Losing by 4 runs... there goes the season boys.

 

[Osorio]

David Wright on 15 day DL with strained hammy. Eric Campbell is promoted and will likely be the one playing third. Wright will receive a cortisone shot and resume baseball activities in two days

Could've been worse?

Is Cuddyer playing tonight?

I'm no fan of the Dodgers but this is stupid. I love his bat flips and the energy he brings to the game.

He is back in the lineup tonight.

Don't expect him too have many opportunities to do it this season anyway.

As a fan of Cuban baseball, this makes me sad.

The game over there is part sport, part theatrics, and that playful spirit is admonished over here. I guess, in certain cases. I remember people loving El Duque for the crazy shit he did on the mound. So why demonize Puig?

Fenway is really great in terms of finding places for beer.

Just found a lonely old man selling beer in a corner of the section I'm in.

It's all Bill Plaschke's fault.

People are so damn thin skinned these days that a little show of emotion on the field is considered "disrespectful" to the game. Players should be bringing emotion to the game. Baseball is all about having fun. Having everyone follow some strict rule set for how to act just makes the game boring.

I hope he calls out Babe Ruth for calling that shot.

Over/Under on Russell Martin's batting average at the end of April: .100

Niese's first batter in his last start: gives up HR

Niese's first batter in his second start: gives up triple

Improvement.

Yeah that shit was hilarious. That fan literally has no sense of spacial awareness. I feel for the girl who got her beer spilled, sucks.

Why is Eovaldi wearing #42? I thought Mo was the last one who would wear it?

Jackie Robinson Day

Jackie Robinson Day

Wow, I'm retarded.

 

[The Elite]

Why?

It's a joke about him moving Donaldson to the two spot in the lineup.

I am sure it isn't the reason their offence is looking good today.

It's a reason why young people don't really gravitate to baseball in this country. Although every respective league has done something to drain the joy out of the game, especially The NFL. I would say Soccer is the only team sport where you can truly be an individual.

Yeah, in my day they let NFL murderers off the hook.

WTF does that have to do with anything?

 

[Dominican Power]

Nice hit by Beltran.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Maybe TDA is finally developing into the player he was traded for.

 

[Tragicomedy]

Nothing, except your post read like an old man yelling at clouds.

The NFL has become way more fun and score oriented, not the opposite.

 

[Frozenprince]

Who knows.

In Japan and Korea, the game is soooo much more fun. Guys flip bats, throw their gloves, scream, shout.

It's just fun, they have FUN playing. We don't see that in the pro leagues anymore.

Based TD'A SO GOOD

Fun to watch maybe (though I think killing defense is a mistake) but not for the players. Don't celebrate, don't be unique, don't individualize yourself.

It's a problem.

 

[zroid]

I guess we finally remembered how to offence

 

[Lexxism]

I guess we finally remembered how to offence

Well, let's see if we will see that again tomorrow.

 

[Osorio]

Niese with the clutch hit.

Sabathia/Eovaldi back to back in the rotation is going to drive me nuts

I knew The AL East will destroy Eovaldi.

Nova will save the back of the rotation .

Erasmo Ramirez is the biggest fucking scrub to ever pitch in MLB. He's faced 37 batters this year and 16 of them have scored. Unreal.

Marquis is a shitshow out here.

I'm actually Chiefs fan from the 80s and 90s, so you know I'm about the D. But the ratings don't lie.

Yeah, if anyone does any kind of bat-flip in the MLB, the next time they're up to bat they'll get a pitch near their ears. It's like they're "disrespecting" the pitcher or something.

 

[BFIB]

I really don't think any team has stranded more base runners than the Cards.

Adams has left 18 on base, Jay has left 16.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Looks like the Mets gotta pay more for Duda if he keeps this up.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

I hate watching Drew Pomeranz pitch. He cannot miss bats.

 

[Syrinx]

I dunno man, our payroll is already 21st in MLB.
