  2. oh well, there are other fish in the sea
  3. ironically shifts might improve the pace of play if you determine they successfully limit offense (but there may be secondary effects where this causes teams to try to walk more) i think the push to eliminate shifts stems instead from them sucking some of the fun out of the game for a lot of people
  4. It probably won't shorten game time at all. Any time saved by not making a pitching change will be offset by a pitcher afraid to throw strikes to a guy he doesn't feel he can get out, and/or shenanigans teams will apply to get around the rule. And any rule that favors the offense does not cut time out of the game. It's just such a pointlessly dumb rule. i don't even know that game duration is the issue, so much as big gaps of time where nothing horsefeathering happens and you gotta sit there and watch Bruce Bochy or whoever do their interminable waddle to the pitchers mound followed by eighteen meaningless warmup tosses before the same exercise gets repeated in two minutes after the new guy issues a walk it's the worst part of baseball and nobody likes it
  5. the best part of baseball is baseball happening, the worst part of baseball is the waiting around for baseball to happen; this reduces that some It really is, it fundamentally changes things. LOOGY’s will become extinct. willy-wonka-stop-dont.gif
  6. should be a full inning
  7. i should have clarified, "at nsb(b)"
  8. as i recall it i hated Todd Hollandsworth unhealthy levels didn't everyone mostly hate Theriot at some point
  9. Theo sucks, i hate the Ricketts, oh well, it is what it is
  10. Cool story bro Izzo was a mile ahead of Beilien yesterday....I can rarely say that so I was pleased i would have liked to have seen Matthews put on Winston for a stretch to see if they could force anybody else to try to create
  11. there really is no rock bottom
  12. Ethan Happ watching his teammates from the bench is the truest expression of disappointment
  13. hoping that this is how he introduces himself to the team https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NagJbpNIzkE
  14. can Brad Davison even step outside on a windy day without falling over
  15. Stearns is horsefeathering good
  16. this is very unsettling https://twitter.com/tjcrosby22/status/1082466285110341632
  17. this basically concedes Theo has zero moral compass, which tbh is pretty fair
  18. during this whole saga, Theo is basically Homer watching the pig fly "it's just a little bit of domestic violence, he's still good..."
  19. kind of funny that Descalso had higher WPA than Nolan Arenado & Manny Machado this year
  20. looking at his stats, Raines' knees seems another tragic victim of Olympic Stadium brutality along with guys like Vlad & Dawson
  21. this fuckin guy.. https://twitter.com/kimjnews/status/1073337101062672384
