Looks like this might get played tonight after all.

 

Yeah strange, when I went to bed last night it looked like it was going to pour all day and night. Now it just looks like a few hours of rain mid-day.

People are bad at reading forecasts

This team isn’t cool enough for The Office gifs

Expected Nellie, but I guess that’s too far

That's if the season is in danger of ending under .500.

cub darvish strikes me as a guy who will definitely handle pitching in 30 degrees super well.

I don't even know what "drop a pair" means.

I like how that reads like he's screaming at Rogers like a lunatic since nowhere does it say anything about Yu saying anything about the weather or pitching in it.

 

Not that him screaming at Darvish doesn't also make him sound like a lunatic.

I believe he is suggesting Yu Darvish is pre-pubescent and his testicles have not descended, and the man whose head looks like a scrotum might know what he's talking about.

I choose to read that as talking about Kaplan in general

[Sammy Sofa]

Oh my god, those horsefeathering cuffs.

Kaplan is so weird. Occasionally he seems like a decent dude that calls out bad takes and then he goes and says something really meatbally and stupid.

He's a massive jock sniffer excepting a certain subsection of athlete.

When the sample is 4 games (3 of which were last year) is 5.06 ERA even anything worth discussing?

That’s more than a viable sample for Jesse’s dumb ass brain and narratives he likes to push. He was bemoaning our strike out problem last year after 2-3 games that included a horsefeathering 18 inning game or whatever because the surface number was big but the rate stat was fine.

Haha I forgot about that. People kept calling out his idiocy on twitter and he kept doubling down

[Bryants Disco Ball]

It's weird to highlight Yu's struggles in cold weather when he pretty much sucks in all conditions.

Wasn’t it cold when he shoved us in the 2017 NLCS?
