The Astros belong in the National League and interleague play should be restricted to May/June like it used to be.
  3. just checked out the upcoming schedule - the fucking yankees? aren't those games supposed to be in May? The Astros belong in the National League and interleague play should be restricted to May/June like it used to be. i was hoping to see Atlanta on the schedule but they don't show up until the final series. meanwhile, tomorrow is the last game with Washington - good thing THEY aren't in the race. bad scheduling of division opponents. should be two series against each in September.
  4. this is bullshit. i hate the sunday night game especially during football season.
  5. I think it would be fair to say "props" for his athleticism but he started out by making the same lazy play (or really, non-play) that most putchets would there. Im sure things have changed since i was a kid, but they never shifted in little league amd therefore never gave any thought to where the pitcher needs to be on that play. Nobody learned that. Which to me means it is on the club, not the player, to figure that out and teach it in spring training.

  10. =batmagadanleadoff post_id=76200 time=1630530109 user_id=68] Maybe he wasnt dozing it off. Maybe he fell asleep at a red light. With the motor running.
  11. =Ceetar post_id=76202 time=1630530501 user_id=102] The Tony La Russa special. Who's managing the White Sox.
  12. =Ceetar post_id=76197 time=1630529731 user_id=102] i dunno about 'safe to say' he's gonna lose his license for 6 months, and that's probably it, legally. I mean, he might've been gone anyway, but baseball doesn't typically care about this stuff.
  13. its going to vary from state to state, but even if the keys arent in the ignition they can still make reasonable inferences. for example, in the bar's parking lot? maybe just sleeping it off. on the side of the high way? obviously drunk driving.
  14. Was Richie Hebner on that team?

  16. Edgy MD wrote: I can't. But you get 3,007 hits, 502 stolen bases, and 975 strikeouts off of this one. [FIMG=500]https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/RbIAAOSwjgtf727r/s-l400.jpg[/FIMG] Who d'ya think was the most promising rookie on that card, coming out of the gate? You could make the case for Berenguer, with his legendary, though uncontrollable triple digit fast-ball that he had in his youth. Mookie looks like he just woke up in that picture "uhh hey guys, is it photo time? shit."
  17. Putting a micro speaker in the pitchers cap that only the manager and pitcher coach can access (like a quarterback?) would eliminate most strictly pitching- messages that need to be 'conveyed.' If a strategic mound visit is needed, the manager or coach doesn't need to be present, pitcher can say something like, "Skip says were doing A & B unless C happens then do D." Probably a pipe dream. it would make the next cheating scandal easier too "we think they just gave the sign for a suicide squeeze - throw it up and in and lets find out!"

  19. my only point was the breaks and length of a football are extreme, even compared to baseball. Claiming you watch football but baseball games are too long is just nonsense. How long does golf take to watch? I'm tired of the narrative always being "waah, baseball was better in my day" It wasn't. Give me a 1972 game and a 2019 game and I'm taking 2019 every time. It's not the length of game that's keeping Koosman from watching, even if he wants to tell himself, and us, that. Oh I don't believe Koosman at all. But the NFL's breaks are fine - because there is a fantasy team to check, and survivor pool, and your draftkings team, and RedZone and... it hardly feels like a break when the Jets go to commercial (a break from the misery of the Jets perhaps). Some of these distractions exist in baseball too, but not to the same degree, because of the length of the season each NFL game day just feels more intense.
  20. Edgy MD wrote: OK, nobody else saw this junk heap? Good? its on my watch list, but my list is dozens of items long and most end up getting deleted without watching eventually. based on your description of the plot, i'm already scratching my head. If the aliens are kicking ass in the future, why send people into the ass-kicking? why not prepare now to prevent that future?
  21. Frayed Knot wrote: One of my proposed rule changes is that if a batter gets a hit immediately following a mound visit that team loses mound visit privileges for the next two weeks. I have a better idea: 1 mound visit per team per game. that is it. play the game.
  22. =Ceetar post_id=75907 time=1630290837 user_id=102] That's an old man yells at cloud reason anyway. he wouldn't be watching the games if they were 2:40 either. I mean, he cited golf and football for gods sakes.
  23. Pissed the Mets traded for this clown
  24. SAndy could've just let it be with this tweet from Kevin an hour prior to his statement. https://twitter.com/KPILLAR4/status/1432122038915846146 Well, Kevin got it right. Javy...didn't.
  25. I 1000% forgot that Cano was a New York Met.
