Is this actually a real stipulation or is onion sports reporting this?

When she first got it, she couldn't put any of the shapes into the ball. She'd try to push the oval shape through the square hole or the triangular shape through the star-shaped hole, etc. It was sometimes funny to watch and other times frustrating because I wanted her to figure it out. I expect I'll feel something similar this year watching Charlie try to use our collection of corner OFers. The positive sign is that my daughter has figured it out...... I'm wondering if Charlie can learn new tricks.

Well that's completely obnoxious

Needs more commas and run on sentences and obscure references but otherwise not a bad attempt at a Baumanism.

Look, if the Phils had their 2009 starting OF, bringing in Delmon Young on a $750K contract as a backup OF and PH wouldn't be a bad move. But Rube seems to have a fetish for the least patient hitters in baseball. Time after time he goes after what PtK just called "known out makers." The result, as we've seen, is not only subpar production, but short innings, allowing opposing starters to go deeper into the game so we don't get into the opposition's middle relievers.

Not every guy in the lineup is going to be a patient OBP machine. But if you consistently fill your lineup with known out makers (I love that phrase), you're going to end up with a team that makes a ton of outs.
