  1. Votto that bend and kneel nonsense doesn't work for a fastball on the outside corner, don't be that guy
  2. Agreed, you just got out of the 7th inning for a team that's 15 games below .500 before Memorial Day, maybe cool the jets on trying to get in someone's face with the trash talk
  3. Victor it's okay that you're slow but please don't get caught making your last step to the base a half-step, that just makes things worse.
  4. I'm not gonna add it up, but it's 3-2 and I'm pretty sure the Cubs' OPS on the day is about 300 points higher
  5. Caratini has to tell him on that play, like JD said you don't have the luxury of checking on Votto and still getting Gennett.
  6. I think Votto's chest was in the strike zone by the end of that swing and miss
  7. I’m in a car listening on the radio and knew by the call of it, it seemed like a play where on TV live you think it’s an easy hit and then there’s slow ass Almora making it not even close. In fairness to Almora, he hesitated out of the box because it had a weird trajectory and somehow snuck under the pitcher's glove when it looked like an out off the bat.
  8. I appreciate the Reds' commitment to being extra bad at all aspects of the game, like their 2 throws to the plate which have missed by an average of 15 feet
  9. Maybe the most amazing line score I've ever seen
  10. It seems like the All-Star Break is a good starting point for DeJong's return. [tweet] [/tweet] Carpenter/Gyorko/Wong/Martinez would have to be the worst defensive infield in baseball.
  11. My main takeaway from that video is that the Galaxy affectionately call their USL team Los Dos, and that angers me deeply for reasons I don't entirely understand.
  12. Randy got to hang out in the MLB clubhouse for his birthday, what a neat present
  13. Garcia can play SS too, although I bet they'll be awfully tempted to try Gyorko considering they didn't have enough infield spots to go around before with Carpenter, Gyorko, Martinez, and Wong.
  14. I'm not sure about the translation of those combine tests. Jontay Porter cracked the top 5 in the shuttle run, and watching him play nearly 30 games he is...not explosive or laterally quick.
  15. This is less directed at you individually since lots of people do this, but what's the basis for saying that Naylor is or isn't going to stick at catcher? A few sentences from other articles? A youtube clip or two? I don't want to be a gatekeeper but I also don't think there's much to any of our prognostications about the development of high school draftees other than pure guesswork.
  16. Further evidence for my theory that Randy Quaid doesn't know that he's an actor.
  17. Silver lining of missing the world cup, picking our roster and starters given the injuries and lack of form would've been a nightmare! https://www.starsandstripesfc.com/2018/5/17/17365144/usmnt-world-cup-roster-selection-difficult-decision
  18. I still have a hard time grasping that a guy who looks like next-gen Juan Uribe is that good at the plate.
