  1. How are they going to justify giving someone else the gold glove at second base this year?
  2. I think a little part of Javy's soul died when he took that walk.
  3. That sounds like a good way to get fired. Not to worry though, I'm sure umpiring experience is in high demand in corporate America. The umpire union is air tight. No one gets fired
  4. 60 Minutes did a thing on the automated strike zone a few months ago and they talked with some recently retired ump (I think, or older current ump) and he basically said umps throw away their game report card after the games that show the calls they missed using Pitch Fx data without even looking at it. If you google 60 min strike zone automation I'm sure you can find the clip. Real Sports did a story on this too. The umps said they get sent a DVD of their good and bad calls and they throw them away without looking at them. And they said that if they were given an ear piece with someone giving them instant PitchFX ball/strike calls, they'd ignore it and call their own game. Umps continue to be awful in ever way
  5. They reject pitchFX out of hand
  6. Dong is....(sing it with me)...WHAT I GOT
  7. Why does anyone affiliated with sports in any way wear suits? I hate it always
  8. Jay, Russell, Baez and Almora in the same lineup? Bold move, Cotton
  9. 1 ER over 5 2/3 from Butler? I'm not questioning it
  10. Interesting choice for Kelly Crull to not brush her hair tonight
  11. Maybe if you're lucky you will witness the triumphant return of Brett Anderson
  12. Sorry. I did miss this. It's been added as of the day it was originally requested. You've earned +1 HR since that transaction. Your team total went from 114 to 115. Done and done. This is your first transaction of the first half. You have one remaining. I'll take it
  13. He has lost a lot of players recently, so not super surprised by the timing, though it totally screws the program for next year
  14. That's not the worst lineup ever. I wonder how many unique lineups Joe has trotted out this year? (we miss you Fred)
  15. I didn't see confirmation of my last roster move
  16. ESPN has so much faith in Dexter tying this that they're running the credits during his at bat
  17. How much of the bird does that get you?
  18. Are we sure Piscotty isn't on our payroll? He's trying his best to destroy his own team
  19. Probably still gets drafted by LA, but damn, I'd pay good, good, good money for this to be LaVar (who is a terrible, terrible parent) on Draft Night: He deserves to be drafted by the Kings
