Around Baseball 2017

[Jonn]

Lol how does a former NFL quarterback (albeit a s***** one) have a below average throwing arm?

 

He wasn't a very good QB. He had that miracle run with his short throws and running game. But he could never throw the Ball down the field.

Should have prayed harder.

[G-Snarls]

A HOF career cut short due to injuries. Sad. He was a gem and the face of the Mets.

 

He might never play again at this rate

What's in worse shape...Petco right now or the Padres team.

I still say the team

[King]

 

Wow!

[Pendleton]

I think the team is treading in deeper water than that.

[Boxcar]

 

Wow!

 

Lol just when you thought the NCAA couldn't be a bigger joke

[John_Havok]

Listening to Jamie Campbell on PTS right now, apparantly the secret to every bench player being good is just giving them more at bats.

 

His evidence? Cuz Smoak had a good couple of series last year when he got to play for 2 weeks straight as a starter.

 

Ding... f***ing ..... ding

PTS has really gone downhill the last year so, Bobcat has packed it in. They should just simulcast Tim & Sid,

 

Sick of Damien Cox faking that he knows anything about sports anymore. Talking about Terrance Ross like he knows anything.

[G-Snarls]

Slick Munenori Kawasaki play:

Same applies to McCown himself. Cox only ever knew hockey, and Bob knew baseball 30 years ago. Other than that they don't know jack s***.

Bob knows business, and he knows old skool baseball...plus horse racing and boxing. But I find him entertaining enough. I don't really listen to him for breaking news or anything analytical. If you're looking for Fangraphs type stuff...that's not his strength.

[Pendleton]

Twins recent first rounder Alex Kirilloff will miss the season to undergo TJS.

Bob's strength is that he's one of the only ones on the radio in the city left that can pull high profile sports guests on his show. I don't ever tune in to hear him ramble but to see who he has coming in as a guest

[Orgfiller]

I still say the team

 

Only one of these things will be back to good shape in a week.

[G-Snarls]

Can David Wright still hit?

 

Mets have a hole at 1B anyway...

[TheHurl]

 

Wow!

 

My first reaction was wow. But then when you see the document they are handed...it's pretty obvious and it says "no fantasy sports gambling of any kind". There is a quick list card of common violations that all scholarship athletes are given. My friend's son has just accepted a golf scholarship to Drexel and he has to delete/deactivate his Youtube accounts too, as it would be too easy to get around rules by getting boosters to support them through youtube hits. I hate that the NCAA is cut and dry about their rules no matter what the investigation comes up with but now think of it this way...it may have been a $100K buy in fantasy pool where boosters are throwing it. The best thing they can do is start paying kids but the tiered system created would probably ruin certain schools.

Maybe for a month or two, in between lengthy DL stints?

 

His chronic condition makes any highly athletic movement risky. Running, sprinting, sliding, repeated swinging will all break him down in a matter of weeks/months, even if he is at DH.

[RealAccountant]

I think we are beyond the point of the FAN590 being any good. Really says a lot about the situation when Andrew Walker is quite possibly the only one I can bear to listen to.

 

Historically we always had great 1-4PM hosts and that the Bobcat was beyond his peak but would still be interesting. Now him, Cox, Shannon, Madani are a bunch of old man at the gym complaining about life. I literally have to turn the drivell on even when they are discussing baseball. Mccowan has lost it. Now he says that Aaron Sanchez is going to be better than Roy f***ing Halladay. Are you kidding me,

 

TSN radio >>>> Fan590 now.

What are the odds this is BBBB?

0%. Guy is clearly not drunk, just very, very stupid.

[Spanky__99]

His spine is messed up, this shoulder impingement is likely a direct result of his back.

You mean that cybermetric stuff???

 

I only listen to Bobcat to hear Stephen Burnt. I love Brunt.
