"Our trainer (Jeff Desjardins) thought he was a little dehydrated," Sarbaugh said Wednesday morning. "Carlos might have been a little worried about it because he thought it could be serious, but hopefully, right now it seems like it's not."
This following a start by Carrasco "[t]hat was the best he's thrown really all year," according to Ross Apkins.

Just recently saw a rerun of the West Wing episode where Josh Malina’s character (“Will Bailey”) is having his first full day in the White House, and not one person gets his name right all day. Josh calls him Bill Bailey, twice — not such a big deal. C.J. pretends not to know who he is, even though she just planted a goat in his office. His own sister calls him Willy. Josh then switches to Bill Daley. This culminates with an off-the-cuff encounter with the President, who without missing a beat calls him “Bill Haley.” It’s a great comic moment, totally underplayed.

I love that show. Well, at least until Sorkin left and the writing dropped off considerably. It’s the little stuff like that which went missing in the later seasons.
I just want to believe.
I know the writing dropped off after Sorkin left, but I still cared about the characters enough to follow it. Although, even though I love Sorkin and West Wing, I’m still a little mad he gave up on SportsNight.

Weirdly, I could never get into SportsNight at all and in fact found it pretentious and annoying. The West Wing was very similar in style and yet I found it to be riveting and excellent. The key, I think, is that Sorkin writes his characters as very self-important and ponderous, and on The West Wing, their sense of importance and ponderousness actually made sense.
How about that doomed show about the SNL-type show? Oof, was that overblown.
