Hitting the ball hard and hitting line drives is important.

Okay, so at least you are now backing off your nonsense that,
"There is nothing in the full quote that implies I want it done
this very instant in the partial quote you pulled," and the
implication I was taking your quote out of context or that
something in the rest of your post made clear you did not mean
what you were saying in the language I quoted. At least that is
some progress.

There is no IMPLICATION in that post that he wants anything done
IMMEDIATELY. Just because you INFERRED something that no one
that has read his previous posts would have inferred, that does
not change the meaning of the post.

And there was also nothing in my post which said anything about
"immediately." He used the present tense in referring to
wanting something done in the replacement of Castro when he
wrote that a lot of people, himself included "want Castro gone
or benched for Baez." If he had only said "want Castro gone,"
the implication would be that it is a present desire for
something to happen in the present, though it would leave open
the interpretation that he was expressing a desire for an
off-season move to be made, but when he followed that with "or
benched," he eliminated any reasonable interpretation of it
applying to anything other than the present, whether you want to
consider that "immediate" or not (a bit like Bill Clinton
quibbling over what the meaning of the word "is" is) does not
alter the fact that it is WRITTEN in a manner which addresses
the present, the here and now, and not some time in the
indefinite future. Now, as I mentioned, I wrote nothing about
"immediately," but I did accurately represent what what written
without anything close to distorting it or inferring anything
from it beyond the plain meaning of the words.
Now, since you believe that I did infer something which was not
implied, can you take the words, "want Castro gone or benched
for Baez," in the context in which they were used (it was not a
discussion about playoff lineups or what anyone thought should
be done after September call-ups), and offer a rational
interpretation where those words would not have been addressing
the present?

Stinnett with a 6K-1BB no-hitter through 5.
Through 4, Johnson has allowed his usual 1 run.
Through 3, Blackburn with a no-hitter. 1K and 9 grounders (one
was errored.)
Almora benefits when hannemann gets on in front of him. They
always have him bunt then, and he got another bunt single
tonight. Through 4 innings, he's got another bunt single,
another walk, and a double.
Through 4 innings, Tennessee has gotten 16 base runners (11 hits
and 5 walks.) Each of the interesting prospects with at least
two times on base.

With the VSL coming to an end this weekend I can now admit that
I mostly checked the VSL box scores to see if Francisco Garay
could reach 100 strike outs before reaching 200 at bats. While
he will miss this dubious distinction (assuming he avoids a
golden sombrero tomorrow) he did lead the team in errors and is
batting ~0.130. Must have a lot of tools!

A guy from BP saw Blackburn's previous start. Had him topping
out at 92 and throwing a bunch of average secondaries. He rated
him a 45 and gave him a back end starter upside.
