I have 3 f***ing players on the paternity list all at the same time. Lol what are the chances of that?

 

Maybe you should stop drafting all of the especially virile players. Stop letting your man-crushes get in the way of competing.

Dan Straily pitched well in a no-decision against the Mets on Sunday, issuing five walks over 5 1/3 innings of no-hit ball.

Jesus, another clean 2 innings, 4 ks. The guy was fantastic last year but he's basically Kenley Jansen who throws 100+ innings.

Is Chris Owings legitimately interesting?

 

Those sure are some sustainable peripherals, I tells ya. I heard BP have put a 70 on his BABIP tool.

I hate that nickname so much. His last name is Danish, not Norwegian.

 

The Danes owned Norway for hundreds of years... though I'm pretty sure it has more to do with the Marvel character than Norse mythology.

I don't think it has anything to do with his name or heritage. It's the fact that he's a tall, strong man with flowing golden locks that throws a 100 mph fastball.

I don't care, it's cringey af

 

But I'd guarantee no one is calling him Thor if his last name was Jones or Smith.

Or maybe the whole "really good curveball, a pitch nicknamed a hammer" thing

 

does this make RA Dickey Loki

Why wouldn't they?

 

If he was 6'0 with short brown hair and the same last name and skill set, I guarantee no one would call him Thor.

FFS, the Norse god Thor has red hair and a beard. He's clearly nicknamed after the comic book character. This has nothing to do with anyone's heritage.

Guys, I'm pretty sure they call Syndergaard Thor for more than one reason.

 

- his name sounds Norse (even if it isn't)

- he looks like Chris Hemsworth sort of

- he is really big and athletic, like a god

- he has a 'hammer' curveball

- he is essentially a pitching god

 

your all dum

Fewer syllables. People are lazy.

I'll willing to just say Boxy is stupid and move on:)
