as he got older.

John Flaherty...my least favorite booth guy. Mine too. Very bland. My Extra Innings package is only allowing me the Tampa Bay feed, with ex-Yank broadcaster Dwayne Staats.
