    I remember being pissed because he was the Marlins broadcaster. [expletive] Marlins. lol right after we got lee and hollandsworth I was just glad it was anyone besides Chip and Stone.

    HAHAHAHAHA. Who had Soler as their pick for best of the first wave? Unless you count Bryant and/or Russell in the first wave then it's TBD. Not that it was based on me being actually informed, but he's always been my jam outside of injury fears.
  5. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, but you were posting like you were delirious last night so that was probably happening a lot.

    From the comments: The whole thing couldn't be more condescending (you were impressed with Soler's "maturity" because of a single game of AB's?), it inexplicably includes Watkins like anyone gives a [expletive], and it just regurgitates Kaplan's ramblings that the younger players are apparently the mental equivalent of babies who are just going to blindly follow whatever worst example they see to the hilt instead of, y'know, BEING THE TALENTED BASEBALL PLAYERS THEY ARE.

    Huh? Is he invisible to the camera or something? When he screws up it's on TV just like Castro's. Yep, he's on TV all right. But again, they're not nearly as obvious. Rizzo's never been isolated on camera making his mistakes like Starlin. Rizzo: http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110304192215/arresteddevelopment/images/d/d0/Buster_at_the_Milford_School.JPG Nice. He does seem like the motherboy type.

Rizzo's never been isolated on camera making his mistakes like Starlin. Of course he has. I think he means the ten million camera shots after said mistakes focusing on the player...in the field, in the dugout...just pushing the narrative In that case, yeah, obviously, people miss out because they aren't replayed and discussed ad nauseum.

    On the other hand... https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=starlin%20castro%20gaffe Do a search for "Anthony Rizzo gaffe" and here's the second result:

    Not a single person here has said Castro didn't screw up tonight.

    Len is awesome, but he's not perfect. His word isn't the final say on anything.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    Kaplan just has no idea of perspective; everyone was annoyed over what happened, but he has no idea how to express something like that without going off the deep end. Even Hollandsworth seemed put off by it and was defending Castro a couple times after the game. Again, Castro made a mistake. Nobody is saying he's blameless, but Kaplan is providing a textbook example of how people flip out WAY too much over him when he makes a mistake.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    I hope it doesn't bug them. All I know is that it annoys the piss out of me. I don't think being some kind of playoff hero would end this unless he won them the WS in walkoff fashion and then immediately retired.
  23. Sammy Sofa
    Like people are saying, it's not that he doesn't make mistakes, but it's that the few times he makes genuine big mistakes, like the incident above, ends up blowing up EVERY mistake or maybe-mistake being a big deal regardless of how common or harmless it is. Take Kaplan and Hollandsworth right now; I'm pissed that Starlin watched his hit, but that happens. It's not unique to him, a ton of players do it and it's not going to go away. Benching him isn't going to stop it, yet these two are ranting like it's some kind of crippling issue that's going to infect the other players and "someone needs to act." It's an absurd overreaction to something frustrating but ultimately not a serious issue. He shouldn't have to do something Herculean like carrying the Cubs to the playoffs or beyond to simply be evaluated like most other players are.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Does Hollandsworth talk more about Soler or Castro?
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Hahahaah! Chapman slapping Baez' ass as he heads off the field.
