How can such a big city feel so limited? There are millions of people in New York City, but it can be hard to find that someone special. A recent survey of Big Apple residents had some interesting insights: most New Yorkers wait at least a few dates before hooking up, and less than half would hook up after a great first date. A whopping 26% wait a few weeks before hitting the sack, which seems surprising. Maybe I have been doing it wrong all along. (Or right!)

Merks axs a very good question:
merks: I know it's not ideal but I would rather have Franklin as my DH 4 times a week with a game or two in the field than trade him or send him down to Tacoma. Am I missing something here or has this been talked about?
....
SSI is all about creative thinking, but .... Let's start with an understanding how how most ML teams view reserve infielders (which is, like it or not, how they would view Nick Franklin if he were on the 25-man roster).
They view it as a VERY difficult, you could almost say near-impossible, assignment: Your Willie Bloomquist, or your Mark McLemore, that guy is there to raise the manager's comfort level. He has to sit on the bench, and be ready to play:
And he has to do so at a time when the manager is frazzed out. The regular third baseman is drunk and hung over, let's say, and you got CC Sabathia in New York, and he looks down the bench, he doesn't want to see a kid with eyes like saucers. Willie is there to jump into SS for one day and -- say it with Dr. D, now -- Not. Hurt. the. Team.
The reserve infielder is there to FEEL very reliable -- and to do so as a second baseman. Then to feel very reliable as a third baseman. Then to FEEL very reliable, as a shortstop.
I can’t believe that March is more than halfway over, and I have yet to discuss some of the great new Netflix streaming movies this month. Truth: I’ve been a little bit too busy with work, and instead of my usual late-night Netflix binges, I’ve been basically passing out each night in my comfy chair. We’ve all been there. It’s just a phase, and I have no doubt I’ll be back in tip top movie watching form soon enough.
