Several were injured, and others have been getting needed development time in Triple-A. That's finally starting to change. With his "Super Two" status no longer a concern, pitching prospect Cody Reed was called up Saturday. Infielder Jose Peraza is back in the big leagues for the second time. Starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani has put an oblique injury behind him. Pitchers Michael Lorenzen and Raisel Iglesias could be ready in the near future. "It's exciting because this is what we've all talked about," Price said. "We've anticipated it would happen a little bit sooner. We didn't anticipate the health issues, and didn't think we'd come out of Spring Training with all the issues and injuries. I did anticipate we'd get to the point where these young guys would impact our ballclub, and begin to learn how to play at this level and find their way to success." More help could be coming. Pitcher Robert Stephenson, who already made two spot starts in the big leagues, is performing well at Triple-A Louisville with a 3.29 ERA in 11 starts.

In ritiro a Coverciano dal 24 maggio, per l’Italia le tre sfide amichevoli rappresentano un ponte verso la nuova stagione, che inizierà a settembre nel segno della Nations League e proseguirà poi da marzo con le Qualificazioni per l’Europeo 2020 che si aprirà proprio in Italia, a Roma, sede della gara inaugurale, di tre partite del girone e di un Quarto di finale.

  • Horizons, If Memory This Issue, Unless the Calend Ar to the Metric System
    Horizons, if memory serves, is the name of this FAPAzine. This is the November, 1976, issue, unless they’ve converted the calend­ ar to the metric system. It is volume 38, number 1, FAPA number 142, and whole number 148. Pressing my luck, I’ll also venture a guess that it’s mostly the work of Harry Warner, Jr., 423 Summit Avenue, Hagerstown, Maryland, 21740, U.S.A. Mimeography is by the Coulsons. ‘ : In the Beginning The Fantasy Amateur: Maybe the change in the secretary-treasurer- ship should also involve a change in the custom of requiring wait listers to acknowledge the FA. It seems unfair to require waiting listers to do something twice as often as members, and the large proportion of people who drop from FAPA after only six or eighteen months’ membership indicates that this custom doesn’t guarantee lasting interest in membership. I’m afraid we may have lost some potentially valuable members because they were dropped from the waiting list for lack of response. Daglocke: I’ve been troubled with that inability to think of a word I need since an operation five years ago. Maybe I got too much anesthetic or maybe some mem­ ory cells dropped dead of fright. ’’ I wonder if deja vu sensa­ tions could come from having dreamed a similar experience. That vague sense of familiarity is just about as vague as the memories that d re Am .q leave in the conscious mind. Damballa: Some fans al­ ready have acquired stencil scanning equipment. Victoria Vayne and Joanne Burger are two who come immediately to mind.

Before the limited series Crisis on Infinite Earthsthe two iconic characters were depicted as the best of friends. After the first 13 issues, most of the story arcs were independent and self-contained from the ongoing or Superman / Batman: Vengeance storylines in the other Batman and Superman comic titles. Twenty-six writers and artists who knew Sam worked on the issue, donating their fees and royalties for the issue to the Sam Loeb College Scholarship Fund. LoebSuperman / Batman: Vengeance wrote Superman for two years before the launch of the title, wrote the book for the first two years of its publication. Unlike later writers, Loeb's work on the book lasted for several storylines, which were interconnected. President Lex Luthor declares Superman and Batman enemies of the state, claiming that a Kryptonite asteroid headed for Earth is connected to an evil Superman / Batman: Vengeance by Superman. Superman almost kills Lex, with Batman standing aside. Superman changes his mind at the last moment. The new Superman / Batman: VengeanceHiro Okamura, assists with the asteroid's destruction. Captain Atom is seemingly killed. Luthor is defeated and appears to die in the battle, although he is shown to survive. In the course of the fight, Luthor is irrevocably exposed to the world as Superman / Batman: Vengeance villain for the first time in Post- Crisis continuity.

  • Heroes and Rallies Baseball
    Heroes and Rallies Baseball Setup Pick two teams to go head to head, and fill out your lineups on the scoresheet. Each team receives 8 skill assignments to give to individual players. All of the skill assignments listed below must be used within your starting lineup for a total of 8. A player may possess two assignments if you wish. Rate your lineup by placing the appropriate notation beside a player’s name on the scoresheet. 1) star hitter (H) 2) star slugger (S) 3) star runner (R) 4) star fielder (F) 5) poor hitter (H-) 6) weak hitter (S-) 7) slow runner (R-) 8) poor fielder (F-) Once a player has a skill assignment, he cannot transfer it to another player. There is one additional skill assignment available for an ace pitcher (X). You may, however, choose not to start one. Make any pitcher a poor hitter as well (H-), so there will be two poor hitters if a pitcher is in the lineup. Game Play Roll the dice for each player who comes up to bat, reading the colored die first and the white die second. If a result occurs on the Batting chart which displays an image of a ballplayer, the inning is considered finished with no further scoring. Draw an X in the box on the scoresheet representing the current hitter’s at-bat. When his team next comes up to bat, the next player in the lineup will hit. If the color of a chart result corresponds to the color of the skill assignment of the player who is currently up to bat, the result changes to the one shown on the bottom of the Batting chart.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • Warner Wolf Suing Don Imus for Age Discrimination
    Warner Wolf suing Don Imus for age discrimination nypost.com/2018/02/15/warner-wolf-suing-don-imus-for-age-discrimination/ By Andrew Marchand For a retirement present, one New York broadcast legend has filed a lawsuit against another. Warner Wolf is taking Don Imus and three others to the New York State Supreme Court, alleging Wolf was let go from WABC’s “Imus in the Morning” show at the end of 2016 because of age discrimination and is owed severance, as well as damages for “severe mental anguish, emotional distress, humiliation,” among other maladies. Imus is scheduled to retire from his show at the end of March. He regularly makes fun of everything and everybody. In the suit, Imus is the first one named as a defendant, along with WABC GM Chad Lopez, Cumulus Sr. VP Mike McVay and WABC program director Craig Schwalb. The claim was filed late Thursday morning, and a copy was obtained by The Post. Wolf’s lawyer, Douglas H. Wigdor writes, “Imus routinely made inappropriate comments about the Plaintiff’s age, including stating that it was ‘time to put [Mr. Wolf] out to pasture’ and ‘shoot him with an elephant dart gun.’” In 2016, the suit says that Imus replaced Wolf, then 78, because of his age and hired Sid Rosenberg, who was 30 years younger. Wolf claims that Cumulus refused to honor severance for 26 weeks of pay, amounting to $97,500. There seems to be a disagreement between the two parties if a deal had been officially consummated. Both Imus and Wolf have had legendary broadcast careers.
