    And then Baez makes an insane play at 2B yesterday against the indians. He actually got to the ball on the shortstop side of 2b (in the outfield grass) and got the batter by like 3 steps.

    I'm pretty sold on Eloy after seeing him swing the bat like three times. He has such a short swing for such a big-ass dude

    heyward's swing looks no different. it may even be worse bc he starts in his new stance then goes back to his old stance during the delivery
  4. imb
    this is the right answer

    Zobrist had a .401 OBP against LHP last year so guessing its Zobrist (LF) (.856 OPS against LHP) Bryant (1.060 OPS against LHP) Rizzo (.832 OPS against LHP) Russell (.801 OPS against LHP) Contreras (.854 ops against LHP) Baez (.850 OPS against LHP) Heyward (.586 ops against LHP but he gloves in so many runs) Almora (.827 ops against LHP in 43 PA) Pitcher Maybe flip Russell and Contreras and Almora and Heyward (though lol that's tough on Heyward) So basically you don't want to use a LHP against us.

    i know it's at night there's wind it's cold etc but i will never figure out how that ball is not still in the air. it should be in the lake somewhere. i feel like the matrix glitched and we're all like oh yeah sure the wind blew it back i totally get it while we know we're actually in a simulation and something went wrong on us

    I'm aware. Just saying they shouldn't be called Organizational Talent Rankings. it's in the "minor league" section of baseball america, what did you expect they would be talking about there

    Anthony Morrow is a cool ass dude. I wrote about these two guys here who were convicted of murder as teens, only it turned out they didnt do it. Spent 22 years in prison. We covered the case, and eventually the guy who committed the murder (he was on death row for another murder) finally came clean. Anyway, I spent a lot of time with those guys after they got out, and every time I interviewed them they'd say "dude we just wanna go to a Thunder game, we just wanna see russell westbrook." Every time. So anyway I was like let's just call the thunder. Eventually our request to get them courtside to a game made it to Presti and he took an interest. Finally they told us they were going to give the guys courtside seats to the christmas day game, and their own uniforms and stuff, and let them come watch shootaround. And it was anthony morrow who called them to tell them the surprise. The thunder said they asked the players and morrow jumped at the chance. https://www.readfrontier.org/stories/after-20-years-behind-bars-exonerees-treated-to-thunder-game/ http://www.nba.com/thunder/video/exonerated-161230

    Reporter: "Miguel, you had a bit of a falling out with Maddon, but you were recently spotting having drinks together and smiling. How would you sum up your relationship with your coach at this point?" Miguel: http://i.giphy.com/ryhl9BWIIWEc8.gif

    this is hysterical. Can we team him up with Lester?
  17. imb
    Yeah that was the best part. last year's "prank" was dumb. "hey guys i think that's kris bryant." *5 more minutes passes* "hey kris wow u got us." But this one actually was funny
  18. imb
    the only way this thread title makes sense is if youre talking about over the life of the contract
  19. imb

  23. imb
    i dont recall this at all, how awesome
  24. imb
    pitchers strike out so fast it really helps the pace of play. he'll probably just abolish the AL DH instead
  25. imb
    Yes, exactly. Plus if you start an inning with a guy at second, arent you just gonna IBB the next dude to set up a double play? I doubt this lasts through this season.
