Mrs. Butthead was asking about Pre a week or so ago. One of two Desipiot clients we had. I said he disappeared and maybe he died or something.

Saw her and Frank the Tank on Milwaukee the other day while walking to dinner.  Had a pleasant convo about the raccoon walking along the curb mere feet away at 5:30pm in broad daylight.  What at time to live in the suburbs!

She mentioned that. I think that's what prompted her to ask about the other client from Desipio.

And to renew the restraining order.

You can try to serve a restraining order on a raccoon, but I doubt that he will pay any attention to it.  Raccoons are a lot like cats in that way.

In the meaningless stats department, has anyone else noticed that the Cubs have lost 9 of their last 10 Saturday games?

Noodling on opposing starters for the NLDS. The only way to get two starts for Thor/Bumgarner is for them to pitch at least once on short rest. I'll take the Mets please.

Mets
Colon
Syndergaard (short rest)
Lugo/Gsellman
Colon (short rest)
Syndergaard

Giants
Cueto
Bumgarner (short rest)
Snork
Cueto (short rest)
Bumgarner

I get that everyone likes the Cubs facing the Mets' remnants of a rotation, but the Giants' bullpen is fucking atrocious. I mean, you look at their roster for tonight's game and actually find yourself wondering of Casilla over Nathan was a good call.

The thing is you're guaranteed a crack at the Mets starters, with MadBum/Cueto/Snork all among the league leaders in IP you may not even get much of a chance at SF's bullpen. I'd rather deal with the Mets starters.

The Giants are also significantly better defensively.

I think the current Giants roster is that of an 87 win team. They took a really bizarre route of getting there with the red hot first half and the garbage second half, but on paper they are still a good if flawed team. Their slump could randomly end and they could get as hot as they were before the break.

The current Mets roster is not a playoff team. Most of the contributors that got them there are hurt and they relied on some random hot streaks from guys like James Loney, who batted over .300 for like a month and then finished with the expected replacement level numbers anyway. If they played 162 games with just the 25 guys they have active today they'd probably win like 75 games. I want that team.
