Random Baseball Musings

So out of money, need and ability, which one was the reason we signed no big free agents last year?

 

Lack of desire with some lack of money sprinkled on top.

 

So why aren't those going to continue?

 

Because that's part of what rebuilding is.

 

Anyway, I wanna change the bet to just two of one and one of the other. So either two big FAs and a big trade or two big trades and a big FA prior to opening day 2016. $300. Takers?

How to sneak into any baseball game. Slightly amusing video.

Buddy and I managed to sneak into Miller Park for a sold out game in September 03 one time. Someone was walking out of a random side door far from the main gates and we just walked right in that door. We basically just acted like SRO once we got in. Just walked around and watched from various areas.

 

Got pretty lucky considering we drove 90 miles without tickets and then couldn't find any.

Before anyone would take that bet there would have to be an agreement as to what qualifies as "big" (i.e. not Bonifacio, Kalish, Ruggiano, Baker, etc.)

3 "big" deals over the next 1.8 years?

According to a report released by the MLB league office Friday, injuries have significantly risen this season as a direct result of more players opting to slide headfirst into the dugout.

Archie Bradley hits the DL with a strained flexor in his elbow. Are there any elite pitchers left unscathed at this point?

 

Bradley, Walker, Bundy, Taillon, Zimmer, Edwards, Urias, Appel etc etc

 

Gausman joins this list.

I'm assuming he woke up at some random girl's apartment and realize he was late to the game and that was his only clothing/method of transportation.

A Moustakas 2B and a Butler HR on the same night is about as rare as it gets.

Selig added that the league is also considering improving safety by banning outfield players from launching themselves cleat-first into the stands with both feet while attempting to catch a foul ball.

 

Ahahahahahaha!

So what the hell kind of next level signal stealing are the Marlins doing at home?

I knew there was a good reason for them to put that monstrosity in left center.
