2019 MLB Season Thread [ARCHIVED] Baseball • Page 37

That's how New York fans are in general. People love to hate on the Yankees, but not as much as their fans love to hate them

 

Don't worry, it'll be mainstream talk by mid season. Hopefully they'll get rid of some bad contracts by the deadline. Watching morons hate on them for dumb stuff is always fun though IMO, at least if joe doesn't stay they won't be able to blame him anymore hahaha

Super bummed about kaprelian, hopefully he can return by late next season. Gotta get TJ out of the way anyway I suppose

 

This guy in our fantasy league made a super ridiculous trade

Jose Quintana
Dee Gordon
Kendrys morales

For

Tyler Glasgnow
Robert Stephenson
Joe musgrave

This dude got sooo ripped off it's not funny, and of course the guy who ripped him off is the guy in the league I absolutely despise.

 

You guys don't have a veto rule?

 

Nah, it's vote only I believe. I think the lm could veto it if he wanted to regardless though. He's known to think a lot of lopsided trades are fine so I'm not surprised he didn't care. I didn't bother messaging him. I would care a little less if the dude who acquired the good deal wasn't one of those fantasy dbags who won't trade anyone and is convinced any prospect he has is a future hall of famer yet sends you awful trades all the time.

 

Yeah Kaprielian was such a bummer. At least he's still just 23. I'm psyched to watch Severino and Montgomery the rest of the year. Montgomery looked real good for his debut.

 

Severino looked p. Good but who knows if it'll hold up. Montgomery, who knows. That's the advantage to just letting guys play though, I'm glad joe took the reigns off judge. They should call up Adams or avecado by the end of the year. I'm curious if they'll trade Tanaka, being that I doubt they keep him.

 

I was at the game last night too. Felix was so freaking good. And other than Elvis, everybody looked baffled by Diaz's 100mph fastball/90mph slider combo.

Also Haniger is GOAT.

 

Yeah none of these guys are certainties. But gotta see what they have. That much of a strikezone for Judge, he's gonna strike out but he seems to have a great mindset and composure. I'm not worried about him too much anymore. I heard Adams looked pretty good so far, sure he'll be up sometime this year. And Frazier and Torres should be close. I think Andujar already has three errors this year, he still seems like a bit of a project. But I'm all in on seeing these prospects and dealing with whatever happens for a year or two til they know exactly what holes they have to fill. This team already feels better than last years though.

Idk how I feel about Tanaka. He hasn't been great but if he gets back to his normal self I imagine he has to opt out. That elbow could go anytime, I don't think it's smart to give him a big deal after that. You could definitely see Cashman deal him but if they're at the top of the division, that would be real ballsy. Definitely wouldn't rule it out depending what happens though.

 

Verlander sucking it up today. Not the team to do that against.

 

We are 10 games into the season and people are using stats to make arguments... Tigers Twitter can be rough.

 

Fuck yeah. Ender on pace for 53 bombs this season. Stats don't lie!

 

Francona is so smart with Andrew Miller.

 

RA Dickey. Pure garbage. WTF is this signing? I expect him to lose his job by mid-May.

 

RIP Anibal Sanchez

 

Who are these guys calling the Braves game tonight? These dudes are worse than Chip and Joe.

 

DeGrom is so good

 

Wow that 8th inning turned things around quick.....

 

this made me laugh

edit: Probably funnier with the caption: Greg Bird paying tribute to Jackie Robinson with his batting average.

 

I'm at the batting cages tonight and holy shit I'm bad today. I'm missing everything in the 50/60 mph.

 

I was wondering why the hell everyone was wearing 42 today.

Also, didn't tune in to the Mariners game until the 6th inning when they were up 5-0. I turned it off and didn't check back until the bottom of the 9th, in which their closer pitched three consecutive strikeouts to end the game in a shutout. James Paxton has pitched 21 consecutive scoreless innings to start the season, breaking Felix's franchise record of 17 back in 2007.

I'm gonna keep not paying attention to them as long as they win I guess

 

ERVIN BABY

 

Eric Thames is mashing the ball lately holy crap

 

Enders is going the fuck off so far this season.

 

Don't look now, but, the Braves may never lose another game.
