I’d say he’s definitely better than Orlando Cabrera.

It has been awhile, but if I remember correctly, O-Cab didn't make as many flashy plays, but was so damn solid. But it has been awhile.

Cabrera was definitely solid. One of the best we have had up to that point.

This team scored just 11 runs in 3 games against the 2nd worst pitching staff in baseball.

So naturally, they'll score 11 runs in one game against Tampa.

I'm just quoting this again because I'm a Wizard and I command respect.

I'll throw you a "like." That's a form of respect, Gandawg.

The Baltimore series seems like a long time ago now. That comeback win yesterday was huge as we have not lost a series since Baltimore.

You may not be able to watch as many games as the rest of us AJ, trust me when I tell you this guy is amazing with the glove, range and his arm. I'd take him over Andrelton Simmons defensively any day. 

You’d be high to take him defensively over Simmons. Sorry.

Who is better looking, Paul Rudd or Mark Ruffalo?

Yes one of those and considering I have no idea what you look like, I think we're okay. I also only stick to ones in Orange County.

I do them in the OC all the time! Next time you're going to one, shoot me a message on here and I'll let you know if I'm working it and I'll say hi. 

[T.G.]

Andrelton Simmons was a freakin’ platinum glove winner. Velazquez is terrific, but Simmons was better. 

Sorry, @Chuckster70

If this thread is any indication, Velazquez.

[Docwaukee]

Velazquez kinda reminds me of Simmons a bit but Andrelton had this knack for being where the ball was hit every time.  I remember so often when the ball was hit thinking aw crap, that's a single.  But them Simmons would be there fielding it without even having to reach for it.  He was by far the best defender I've ever seen.  Velzaquez is good, but he ain't Simmons.  And even with the ugliest swing ever, Simmons somehow managed to hit way better.

Both are magical

I'm a Velazquez fan, too, but the recency bias is hilarious.

And do the announcers realize that 'captain Jack' was a heroin dealer?

My Penguins are winning 6-2 after 2 periods. Bodes well for the Angels.
