Around Baseball 2015

Moreland has had back to back multi homerun games wow

[Brownie19]

He made some big adjustments to his swing...mimics Josh Hamilton a bit....good for him, having a great year

[BTS]

I love Kris Budden

[BTS]

Is that the Padres sideline reporter girl? She is the best.

 

Yes, and yes.

I hope that's the only thing of Hamilton he mimics

I really wish Sale was a bluejay. He's doing ridiculous things these days. Excellent pitcher

[jaysfan2014]

I really wish Sale was a bluejay. He's doing ridiculous things these days. Excellent pitcher

 

And yet the White Sox suck.. they just don't know how to build around him.

You're the worst kind of person.

 

I like that your expectations are low

On the topic of sports girls, Jackie Redmond anyone? Also, if anyone watches HGTV, Samantha Pynn too!

[jaysfan2014]

Preston Guilmet back with the Rays AGAIN.. because Yates was sent down and Belisario was DFAd:

 

[jaysfan2014]

Our next opponent, the Detroit Tigers, are still playing.. in the 13th inning and still unable to score off the Pirates pen. And former trade piece in the Johan Santana deal, Deolis Guerra, is pitching..

I wish Kevin Cash went out of retirement just to catch him. A battery made in heaven.

[LTR]

Michael Montgomery, the 26 year old, who has been in the minor leagues for forever and had no real success at any level comes along and 1-hits the Padres.

[intentional wok]

On the topic of sports girls, Jackie Redmond anyone?

 

Literally the only thing I can think of when she comes on the TV:

Yanks lost. Yessir! Sox gain ground on the whole East.

[BigCecil]

Close this out Street. We've been incredibly lucky the last two days with rays, yanks, o's all losing.

 

Boston is now back in this race somehow.

 

NYY lose with Street getting the S.

 

Bosox are better than they have shown. Never let your foot off the head of a snake.

[Trouba95]

Yanks lose. Standings stay idle.

[LTR]

Rays lose

Yankees lose

O's lose

Red Sox win

 

The Apocalypse is nigh

Ugh, I really hope Mike Scoscia doesn't get fired and then replaces Gibby. What a tool.

[Brownie19]

yuck

 

I'm actually with Jim on this one. Jackie Redmond is way hotter.

[Jimcanuck]

So when is Cola gonna go flat? (see what I did there) Is regression inevitable or has he found something?

[Olerud363]

Yanks lost. Yessir! Sox gain ground on the whole East.

 

Smug Farrell is coming to haunt us... not trying to troll as I've mentioned before I live in Northeast in an area with 1/3 yanks, mets, and sox fans.

 

Mets fans - pleasant people, some even like the Jays as their "american league team"

 

Yanks fans - practical money making types, they want to make money and win. They don't get personal about it when yanks win, just business.

 

Sox fans - they gloat, they are smug like Farrell, they are m*******s, they sing sweet caroline and act like they are totally superior.

 

This is what I will have to deal with soon.

- BB rate less than career average

- K rate higher than career average

- ISO 0.07 above career average

 

143 wRC+ on a 0.434 BABIP. The magic probably ends when the BABIP drops 100+ points. He's not a terrible hitter, but unfortunately his defense only plays at DH and when everything settles the bat likely won't be good enough.
