    His real job?

    I barely have interest in participating

    Did you forget about my advocating for umpire discretion?

    s***, I know it isn't your fault juiced but I really need access to my PMs right now =/ is there any way I can get to them?

    And you absolutely must use unsalted butter or it will be too salty.

    Yeah man, why doesn't Gibby make Smoak bunt? Have you noticed around the league that this happens to a lot of players? And that, despite the shift, Smoak is still a well above average hitter? Why fix what is already working? Different players have different strengths.

    Jesus Christ. The least you could do is state a reason and who you think could do it better. I'm gonna wager a guess that you'd replace him with a guy who is either currently or most recently ran a really good team. Must have been the manager that did it, right?

    Using just Frank's is a noob move. Should be a 2:1 ratio of Frank's to melted butter. Also, lightly dusting the wings with baking powder lowers the temperature for the maillard reaction to occur, resulting in crispier wings. I prefer mine fried with a light dusting of flour. They don't taste breaded but gives them an extra light, crispy layer. Honey garlic wings are also amazing and fairly easy to make: 1/2 cup honey 4 tablespoons soy sauce 4 large garlic cloves , crushed 2 tsp powdered ginger 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes 1/4 cup water Simmer on stove until reduced. If making oven wings, toss wings and return to oven for a few minutes to caramelize.

    Lol @ by a long shot. Slap hitter with no patience and non-elite speed. That kid is going places. You guys are idiots. What else is new.

    You're a 30 grade poster with a 30 grade brain

    The Reds are run by morons. Sure, sit a guy with actual potential in favour of Adam Duvall and Scott Schebler. Jim Riggleman is an idiot and his name is stupid.

    People love accruing virtue points.

    Oh, and the one area that he can control (pitching changes) he's overachieved with this bullpen big time. It's essentially just a bunch of mid 30s cast offs and somehow it's the thing holding this team together. Donaldson has been injured all year, Tulo will probably never play again, his backup got injured, his starting RF got injured, his best reliever decided it was a good idea to beat up his girlfriend, Travis is a shell of his former self and Martin blows dick to the point where Luke f***ing Maile is playing nearly every day and Morales has been one of the worst players in the game, yet again. Oh yeah, and despite all this, there have been absolutely no rumours regarding a cancerous clubhouse. If Shatkins can explain how any of those things are Gibby's fault, then sure, fire him. But he can't. And if he does fire him, he won't. Something something different direction.

    Sounds a lot like Lucas Giolito

    Marty York doesn't know anything or have any contacts with anyone. How this season could possibly blamed on Gibby is beyond me. He's not the guy that tied a bunch of immovable contracts to this team, like Martin, Tulo, Morales or for the fact that he has to throw out s***** arms like Stroman, Sanchez, Garcia and Biagini. No lie, I'll be pretty f***ing pissed off if they replace Gibby.

    Sure, just sign up to Baseball Prospectus and get a premium account. Then, just regurgitate everything from there to here and present it as an original thought.

    Ok, question for you: if a player slides directly into second head first while a fielder is on the bag receiving the throw, should he be allowed to go slightly over the bag in order to disrupt the throw to first? He's taking a bonafide slide into the base where his natural momentum carries him over top the bag. Should players make a conscious effort to avoid the fielder even if they are reasonably within the baseline and it would hurt their team?

    Lol vdub sucks
  20. Boxcar
    Yeah? Did Rizzo prove it when his slide produced 2 runs? The difference is obviously intent. Hey, in the NFL, why can't I just tackle a guy by grabbing his face mask? In hockey, why can't I hit a guy from behind? You slide into second or third to avoid a tag and so that you don't run past the base. I was under the assumption that this was common knowledge. It's the same with cleats up/cleats down, lateness of the slide. Officials in every sport make judgement calls on intent to injure, why does baseball need to be different? As long as the player is reasonably within the base path, he should be able to slide how he wants.

    What? It has nothing to do with social justice. You just remind me of all the basic bitches on twitter who respond to literally everything with celebrity gifs.
  22. Boxcar
    Can we get updated standings? If you forgot to tally my win, I will end you
  23. Boxcar
    Basic bitches tend to use short gifs of celebrities saying something in response to things that they don't want to or can't answer, and instead of using a word they use a gif for extra edginess. Examples: http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/jlaw-whtvr.gif Etc. I'd recommend growing a pair and try not to buy a purse on the weekend.

    I agree that the slide was a violation of the rules as they currently stand, but I don't think it was particularly dirty, reckless or egregious. Rizzo just clipped his back foot and the catcher lost his balance. I can understand Hurdle's frustration because it WAS a rule violation, and Maddon's because he feels his player tried to break up a double play, which has been a part of the game for a long time. I gotta say, I'm not a big fan of the Utley rule. Injuries from slides were pretty rare and I feel like a baserunner should have an opportunity to assist the current batter running to first.

    NJH is Laika, which is a a generic term for several Russian dog breeds. I think he means Kudryavka, the first dog in space, but is too much of a huge dummy to realize it.
