  1. It'd be hard to resist the urge to say "No shit, Glenn Sherlock" any time he gave me advice that I already knew as someone who had played baseball my entire life.
  2. Benjamin Grimm wrote: So the Reds and Cy Young are like the Mets and the MVP. The Mets have six Cy Young awards. Do the Reds have more MVPs than that? (They might, they go back a long way.) Okay, so I looked it up. The Reds have 12 MVPs. They practically owned that award in the 1970s (not surprising) and also had three in a row from 1938 through 1940: Ernie Lombardi 1938 Bucky Walters 1939 Frank McCormick 1940 Frank Robinson 1961 Johnny Bench 1970 Johnny Bench 1972 Pete Rose 1973 Joe Morgan 1975 Joe Morgan 1976 George Foster 1977 Barry Larkin 1995 Joey Votto 2010 Pretty impressive to have four different MVPs in a six year stretch all on the same team (1972-77 specifically).
  3. Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: They got off to a terrible start, and they deservedly are in last place is the league's weakest division, but shh... they have really good pitching. This week's matchups: Roark-Wheeler Castillo-Vargas DiScalfani-Syndergaard You missed one, this is a four game set.
  4. They're mascot is Mr. Met's cousin, Mr. Redlegs, or some such nonsense, who carries the trademark mustache of a known child molester.
  5. He had a brutal game Saturday and is off to a rocky start. I don't think Nido will ever be much of a hitter, yesterday being the rare exception, but if he can be a solid guy with the mitt and spell Ramos once a week, I suppose he's just another MLB backup catcher. I'd prefer Mesoraco as the bench guy, I feel like he could at least give you the rare pop, not that he wants to participate.

  7. Pretty damn lackluster so far. If deGrom and Syndegaard are gonna take big shits on the mound it's going to be a long sad summer.
  8. Sure, give the run back. Good strategy.
  9. I am hoping that one of these errant pitches ends up in Zeile's mouth. He's pretty difficult to listen to. We are spoiled, I think, with all these years of GKR.
  10. A 7:10 PM start, no one super eager to get the IGT going apparently, so I will be that guy. Thor vs. Brandon Woodruff. It's also bobblehead night if you care about such things. I do not.
  11. I'll let you know if I run into this guy in Wegmans, or Lake Minnetonka.
  12. Not so sharp. That guy swung at ball four. I don't like this new deGrom, bring me back the one who never gives up a hit or walk. Thanks.
  13. My nerdish friends were super bonered up about this movie. I still wouldn't know what the hell was going on, I've seen virtually none of the last 20 years' worth of superhero movies.
  14. I'm like 8th inning drunk and we're 8 pitches in. Not a good sign.
  15. All I learned from this is that Rhys Hopkins is a dickhole.
  16. I turned it off when Gsellman came in and stunk up the joint.
  17. =seawolf17 post_id=8062 time=1556107967 user_id=91] Hmm. Driving through Rochester, or heading south from Syracuse and over?
  18. Any interest in a CPF meetup on Sat, August 3rd in Pittsburgh? My wife and daughter are camping all weekend with the Girl Scouts, so I was thinking my son and I might drive out for that game (it's a 7 PM start, fireworks night). I have heard only great things about that stadium and Fboy has never been to a Mets road game before.
  19. I have not done my part to help attendance, yet. (There's a 10:35 AM game today for the kids, forecasted temps around 48 degrees at game time, no thank you). We'll be there more often come June.
  20. This game has been fun. Todd Zeile sucks though, rest up Ronnie.
  21. Jesus, has Guillorme ever had an MLB hit? He's brutal as a batter.
  22. In other news, [bIGPURPLE]KABOOOOOOOM![/bIGPURPLE]
  23. These are my first looks at the Cano HBP from yesterday. Sorry, that's not a swing, I don't know what planet you're on where that's an offering at a pitch.
  24. Bullet dodged? Let's hope so.
