    This throw deserves the MLB thread.   

  • So in 2009, my daughter and I were in Omaha at the CWS.  I got an email from her softball coach saying that they had a kid drop off the All-Star team and would she want to replace her?  But she'd have

It's my understanding that the unwritten rules say that if you're going to throw at a guy for something, you do it on the first pitch of his next AB, and here are the Twins, throwing at him with their third pitcher of the game in the 7th inning?   READ THE UNWRITTEN RULES, YA FUCKING TWINKIE DIPSHITS!

Doesn't need it, he has an office.

This is for @WBT, @UTexasFight, etc. Here’s the cheap CF you may wind up with.

DeShields is raking for Triple A Round Rock, batting a team-leading .412 (14 for 34) in nine games with two leadoff home runs and a 1.206 OPS. It’s early, but he’s doing all the things offensively he didn’t do in the spring.

Other teams are calling. The thinking is he’s going to get a chance in the majors this season, just maybe not with the Rangers.

Ah, Delino DeShields.  His daddy is the answer to the question: what was the best trade the Dodgers ever made?  The Dodgers pulled one over on the Expos, trading a lightly regarded reliever for the speedy DeShields.  Well, it seemed like a good trade at the time.  The pitcher turned out to be pretty decent though.  Something Martinez.  I can't remember.

I thought it was Yordan for Josh Fields

Orsillo and Grant are the best announcing pair in the league.

Red Sox really fucked up letting Orsillo go.

I just took this pic as I was going to post how weird it is to see this, and two seconds later he deposits it in the right center seats.

A Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania jury has convicted Felipe Vázquez on fifteen counts stemming from a sexual assault of a 13-year-old girl. Specifically, Vázquez was found guilty on ten counts of sexual abuse of children, two counts of unlawful contact with a minor, one count of statutory sexual assault, one count of corruption of a minor, and one count of indecent assault of someone under 16 years old. He will be sentenced in approximately three months and faces a potential decades-long prison term and/or possible deportation to his native Venezuela. Vázquez was acquitted on ten counts of unlawful contact or communication with a minor.

Vázquez was arrested in September 2019 after it was revealed he’d begun a sexual relationship with the underaged girl in 2017. The victim moved to Florida in 2018, where Vázquez allegedly continued to have sex with her. A Florida-based prosecution related to those allegations is still pending, Cholodofsky notes, as is a Missouri child pornography case based on sexually implicit images Vázquez allegedly received from the victim while he was in St. Louis in 2019.

The Pirates placed Vázquez on the restricted list in the immediate aftermath of his arrest. The guaranteed portion of his contract expires at the end of the 2021 season.

Organist at Dodger Stadium played “I Saw The Signs” when Reddick came up.  Nice.

** Just a general bitching post**

I hate the shift.  Actually, scratch that.  I don't mind the shift...I hate the fact that major league hitters can't bunt or go the other way any more.

I know "chicks dig the long ball", but if you're playing the shift and the 3rd baseman is at short...I'm bunting or slapping every time up.

.236 mlb average is the lowest in the history of the game.  That's awful.

 

*rant off*

 

go Stros.

 

I will be the first to admit that I thought Jansen was done and shouldn't close another game. But I have seen his last 4-5 games, and his velocity is way up and that nasty cutter is back. 1.37 ERA with 10 saves. Hope he can keep it up.

Your lineup is bad when your #3 hitter was just purchased for a dollar.

Sooooo, a former Yankees (and Astros, and 7 other teams) catcher accuses the Rockies of a sign stealing scheme in 2018.  But the NJ 'news' report buries the bigger accusation:

https://www.nj.com/yankees/2021/05/ex-yankees-catcher-calls-out-rockies-for-suspicious-sign-signaling.html

If you think no one else was doing it, you are wrong. The difference is, the Astros may have taken it a little too far. Maybe a little bit too far. Maybe continued to do it. Or maybe it’s just the fact that they won the World Series and everybody’s pissed about that.”

Kratz added that he knew of “two other teams that season” that were doing “very, very similar things.”

 

This will be shocking news to Manfred, I'm sure...

 

Did the Yankees ever have to release that letter?

Brewers reportedly suspect Dodgers are using video to steal signs

October 19, 2018

Spoiler

The Milwaukee Brewers suspect that the Los Angeles Dodgers are attempting to use video cameras to steal their signs in the National League Championship Series, according to The Athletic.

While they said that they have no direct evidence, the Brewers have suspicions that this has been happening throughout the series, which they informed Major League Baseball’s “resident security agents” about. The league said they have not detected anything.

“They use video people to get sequences,” a Brewers source told The Athletic of the Dodgers. “It’s known throughout the league. MLB knows it’s an issue.”

While this has become an increasing issue across the league, there was one instance in the sixth inning of Game 5 of the series on Wednesday in Los Angeles — in which the Dodgers won 5-2 — that tipped off Brewers catcher Erik Kratz.

From The Athletic:

Manny Machado stood alone at second base, beginning to lean towards third. With Chris Taylor at the plate and Corbin Burnes on the mound, Machado signaled to Taylor. First it was jumping in the air, then he began motioning with his hands. Seconds later, Taylor struck out.

As Taylor departed for the Dodgers’ dugout, catcher Erik Kratz went to the mound to talk to Burnes, both putting gloves over their mouths for the duration of the conversation. They were concerned that the Dodgers were picking up their signs, so they discussed their next move. Home plate umpire Jim Wolf broke up the meeting, and Los Angeles wound up scoring two runs that inning, taking a 3-1 lead. The next inning, they scored two additional runs, bringing the game to 5-1.

“So, did we change signs? Or did we keep them the same?” said Kratz. “How do they know?”

While the team said they don’t think the Dodgers have “completely” figured out their signs, they have started using multiple signs even when Los Angeles doesn’t have a runner on base — something a rival executive said is a “dead giveaway they think something is up.”

The team has also seen repeatedly on video where Dodgers players “move around and use their hands in motions that seem as if they could be signals.”

“I mean, the whole cameras and things, that’s not something we can really control,” Milwaukee pitcher Zach Davies told The Athletic. “But when you see guys do certain things out on the field to relay certain signs to hitters, then you know you’ve got to make things a little bit more tricky or complex. It’s definitely something you’re paying attention to.”

Both the Brewers and Dodgers officially declined to comment to The Athletic.

The Dodgers currently lead the series 3-2 heading into Friday night’s Game 6 in Milwaukee.

Fuck the Yankees.

What's up with these super long gloves people are wearing these days?  I supposed it's so they don't jam their fingers on a base, and so they can "reach" the base sooner.  The gloves look ridiculous, as in way longer than they need to be.

 

Pretty soon guys will start wearing these for feet-first slides:

Long-toed cowboy boots | American funny videos, Funny pictures for kids,  Funny baby images

Oven mitt bro.

Jazz Chisholm probably would've fucked his fingers up if he wasn't wearing one tonight
