MLB Chatter Thread

 


All sports should go back to how it was. You got paid shit so you actually gave it your all for the All-Star game check.
 
My family was driving from Wisconsin to the Jersey Shore for summer vacation. All I cared about was my father getting to the Cleveland Holidome in time to watch that game.
 
@Rev I don't watch a lot of Rangers games anymore, but every time I do, Heim isn't catching. What's up with that?

Yep. They are platooning Heim and Higashioka

Mostly DH.

They've already decided he's only a platoon guy?

And they usually don't do that with good catchers. Is he that mediocre on defense?

I thought he was better than that.

I think it wasnt about Heim. It was supposed to be adding the power of Higgy but that hasnt happened as of yet.

Plus Bochy will play as many catchers as he can.

What logic.

The Cowboys would easily have the most Super Bowl wins if they didn't have to reach that game to earn the trophy.

So if our hitting was what it was suspected to be with that fielding and that defense its faulty logic?

It works out because as of last week their record in games where the offense scored 4 runs or more it proves that very point. I would have to go find the tweet but it was some crazy record.

Found it. 29-6 when scoring 4 runs or more. Tied for 3rd fewest games where they scored 4 or more.

That's like claiming an NFL team would be the best team if they didn't have to play offense. It's only like half of the game itself.

Its stating what it could be. Not that we should have that record despite the offense.

And they could be the worst team in baseball if their defense wasn't so good. I see you're a glass half full kind of guy.

But its not and neither is the pitching. The offense is and it is acknowledged. The tweet is saying that while having the pitching and the defense what if they had the offense to go with that. Its just speculation on that one aspect.
 
I didn't take that tweet as some brag or claim that they're really close to being the best team in baseball. I took it as a frustrated "This sucks" that one completely inept part of the team is holding everything else back.

It has to be like being an Iowa fan those last few years when they had such great defenses but couldn't score anything. I know C-rock can relate.
