MLB 2024 Season

[WhiteTrash]

Can we all just give the White Sox a "tip of the cap"? Not only 20.5 games out but, more impressively, 10.5 games out of 4th place by May 25th.

This is HS baseball, not MLB, but it's still pretty amazing: The center fielder tags a runner out ... at home plate!

I have a bet with a friend from Denver. Rockies vs. Sox, most losses wins the bet. I like my chances.

Heck, even their new PBP guy has somehow gotten off to the worst start he possibly could have due to a combination of incompetence and arrogance.  For someone who played college baseball, he has a startling lack of knowledge about the game and its history, and seems to have no feel for the weight of individual moments.

Ronald Acuña Jr. will miss the rest of the season after testing confirmed a torn ACL. Damn. Great player who is fun to watch.

Consistent incompetence across the franchise.

People made a big deal of it at the time, but the Kimbrel for Madrigal/Heuer trade was a dumpster fire for both teams.

I tried to warn Cub fans how much I hated Madrigal at the time of the trade, and how terrible a ball player he was/is.

Angel Hernandez has made his last terrible call.

I'll never forget the heroic moment Schwarber stood up for the Brewers.

Here come those Redlegs.

Tonight on Hannity, the woke mob comes for Babe Ruth and Joe DiMaggio.

[Not all scoop users are created equal apparently]

Gibson batting .466 in 1943, good gravy

[wadesworld]

Ben Brown is certainly going to throw a no hitter tonight.

[4everwarriors]

Revenge of da Craigs, hey?

Revenge of da Craigs, hey?

Your first post this season in this thread is tonight.  Stunning.

[4everwarriors]

I can appreciate a fine pitchin' performance, hey?

[4everwarriors]

Wonder if Brown is speakin' ta Craig or is he too busy rippin' a urinal off the clubhouse wall, hey?

[wadesworld]

Brewers pitching has given up 10 runs in the last (nearly) 6 games. Some pretty fine pitching that we have seen.

Suspect 4elder has been warning Cubs fans what a bad manager Craig is after telling us that the last few years

And Giannis and Jordan Love should be traded.

Here come those Redlegs.

You mean, here come the Redbirds -- as in the St. Louis Cardinals!

Absolutely shocked at the resurgence this team has had as of late May. I honestly didn't think they had it in them.

It's a long season as as much of a Cardinals fan as I am, I'm not sure this is anywhere close to sustainable.

We shall see.

[Its DJOver]

Only conclusion you can really make about the NL Central so far is that nobody is great. A few decent teams that all have flaws.  88 wins is probably enough to take the division.

[PGsHeroes32]

Damn, that reporter tried to give Lopez a broken english cop out for stupidity and he doubled down

Twins were classy last year labeling his leave he took due to simply being terrible as mental health struggles. Nope, just a bad baseball player with a worse attitude.

[Uncle Rico]

Tough break at AmFam this week for 4elder
