terribly missed opportunity.

the list of things that is wrong with the yankees is pretty long right now. but don’t get too excited. just imagine the draft picks they’ll leave unprotected in the rule 5 a few years from now!

Dangerboy just declared that Cashman is the root of all problems.

Its one thing to lose a game to a walk off when a batter beats your pitcher. Quite another to have your closer fill the bases and walk in the game winning run.

I am beginning to lose hope for the Braves.

[ex-powderbroker]

when the pitcher walks the bases loaded it’s pretty much the same.

anyway, it’s strange that the braves regressed so much too and that no one is covering it.

Watched Ohtani pitch last night, that guy is something. 98 mph fast ball, 68 mph slow curve, 98 mph fastball was one sequence, yikes.

[ex-powderbroker]

yah, not bad for the guy who’s (checks notes)... leading the league in home runs.

It’s a fucking shame the Angels are going to waste him like they’ve wasted Trout.

That's a really neat baseball black hole they got going there, isn't it?

In some ways it’s probably nice. Make a couple hundred million and never have any of the scrutiny you’d get across town at the Dodgers or with the Sox/Yankees. But if you’re an ultra competitive athlete I imagine it would kill you to never even sniff the playoffs.

i couldn't care less about either of the teams playing on ESPN, but my god, i love watchin joe kelly pitch.

[ötzi]

I was bummed when the BoSox let him go, I love that guy.

same. he was borderline un-hittable during those days too.

[ötzi]

The wild pitches just kept guys from getting too comfortable in the box.

[BmillsSkier]

Same thing worked for Ricky Vaughn.

[ötzi]

Strong resemblance there.

[Woodsy]

Kelly is such a fun addition to the Dodgers. been pitching great even tho we are finding ways to lose in FL. And his White House outfit and the story behind it was legendary.

Know more than a few Dodgers fans made it out to Anaheim to give Dugie & Kike' some love.

[Danno]

Is it possible that the Angels have 2 of the top 5 players in baseball and still continue to miss the playoffs?

Yes.

news today on local sports radio, yankees closer Aroldis Chapman has become the worst reliever since the spider tech clampdown. that's just awesome.

i didn't grow up hating the yankees, but just like the dallas cowboys; you love or hate them; no in between.
