Google News had a Jays blog post listed where the author was railing on against people who booed the Jays yesterday. Never understood that - booing is basically the same emotive act as cheering; should people just sit in their seats in total silence?

 

[Beckx]

You root for specific high school kids?

yeah, it's part of the fun at Koshien. there are high school baseball specific magazines that come out and focus on the stars and preview all the schools. pitchers in general tend to get a lot of focus, especially if they go on a nearly unhittable run like Hiranuma did. then the draft happens in November.

Ken Rosenthal

Sources: deGrom has stiff neck, being pushed back to tomorrow. Harvey will start for #Mets on normal rest tonight.

Oh jeez

 

[Beckx]

Stiff neck? Given the Mets doctor, I'll just assume he's been decapitated

 

[clav]

Didn't know that baseballs at some fields are stored in coolers.

Fangraphs article yesterday described how that would affect homerun production in Chase Field.

 

[CygnusXS]

DeGrom is now undergoing surgery to replace his neck with a spring. He'll be back on the mound on his regular rest.

Oh jeez

If Mets Doctor diagnosed this, he probably actually has a dislocated throwing shoulder and needs to go on the 60 day DL.

 

[Sanjuro]

DeGrom is actually deceased.

 

[Rommel]

DeGrom is actually deceased.

Calling rigamortis a stiff neck... classic Mets MD's.

 

[Alex Stroud]

Mets doc opened a black hole in the exam room and now DeGrom doesn't exist.

 

[Frozenprince]

i know no one will care but this kid I rooted for in Koshien 2015 (he led his team to the championship too) got called up by the Fighters and got a cheer shirt already

Japanese baseball is so cool in that regard

19 years old. Good for him.

 

[Choomp]

So Flores is on the DL and Cabrera isn't in the lineup today either.

GOOD.

BREAKING: Bumgarner on DL. Sprained his left shoulder in a dirt bike accident.

Grade 1 or 2 sprain in the AC joint in his pitching shoulder

Dumbass

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Rangers released Josh Hamilton again. Apparently he injured his other knee now and needs more surgery. Looks like it may be over for him.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Bumgarner, lmao. That's just so stupid.

 

[Loco4Coco]

At least Granderson and Reyes will get more playing time...

Odd year

 

[BFIB]

Odd year

Next year: Bumgarner falls out of plane, lands on his feet, will make start tomorrow.

 

[Line_HTX]

Madison Bumgarner training for the X-Games BMX dirt, eh?

;P

Wish him the best in his retirement and hope he can stay sober.

 

[Corran Horn]

Man fuck this year.

meanwhile:

@ESPNStatsInfo
The Pirates are 6-0 on games played on Friday, Saturday or Sunday. They're 0-9 on games any other day.

Hrm. Not sure how to feel about this. Hope Glasnow really has that new change working today. He's going to need it.

Wish I could have made a road trip up to PNC today.

 

[Windu]

Man fuck this year.

Odd year magic

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Reports coming out that Francisco Lindor turned down a 7-year extension worth over $100 million.

 

[Beckx]

Bum won't be enforcing the rules for 8 weeks, apparently.

 

[Corran Horn]

Odd year magic

Why does it have to be his pitching side... Why

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Did somebody look at him while he hit that sweet air?

There goes Kershaw-Bumgarner!

 

[Windu]

Reports coming out that Francisco Lindor turned down a 7-year extension worth over $100 million.

All the young players in MLB seem to be waiting for Free Agency these days.

 

[Malo]

Holy shit Harper

 

[SRTtoZ]

LOL. Sick strike below the knees. I swear I can't wait for robots to take over these old men officiating.

 

[Choomp]

Scooter!

 

[Beckx]

Who had Jordy Mercer lead off home run?

I love that the twitter commentary is that Glasnow survived the first. Hrm.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Man fuck this year.

😛

 

[Sanjuro]

The Orioles alternative cap is fucking stupid. Not Cleveland Indians C-Block bad, but bad.

 

[BFIB]

That 2018 class is gonna set a new bar.

 

[BigAT]

So much for CC's hot start to the season.

 

[Beckx]

holding on to that friday magic

 

[Malo]

There's the CC I remember.

 

[timetokill]

Bumgarner on the DL now :O

He was probably dirt biking trying to get out all the rage he has at his teammates for never winning when he starts this year lmao

 

[Frozenprince]

Harvey has looked good today. Nothing to do about Harper driving one into space.

 

[Parch]

Those seats will be silent when nobody is sitting in them.
They led the league in attendance but don't want to spend to improve the team. I expect to see a major drop off in attendance that will be a louder message than any booing.

 

[Frozenprince]

Roark has no business being as good as he is.

 

[Chuck]

I never thought I'd hate seeing Jim Thome's 600th as much as I do.

Thanks MLB.tv!

This elite Nats defense tho
