2016 MLB Season Thread

The Cubs are pretty good

You can thank Jake Peavy for that lolz

I won't say anything more about Clay Buchholz.  It's not even worth it.

The Red Sox only had 2 hits after the 2nd inning. Wouldn't exactly pin that loss on the pitching.

Mets are the same way almost every night. If they don't hit 3 HRs in a game there's like a 75% chance they lose.

Yup, I completely agree with that. Im not so sure I like that in the playoffs when you are in extra innings and everyone is swinging for the fences instead of trying to get on base and advancing runners.

Mookie!

I never said pitching was the reason they lost, I just said I'm not commenting on Buchholz.  Whether you classify that as a good outing for Buchholz or not, he still has an ERA over 6.00 and has been highly praised by the staff over the years, despite pitching to countless mediocre seasons.
 
As for Joe Kelly, he's the one pitcher that can almost no-hit a club but still suck.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

I honestly wouldn't care if Kelly blew out his arm going for a no-no here haha.

Jbj's streak is extended to 26 games.

Kiermaier fractured his hand today. Huge loss for the Rays. Already has 9 drs this year.

 

[PWNdroia]

Travis Shaw and Jackie Bradley Jr. are still amazing.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Add a left fielder and this line up is perfect imo (holt is best suited as utility player not an everyday left fielder).

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Betts with a grand salami.

 

[elcheato]

The Indians announcer had no clue who Josh Rutledge was. Someone hit a grounder to him, the announcer said it was Shaw, quickly realized it wasn't, and then legit said out loud, "who is that?", had to wait for the graphics department to put up the name to find out.

I hate how MLB TV plays the same commercial over and over and over again. Like change things up. I've had to hear this Tropicana commercial like 40 times today.

 

[snipezo]

Still great though, and I love how you can have multiple users running one account. I've shared mine to a few of my buddies who are baseball fans.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Oh I love it in general. I used a shared account as well and it's so clutch.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

K umpire's wives shouldn't do this.
 

 
 
I remember bitching about Basner not too long ago.

When bae shows up to the game you're umpiring, you gotta flex your powers.
