Things that are better than off-days (2025)

Seriously? Day two? I guess they really need a break to get re-charged.

Getting a bill for dental work you thought your insurance had covered after you made your copay the day you were at the office

Finding out your cracked tooth not only needs a crown, but the crack is close enough to the nerve to require a root canal.

Got a feeling trips to the dentist will pop up a bit in this thread.

Is it safe?

Back to the dentist today for the root canal prep. I was in the ER early yesterday morning because a coughing fit tore the intercostal muscles and it feels like being stabbed every time I cough, so I'm not looking forward to the dentist's chair.

yikes. Good luck.

[Dave in Fairfax]

Thanks. Got lucky. The root was safe, so no need for a root canal, just a crown.

worst pain i ever experienced was when the dentist put the permanent crown on a tooth that had been shaved down (but no root canal). I demand novocaine now.

Having your sinus cavity lifted to accept an implant ain't no picnic either...

Ouch.  Sounds almost as painful as listening to Franny tell us that Crews is striking out the right way.

Sounds like we have experienced the same issue. Spent 3 hours last Thursday in the dental chair for a cracked tooth that required a root canal, post and a temp crown. I don’t know what was worse if the office had access to the Pirates/ Nats game on MASN or the procedure. About half way thru the procedure I asked the dentist to stop work when he hit $200.00.

And these are our future players? This is a sad indictment of the state of affairs of this organization.

Most of the guys are organizational depth.  Their record is irrelevant.  House and Hassell are the main guys to watch.

Other than House, I don't think there's a top 15 organizational prospect at Rochester. Using Fangraphs list, AA has Wallace, Lile, and Susana, Wilmington has King, Lomavita, Green, and Clemmey.

Pretty hard to convince fans to back away from the ledge when that's the best they have to offer...

obvious answer is the bullpen.
