NLDS preview right here. This offense scares me.

 

[Meier]

These two lefties we added suck shit.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

All part of the plan.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

These lefty relievers the dodgers traded for at the deadline suck ass.

 

[brianjones]

all those bandwagon republican dbag fans getting pretty loud with their beat LA chants

 

[rekameohs]

Why is the diamondbacks' mascot a Fucking bobcat?

Jay Bell's 4 year old son thought of it back when it was called Bank One Ballpark (BOB). Said son is a prospect in the Reds system now.

Not even joking.

 

[Frozenprince]

Cingrani had like negative wins the last three years.

It gives me life.

Rodney the Carson Palmer of MLB

 

[rekameohs]

If Jake Lamb has finally figured out how to hit lefties - three game winning smashes against them the last three series - then I am pretty fuckin excited about this lineup core.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Whoa. Dodgers got beat like first time in 2 months.

 

[rekameohs]

Did they chain the luchador in the Chase Field dungeon?

I unironically think that would be a dope af mascot, but eh what do I know

 

[Mortemis]

What are you currently using to watch MLB.TV?

When I subscribed to WWE Network I would always use the Windows 10 app over the actual site but it was always crashing.

Good god that Chris Ianetta home run has set off a chain reaction of stupid.

Usually watch it on my xbox. Works flawlessly.

See? M's have as good a chance to make it.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Smoak's breakout year.

Wonder what the Mariners did wrong aside from the large ball park.

Their overwhelmingly anemic line-up did not help.

 

[Choomp]

Rafael Montero is bad.

There has to be a 16 year old in the farm system better than this guy.

MLB and the MLB Players Association have agreed to celebrate Players Weekend Aug. 25-27, when all players will be permitted to wear colorful, non-traditional uniforms featuring alternate designs. Jerseys will be adorned with nicknames, and other portions of the uniform will be personalized in an effort to allow fans to get a better feel for a player's personality.

"I think it will be cool to see a change and something different," Braves outfielder Lane Adams said. "It should be interesting. I'm sure Brandon [Phillips] will have some style out there. It's good to add some personality to let everyone see what the player is about."

The nicknames will be displayed on the backs of the Majestic Athletic jerseys that will be worn during a home series against the Rockies from Aug. 25-27.

Freddie Freeman opted to go with simply "Freddie." Kurt Suzuki settled for "Zuk" after a request for Duke Kahanamoku (a famous Hawaiian surfer) was denied. Adams will have his Twitter handle (@LA_Swiftness) on his jersey.

"I think it will give fans a little inside perspective and a chance to see a different side of the players," said Braves left-handed reliever Sam Freeman, who will have "Freezy" on the back of his jersey.

Players will also be permitted to don uniquely colored and designed spikes, batting gloves, wristbands, compression sleeves, catcher's masks and bats. Flowers' normal chest protector includes neon trim, but the equipment he has ordered for Players Weekend will be even more eccentric.

"I know Flo is pumped about it, He's got his gear coming in," Suzuki said. "It's a surprise. I can't spill the beans, but it's supposed to be pretty cool. You'll see him, that's for sure."
Players will wear specially designed caps by New Era, and unique socks from Stance.

During pregame workouts and postgame interviews, they will wear T-shirts highlighting a charity or cause of their choice. Each player will also wear a special patch on his sleeve showing the progression of a child evolving into a Major Leaguer. The white space under the logo will allow players to include the name of a person who aided the advancement of their journey to the Majors.

Braves closer Arodys Vizcaino plans to honor his mother by placing her name within the white space.

Some of these nicknames lol:

 

[jello44]

Astros jerseys look like butt.

Marisnick is "Big Fudge". I gotta know the story behind that.

 

[Chris R]

Some of those jerseys look really good.

Others look like trash.

Also, names on the back of the Yankees jerseys? Surprised they didn't opt out.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Not feeling the colors on the Dodgers jerseys.

 

[Line_HTX]

Devo the Dragon, lol

 

[Corran Horn]

No creativity here

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Better hope that accent doesn't fall off of the 14 jersey

 

[Line_HTX]

Mad Bum is definitely a bum.

 

[Mortemis]

Kyle really went with "Corey's brother" 😂

 

[XiaNaphryz]

You're tied with the Cubs now!

 

[alr1ght]

Cody Allen is trash tier. He's only slightly better than Bryan Shaw.

 

[Lunar FC]

Lucroy! Very badly needed.

Yeah, was kinda surprised at that.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Braves recalled Dansby Swanson and put Camargo on the DL

 

[jello44]

Springer activated from the 10-Day DL.

 

[Line_HTX]

That was the longest two weeks ever. Now we need Correa back.

Is there any way, any fucking possible way to fix this starting pitching...

 

[BFIB]

First off, if you're going to do the whole jersey thing, bring back the "future jersey" deal. Those were sweet.

Here's the Cards:

 

[Westonian]

Contreras pulls up lame grabbing his hammy...

I hate baseball.
