Heyward above Piscotty.

I fucking hate the ASG.

 

[Silver Arrows]

AL vs the Cubs:

at this point it's going to be Red Sox vs Cubs

Wow I saw Ryan Braun is 5th, I thought "Isn't he washed up?"

But I looked and he's actually having a terrific season so far. Guess we just never hear about it because there's not a single Brewers fan in this thread lol

eznark we hardly knew ye

 

[Windu]

AL vs the Cubs:

i wonder who will represent the braves. I'm guessing it will be Arodys Vizcaino.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

i wonder who will represent the braves.

They'll let Chipper Jones be third base coach.

 

[Silver Arrows]

They'll let Chipper Jones be third base coach.

Do you think that he whispers shit about Sandy Hook in your ear?

 

[Windu]

i think the braves win streak will stop at 6. no world series.

edit: Ichrio 17 away from 3000

If the Mets can bring back Reyes just as a backup infielder it'd be great but that certainly shouldn't be THE move. He can kinda be the Uribe of this year

 

[GK86]

Even if his legs are shot, he would probably still be the fastest player on the Mets.


Which is sad.

 

[Chris R]

Mariners have resigned Tom Wilhelmsen and traded for Toronto pitcher Wade LeBlanc.


Uhh.... welcome back Tom....??

I'm sure he loves being back with the Mariners after we blew him up earlier in the season and helped get him out of Texas.

Fuuuuuuuuuuck why can't it be early May again.

 

[BumRush]

Agreed, it'd be Reyes, Lagares then...deGrom*?



*wish I was kidding...

Cespedes?

 

[Choomp]

Can SNY get these ads under control lol? The same thing three times in a row and its been the same shit all year too

 

[BumRush]

Cespedes?

Haha you're right...when Yo is trying to run from point A to point B, he's very fast

 

[Choomp]

Ugh, Flores whiffed. Good throw by Rivera still

Never mind, guess there wasn't that much evidence or something. Really bad bunt by Duffy

 

[Godzilla's Left Toe]

Wilmer Flores is an awful baseball player and MLB umps are as bad

 

[GK86]

He was safe.

 

[Silver Arrows]

Staten Island Yankees looking to change name:

http://news.sportslogos.net/2016/06/21/staten-island-yankees-will-have-a-new-name-in-2017/

One of the commenters suggested Ghosts or Killer Bees. If there isn't a name based on Wu-Tang I am gonna fucking riot

 

[Choomp]

Yo the Ghosts sounds so dope. I would make my team like the cyborgs or something with some gray/white uniforms or some shit

 

[Sanjuro]

I both hate and embrace the various minor leagues for being the wild west of professional sports branding.

 

[GK86]

0 for their last 25 w/RISP.

Smh.

 

[Silver Arrows]

Come on, anything Wu-Tang and sports is amazing.

 

[Caja 117]

Cant wait for this game to be over so we Dont have to play the Rockies again this season.

 

[Choomp]

Did the Mets just come through with 2 outs? Nice slide by Cabrera

 

[GK86]

1 for their last 28 with RISP. World Series, here we come.

 

[Friggz]

Cant wait for this game to be over so we Dont have to play the Rockies again this season.

why the hell are the rockies playing like world beaters against the yankees?

 

[Silver Arrows]

They are playing in the AL East. It's essentially Coors without the altitude

 

[GK86]

Do other broadcasters eat as much in their booth as Gary, Keith and Ron do?

 

[Silver Arrows]

No, but I wish Buck and Tabby did. Or did anything that made them more interesting then the vanilla dumbasses they are.

 

[the_firewithin]

Wait when did the braves call up jenkins?

 

[Windu]

Wait when did the braves call up jenkins?

Damn I missed his debut. Anyway they called him up about a week ago.

 

[The Elite]

No, but I wish Buck and Tabby did. Or did anything that made them more interesting then the vanilla dumbasses they are.

A real athlete. Big strong hands.

 

[Silver Arrows]

A real athlete. Big strong hands.

HIGH AND DEEP

There, you never have to watch a Jays game live on TV again.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

I have a feeling that 2 on, no out situation is probably going to be the best scoring situation the Cards will have all day.

 

[GK86]

Homerun Mets.

West coast remains best coast:

Imagine a contest, where all the home runs hit are splash hits, you’re surrounded by old fighter jets, and the contest is on a boat. A giant boat. And not just any boat—an old aircraft carrier.

Well, that’s exactly what took place aboard the USS Midway in San Diego on Monday evening.

It’s the 75th anniversary of the California League this year and the Lake Elsinore Storm (High-A affiliate of the Padres), host of this year’s All-Star Game festivities, went all out and had the home run derby called the Midway Classic.

The California League is certainly different than most leagues, especially when you play in rather hitter friendly conditions like at Lancaster’s stadium, where there could be 30 MPH winds on any given night, or in High Desert, which is at 2,871 feet above sea level and also has a lot of windy conditions.

"This is as different you can get as far as a home run derby goes," Shaw said. "I mean, we're on a boat on the ocean, hitting balls into the bay. I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like it. I think if people are trying to compare the Cal League and other leagues in terms of differentness, this is definitely right up there."

Washington Nationals prospect and current Potomac Nationals third baseman Drew Ward agreed with the sentiment.

"This is Cal League written all over it," Ward said. "It's a lot different. Weather, people, you're by a beach, it's a lot different than the Carolina League."

Looks like the Giants are trying Ruben Tejada out at 3B down in AAA.

Mets-GAF, does he have any past experience at that spot?

Uh... Not that I recall? Probably a little bit at some point

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Arrieta can't handle the Cardinals

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Can't get the big hit. Those blown opportunities are going to cost them.

Matheny taking a page from Maddon's playbook wrt BP.

 

[Dominican Power]

Trade Beltran for the love of god.

 

[Silver Arrows]

Trade Beltran for the love of god.

watch the yanks not trade anybody on the delusions that they can still make it

 

[Little Green Yoda]

What a Giants-eque way to score. Hope Wacha can find his groove again.

 

[AgentChris]

He played a few games last season during Wright's absence. One thing you don't have to worry about with Tejada is defense.

 

[billeh]

Shades of that series where we got swept by the Phillies last year that completely destroyed our season.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

<3 Marp

If only this team could learn to win games at home.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Matt Carpenter is seriously underrated

 

[prag16]

Familia at the top of his game. Trying to get a little revenge. The movement on these pitches.. crazy. The 98mph sinker for the strikout was insane.

 

[Choomp]

Familia looks dirty again. Nice W!

 

[Tragicomedy]

Watching our AAA team get demolished right now and got the score alert. Congrats on the sweep, Mets GAF.
