Around Baseball 2017

Well, I understand his bitterness, the guy's been one of the best 1B in the AL and absolutely deserves to be an all-star, but he's not gonna be. LOL at giving a Rays' player a chance with the final vote option.

 

There should be 3 first basemen in the AL All-Star team. Morrison, Smoak and Alonso (as f***ing crazy as that sounds). Nobody else is even close; however, I expect a f***bag like Hosmer is on it? (I haven't looked) + probably Miggy because he's old.

Hosmer isn't, neither is Miggy. Alonso is on as a reserve.

Let's hope Francona gets better soon.. the Indians are sinking. 0-2 vs. the freaking Padres and facing an embarassing sweep tomorrow.. as the Royals surge toward the AL Central lead.

LMAO

 

Can't be real, but it really wouldn't supris me if it was. The comments are pretty sweet

[THANOS]

 

Unbelievable. She's sticking to it in the face of facts. Feels like a sportsnet commentator..

[Slade]

 

lol this is a troll post for sure she even put up a dumb video after this.

Pretty sure she just deleted her account as I can't access it anymore. Either it was a troll attempt that badly misfired, or she's just incredibly stupid. Or both!

[HERPDERP]

lol must've deleted it in the past few minutes, I read it 30 minutes ago and her account was still there

 

One of you folks must've harassed her, SMH

Jon Gray smacked a 467 foot dinger last night.

 

Edit - furthest by a pitcher since 2015

no s***, juiced balls plus Coors will do that for ya

[G-Snarls]

May have been mentioned in the GDT but

 

Dellin Betances has walked 10 batters in his last 3 appearances over 2.2 innings

Didn't he walk Goins on 4 pitches too?

It's one of the longest bombs hit at Coors this season by anyone. The Rockies (and visiting teams) have some darn good hitters who have not driven the ball over 450 feet at Coors this year, it's an impressive dinger by a pitcher regardless of the conditions.

[P2F]

13 Ks for Robbie Ray through 6, but he's probably done (106 pitches).

Osuna is far more deserving of an all-star berth, even before Betances' recent struggles.

There's quite a few more deserving relievers than Betances. Osuna certainly being one of them, I'm surprised with his save totals that he wasn't included on the roster. Chris Devenski is the other very notable omission.

 

I still can't believe Ervin Santana made the roster.

My hope is 1 or 2 of those starters get ruled ineligible so Osuna gets rewarded a spot. It's suprising to me how few relievers their are. Maybe I'm crazy but I'm almost postive they used fewer roster spots this year.

User name says it all, mate.

[G-Snarls]

Fernando Rodney gives up 2 hits and walks 4 (1 was intentional) before being pulled in what then becomes a tie game. Next pitcher gives up the game winning hit, handing the Dodgers their 23rd win in their last 27 games

[Brownie19]

Remember when people were hoping the Jays could pry Austin Barnes away from LA? He's been a stud this year. 1.2 WAR in 44 games (122 PA's). 148 wRC+

 

Him an Grandal are killing it for the Dodgers as a tandem.

[G-Snarls]

Dodgers are clicking on all cylinders

 

They wish the playoffs were starting NOW

 

Lol

As scary as any operation involving the heart is, it thankfully sounds like it's not too serious.

Yeah I remember posting about it last year, he also grades quite highly as a framer. Would have been nice to have a player like that instead of Salty/Maile.

Yes

 

Recovery is pretty quick

 

Glad he's OK

[G-Snarls]

Does this mean Gibby gets to manage the AL??

 

LMAO

[G-Snarls]

No

 

Apparently Brad Mills does

 

Boooo

 

LOL

As if anyone could have done anything with THAT Astros roster..

[P2F]

Yes

In theory it is, but post-surgery complications (such as DVT) are not all that uncommon with this procedure. DVT sucks.
