Around Baseball 2017

It's ironic, considering most considered Smoak's extension to be the most erroneous decision that Shatkins had made to date.

 

Big time

 

I tjought it was unnecessary

 

Had no idea he might have a 2-3 WAR season in his future.

Remember when fans wanted us to bring back Revere this year? -0.9 WAR this year. He's done.

The Giants acquired Sam Dyson. Its a shame we wont get to see him again.

[Brownie19]

Chad Green looks filthy.

[thatoneguy]

[P2F]

Four dongs and ten ribs in this game for Scooter. What in the actual f*** is going on?

If only there were two men on for the fourth, would've been the first to ever get the home run cycle.

[fatcowxlive]

Damn Scooter Gennett had a 4 homer game!! Amazing, they guy came into the game with 3 homers this season and hits more in one game lol

[TwistedLogic]

Kevin Kiermaier misplayed a ball on a basic line drive so badly that he tricked the White Sox broadcasters, the on-field umpires, and the New York review umpires all into thinking that it was a home run.

Wtf

 

Hasn't KK messed up a bunch of plays recently? I think a couple of weeks ago the ball went under his glove in back to back games?

Wow. What did they think it hit? There's nothing that low at the Trop. The catwalks are all way higher than that

[Boxcar]

It looked to me like it had to have hit something because of the way it bounced to the outfield wall. It lost a lot of steam and came at a pretty steep angle.

Bird/bat/massive moth?

[Boxcar]

Why can't they just use the statcast thinger to track the flight of the ball and see if it hit anything?

Robbie Ray is awesome! Love owning him in the DDL.

It's such a delight to have him go every five or so days for my BBDL team. I've watched him mature over the last couple of seasons into what he is today. He's almost fully there. He's already a goddamn stud, though.

The ball was hooking towards left field before it hit this supposed object. I don't see the 'left turn' that they mention on the broadcast, as the ball follows a consistent trajectory. Kiermaier simply fooled the umps by misplaying it so badly.

He was like a late round draft pick for me in the DDL, maybe even in the first June draft we had if I recall. Remember drafting him when he was with the Tigers. It's fun watching someone develop & mature after taking a flier on them in one of the late rounds of a draft. Drafted Daniel Hudson back in 2009 in another league like with a 5th round pick and it was fun watching him over his first two years. Ray definitely doesn't get that much love in the baseball world in comparison to other arms.
