f*** the Braves, Dodgers, Phillies, Rays, Rangers, Astros and Diamondbacks because they ripped us off. Congrats to the Marlins, Brewers and Twinkies I guess.
How the hell is Chad Green optional? He's a lock. Espinal will be there too. The base stealing kid.
Also are we talking about the wildcard series only? Because you have currently have too many pitchers for what is a three gamer max.
Tank for Twinkies?
I mean we're not going to give our best effort tomorrow in terms of lineup, but should we go out of our way to not make strategic decisions to try to win the game also?
It got in the lights, s*** happens. We were eliminated from the wild card because Marcus Semien couldn't make the most routine play in baseball. ******** happens sometimes.
I have no problem with them spending, especially since they had young talent on the rise clearly. Don't know if it's great for baseball. They're still f***ed this year because of their pitching anyhow, but I don't really care about them either way I'm just happy they came through for us today!
How long until a professional athlete gets murdered because of gambling? I hope not, I hope it doesn't come to that but people become desperate and crazy.
It's fun, in moderation, could make an interesting game out of an otherwise uninteresting game.
I'm a fan of the NFL because of my gambling on it in high school. I started watching because of the gambling and just became a fan.
I never got sucked into addiction though. I can't even imagine young people today having the ability to click a button at any moment and bet on any aspect of the game at any part of the game on multiple games live. Especially if you just blew a bet and you want to try to get it back quickly. Impulsiveness and accessibility. The death spiral begins.
We're in some dangerous times.
It is indeed the greatest era for creating degenerate gamblers. Especially now that sports leagues are openly welcoming gambling culture. Doubling the suicide rate will be a breeze.
Maybe, that's going to happen sometimes especially in the playoffs when you run through arms like it's nobody's business. This was basically managed like a playoff game.
I think the main point is, you can never have enough great arms. Never heard a manager ever complain about having too many great pitchers.
He didn't really want to try to pitch Richards there, he just had to.
