  1. When did “protect the plate” turn into “swing at a clear ball if you have 2 strikes just because?” This whole thing isn’t even about protecting the plate anyways, not sure why this is being brought up. Its about an umpire getting a check swing call wrong. You could argue Flores should have either decided TO swing or decided to NOT swing instead of half swinging. But you can’t say he NEEDED to swing because he NEEDED to “protect the plate”, that’s moronic.
  2. Dude it was a ball lol. And the ump called it a ball. And he checked his swing.
  3. He... didn’t?? Unless you’re talking about Wade Jr
  4. Even on a borderline swing, in that situation you’d think the ump would say no and force a proper end to the AB. But that wasn’t even really close
  5. Oh no... thats def not a swing. Brutal ending
  6. Seems there’s a definite possibility for a hard salary floor and a hard/soft salary cap.
  7. Yeah don't we always argue on here that the 2015 Jays were probably the best team in baseball that year and should have won? Instead they got bounced by the Royals and their SUPERSTAR leadoff hitter Alcides Escobar... and they ended up winning the WS against the Mets, arguably a better team. Bottom line is you DONT need an MVP player to make the playoffs. You DONT need a Cy young candidate. You DONT need a crazy run differential. You just need a solid team and for things to break right over the course of 162. And in the playoffs, just need a couple guys to hold a hot streak for a few weeks. (Daniel Murphy, Mookie Betts, Steve Pearce, Alcides Escobar, Madison Bumgarner, etc.)
  8. Better to not dwell on things. Just prepare for another heartbreak next year if Charlie is still managing
  9. Back in the days when AA wasted first round picks like 5 years in a row
  10. Phil Bickford pitching for the Dodgers... I seem to remember he was a guy the Jays drafted but couldn’t sign?
  11. And now a 2-run homer by Wil Smith. Final nail for the Giants tonight Game 5 should be fun!
  12. Nothing going on these past few innings
  13. Or at least an all-star caliber player for what they’re paying him. Contract is looking extremely ugly if he doesn’t rebound
  14. Giants are lucky that this is only a 4 run game. Dodgers have warning track power for DAYS
  15. Holy s*** what a nice play by Wade Jr
  16. No baseball tomorrow.... Lets hope the Dodgers take this one so that we have a game on Thursday!!
  17. Ground rule triple sounds good. Automatic triple is already a thing (throwing your glove/equipment at a fair ball is an auto triple) so I don’t see why it can’t be extended to a defender misplaying a ball and booting it into the stands.
  18. Game 5 would be nice... at least one of these series hopefully
  19. The 2021 ALCS (American League Cheaters Series)
  20. Eloy about to hit a meaningless monster dong
  21. Oof that last homer by Altuve really hurts
