So does he get invited to the HR derby this year? I hope he doesn't.
No, no. I've got a better idea. Invite him, but make him shag fly balls in the outfield with 8 year olds while the other guys hit.

God I love to hate me some Yankees.
I ask this only because you're the only person I am aware of on this board that actually lives in NYC, but are you going to catch the game at Yankee Stadium today?

Re: Game 3 Mariners Try and Take Over the Bronx

Miller sucks. Should have traded him when given a shot. Soto and Judge yay all they need is 1 runner on. I saw he was starting and I was like well there’s an automatic 4-5+ runs He’s been our best starter by ERA+ this year. You guys are insane lol I concur, Sumo. There’s nothing wrong with Miller. ...

Re: Former Mariners tracker

Announcers were pretty much inducting Carroll into the HOF during the playoffs last fall.. Sophomore slump? Then you've got studs like Bobby Witt Jr. I'd take him over JRod any day. I mean I love JRod, but this guy mashes the ball, and he is a fierce frigging competitor. He is in his third year, an...

Instead he hits DMo 9th last night because of a RHP even though he has and almost .800 OPS vs. RHPs. Fucking Caveman brain.

Re: Kelenic trade

In some ways I think platooning a player can be damaging if you're not a player who is used to sitting on the bench. I imagine it can disrupt rhythm getting so few at bats. It's not like they ever platooned him in the minors... Kelenic seemed to play his best when he was playing everyday for the M'...

Re: Kelenic trade

109 PAs vs. RHPs and 3 vs. LHPs. So even with almost zero exposure to LHPs he isn't a viable MLB hitter. I would think that platooning someone usually means they have a limited skill set, and/or significant deficiencies. I know Jerry is all hot to trot about platoons - perhaps to "keep guys fresh"....

Re: Game 2 - Mariners Rumble in the Bronx!!!!

Mariners win! We're HEROES!!! Even a 4-3 on this trip would be really nice. I say, let’s not be too self deprecating. Yeah, they’re the Skankees, and yeah they’ve got a monster lineup. Buuuut - we’ve taken 2 from a great team, and everyone thought we would just be the fluffers. Everyone said our to...
