MLB 2019

0-1. Over-hyped bust.

The Royals have a lefthander named Dick Lovelady

Couldn't make it to the game today, but everyone's really pumped.

Even the LA Teps are getting in on the action!

I wouln't boo Jr. under any circumstance in the world

also, I'm pissed he ain't ours.

[revbob]

who the hell is Luke Voit?

Were you asleep at the end of last season?

After getting on base about 17 times in 4 games against us it's unlikely I'll forget him again.

Yeah I keep hoping he's the real deal (so far so good) and not doing a Shane Spencer imitation.

I tried doing the reddit stream of a Yankees game last week and all was well until there was a pop up featuring a woman and a dog. If you ever needed another reason to hate people there you go. I'll stick to the pirate audio feeds for now.

Weird. I've never had anything like that happen when using a pirate stream. Ad & pop-up blocker on?

I tried it on my phone and was doing the reddit app it doesnt seem to block that shit natively.

Ah, I see. I've only ever done it using a regular browser on a computer.

the sox have finally become borderline watchable. Probably ruined their season, competitively speaking, with this start but I'll settle for some decent-to-watch baseball for the rest of the summer.

I know, who made it so it was Champion-Or-Failure? I just wanna have fun. Fuck you, Vince Lombardi.

I think I've argued here before that, with baseball's 162 game season, the playoffs are uniquely unsuited to reflecting the quality of a season for a team. Sure, the winningest teams (sorta) mostly get into the post-season, but from there it's a crapshoot where your season-long strengths and weaknesses may or may not be a factor for a few short series of games. What brung you here, won't get you there, so to speak. If you won a bunch of games over the course of the long haul that is a baseball season, does getting bounced in 3-5 random games diminish the year? It does, because we've been trained to believe it does, but it's not necessarily a very good reflection on the talent you just spent 162 games with.

Yeah. 2008 was a huge gutpunch that took a while for me to get over, which is ridiculous because it was objectively fun until one single series.

I honestly felt my team was truly the best in the league in 04, 05, 08, and 14. I guess my manager DID suck.

The very hyped 2004 Cubs ended the season so badly that I remember them having a losing record even though they actually won 89 games.
