Dood...that was slick! Happ for full-time 3B while MVP is out. -
Wow. On cue.

Let's close this one out for Yosh. (He died at age 97 today.)

What a big-boy AB from Rizzo there. His best of the season that didn't end in a HR?

I was looking for something along the lines of the Cubs sucking and Maddona movie gifs, and ran into this:

I think anyone can complain about most anything, but depending on the circumstances you are either being very very silly or slightly silly, since this is baseball (which is a sport.)

So, lately Joe's bullpen management has been FAR from efficient. He really needs some inspiration. We all know about his love of Spanish reds by now, so I don't think its too much of a stretch to suggest putting him in an ACTUAL bull's pen. Couldn't hurt the team's ability to make good pitching replacement decisions no matter how it plays out. Anyhow, this is going to be the MLB debut of one Duane Underwood Jr. I've heard of him for a long while now, but I always kinda assumed the name was a pseudonym. Hopefully he has a little more deception in his pitches than Frodo up there did with his travel habits. My kids are refusing to stay in bed so I'm not going to be able to spend a lot of time to dream up a topical or appropriate gif theme apart from just saying: http://i.imgur.com/r54wtyV.gif (A League of Their Own stuff, Hanks gifs, movies that have Madonna or long urination scenes in them, whatever)

Totes. Let me put the kids to bed and I'm on it. It should only take 3 hours or so. -

Votto's reaction to LaStella's catch needs to be enshrined in he HOF

I dressed as the Human Being for Halloween a while back. The junk display issues are real.

I googled Joe to see what in the hell he was getting at with the Mona Lisa quote he had at the end of that ESPN article on the Cubs yesterday. Here it is. Only makes slightly more sense. https://www.nbcsports.com/chicago/video/joe-maddons-baseball-mona-lisa

I kind of doubt Joe even knows what year it is. He actually said this yesterday.

General Baseball Chit-Chat Thread
JudasIscariotTheBird replied to David's topic in General Baseball Talk
But...they don't let the amateurs play in majors... If you wanna see pitchers hit dingers, let them have a some kind of hitting competition during the all star break or something. ...they absolutely let amateurs play in majors. Not Aaron Rodgers amateurs or even Tony Romo amateurs, but amateurs all the same. -
General Baseball Chit-Chat Thread
JudasIscariotTheBird replied to David's topic in General Baseball Talk
Am I the only one that likes the pitchers hitting? If only because pitchers juicing home runs is really, really, extra cool. Wood, Z, Lester, and Arrieta hitting dingers are very fond memories in my brain. Here is my lame slippery slope argument: How long would it take after the DH is instituted league-wide until people are clamoring for shortstops to have their ABs covered by guys with Dadbods who can't field? 1) Pitchers occasionally hitting a homer doesn't make up for all the thousands of terrible AB's that we have to watch. 2) That is a very lame slippery slope argument. 1) I even enjoy the terrible ABs. It's entertaining in the same way Pro-Am tournaments are. 2) -

It’s clearly affecting him as he’s on pace for a 4.8 WAR season. Current fWAR: Contreras: 1.9 Posey: 1.7 Molina: 0.6 I think Molina owes Willy an apology.

On the bright side, this gave me the chance to see that gameday added a small amount of dirt getting shot into the air on a pitch in the dirt.

Yeah it's tough to compare it to another sports situation because it's 1) deliberately taking advantage of a rules loophole and 2) Golf specifically is self policing so nobody really looks for these kinds of loopholes, or at the very least, doesn't deliberately exploit them. What sport does not have people deliberately take advantage of rules loopholes? ...golf, ultimate frisbee, and too many others to list here?

He asked that question because he disgraced the game. I'm trying to think of a baseball parallel, and the best I can come up with is a pitcher starting his delivery to the plate without having his foot on the rubber, and then pretending like he just felt like dancing to try and avoid a balk...but its worse than that because golf likes to pretend its a gentleman's game. Phil pretended that he did this ON PURPOSE to take a 2 shot penalty. He's lying about that, but that is actually worse than just completely losing his cool and keeping his ball from rolling off the green. This is Happy Gilmore level of non sense. He really should have withdrawn from the tourney.

Right, I think you'll see a lot of players on the tour giving Phil flack for this. At the least he needs to apologize.
