Around Baseball 2019

Chris Davis squeezed/framed out of a walk on two consecutive pitches so he starts his year out right, on a strikeout.

[TBJ12]

O's still batting Chris Davis 3rd and trading IFA money. It's nice to see nothing has changed.

 

Edit: Davis is batting 7th.

Tanaka benefiting from a VERY generous strike zone.

 

Umps are super excited that catcher framing has been added to WAR and want to help Sanchez's stats.

[Abomination]

Lol, way to pimp that routine fly ball Gary!

Brandon Finnegan designated. Worth taking a flyer on?

deGrom vs. Scherzer is not disappointing. Holy f*** I missed baseball.

[glory]

Already the 6th inning and the game started like an hour ago.

 

No amount of openers or elite relievers is better than having an elite starter.

18 strikeouts out of 31 possible outs.

 

Edit: 19 out of 32.

I'd certainly take a game like this over an opener.

 

But I would take an opener over Chacin. lol

[Ray]

Trea Turner has 3 stolen bases already and it's only the 7th inning

[P2F]

I can't even begin to articulate how unfair and nasty this is.

[P2F]

Not a starter, though.

[Brownie19]

Cain 'saved' the save for Hader. Beauty catch

[Dr. Dinger]

Not a starter, though.

 

He looks like Chris Sale if he never left the pen.

[Dr. Dinger]

Also, crazy how all those whiffs are on fastballs.

[G-Snarls]

18 strikeouts out of 31 possible outs.

 

Edit: 19 out of 32.

 

12 for Scherzer

10.for Degrom

 

Getting a head start on the MLB strikeout leaderboard they are

[havok24]

Beisbol is back and life is good again!

[G-Snarls]

Sale started off throwing 93 now sitting at 91

 

Has given up two long bombs to Tim Beckam and the Mariners are up 6-2

I have nothing against Sale, but I hate the Sox enough that I want him to fail.

[G-Snarls]

Dodgers hit *8* home runs today

[jaysblue]

Think Josh Hader could be a starter?

[jaysblue]

deGrom vs. Scherzer is not disappointing. Holy f*** I missed baseball.

 

Glad I booked today off to watch that game! Happy Opening Day!

[Captain Adama]

Think Josh Hader could be a starter?

 

Yeah, potential 3 plus pitches and already a multi inning reliever

[Abomination]

This could really come in handy:

Rarity in the Yankees game with the runner on first getting hit by the batted ball on his way to second.

 

Somehow CB Bucknor wasn't able to notice this in his snooze-fest at second, geez he gets the 3rd game behind the plate...

 

The announcers failed again to tell us the rule on this situation, in which the runner is out if there is any possible way the D could have made a play on the ball. If the fielders are in, a hit baserunner behind them is not an out...

LOCK THIS GOOF UP, if found guilty, of course.

 

Ex-MVP Wetteland indicted on 3 counts of child sex assault

Mar 29, 2019

 

DENTON, Texas (AP) A Texas grand jury has indicted former All-Star and World Series MVP pitcher John Wetteland on three counts of continuous sexual assault of a child.

 

The indictments Thursday in Denton County, north of Dallas and Fort Worth, follow Wetteland's January arrest . He's accused of making a child repeatedly perform a sex act on him.

 

The 52-year-old Wetteland was released in January after posting a $25,000 bond. A phone number couldn't be found for him Friday and it's unclear if he has an attorney.

 

Wetteland was the Most Valuable Player of the 1996 World Series when he helped the New York Yankees beat the Atlanta Braves. He posted four saves in that Series, which remains a major league record.

 

He was also inducted into the Texas Rangers' Hall of Fame.
