Around Baseball 2023

Nice sample, lol.

[thatoneguy]

Cancel culture at its best. I’m a guy that thinks kiddy diddlers should be executed. One year to appeal, then turn out the lights.

 

I doubt when pics emerge of this girl, it’ll be like omg she looks like she’s 12. She’s going to have a full rack and probably a donkey dumpster.

 

Should he know better? It’s arguable considering he dropped out of school at 12 to play baseball. He’s got the testosterone of a 22yo and has grown up a king. It’s not something anyone in his own culture would care about.

 

Should he get a lesson here? Sure. But canceled, no

 

What the actual f***?

[Jimcanuck]

Jim do you believe it’s most likely that the only evidence is the four photos posted online?

 

Possibly. There are also allegations, which is not evidence.

 

In any event, I was responding to BTS saying the photos are enough to permaban Franco.

 

By the way, why were you so adamant that Bauer is innocent, and now just as adamant that Franco is guilty?

[G-Snarls]

So he’s on admin leave? Yikes. See you 2023

 

Rays are in big trouble

 

I think decent chance they don't make the post season though for that to happen the Jays and Mariners both have to play well.

 

Only reason they still have a chance is the ridiculous win buffer they put up in April/May. They're not a top 6 team in the AL right now with the players available to them. They could still limp in but it won't be pretty.

lol @ the Yankees

 

The Braves are averaging 7.9 runs per game in August, not a typo.

[metafour]

Royals were up 5-0 on the Mariners with a dominant outing from Singer. They try to bring him out in the 8th inning at ~100 pitches and he promptly gives up a double and hits a batter. Some reliever then comes in and gives up 4 runs to make it a 1 run game.

 

Moral of the story, if your starter is cruising, he's good to pitch the whole game!

John Schneider take note

 

Ahem

Angels getting pounded by the real AL West powerhouse

Go KC!!!!!

 

Lol

[G-Snarls]

Yankees are now 60-59

 

They haven't finished a season under .500 since 1992

 

Would love to see it happen...

[glory]

Mariners tie it in the 9th in the most predictable outcome of the night.

[hanton]

Logan Gilbert vs the Royals, Gilbert blows up but Mariners come back and the game is now tied in the 9th

[hanton]

Why give Rojas a pitch to hit with an 0 - 2 count

[jaysthebest]

The Royals are f***ing horrible. I get why they are in last place.

By the way, why were you so adamant that Bauer is innocent, and now just as adamant that Franco is guilty?

 

I'm going to take a wild guess here and go with the photo evidence, Jim. How come you were so adamant that Bauer was guilty(and he never was), and now trying to just as adamantly say Franco is innocent when there's actual evidence against the guy? I'll go with he's on your fantasy teams and an underlined political stance as you just dropped an underhanded insult at L54, you can't help yourself, lol.

[G-Snarls]

Royals "threatening" but...

[G-Snarls]

s***

 

Big Sal Perez tied it up

[glory]

Thank you KC!

[G-Snarls]

Holy s*** they f***in did it

 

Royals win it in the bottom of the 9th

 

Nice!

[hanton]

and they squeeze home the winning run

I never once said Bauer was guilty, nor am I saying Franco is innocent.

Wow!

[Brownie19]

Royals win!

[BigCecil]

Royals win!

 

The worm has turned on the Ms hot streak. A walk off bunt and I’m there for it.

[Jimcanuck]

 

You have evidence otherwise? Find and show the receipts then (you would be wasting your time, there are none).

 

I have never rushed to judgement on these things. As you posted yesterday, due process.

 

This is also an interesting intersection of law and cultural norms in two countries, USA and DR. A tricky navigation for MLB.

 

The age of consent in Germany and a number of other European countries is 14. Not relevant to the matter, but just shows the problem for MLB in applying its policies to events that happen outside the USA/Canada.

I have no idea if he’s guilty or not. But based on precedent the league and Tampa have no choice

 

Equal justice for all. You should be happy about that.

mic drop

[L54]

Nice M’s loss and Astros as well. Hopefully the Jays actually finish in the 3rd WC spot and take on the Central
