It might seem easy to feel sympathetic for the plight of the beaver until you remember what it does to wood.
Well I'll be dam*ed! Browsing at the updates, I never remembered posting in this thread. As I checked back, the Giants game I attended (but didn't really want to go) was Bailey's no-hitter on July 2nd!

From the #reds ... named Joe Mather assistant hitting coach and Geoff Head senior director of health and performance.
Director of Health and Performance. DW started that soon after taking over as GM.

It’s always been Pedro Borbon.
"Geoff Head"

I'll admit it, this thread confuses me.
Too much Mather Blather?
Cotton Mather:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotton_Mather
Cotton Mather /ˈmæðər/ FRS (February 12, 1663 – February 13, 1728; A.B. 1678, Harvard College; A.M. 1681, honorary doctorate 1710, University of Glasgow) was a New England Puritan minister, prolific author, and pamphleteer. He left a scientific legacy due to his hybridization experiments and his promotion of inoculation for disease prevention, though he is most frequently remembered today for his involvement in the Salem witch trials.

Holy Christ, that was funny.

Yeah, BUT...when I was a kid I looked a LOT like Jerry Mathers and would often hear other kids, even in stores say things like, "Hey LOOK! It's Leave It To Beaver!" The BRM was born in my youth so there is that..As adults there is no resemblance whatsoever..
Seeing his name in another thread reminded me of Mather rejoining the organization last season. Reds, of course, returned to the playoffs for the first time since the year they had Mather on the squad for part of the season.. Clearly the Mather Effect was reversed.
Mather matters.
