May 11, 20241 yr The juxtaposition of beautiful sunshine and Skenes steadily turning to wet and dark as the bullpen pisses it away is quite comical

May 12, 20241 yr Looks like we've found another starter in James Paxton. If our pitching holds up, we've got the best team in baseball.
May 12, 20241 yr And you'll still lose the season series to the Padres. Many years ago, Lasorda ranted about the Dodgers' bad luck against the Padres. Something like "the cocksuckers are 15 games under .500, but when they come up here they turn into the '27 Yankees"
May 13, 20241 yr Hey, he homered today and he has a higher BA than Matt Olson. Plus, swings like that mean he's just fucked in the head, not over the hill...
May 13, 20241 yr 19 hours ago, definitely not derka said: helo has a higher batting average than matt olson. Can you do for Olson whatever it is you did for Michael Harris last year? that would be swell.
May 13, 20241 yr This is for @Zonahorn. Quote Right-hander Adbert Alzolay, who opened the season as the Chicago Cubs' closer, was placed on the 15-day injured list on Monday with a right forearm strain. Right-hander José Cuas was recalled from Triple-A Iowa. Alzolay is 1-4 with a 4.67 ERA and has four saves in nine opportunities. Héctor Neris, who has six saves in seven chances, has moved into the closer's role though Alzolay earned the save in the Cubs' 5-4 win in 10 innings at Pittsburgh on Sunday. Neris was the winning pitcher. Alzolay becomes the eighth current Cubs player on the injured list. Cuas was recalled from the minors on Saturday when Yency Almonte was placed on the IL with a right shoulder strain. Cuas was then sent back to Iowa one day later when Kyle Hendricks was activated from the injured list.

May 14, 20241 yr I've caught one in my life and I wish I could have authenticated it somehow cause the last person to touch it before me was Ohtani because he was pitching(obviously).
May 14, 20241 yr I won tickets off 1300 for this game: https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/HOU/HOU200608160.shtml and got a foul off Chris Burke, I think.

May 15, 20241 yr The Astros pitcher clearly had a different substance than the other pitchers. Also, when your team is known for cheating you don’t get any benefit of the doubt

May 15, 20241 yr On 5/14/2024 at 3:33 PM, Underdog said: Pete would take that bet. Pete was actually looking for a FB outside corner. look at his first step. He'd have taken Helo to right for a single turned into a double. Rose actually used a 36 inch bat much of his career but he choked up a bit. dude probably has 2500 opposite field singles.
