Around Baseball 2017

f*** sakes, people need to stop being a bunch of f***ing magpies. It's just a f***ing foul ball.

 

It's not as bad as you guys make it out to be. He stands up as the ball approaches and just loses his balance. I expected to see some over zelous loser pushing people out of the way and leaning over to catch it

[jaysfan2014]

Orioles lose again. 3-11 now in their last 14 and threatening to reopen the AL wild card race wide open.. Jays are only 3.5 out now after they beat Texas tonight..

Did anyone see Souza Jr's diving catch attempt tonight? So hilarious, he came up a good 20 feet short!

Yes, that was incredible. He and Kiermaier had a good laugh over that.

Then he jacked one. lol

I'm trying to watch this Mariners versus Red Sox game but I just can't. Dennis Eckersley is legitimately unbearable.

Watch the Seattle feed. You aren't missing much. Mariners can't touch Brian Johnson and are behind 5-0 now. Casey Lawrence in for the M's now and struck out the first 2 batters he faced.

The guy who does the Mariners' PBP sounds like that obnoxious, creepy, bald uncle that people go out of their way to avoid at family gatherings.

His voice and mannerisms always struck me as some old, fat, European looking dude. I was actually shocked to find out he was a black guy.

[MunenoriKawasakiMVP]

Chase Anderson with a no-hit bid through 7. At 111 pitches tho so he may be taken out soon unless the Brewers are dumn and blow his arm out.

CG shutout for Brian Johnson in his third major league start

Of course, I bench him in LOD thinking he'll get destroyed by the Mariners' offense and he pitches a gem. FFS

This is why you're last in your division.

 

Yeah, yeah, so am I.....

Why would you do that? The Mariners have been a disgustingly bad offense for a decade now and nothing has changed.

The Baltimore Orioles are falling like a stone in the standings. They are on the verge of losing their 6th in a row to the Twins. The Blue Jays will probably be only 3 games behind Baltimore after tonight; who would of thought that was possible, a month ago.

They're playing the Astros.

I can't believe it either. And with the O's upcoming sked with the Yankees and Red Sox, the Jays (and Tampa) could be ahead of Baltimore within a week or two.. the Orioles are a mess. And Jones is hurt now too...

[Sammy225]

You would think with all the working class players on this Orioles team they could score more then two runs per game

Machado hitting .225 isn't helping--wondering if he wants out of Baltimore. A crappy pitching staff isn't helping.. with only one above average starter (Bundy) and a load of crap.

[nextyear]

They're playing the Astros.

 

Yes, the Astros. Senility is catching up with me. In any case, the Orioles lost.

[jaysfan2014]

Speaking of disappointments, try Cleveland! 24-23, 3 games out of first, trailing the O's for a wild card, WORST home record in the AL (only Miami has fewer wins--and the Padres have more wins at home than Cleveland). And talk is Salazar is headed for the bullpen..

 

In addition, regression has hit this team HARD. Kipnis, Jose Ramirez, others have regressed, Bauer/Tomlin/Salazar have been terrible, Edwin's been not worth the $20M he's getting..

[Maahfaace]

Decent read on Votto and his solitary nature.

Judge just ruled Triggs guilty of throwing a bad pitch--grand slam! 5-2 Yankees..

[jaysfan2014]

Twins/Astros coming up tomorrow--did anyone think this was a series vs. 1st place team that was going to happen? Of course, Houston may destroy the Twins.. Minnesota is going to have a worn-down bullpen for the series, as the Twins are in extras vs. Tampa...

[jaysfan2014]

Astros are looking forward to sweeping the Twins this week.. as Minnesota's pitching staff continues to have to keep a game tied. 15th inning, 6-6 vs. Tampa..

David Price starting for the first time this season

 

2 PM ET at White Sox

 

After 2 bad rehab starts

[jaysfan2014]

lol

 

Well, it was the best I can do regarding Aaron Judge--he's already a ROY candidate and pushing Mike Trout for the MVP(3.5 WAR for Trout, 3.0 for Judge)..

[jaysfan2014]

David Price starting for the first time this season

And against a White Sox team that has been surprisingly capable offensively.. kinda wish they had called up Moncada for this series though to spite the Red Sox. Maybe next time they see them later this season.

[G-Snarls]

Also Yankees play early vs struggling Orioles
