I know I'm struggling. I have excellent teams in a couple of leagues, but my closers suck or are hurt. Last Sunday, I spent a fortune on Will Vest in Detroit as it looked like he had the job. Now, maybe he doesn't.a.What's your advice for me and others who are struggling?b.Should managers go for the hot potential closer like Vest or instead spend less on setup guys?2.Potential young breakout pitchers. Who are you buying? We will talk about each and then I'll have you order them in how you like them for the rest of the season and then their careers?a.Brandon Pfaadt (AZ, age=26, rank=18) – 6 GS, 5 wins, 2.78 ERA, 1.12 WHIP, 29Ks/4BB in 35.2 IPb.Jesus Luzardo (PHI, 27, 15) – 6 GS, 3 wins, 1.73 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, 41K/10BB in 36.1 IPc.McKenzie Gore (Was, 26, 26) – 7 GS, 2 wins, 3.51 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, 59K/9BB in 41 IPd.Max Meyer (Mia, 26, 37) – 6 GS, 2 wins, 3.18 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, 47K/11BB in 34 IPe.Casey Mize (Det, 28, 42) – 5 GS, 4 wins, 2.12 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, 23K/7BB in 29.2 IP3.Potential young breakout pitchers.

Em 1987, D. António Monteiro chegou à diocese de Viseu, primeiro como bispo coadjutor, depois, no ano seguinte, assumindo a titularidade. O país tinha acabado de entrar na CEE. Começava a execução, isto é, o homicídio dos fundos comunitários, derretidos em bêémes turboconduzidos por cavaquistas de formação profissional da treta em formação profissional da treta, fundos comunitários aplicados em jipes com que jovens agricultores sexagenários cartografavam vinhas e pomares a arrancar. Em 1987, cumprindo a tradição de todos os primeiros mandatos, o presidente-rei Mário Soares apaparicava o então chefe-do-governo Aníbal Cavaco Silva, tanto como agora o presidente-selfie Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa apaparica António Costa.Em 1987, o país estava pacificado depois dos ardores do PREC. Alguns poucos nostálgicos da revolução ainda encharcavam o fígado enquanto punham o "FMI", de José Mário Branco, a dar 33 voltinhas por minuto no gira-discos, mas o povão não tinha dessas nostalgias. Enquanto dava maiorias a Cavaco, organizava excursões para ir ao Continente de Matosinhos, o primeiro do país, onde gastava em média dez contos de reis por compra.Em 1987, longe, muito longe de Matosinhos, Viseu ia puxando pelos Renaults 5 e os Fiats 127 nas subidas dos novos troços do IP5 que iam sendo inaugurados naqueles tempos de optimismo cavacal. Viseu era, e foi-o durante muitos anos, o cavaquistão. Conservador, beato. Públicas virtudes, vícios privados. A verdade é que, naquela altura, o recém-chegado D. António criou um corrupio nas paróquias de Viseu. O bispo, numa entrevista a um jornal nacional que não consigo achar (terá sido ao Público? ao Expresso?), fez a seguinte radiografia do seu clero: «na minha diocese, 80% dos padres são da Opus Dei e os restantes têm 80 anos» (cito de memória). Lembrei-me daquela indiscreta descrição de D. António Monteiro ao saber que alguns párocos viseenses ficaram infectados com Covid-19 depois de terem estado num retiro da Opus Dei. A eles, agora a caminho dos 80, desejo pronta e rápida recuperação.
Show 14 hits the digiwaves a tad earlier this week as Jim is on hols.This week sees Midnight Video delving into the animated and live action wonders of the Eastern Bloc with the Terry Gilliam-inspiring Baron Prasil, then we catch the next cannonball west into the forests of France to follow the exploits of two urban fish out of water with IP5 before dipping into the Mediterranean in search of the most infamous Hollywood couple ever to grace the silver screen in Boom!
