It’s official. Universal DH. What we thinking?
Let’s go Yanks.
-
I like it. Could Extend careers and give more guys jobs.
Not sure i agree with banning the shift though.
I’m thinking correa will end up on the cubbies. Godspeed, sir.
Go cheatstros 8)
-
I can’t fucking wait. So stoked. Missing baseball so fucking much. All the moves make sense to me.
9 inning double headers and no man on second in extras? Banning the shift? Unless I read it wrong earlier these are the right moves. Universal DH is great too. Fuck a robot ump as well. I like managers and umpires arguing and fucking full baseball brawls. Let’s go Os!
-
Go padres. Maybe this year will be the one my heart isn't smashed into a million pieces

This thread is how I learned the lockout was over. 8) 8) 8)

miguel cabrera is lined up for hit number 3000 today as the tigers play against the yankees
can't wait to see that as it is a very impressive feat that might not be repeated for a long time
-
I think there’s a few guys who could snag 3k, but yeah with the strikeout rate what it is now 3k is gradually getting more rare.
I think Miggy’s triple crown is more impressive to me. Now that’s something we may never see again.

i don't know, most (veteran) players that could be considered for the 3000 hits run are pretty far and they are not getting younger either
https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/H_active.shtml
but yeah, you're absolutely right
a batting triple crown is so impressive, especially in our era
-
You’re right though! i just looked it up… i thought maybe the usual suspects would be closer Votto, Altuve, Trout etc. Miggy and Pujols only active players that will achieve it. Robinson Cano might have a shot, but seems unlikely. Maybe if he DHs..
Guess the Emphasis on home runs and such now. Defensive shifts. Makes me miss guys like Ichiro…
-
well, he didn't get his hit today hahaha
aaron boone wasn't feeling like it and my boy got walked
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwONRvabGfA
and yeah, ichiro was such a great player
got a fascination for japanese baseball players and as a cubs fan, we got seiya suzuki this year and he's been amazing so far!
-
I was just about to post that and tag you lol
I cannot stand the Yankees. Even more so Boone. Glad they lost.

hahaha always happy to see the yankees lose too
only player i root for on that team is anthony rizzo
i really don't hate players in general but seeing gerrit cole being absolute dogshit on the mound at the start of this season made me feel happy inside - nice way to live up to the expectations that come with this massive and ridiculous contract
he'll probably pick it up and become dominant again rather sooner than later though
-
Hope Pujols gets to 700 hr

The lone Astros fan (i know i know) so hearing Cole throw a hissy fit over a 4 minute delayed start is hilarious… big ass contract at the cost of being the ace for the pinstripes with all that pressure..
Plus the banning of sticky stuff. Framber Valdez is another guy who honestly hasn’t been the same since.

I like it. I have no idea why you would have different rules for the two leagues if they play each other. As a Twins fans, fuck the Yankees lol.

yeah, absolutely - that trevor bauer scumbag was also significantly better with sticky things on his hand

Cleveland "Guardians"? Wtf? Cleveland really shit the bed here. "Steamers" is the only acceptable name change I see. I would've bought their merch for sure.
-
i don’t mind the guardians name and the G logo aint bad.. should’ve just been the cleveland G’s really..
plus they got stephen kwan who didnt swing and miss for like a week.
kind of blown away that aroldis chapman is still throwing absolute heat after all these years.

super happy for miggy, at least he got to do it in detroit - that embrace with iglesias was so pure hahaha
and yeah, albert pujols is an absolute beast, glad the cards took him back to finish his career there

I help coach my kid’s little league team. We’re the Rockies. Our head coach is from Cleveland and wears a wahoo hat religiously. Not about that guardian life. I’m a lifelong giants fan tho and we’re going to the A’s game tomorrow for little league day. Kid is confused to say the least, but understands this is a giants house. I love baseball. I played up until high school and stopped for skateboarding and smoking weed, but now I’m more into it than both of those things as I’m turning 40. I just put together a pitch back in our back yard and I’m throwing more than my kid.

sorry for the tmz post but maybe bauer's not a scumbag after all - he must be confident that he was defamed to sue this woman like that
abuse against women is among the worst things a human being can do and it always makes my blood boil but i'll be the first one to eat my words if he's not found guilty - let's see how that pans out for him
also the cubs had their biggest shutout victory ever against the pirates last weekend, that was fun to watch

Raised by die hard Giants fans the family group chat was bashing Joc Pederson once we got him from the Dodgers, but he's been a saving grace as a batter more than enough times for that opinion to do a full 180!
Personally I was always glad to have him on, go Giants.
-
watched reid detmers throw a no hitter for the angels last night, they sweeped tampa bay 12-0. was awesome watching some history in the making
rendon also hit a left handed home run just fucking around. nuts
not the biggest baseball fan but gonna try to watch more games this season. angels are lookin good
-
With only 2 punch outs i think? even crazier. The Rays ain’t no scrub team neither…
Verlander was 5 outs away from one as well. Damn near 40 years old coming off tommy John.

I finally made it back out to the stadium. I sure missed this.

Honorable mention, Tony Kemp’s no bases on bunt against the Twins Tuesday night. True G in the game, bunt legend.

