  1. [expletive], Baez has FINALLY filled the Castro-sized hole in my heart and I will not have this ruined by LOGIC.
  2. 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.
  3. He really is quite Maddux-y.
  4. La Stella is terrifying in literally every pic so far. He's one of those nasty leopard seals:
  5. God, La Stella really does look like he's barking for a delicious fish.
  6. Even though those Mother's Day colors always make me think I'm having a stroke for a second.
  7. Those are cool, but I want as much of the team as possible.
  8. Someone find a nice, giant version of Baez coming home. I need to finally replace my desktop of Bryant doing the same.
  9. 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.
  10. There were several times I was wishing he was manning 2B instead of Zobrist today. Zobrist is still pretty damn awesome offensively, but it's often pretty glaring how limited he is defensively at times. I was thinking this on a double play missed earlier on the replay. Javy would have turned that. And then the one(?) they did turn seemed a bit more nervewracking than it had to be; Zobrist just seemed like he was in slow motion compared to Baez.
  11. Much, much better.
  12. There were several times I was wishing he was manning 2B instead of Zobrist today. Zobrist is still pretty damn awesome offensively, but it's often pretty glaring how limited he is defensively at times.
  13. I wanted him to be the hero today so badly I feel like I willed it to happen. The dong didn't even seem like a surprise. Just destiny.
  14. Whoa. [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet] http://coach2roar.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/canstockphoto9550599_seal.jpg So this Cesar Vargas guy... http://mlb.mlb.com/images/players/525x330/alt/570714.jpg ...he's been pretty good so far, and he looks like he knows it. People seem to hate making good contact against him, which makes him ripe for a humblin'. The Cubs have both their own Cesar guy AND a starter with a deer suit: http://www.trbimg.com/img-57277887/turbine/chi-lester-ct0038171664-20160501/1050/1050x591 No contest. Go Cubs! http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VXT5L-9GuL0/UeAAuHDfbyI/AAAAAAAAsUU/6zf5vIA9SYc/s1600/biting.gif
  15. Maaaaaaaaybe I'll leave to go see my mom a bit early.
  16. Nevermind that Contreras would have likely been as bad behind the plate, if not worse. It's a weird crusade he's on. How do you figure that? Screw you guys, what's the point of arguing. Because he's basically been described as a work in progress at best right now defensively. I agree, there's no point in arguing that it would have been worth bringing him up for two weeks.
  17. They didn't really have a choice, they lost 2 catchers in a row. Sometimes you have to use replacement level players. He's just mad that Contreras wasn't called up. Nevermind that Contreras would have likely been as bad behind the plate, if not worse. It's a weird crusade he's on.
  18. Meh; Derwood's just salty over anyone who can post in a game thread.
