    Shelby Miller (pitcher) playing OF for Diamondbacks in extra innings
  • Ironman92
    Lol, Jays lose because Tulo tried to stall the fielder on a hit and the ball hit him to end the game
  • slingshot4ever
    White Sox are on fire as of late.

    Impressive that they're doing it without clubhouse leader and team mascot Drake Laroche.
  • Ironman92
    Chris Sale 5-0
  • Ironman92
    Cueto complete game shutout and is now 4-1

    Astros fluky start, or regressing to the mean after a fluky 2015?

    Flat out had the Royals beat last postseason

    It's too early to say. If they finish with 76 wins then maybe so.

    Their starters wont continue to be this bad, but I'm still not sold on that lineup. The bottom half is pretty ehhh. Could never buy into them last year even after they made the playoffs.

    I knew Atlanta sucked, but I didn't know how badly as far as power goes until I read this morning that Cutch had as many homers in last night's game as they've had all season. That's just unreal to only have 3 through 20 or so games. And makes me laugh at the "Reds are 30/30 in MLB" stuff that was going on last week. They might be down right now due to how young they are, but Atlanta's on a whole different level.

    Just crazy... would have never guessed it. I've always liked Dee Gordon even before he came to the Marlins. Sucks that he can't play in the postseason if the Marlins can continue to turn things around and make it there.

    Can't play in the postseason? Didn't hear that part of it.

    Yeah, when they upped the penalties a year or two ago they added in a postseason ban if you serve a suspension during that season.
  • wildcats20
    Penalties still aren't severe enough.

    It needs to be 1 and done, IMO. Only way guys are gonna stop. Well, most. Some will do it and pray they don't get caught.
  • Ironman92
    Well Cespedes and the Mets had a decent 3rd inning. Mets scored 12 and Cespedes knocked in 6 of them.
  • Ironman92
    Conley for Marlins has a no no thru 7
  • Ironman92
    Bullshit Mattingly. God I hate some aspects of how the game has changed.

    He was still hitting spots and looking good. Fuck the pitch count.
  • Ironman92
    Fucking karma. Marlins just lost a no hitter in the 9th on a bloop ass hit the 2nd baseman couldn't get to.....Dee Gordon gets to it but a day late

    When I heard he was from WCH, I was wondering if he was related to Jeff Shaw.
