  1. That's a scenario from one of those books of weird baseball situations that I used to have in the bathroom before smartphone were a thing. Stunningly, I knew this rule already like it was common knowledge. Go figure.
  2. http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--L0cm49SO--/c_scale,fl_progressive,q_80,w_800/cjxydktbzhcpcu2c3glw.jpg
  3. This is some goofy horsefeathers, even for the (temporarily hot) Marlins: http://m.mlb.com/video/topic/6479266/v676503183/milmia-realmuto-homer-challenged-ruled-rbi-single
  4. The eat all of the dogs they bring to the games.
  5. Ah, yes, of course. I'm sure that was your best effort. Your sig pic is more perfectly fitting than you could ever possibly know.
  6. Have you not seen this team? They didn't carry that meme over.
  7. I was trying to be polite. I mean, you're basically asking if a baseball team can become nigh-unbeatable within the sample size of a playoff series. It's this close to asking if magic can be real.
  8. This is kinda like asking if an Olympic long jumper has a chance to fly if he keeps breaking long jumping records.
  9. How could they NOT be a crapshoot? Basically nobody is that good. Even if the Cubs keep being insane and win a ridiculous amount of games they're stilling going to lose, like, 45-55 games. They only have to lose 3 more to get bounced from the playoffs in the first round.
  10. Of course. I mean...how could they not be? This is a really odd question.
  11. While I hate that he's out for the season, I love that he's lurking as this unavoidable, TERRIFYING threat for the rest of baseball next year. Like, "oh, you thought they were good BEFORE?"
  12. I don't see the Brewers (or anyone) likely taking Granderson unless money's coming with him since he's signed through next year. I'm not suggesting Granderson for Braun. I think an arm and a prospect would do it, and New York benefits from that. If you're thinking about potentially using a DH in the World Series, does that 6th rotation arm help you more than Braun? But again, the Mets are broke and cheap.
  13. I'd like to think that in my sig Baez' face actually looks perplexed as he stares at Hendricks and thinks, "who the horsefeathers is that?!?"
  14. Well....it is. Especially if it's Maddux. I may also be swayed by the tarp slide, my boyhood idolization of him and the persona they created for him on The Dugout as the world's biggest Fresh Prince superfan.
  15. [expletive], Baez has FINALLY filled the Castro-sized hole in my heart and I will not have this ruined by LOGIC.
  16. The Mets have Conforto-Cespedes-Granderson in the OF, why would they trade for Braun? Plus their owners are cheap and/or broke, they wouldn't take on his contract. Lol, Granderson is OPS'ing .722 and is 35 years old. Maybe that's why? I don't see the Brewers (or anyone) likely taking Granderson unless money's coming with him since he's signed through next year.
  17. He really is quite Maddux-y.
  18. La Stella is terrifying in literally every pic so far. He's one of those nasty leopard seals:
  19. God, La Stella really does look like he's barking for a delicious fish.
  20. Even though those Mother's Day colors always make me think I'm having a stroke for a second.
  21. Those are cool, but I want as much of the team as possible.
  22. Someone find a nice, giant version of Baez coming home. I need to finally replace my desktop of Bryant doing the same.
  23. I'd be very, very pleased if he made those mini-Sammy hops a thing. I was also over at my mom's place watching the game with her, and she actually thought his MLB logo tattoo was "cute," and this woman usually loathes tattoos. The world's gone topsy-turvy.