Love my dodgers. Went to this game last summer. (https://www.truebluela.com/2021/7/11/22572043/los-angeles-dodgers-records-runs-scored-home-runs-dodger-stadium-blowout) It was right when people were starting to go out, I think mask stuff or gathering were just being lifted. The crowd was so excited, and during the game, there were so many fucking homeruns/scoring/grand slams going on that you would miss something as you turned to talk to your friends about what had just happened last. It was like it was 1999 and Stone Cold came out with beer and serving up stunners for 9 innings straight, everyone in the crowd was going nuts and it was what a ton of people needed right then.

I went to dodgers vs giants a few weeks back and it was so fun. not a dodgers fan really(angels) but the atmosphere at game was just way better than an angels game, plus they smoked the giants. I hadn't been to a dodger's game since I was maybe 10 years old sitting in the pavillion wooden bench seats when they still served alcohol in that section and there was constantly fights lol. biggest hang up is dodgers stadium is a fuckin nightmare getting into/exiting even using the new free shuttle from union station

Let’s not forget when Robbie D threw the first pitch in some flamed up DC moon stompers.

mike trout has scored his 1000 career run tonight and the angels are goddamn fun to watch this year!
edit: the angels have gone to shit now, that's crazy

My whole life outside of the 98 season has been mediocrity. I've never once seriously thought we could win a world series until this week. Inshallah the padres will break the SD curse
-
Giving up prospects always hurts, but having a shot at winning a World Series > trading your #1-25 prospects IMO… some may never even pan out. Ok Maybe your #1 would suck ha…
Still 1.5 or 2 years whatever it is rental of Soto you do it. Now he’s probably extra juiced to go to a winning team too…
Seattle gave up a ton for Castillo.. may not even make the playoffs. Again both clubs kudos for going all in.

you're right but they gave up some really good guys to the nationals, both teams have improved drastically here
i would've done the same for a player like juan soto, though - he really is a beast and that padres lineup looks stacked as hell with him in it now
-
Yeah i mean nats could be set in 5-10 years…
but they’ve also had Harper, Turner, Rendon, Scherzer, and now Soto. Im just saying Padres have a team for the now. Soto could be the missing piece who knows…
I look at like the Rockies or the d backs who seem to be in development hell. Detroit somewhat too…
Shit the Astros have Forrest Whitley who is/was supposed to be a lights out pitcher. Taken high in the draft years ago. Kid just can’t stay healthy.
-
Everything changed when tatis did the double jump. Go padres

i didn't look at it like that but that's true, rendon and harper are both injury prone and the latter wasn't with the team anymore when they won their world series in 2019
i mean even stephen strasburg was drafted first overall by the nats, used to be so good but he has been a shell of himself since he got his big contract mainly due to injury, just seems that they really aren't lucky
hopefully history doesn't repeat itself in dc and they can build a decent roster in the years to come
yeah, it's a literal lottery sometimes, you see players like mookie betts being taken in the fifth round that become absolute superstars
hell, wade boggs and albert pujols were selected in super late rounds so you never know what you're gonna get
most of the players they got in the trade really seem to be very good though, especially abrams and wood
-
Yeah for sure. That Jones kid drafted 1 or 2 is already hurt out for the season.
But I was just pointing out the talent the nats have had…Castillo to Seattle now that was an overpay. That’s gonna hurt. Especially if Castillo walks…
I wonder if Seattle offered that same package for Soto…
@DaleSr an Owner and GM swinging for the fences gotta love it. Plus getting Hosmers contract off the books. I’m jelly

sorry got all excited to talk baseball for a bit
castillo to seattle will only work if they can make the playoffs this year, i guess - they really need it, twenty one years with no playoffs appearance is way too much
sacrificing a player like noelvi marte probably wasn't the best move to pull though

Any Seattle fans here? Fucking amazing comeback. That's gonna give them some forward momentum (they'll need it against Houston).
SD whooping up on NY last night was awesome, and even sweeter that they jumped all over phony-ass Scherzer. Finish them off tonight, PLEASE.

Nope...but a Jays fan who could not believe Mayza gave up 4 runs on 3 pitches to start perhaps the biggest choke job ever (must have been taking notes from the Leafs). Up 8-1 at home and lose 9-10? My gawd was I pissed, and my son was dumbfounded. Our bullpen comes in throwing low 90s...Seattle's high 90s to 100. Huge difference at that level. Both Vladdy and Manoah need to talk less unless they can back it up in the playoffs. Scattered reply but hard to be clear and concise with that gongshow.
And...my Dad (ex baseball ump) is a Yankees fan so I'll get to hear it disected in great detail as it's Canadian Thanksgiving weekend and we're hosting. Fun times.

did your pops ump in the majors ? That’s sick..
Seeing that collision bummed me out… i was very sad when George left. He’s got that Griffey-itis crash into the wall, Dive, slide whatever it takes to catch the ball…
I thought he was gonna play it off the bounce.. maybe only a run would’ve scored. But when bichette came into frame, it felt like slow motion. Baseball can be a cruel mfer..
-
Yeah that collision was harsh.
At first I thought it was some kind of Major League-esque fuck up, but it was an extremely tough play… two dudes running full speed; some bad luck and a perfectly placed hit. Hope Springer is ok.
Goddamnit San Diego don’t blow this.
-
get ready for a mariners and phillies world series
-
I’m so fucking mad the Jays blew an 8-1 lead and ended up losing last night. Hell of a game though.
I’m particularly mad at Bo for going for a play he had no business trying and hurting Springer in the process, that’s exactly how I got my first concussion wheb I played Little League.

