someone (who is less at work than me (no personal email)) access should send an email to Al so he can ban… not sure that he sees the flags unless he goes out of his way to look.

As I have said, it’s time to move on. I accept having Rodgers at quarterback, and Favre retired!!!

Any takers that he K’s in the bottom?

Can Marmol speak English?

I noticed that Ramirez and Soto came up to the mound when Piniella came out of the dugout. It never really looked like Marmol was talking to Piniella.

I know he’s been quoted in English, but I’ve never heard him talk

Good question, but...

Piniella speaks Spanish don’t he? Wouldn’t need translators.
