    For anybody who doesn't remember, he was drafted as a college position player. 1B/OF. http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/ind/sports/m-basebl/auto_action/8682099.jpeg Oh my [expletive] god the cubs drafted Joe Don Baker.

    No [expletive]. What kinda bum gives up HRs to Giancarlo Stanton? DFA.

    Thanks, Logan. I was too lazy to link/gif it myself.

    Cespedes did it again. By which I mean he badly misplayed a ball and then made up for it with an outfield assist. I'm beginning to think that he is [expletive] up on purpose in order to show off his arm.

    Same reason I refuse to make terrible movies.

    Birmingham's starter tonight is Nick McCully. An argument could be made that he is the worst SP in the Southern League: Year Age ERA IP WHIP H9 HR9 BB9 SO9 2014 25 6.95 44.0 1.705 11.0 1.4 4.3 3.3 I shudder to think what harm Bryant might visit upon this poor fool.

    Fair distinction. Hatred withdrawn.

    Gooney and Mojo you are making me sympathize with Kyle and I hate you both for it.

    Observation: Everyone who calls in to radio post game shows sounds like Dr. Steve Brule. Also: http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/7990/croooowzt2.gif

    Dumb hot sports takes are dumb? Yup. Pretty much.

    MLB average BA from '39-'60 was .260. 2013 MLB average BA was .254. Edit: neely's post is a straw man argument in any case. Ted Williams career is far superior statistically to Ortiz's. No one is arguing that point. No one ever would.

    Bah. Fielder's choice out.

    Hmm. Bryant up second in the ninth inning of a 1R game. http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121219134513/glee/images/7/72/Jaejoong_popcorn.gif

    They shouldn't have pitched to him. HR #16.

    Nickname for durian? Oh god. It is now.

    After that single, Bryant's OPS is presently 1.117 (220 PA). Since 2000, only Giancarlo Stanton has posted a higher OPS in the Southern League (1.171, 240 PA, age 20, 2010). He just eclipsed Adam Dunn's 2001 (1.113, 168 PA, age 21).

    Jesus Christ, Bryant. Unretireable.
  22. MWV
    No [expletive]. HR number 15. Opposite field.

    I was figuring that dining area was for the players, but maybe you have it right. I thought the auditorium might be there for the players...like at the spring facility. Kinda fits with that thing Theo was talking about with wanting to operate like a football team in some ways. Could really be both (media and players), I guess. Player dining seems pretty clearly all the way to the left, near the pool table and ping pong table, and the kitchen. These sorts of bars are pretty standard in all newer stadiums, completely separate from the hoi polloi, and providing some sort of greater access to at least seeing the players. Did not know that. The idea of a bar with an open doorway to the dugout/clubhouse tunnel is insane to me. I guess I understand the desire to include an exclusive bar/restaurant in the stadium. The new Yankee stadium rather famously included a number of swanky drinking and dining options. Building it dugout/batting cage adjacent seems really weird, though.

    I'm sure they could put it up on one of the many video boards. This is standard procedure throughout the league. I'm all for "normal" bullpens.

    Javy slam.