Nope. He never went that high as an ump - some Canadian minor league and was Umpire in Chief for a large Ontario district for over 20 years. He would do training clinics with MLB Umpires every 3 years or so to keep his high level accreditation when we were younger. He knows and loves the game...but he's already called me today to tell me the "3 things that cost the Jays the game" as he couldn't wait until tomorrow when he's coming over, even though he'll tell me all over again.
Totally agree. Thought Springer would trap it and keep the ball in front of him and we'd still be up....but then again I also thought Bass would lock it down after that - so what the hell do I know.
Mets and Rays gone too. Didn't see any of this happening.
-
As a hardcore Angels fan for 40+ years I can honestly say, FUCK THE ANGELS
-
Well.. the Cards out with a lackluster performance from multiple guys (but mostly staring at you Paul Goldshit)... I'll probably watch the Guardians vs the Yankees, hope the Mariners slay the Astros. Would be nice to see Seattle vs either NY or CLE. On the NL side... would prefer the Phils vs the Padres.

@DaleSr The good thing is that in the Padres vs. Dodgers competition, either way, California wins. That said, I respectfully, RESPECTFULLY, have to support my Dodgers. Born in LA county so I can't front on my set. If LA didn't lose Seager, I think this post-season would be different. For whatever reason, when playing baseball as a kid, the team I was on was the Dodgers for multiple years. During that period of time, my favorite player was Mike Piazza. Why you might ask? His name looked like the word "pizza". I subconsciously appreciated his facial hair, similar to how Brian Anderson was into Bluto as a child. However, whereas Brian got into Bears as an adult, I just overeat pizza. I will have to look and see if I can pull up a childhood photo with my Dodgers regalia.
EDIT: Mookie is a REALLY great player. It also so happens that the first Pug I got to name I chose the name Mookie, because of Mookie Blaylock (it was the mid 90s). So, there is a tangential Pug-factor at play (in my mind).
-
Making a pitching change in the middle of the lineup right after the pitcher got a strike out?! WTF Dodgers...
-
The Dodgers deserve to lose this series playing like this, but more importantly, being MANAGED like this. Bad decisions made. Let me remind you, they ARE THE REIGNING WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS. What a clusterfuck

Agree about the over management, it’s a nightmare.
…but the Braves won last year.

Not in the Judeo-Christian sense. Also, I am joking. As with most sports fans, I pick what supports my narrative for the teams in my immediate local. If my team doesn't win, I block it from my memory, like being touched by a preacher.

EDIT: Mookie is a REALLY great player. It also so happens that the first Pug I got to name I chose the name Mookie, because of Mookie Blaylock (it was the mid 90s). So, there is a tangential Pug-factor at play (in my mind).
That was a lovely story pug.

Fuck the Dodgers
Let's FUCKING GOOOOOOO SAN DIEGOOOOOOO
I've been waiting my whole fucking life to see that shit and it felt incredible.
I FUCKING LOVE HA SEONG KIM

FUCKING LOVE IT. Another poor pitching decision, another Dodgers playoff loss From a Giants fan, CONGRATS SAN DIEGO. Bring the trophy back to Cali!
Yankees one loss away... please please please Cleveland. Bring out Charlie Sheen to throw the first pitch and end this shit.
Happy to see Atlanta gone (although i truly thought they were gonna bowl over the NL). We don't have to see that racist-ass chant the whole post-season.

Rough night for the Yanks last night, one strike away and they blew it. If the Yanks can't win this series, I hope the Guardians take out the Astros.
Also congrats to SD on a huge win over the Dodgers. I really didn't see that happening. They're my hope for taking it all if the Yanks are out.

Never thought I’d say anything positive about Yankee fans but “props” for giving Ted Cruz loads of shit last night at the game.
Go Philly.

Fckin hell… Another hot NL East team… Phillies 1-9 are all mashers. A team designed to torch the Astros pitching. Can’t say I’m shocked.

I'm feeling much better about my friars getting torched by their hitters

He can wear all the Astros gear he wants (it’s his hometown after all), just get us that Lombardi Trophy.

Sorry to Philly. Two national champs lost in a day. MLS one had to hurt

Congrats @whitemanjazz

I'm happy for Dusty, but overall blech.
The fuck was Kyle Schwarber doing bunting with nobody on base, down 0-2 in the 8th inning?
-
I’m bummed because the Phils totally could’ve won if they just had average offense in the past 3 games. They turned back into a pumpkin. It was a wild ride and I’ll remember it forever, but their offense completely broke down. 3 runs in 3 games.
-
Phils not winning is good news for the economy though, if you’ve seen that meme
