Sarcasm?

He will fit right in on the Kansas football team

Please tell me this piece of [expletive] pitch track thing isn't going to be on the screen for the whole playoffs?!?!?!?!

Agreed, hopefully we get a extra DHs for 2nd basemen and catchers as well.

Theo's looking old.

The packers really are scummy aren't they?

At least he can see for miles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now sitting in third, and looking a lock for top 4.

Nice moment, but it pisses me off they wouldn't do the same for the likes of Aram, Zambrano, or Sosa.

Lake doesn't appear to understand that it is the outfielders ball if he can reach it.

I guess I just prefer to be entertained. Adding 20 minutes to a game for replay challenges isnt entertaining.

How is assuring the correct outcome on the field "awful?" Have you ever watched an NFL game? Most challenges take 5 minutes and 75% of them confirm the call on the field, and they most definitely do not "assure" a correct outcome.

You joke about it now, but for the longest time the home run was basically shunned as being "unsportsmanlike" and pitchers were expected to essentially always pitch entire games. Things change.

I guess we know who to blame for pitchers not being good hitters then.

Who decides how the game is supposed to be played? Me.

Strategy has nothing to do with it for me. I think adding the DH is like adding a shootout at the end of a hockey game. It's not how the game is supposed to be played.

This instant replay is going to be a disaster by the way. I guarantee everyone will be sick of it after a week, and it will add another 10 minutes to every game.

This is funny because I'd be willing to bet the Cubs have benefited more than anyone from the NL not having the DH in the last 10 seasons.

Hopefully they go to 9 designated hitters and 9 designated fielders, that will really help the Cubs win.

I love it, SSFC flopped their huge dick out in front of every league in europe. Not buying the whole "he will become a worse player by not (occasionally) playing in a top league".

I like how everyone is trying to overcompensate for all the people who treated him so "poorly."

That's a shame.

Apparently Scott Baker was working about 85 mph. 2.2 inn 6 H 3 BB 6 ER 36 strikes on 60 pitches
