Around Baseball 2019

It kinda feels like every Braves prospect is going to pan out

 

Riley has power but will he keep the Ks in check? MLB pitchers will find his weaknesses

To be fair, I doubt there's anything resembling meat in those dogs.

I don't think any hotdog has anything resembling meat in them anymore

Not in veggie dogs, nope

Looks like 2 taters in 2 games for Riley. Under review.

 

Nope - double off the top of the wall

K I’ll deal for him in BORED. Lets do it

Somehow the O's torched Bauer for 7ER ... and they're still losing the game.

Cool moment this Saturday as Dan Shulman will be calling the Barrie Baycats game (Dan got his start calling hockey games in Barrie). The cool part is that the Baycats announcer is Ben, Dan's son. This was supposed to happen on Fathers day but Sportsnet said no

A phrase we should be repeating in our heads: at least we're not the Orioles.

Yeah, that's cool indeed, the Baycats are on quite the run with 5 Championships in a row.

Maeda to the IL after hitting a foul ball off his leg, when's the MLB/MLBPA going to wake up and bring the DH to the NL, it'd help both sides.

Maeda seems to get a phantom IL stint every year. They have a bunch of off days in the next two weeks. He’s fine, and this is just roster manipulation.

Agreed, but point still stands.

Ryan Pressly has not allowed a run since August 10th of last year. A span of 38 appearances and 37 IP. He also hasn't walked anyone this season.

We are the Orioles. We may not be in two weeks. Things may get better, or maybe they won't!

 

1. The team as a whole is hitting about the same as Chris Davis 2019 level.

 

2. The team is being propped up by Sogard hitting out of his mind, Galvis a bit better then usual, Grichuk about usual, and Smoak's walk rate. Those are the good players.

 

3. The young players are hitting a combined Chris Davis 2018 level.

 

4. The only young player from our system who his hitting is Dwight Smith JR. And he is now playing for the Orioles.

 

We are the Orioles. We are everything Oriole. You can't get more Oriole then what we are now.

 

(It will probably and hopefully get better, but if you want to express what level the Jays are playing at as of this day, May 17th 2019, the best word to describe it is ORIOLE)

 

And you may argue that, no my friend, we are 2 games better than the Orioles!!!

 

May I remind you that the ultimate butt kick in the nuts season involves being terrible but somehow finishing ahead of other terrible teams and getting the 9th pick while..

 

The Orioles get their second #1 in a row.

 

Orioles. They are us. We are them except with worse picks!!!!!

[Boxcar]

Can we get a ban plz

Keon Broxton DFA'd by the Mets

[jays4life19]

Marlins move up the red hot Garrett Cooper to the #2 hole for tonights game.

[jaysblue]

Keon Broxton DFA'd by the Mets

 

I'd rather give Keon Broxton at-bats over Socrates Brito or McKinney.

LAD are f***ing the system with fakes injuries

[Brownie19]

Broxton basically IS Socrates Brito. The only difference is he had one decent half season where the BABIP god's where shining down on him.

Pressly just set a new MLB record with his 39th straight scoreless appearance.

[TheHurl]

Ryan Pressly has not allowed a run since August 10th of last year. A span of 38 appearances and 37 IP. He also hasn't walked anyone this season.

 

and has retired the leadoff man in all those outings

[TheHurl]

Gleyber just had a real nice AB, fouling off 5 straight before getting a double off Alvarado. Yankees scored 2 so far in the ninth to tie it.

 

 

And Gio Urshala singles to win it for them.

[glory]

The Yankees could sign one of us and we’d suddenly be able to hit.

Austin Meadows homers to put Tampa ahead in the 11th. The Pirates FO continues to be on suicide watch. Edited May 18, 2019 by TheHurl
