  1. Good to see Kohl getting some swinging strikes
  2. It's Martini Time is pretty good Reverend Horton Heat album though.
  3. Getaway lineup to open the series ... hmm
  4. That's all subjective. Urena's statement leaves reasonable doubt. The fact that these journalists, yeah the ones making a big deal out of it to create a stir, can't even agree on the level of control that Urena supposedly has with his pitches casts further doubt. The fact that the manager had dinner with Acuna's dad doesn't really matter. Sanchez being the pseudo-daddy doesn't matter either. It's all a bunch of sensationalism due to the fact that Acuna has been a human highlight reel lately.
  5. Look who's in the lineup for ATL today. Much Ado About Nothing
  6. Just because it's personal for you doesn't mean that this HBP is any worse than the hundreds of other on-purpose HBPs. I was at a game this year when Porcello beaned Escobar in his first PA when he was on fire at the time. The boo birds came out for Porcello, as well as many other expletives. When Betts came up, some people yelled out "hit him". Didn't happen, but now it's over. This shouldn't be a story in a couple days, and calling for a suspension is asinine.
  7. Or Newcomb could just plunk Realmuto next time around
  8. Players getting hit by pitches has always been part of the game. Only the neo-sensitive crew make a big deal out of it. Acuna can take his lumps with the rest of them. Nolan Ryan hit 158 batters, and you can ask Robin Ventura what happens when you didn't like it. Acuna is on my opponents fantasy team, so the timing worked out for me.
  9. You know how the season is going when almost a third of the posts are about players who didn't even play in the game that was recapped in the OP. Impressive afternoon from the bullpen. Rogers is looking like a real weapon against lefties late in the game.
  10. I see a lot of people are in May's corner for said role. With his mix of pitches, I could see him being the extinguisher type that then goes on to pitch 1-2 more innings. I hope Molitor can open up his mind on bullpen use. Perhaps an offseason exercise of watching Milwaukee games would be of benefit.
  11. Way to go bullpen! I had this as a split, but the two game sweep is solid against a solid team.
  12. Forsythe was so bad for the Dodgers; his entire zone on gameday is still either light or dark blue.
  13. Rogers has been almost automatic of late. I was a little worried with Bell turning around to bat right-handed, but worries extinguished.
  14. I would think May gets the 8th with the top of the order coming. EDIT: Nope
  15. Fireman Duffey gets the call again EDIT: And it's such a slow thread that I can also report ... He delivered!
  16. Wow, this is three games in a row against decent teams that Berrios has fallen apart. Not a good sign.
  17. As long as it isn't Gordon .... He's been sucking at AAA
  18. Lot of pitches to get those three outs
  19. I'm not sure what you mean in the second sentence of the second paragraph. 1) Twins fans were down on Sano this offseason. 2) Sano made poor decisions during the offseason. If it's #2 and is an allusion to the allegations, that's simply untrue. Alleged events supposedly took place in 2015.
