2015 MLB Regular Season Thread

I figured we needed a thread for all our in-season non-Twins related thoughts...

 

I'll start everyone's year off right with a little piece of baseball porn that is known as Andrelton Simmons, or Simba:

Isn't that kind of what this whole forum is? Non-twins baseball stuff, whatever it may be?

In design, yes, in actuality, nearly every single thread turns into a Twins-based discussion - Yu Darvish out for the season: can the Twins trade them Nolasco? Jurickson Profar out for the season: is he a buy low for the Twins? Pete Rose considered for reinstatement somehow can devolve into a discussion on the front office and spending.  Just my personal observation.

Another brilliant catch for the thread:

 

Arenado reels in amazing catch

I'm not sure what the purpose of this post is. There is no way the Twins will trade for a third baseman with Sano on his way soon.

More baseball porn from Simmons:

The Royals-A's bad blood is getting interesting.

 

All over a routine slide that is not dirty in any way, but apparently the Royals have some fight in them this year for some reason as they've already been involved in about five incidents on the field this year.

Carlos Rodon has been called up by the White Sox.

Josh Hamilton files for divorce from his wife.  I think he simply has a lot of stuff going on in his life right now.  Certainly makes the Angels look worse for piling on.

Addison Russell up to play 2B.

 

Twins and Royals expected to kickoff on time, as the forecast calls for a high of 71 with partly cloudy skies.

David Ortiz with his 500th home run. Good for him!

 

Begin the front office pile-on now...
