Right? He's a .265 career hitter!

No games for Marlins until at least Sunday.

I guess there is history between the Astros and Dodgers? Something about 2017.

Everyone involved is a total putz and that could have been a lot worse. Loved it though. 4 stars.

That incident was way overhyped last night. The first minute of NBA basketball will be more dangerous than that.

The only good part of that was “get back on the mound, little fucker”.

Dusty Baker is already my second favorite Astros manager of all-time, apologies to Larry Dierker.

How could Kelly not say, "Didn't you know what was coming?"

Posted: **Wed Jul 29, 2020 9:23 am**

I think with Kelly you give him credit for sticking his tongue out then getting it back in his mouth without biting a piece off.

Posted: **Wed Jul 29, 2020 9:23 am**

I would think a member of the 2018 world champions who also cheated would probably be smart enough to shut the fuck up. Instead, he threw at Bregman and ran away like the little fucka he is.

8 game suspension

So the rest of the season?

An observation: the fake crowd noise works in soccer broadcasts because it’s good background noise and the games are really like that. In baseball, it just sounds like someone is running a vacuum during the game.

Posted: **Wed Jul 29, 2020 7:51 pm**

I hate going all Team Giff here but that Kelly suspension is fine and it’s lucky that’s all we’re talking about. 100 just behind the guy’s head in a R vs R matchup is a fucking kill pitch.

Colin Moran adjusting well at 1st I see

Posted: **Wed Jul 29, 2020 10:19 pm**

Otani hit a home run off a pitch Vlad Guerrero would've let go by.

Booth did a good job of calling for the 4th or 5th replay to show if both of his feet were moving on contact. Wild swing.

Looking good.

Cards-Brewers now postponed..

How long before this sport is shutdown?

Soon I think. When NBA and NHL prove they can make it work in a bubble, MLB will be really embarrassed.

NFL better rethink its plan.

MLB players barely get near players on the opposite side. Just imagine some OL with COVID on an NFL team. He could give it to most of an entire defense and most of his teammates just during a game.

Posted: **Fri Jul 31, 2020 11:20 am**

Tigers scheduled to host Cardinals starting Monday. Probably should watch the game tonight, as it will be one of my last chances.

I'm hearing the Marlins got the 'rona after visiting a strip club.

Florida...

But the strip club was in the ATL when they were up there for exhibition games just before travelling to Philly, so...Georgia...

Posted: **Fri Jul 31, 2020 12:27 pm**

Remember the days of yore, back when the MLB thread was mostly about stuff that happened in the games?

Yeah kinda makes you wonder when you see those pics of the vapor coming out the linemen facemasks in cold weather games. Great photos but Rona clouds for sure.

He's worse than Bettman ever was. Or is. Is Bettman still a thing?

Posted: **Fri Jul 31, 2020 4:30 pm**

Bettman's been pretty decent the last 10 years or so. If not for Adam Silver seeming to mostly have it on the ball, could make an argument he's the best commissioner of the Big Four, which is scary.

Posted: **Fri Jul 31, 2020 4:58 pm**

Manfred: "We're extremely disappointed some members of the players association chose to engage in high risk behavior such as interstate travel, frequent use of transit centers and the sharing of airflow-restricted indoor spaces with upwards of 30 other coworkers and support staff."

Posted: **Fri Jul 31, 2020 5:40 pm**

Don't see how the Brewers-Cards are going to play tomorrow if players were positive today? If I was a player, I wouldn't wanna play.

Bettman will never live down the three (or more?) work stoppages on his watch.

ETA - nor should he

Your original point does have merit though. They did a great job on the restart.

Well best current commissioner I should have said. Yeah, his career legacy is tainted.
