OFFICIAL MLB 2022 THREAD

[BmillsSkier]

Only here to say that after I reluctantly wrote Kwan off as a flash in the pan who would have to work for years to become a solid asset, he promptly has reeled of a 412 BA over the last 7 games.

My brother was quite a ballplayer at one time. He predicted that Kwan would drop off once the major league pitchers learned him. That happened. Then he said it was Kwan's turn to learn the pitching and he'd come back. Seems like it's happening.

I'd like him to keep hitting because I am enjoying his story.

Ok, interruption over.

Kwan went 3-4 in Thursday night’s win and played a key role in last nights bottom of the 9th inning comeback with for the Guards.

For being the youngest team in baseball they sure are a blast to watch. So much energy.

Oh, and Josey, he’s not bad either.

Since Memorial Day they’ve won 10 out of 13.

Heading to the Bravos-Bucs this afternoon.

ITS CLAYTON KERSHAW DAY!!

Too bad he wasn’t there last night

[m98b5e]

Too bad he wasn’t there last night

To be fair, Buehler is clearly the better pitcher at this point.

[irul&ublo]

Buehler is scheduled for an elbow MRI today

[Woodsy]

Should be, was last year

Records rarely lie with a team this good

[irul&ublo]

Adios pelota!!!! Gigantes take early lead!

[dunfree]

Too bad he wasn’t there last night

wasn’t there tonight either

[Woodsy]

wasn’t there tonight either

Not vintage Kershaw but final line in his first game back since May 7: 4 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 4 K. He threw 71 pitches.

[m98b5e]

wasn’t there tonight either

He pitched alright I thought. Just no support.

[Woodsy]

Brutal beat(s) by the Giants.
Dodgers keep leaving that many Runners on, they may not make the wildcard

[BmillsSkier]

Enjoyed the Back Porch at the Bravos game on Saturday; private bar and buffet was nice but honestly the coolest part was being right next to the cameras that show the crowd and tv audience every behind the pitcher view, 1st and 3rd.

Oh, and some dude beat The Freeze which was awesome.

Yeah, but they won the payroll contest!

[Bunion 2020]

What do Chop House seats go for?

[BmillsSkier]

What do Chop House seats go for?

I'm honestly not sure, our firm had rented out the Back Porch (which is the new patio/bar/lounge they added next to the Chop House) for the game. Really great space but the fireworks for home runs and strike outs will startle the shit out of you the first time they go off from the roof above you.

[Bunion 2020]

Ahhhh! Looks like a nice view. My sister lives about 4 miles east of Truist and said the fireworks Friday night work her up.

[Woodsy]

Yeah, but they won the payroll contest!

Yankees have proven for a dozen years that doesnt equal rings...

[Woodsy]

I really need to see a Braves game from the Omni pool deck

Winning the world series is pretty hard with the expanded playoff format and mlb's reluctance to punish cheaters, but the Yanks haven't led spending in a full season since 2013 (they outspent the dodgers by 4M in 2020 with 69M).

I wish they would spend more and smarter, embarrassing having the dodgers top the list with 6 of the last 10 and boston and ny sharing the other top spots.

I wonder what west coast team is going to show Judge the money?

I hear Anaheim likes spending lots of money.

[irul&ublo]

I hear Anaheim likes spending lots of money.

Nah, they’d wait until he’s 35 before offering a huge multi year deal

[ex-powderbroker]

perfect, maybe a huge 5 year deal could keep him the bronx

Nola on the mound tonight.

Schwarber you big beautiful baby

[BmillsSkier]

Did Schwarber and Joe Buck split up?

That’s so sad.



What the fuck is in Jose Abreu’s beard? Someone should tell him we already had a Capt Lou Albano and he was wonderful.

[Supermoon]

Did Schwarber and Joe Buck split up?

That’s so sad.

I think that’s why Buck quit baseball. Couldn’t do it without Schwarbz

[Supermoon]

6-1 in the eighth, on a Tuesday night, against the As, and place is still packed singing Sweet Caroline.
