  1. I think I counted off five full seconds between him saying "slider in the dirt" and explaining that the batter had swung and was out. ahahahaha I'm in a car, wtf was that and why is Pat not doing play by play when he's in the booth? i have no clue why they are doing that but it's awful He's soooooooo bad

  3. IDK if this deserves its own thread, but Brandon McCarthy has a torn UCL. Done for year, F PITCHERS. He will have more time to tweet now
  4. Are you suggesting playing him instead of Fowler? Cause that's a bad idea. Guessing he's asking for if Fowler still is a little hurt and they plan to rest him maybe day after night game coming up and/or if he aggrivates it mid game
  5. I agree, but the pitchers getting hurt thing (especially well known ones) is what will bring the discussion about actually doing it to the table.
  6. Just do it already, Wainwright done for the year, Scherzer is missing his next start because he bruised his thumb batting. http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/12769662/max-scherzer-injured-batting-advocates-designated-hitter-rule-national-league
  7. It's been a thing for 14 years Thanks, Bin Laden
  8. What people don't know is Joe is having the pitchers work for 10 minutes a day on hitting
  9. Maybe spend 10 minutes a day on hitting instead of changing the rules of the game. Just spitballing. NO
  10. Looks like John Rocker is doing well..... http://cdn.barstoolsports.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Screen-Shot-2015-04-26-at-10.52.46-AM.png?656c67
  11. He's the level of pitcher and the Cardinals are the team to carry the water to petition for an NL DH now with him getting hurt while batting last night
  12. Sucks this wasn't a night game, like most Saturday games seem to be everywhere but Wrigley and/or if it's a national broadcast game (which this wasn't).
  13. I understand the official score is a sacrifice in the situation the runner advanced and he was out, but is it possible he tried to bunt for a hit?
  14. There isn't much for that (how rare do you see even someone like Brandon Finnegan?). You could take Carson Fulmer (Vandy) or Tyler Jay (Illinois) and move them to the pen immediately but they'll have thrown a lot of innings already when they're drafted. Amongst college closers, Riley Ferrell (TCU) and Ryan Burr (Arizona State) are the best. Probably more second round guys. I wouldn't bet on any of those four making it to the bigs this season. It's not a good strategy. Wait for Grimm and Ramirez to get healthy, get Rafael Soriano, hope the switch turns on for Edwards/Rivero and/or trade for a pen arm. Lot easier and a lot better usage of your assets. That's what I figured, but since we are good I wanted to be a little optimistic
  15. Usually one of the beat writers, Brett, or AZPhil will tweet or post something about guys down there. Especially important ones like Baez
  16. Ventura hit Abreu prior to this, fwiw, it didn't seem intentional though
  17. Wouldn't we be looking at a pretty small sample at this point, like 5-6 games at each spot at most? Though over the course of the year, yes I am definitely interested.
  18. We have the Royals at home for 3 games the last weekend of May, FYI
  19. :shock: http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--xOqUXSyU--/c_fit,fl_progressive,q_80,w_636/qzuaeqw03mqf3edc5xqh.jpg
