Around Baseball 2023

[Jonn]

14M team option next year that almost certainly won't be picked up. Costing himself tens of millions this year.

 

Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't he offered a sizable extension at one point and declined?

[keggy]

He's in a contract year, right? Sucks for him, lol.

 

The pressure of being the modern day Jackie Robinson has finally gotten to him.

[John_Havok]

How do you keep hitting a guy 2nd in the order when he's this checked out. Dude should be sent home.

 

 

If Atkins sees this clip he’ll be on the phone trying to pick him up. He’ll fit right in this lineup

[Carlos Danger]

Nobody talking about the Yankees firing their hitting coach? Now if we do it, we just look like copy cats...

 

We should do it though..

[WryNGinger]

Are we going to switch up the starting pitcher order after the All-star break? Something like this?

 

Berrios

Manoah

Gausmann

Kikuchi

Bassitt

Anderson's GB rate appears to have skyrocketed this season as well, combined with a complete loss of power, so no doubt Atkins and Guillermo licking their chops to acquire him.

 

Although I am curious to see if the White Sox pick up his option. It's not that expensive considering what type of player he was pre-2023 and there's a history between the player and org, but Reinsdorf is cheap as hell, so who knows.

What was he waiting for? lol

[BTS]

This is my annual complaint about how much the All Star break f***ing sucks

It's both an exhibition for fans and a break for the players. Surely you don't have a complaint about the latter?

STFU Jim

lol... well put.

Apparently Robert Jr tweaked his calf in the HR derby, will not play in the AS game and is listed as day-to-day

[connorp]

It gives Jim time to look over his fantasy rosters and ponder what he can to avoid getting bounced in the 1st round continually

Yikes

Well, it’s not like he blew his ACL on the beach before the Pro Bowl. Few days off. Trying for the million was prob more important than the game to him. Skip the AS game and be ready for the second half

We’ll see, but you never know with him

[Pinkfloid]

Wtf is with the vocal affectation of this singer????

[Jonn]

Seattle is dead silent if it’s not filled with Blue Jays fans.

[Jonn]

Gallen fathered Ohtani just like he fathers the league.

 

Easily the best pitcher in Baseball that doesn't get talked about nearly enough. If he played for the Yankees or Dodgers he would be f***ing huge.

[Stangstag]

Lol of course Gurriel does that

[Jonn]

Romano hurt.

[Stangstag]

Romano hurt.

 

What did it look like

[Pinkfloid]

Tweaked his lower back it looked like. Hopefully nothing too bad but in a game like this no need to take any chances.

[Abomination]

Well, that's not ideal.

Yeah probably precautionary more than anything. Rest up

[Captain_Obvious]

Vlad just does not look like he belongs.

[Jonn]

Vladdy has had a couple terrible defensive innings.

Dude’s probably running on fumes after yesterday
