I don't care if he took steroids, I will forever love him for having a mural of himself as a centaur in his house A-Rod is both the weirdest and the best
-
Watching Prince's farewell conference, pretty touching. Dude was a likable guy even though he played on a rival for a long time. Sad situation. I also think A-Rod has gotten a raw deal pretty much throughout his career and the way this is ending is pretty ugly and silly. Dude is 5x the player Jeter was and he's getting mad disrespected on his way out. Its silly.

How [expletive] unlucky would we be to suffer two ACL injuries in a year, in a sport where they rarely occur? I guess we've been blessed to have basically no major injuries to our starting staff for 2 years running, knock on wood
-
oh thats not good
-
Addy's got that clutch magic this year
-
Nicely done
-
his numbers aren't decent My gut is always right
-
Edwards might not make it out of this unscathed but striking out Trout in that situation makes him the horsefeathering man
-
Btw I kinda hate Travis Wood I don't care if his numbers are decent
-
I can't watch the game but watching the highlight of Trout catching that Baez drive and reading how many line outs the Cubs are hitting makes it seem like the Cubs are making a crapload of good contact at the wrong spots
-
It's time to engage back-up mini Super Bullpen right
-
Don't look now but Jason Hammel has his ERA under 3 again
-
It is top notch annoying Jason Hammel to walk the pitcher on 4 pitches
-
I didn't realize Geovany Soto was still an active MLB player
-
Schwarber: Fully torn ACL and LCL. Out for 172 meaningless games.

I desperately want him on the playoff roster for some pinch hit/DH at bats but I also know there is 0% chance that happens -
Oh he's definitely a perfect White Sox
-
can we just get the season stats of the likely hitters + starting pitcher rather than that stuff or am i walking into some sort of unspoken inside joke meme that i dont know about
-
Remember it's not just the park and the flight of the ball that changes, but pitchers breaking stuff. From what I remember, Coors significantly depresses the drop that breaking pitches have, so Rockies hitters can adjust to what "seems" right at home and then be totally baffled when they go to everywhere else in America and its completely different. I feel bad for pitchers coming up in the Rockies system more than anything.
-
Wow I had no idea the Coors effect was getting even more stark with the years. I thought they were making progress with the humidors and balls, but clearly not.
-
I'm mad I can't get Utz chips in Chicago
-
It's a totally arbitrary statistical milestone, but I do want to see this team win 100 games. 30-21 the rest of the way would get that. Also, I feel like this team should win more games than last years team, because its so much better.
-
12 games up
-
The Reds now have a 3 run lead in the 8th, is 3 runs Reds-Bullpen-Proof? We shall see

Oh neat, my co-worker got a song of his to debut on the bumper music and Len gave him a shout out -
