  1. Is Luke Voit on the yanks roster? Why is EE still in the lineup?
  2. No way - keep you head down and act like you've done it before and will do it again. Don't show up your opponent.
  3. Basketball player does a big fist pump in front of his defender - no excessive Hockey player turns defender inside out and pops one top corner on the goalie...circles around with his stick over his head cheering - no excessive Pitcher fist pumps in front of the batter after a big strikeout - excessive Hitter raises his bat above his head, cheers and throws it after a home run - excessive Do I have that right?
  4. I'm curious if you hate it when hockey players raise their sticks over their heads after a goal, or when a basketball player fist pumps after a big basket.
  5. Yeah I get it. But it's so irrelevant that I fail to see why you'd bother calling him out on it. On a similar note - I'm now questioning why I bothered to question you on this...
  6. He is, but calling out someone on an article about the results of their bold predictions is pretty low man.
  7. Holy f*** boys....incredible. Baseball is the best.
  8. The difference (with Pedro, Smoltz, Schilling) is that Cole is about to be a FA. It certainly sounds like he wants to get his $$$....will he risk injury? I mean he probably will if it's for all the marbles....but what if they are down 0-3 in the series and Houston wants him to go on short rest? Could get interesting.
  9. No GDT? Anyone see Mikolas grab hit crotch at Soto after getting him out?
  10. They ran a story about how Cole's always had the long term goal of being the best pitcher at his age when he's 19, 20, 21, 22, etc. Apparently he would refuse to pitch in tournaments or for his team when he was 13 or 14 if it didn't fit into his throwing schedule. Him and his Dad have always been very focused on the goal (which probably made him a s***** teammate when he was young). Based on this and his actions when drafted, it doesn't seem like he brings emotions into his decisions. Eye on the prize guy. I would be REALLY interesting to see what happens if the Astros ask him to throw on short rest, or come out of the pen on a couple of days rest during the ALCS or World Series. Leading into free agency - will he refuse to protect his arm/stock? Reminds me of the Kevin Durant situation.
  11. Doesn't this increase our chances? If he wanted to play for a contender or play in certain cities, than the Jays would have to offer significantly more or have some unique setup to draw him away from those teams. If he wants to be paid more than any other pitcher in baseball....then the Jays just need to make that happen. I see that mindset as a bonus.
  12. This reminds me of a good story. My ball team was at a tournament in Ottawa (Nepean) a few years back. It was always just an excuse for the team to get away and have a long weekend full of booze, drugs, strippers and baseball. This particular year we stayed in the university dorms. After a long night out, one of our more unique mouth breathers strayed from the pack and ended up on his own. He couldn't remember the address (or probably his name) and somehow, he ended up at a nursing home, which he thought was the dorms we were staying in. Of course the doors were locked and he couldn't get in....so, he did the logical thing and hammered on the glass for awhile and then tried to destroy the little pedestal card reader thing that opened the door. Cops came and found him hiding in the bush. He drove him back to our dorms and proceeded to tell us all this story before letting him go. He had to pay like $1,500 to fix the card reader thing. Good times.
  13. I hear bowling is a good sport. Maybe give it a try.
  14. It was a joke Hurl. I'll try harder next time to make that evident.
  15. Have you seen Gerrit Cole pitch before?
  16. I'm too dumn to even know what you're trying to say.
  17. Excellent point. Gausman was better for the Braves than Keuchel and Folty this year FFS.
  18. An Astros/Nats final would certainly throw water on the idea that you can win without elite starters. Don't forget Corbin/Greinke too...they were both top 13 in WAR this year!
  19. I feel bad for Muncy. He's become one of my favourite players in the game. The guy is a beast. Otherwise - f*** the Dodgers.
  20. The point is there will be better lottery tickets to purchase...
