but im imploring you: fucking learn about baseball, or stop posting here.

 

 

I swear I’m gonna try and find a “Baseball for dummies” type book on strategy/management for my wife for Christmas. She doesn’t get it. Any of it.

”They should pull that fucker now” is a common phrase heard around here from time to time. No clue about how a bullpen works, or none of it.

oh yeah, aaron judge has played 89 games in the field this year and 55 at dh. only helobious could fail to understand the enormity of what raleigh has done as a switch hitting catcher vs what judge has done as a part time position player.

i never knew lasorda ...

Al Pacino lights Tommy Lasorda's cigar with Steve Yeager, Tom Paciorek and Bill Buckner. On the right is Tommy in a scene from Godfather 2 where he played a US military official. Though scene depicts Havana, Cuba it was shot in Santo Domingo, DR where Tommy was coaching . Did you know Tommy LaSorda was in Godfather 2?

Plus Cal is doing it without juiced balls, so his 60 homer season is legit.

Tommy built the farm system there. Got to sit with with him at a few Licey games. 

He owned that city Had his own table at the Lucky 7. He brought up Guerreo, the Martinez Brother's, etc. @Sbbruin knows the dates. Early 1980's.

Red Sox and Tigers going into the bottom of the 9th tied after Boston got 1 in the 8th to tie. Chapman just got out of a runner on third with 1 out. Some nasty fastballs at 102, dude still has it at age 37.

His catcher must have asked him to throw his fastball to a particular spot!

he might not be top 20 in jerseys sold, but he’s been one of the best players in baseball for awhile now, and he’s got a future spot in cooperstown waiting for him.
