Around Baseball 2019

[Spanky__99]

Hypocritical isn't really the right word for it. He's very professional on the mound and at the plate.

 

Call him old fashioned or behind the times or whatever, but he has been pretty consistent in his beliefs.

 

Know he isn't, lmfao. The guy's the biggest prick in the league.

[TheHurl]

Most insufferable bitch in the entire league.

 

Madbum or Ortiz?

[Spanky__99]

Stable doesn't necessarily mean that either. The dude had a bullet go through his abdomen and he is probably in surgery right now. All of these reports are sketchy. He could be dead right now!

 

From what I've read he's out of surgery? But the lost in translation changes quite a bit, I suppose you're right.

 

Where's Ang when you need him, or was that Ang who was the shooter? Hmmm...

 

 

GOOD NEWS!!! The operation is over and David Ortiz is out of danger

[Grant77]

Know he isn't, lmfao. The guy's the biggest prick in the league.

 

If you enjoy celebrations from players then that is a reasonable point of view. He's just not a hypocrite from what I have seen.

Did the shooter ride away on a burro that was in heat?

I think he was saying that Madbum pimped a few of his HR's. He posted a video of all of Madbum's HRs which I have zero intention of watching.

[Spanky__99]

He didn't even pimp the HR man, guy's a goof, see him bitching to the ump, toss his f***ing ass.

 

 

Yup, real professional.

If you want to "let the kids play" then you should also consent to letting the old curmudgeon players be curmudgeons. The key point is that outsiders need to let the players just be the players - themselves.

 

The real problem is media/fans obsessively piling on about player attitudes. It's easy to see how out of touch the old newspaper writers who complain about flashy players are... but the younger, twitter crowd should get some perspective too and realize that they're trying to create, stoke, and participate in a little culture war when they aren't even part of the culture. It's getting kind of annoying.

There's a video of Ortiz being shot, apparently. It doesn't look like an attempted robbery. Seems like a straight up murder attempt.

It is Nick's personal battle of being young but deep down is an old soul

[TheHurl]

We need Ang's take on the Papi shooting. He is in the know and always hinted stuff about Papi

[Spanky__99]

This guy got messed up at the club, rightfully so.

 

 

[Ex Player]

Papi is considered a God in the D.R. This guy picked the wrong person to rob. Karma was swift and painful for Eddy from what it looks like

[Ex Player]

Police say robbery was not the motive, and he's expected to make a full recovery:

The response was clearly intended to come from his Boxcar account.

[King]

Ortiz is pretty lucky to be alive. The guy could have taken his head off.

Drug dealer shoots National hero...lets take bets on whether we ever hear this full story told

IMO these are the only possible motives:

 

1. Domestic dispute or some kind of love triangle (most likely)

2. Drug or gambling debts (possible, but Ortiz doesnt strike me as a druggie type)

3. Regular barfight or other conflict

4. Mistaken identity (unlikely)

5. Idiot shooter trying to make a name for himself (also unlikely)

You don't have much imagination if you can only come up with five.
