  1. Your pitching was beyond ridiculous to get you 4 this week. 58 Ks and 0.94 WHIP wasn’t quite good enough…
  2. That’s a thick 19 year old. Wooooo.
  3. I’m chill. And he hit those out like boners in sweatpants.
  4. Mountcastle with 9 RBI tonight…5 more than the Boner I’m playing has this week.
  5. Go find you some good walleye. My old man (RIP) and I went to Minneapolis for the Ryder Cup at Hazeltine in 2016 and I remember some pretty good joints. What makes you the fuckin expert?
  6. Accurate handle is accurate. Stros win the division and the giant Costco in Arlington is empty per usual in September.
  7. My OF is/was incredibly thin after the draft. I was desperately scouring the FA/waiver wire. I wasn’t sure my claim would work out, I was about halfway down the league in waiver status.
  8. Oh and I thought it was all about defense. His route to the Jimenez double was fucking awful. Renfroe-esque.
  9. The fuck does Chas have to do to play the first couple of days? He should have been out there last night as an honor/thank you above anything else.
  10. This whole page and other articles it links to is gold. @Biff Tannen I suggest you read this - it gives some serious arguments for the changes that go beyond the obvious. I’ve been totally swayed on both the pitch clock and the shift since seeing it in person and playing out the new gamesmanship that takes the place of needless dicking around. And yes, 20 minutes fewer per game of needless dicking around - or FIFTY FOUR hours over a 162 game season - is welcome in my book. To say this changes the game completely ignores the fact that the game changed in the first place with analytics and the defensive responses to the offensive changes. This brings the game back to the pace and ideal athletic five-tool player of old. Give it a shot.
  11. Yeah, we can’t roll with Dubon and Meyers in the same lineup very often. Ugly. But the Sox pitchers brought it. Bummer has some of the craziest movement on his slider in the league.
  12. It was Tucker. Was weird - almost like he goaded him into taking third.
  13. For one day, this has gone spectacularly well. 5-5, HR, 4 RBI for Rutschman. I hope the O’s score 10 runs every game!
  14. I think it’s more about the defense than offense with Meyers. At least that’s what my insider has said drives that particular roster decision.
  15. Huh, interesting. No huge loss though. I guess they are very comfortable in Diaz as the backup 1B.
