Oh my. I made my previous comment without having actually watched that. I couldn't stand more than 30 seconds and just skipped through to later parts to see if it might get any more tolerable and nope, it got worse. How much are they paying Chase to let them put this disaster on a screen?
I feel bad for saying bad things about the movie because people clearly put a lot of time, effort and probably a little money into the movie but it is just terrible.
Good people will be compelled to lie to those involved in the production of this ... thing. My coworker won’t ask me what I thought because he knows I’ll tell him the truth.
Hey Ben....thanks for keeping on...what is the story with Patrick Wisdom?...young and athletic. Is it strike out to hit ratio?

Yeah, it's interesting. In previous decades, we'd all be salivating about a Triple-A player who hit THIRTY-ONE home runs last season. But once we look past the neon flashing 31, you have to look at his other at-bats, and it's tough -- 149 strikeouts last year, 39 walks. A OPS of .817. Is that what you want out of a corner infield position? (Yes Carp was only .835 last year, but don't forget how he's a different because 1. a lot of those at-bats weren't at leadoff, where he shines, and he also walks sooooo much, which is enticing). So the Cards left "Patty Smarts" available for Rule 5, but no one took him, so they'll see if this Randal-like hitter changes some things up in the spring.

i had the same question. is that some reference to a character in literature, film or something else? otherwise he thought he was so funny to change patrick wisdom to patty smarts. this is not comedy.

Ah, Wisdom -> Smarts. Yep. That's what he did. What a hack. I'm embarrassed that I didn't catch that on my own.
