He hits the best pitchers' best pitches? Wtf are they even talking about now?

 

i didn't find that comment to be particularly offensive

Mostly because it was designed to be verbally fellating and wasn't backed by any data, whatsoever.

Embarrassing when gets down to shaking the last 10 guys added 2 days ago.

 

Ohhhh you, thanks so much. Always said I couldn't do it without Tony Watson

Adam Wainwright admitted he grooved a fastball to Derek Jeter in the first: “I was gonna give him a couple pipe shots. He deserved it."

[SouthSideRyan]

lol, and "we'll watch some baseball along the way."

[ScrubMD]

I wonder what Jeter is doing now.

[SouthSideRyan]

I might have to question using your pinch runner with 2 outs and a lefty on the mound.

Saber-matics can't predict that.

Buck still finds a way to mention Molina.

[SouthSideRyan]

YEAH LET'S GET A YADI UPDATE!!!

[DiamondMind]

I'd almost, ALMOST, rather watch an Edwin Jackson start than this.

 

Which reminds me!! The Cubs announced part of their rotation after the break, Edwin will start the first game in Arizona. CONTAIN YOUR EXCITEMENT

Hopefully sneaky can resist making his next 19 posts about this.

TIL Scherzer broke into the bigs as a closer.

[ConstableRabbit]

Fleeing Cuba to make millions as a professional baseball player... such a sacrifice.

Fun fact, in his career Scherzer has pitched in the 9th inning once as a reliever, in a game that he entered in the 7th inning.

I just assumed his 0 career saves meant he wasn't mentally tough

I'm looking forward to Buck's subtle digs at each of them.

There's no way he doesn't mention Castro's "habitual laziness/lack of concentration" either in his first AB or when he comes in as a defensive sub.

not smart, sliding headfirst in the ASG - half of oakland just had their heart sink to their feet

Nailed it.

And Reynolds says Pujols (who has horrible footwork as a 1B) was the first 1B he'd ever seen "plug that hole [between first and second]".
