Baseball 2018

Fenway, of course, never let you bring your own food. We'd sneak Quarter Pounders in in our pants, along with sophisticated mature refreshments.

Look at Mr. Fancy with JD. We were on more of an Old Crow budget.

Topes games are great. The thin air means more long balls, and it's just pretty seeing the Sandias out past the centerfield areas.

This is the stupidest rule change in the history of baseball. It ruins the game.

Yuk.

Hopefully it sucks enough that no one wants to try it in the bigs.

That rule isn't about the pace of the game -- it's about maintaining 40 man rosters and avoiding injuries. Nothing's going to ruin the farm like a 14 inning AA game.

Just end the game.

Just end the game.

"Tie" becomes an outcome? Intrigued, pitch this. (pardon the pun)

Give em 2 extra innings tops. If they can't do it by the 11th, then the game is a tie. If that game becomes relevant to playoff berths at the end of the season, the remaining innings will be played at that point. Otherwise, fuck it.

No, that would be the DH, but this is close. Shit, who cares how long minor league games are anyway. I think this is nearly as stupid though, why not follow NHL's lead and extra innings can be a timed 4 man pepper game with points given for clean fielding, followed by a hearty round of 3 flies up if necessary?

 

[Danhedonia]

Minor league teams can't afford to resume a game at a later date.

Are the Blue Jays going to suck this year?

I’d like to take the kids to a game and not sit in the 500 deck for stupid money.

PECOTA says yes.

John Sickels ranked the Blue Jays' farm system 6th overall. Take them to a Buffalo Bisons game.

Wait until the Jays play in Chicago, then make the trip to Comiskey/US Cellular/Guaranteed Rate Field/Park, and get some great seats for dirt cheap on the resale market. Probably still be cheaper for the whole trip than staying home Also, this may be the last season to get White Sox tickets for next-to-nothing, as they are building a pretty impressive young roster, and are going to be really good by next season or 2020.

I miss the days when we had the Baby Jays right here in St Catharines.
Heck, even The Stompers (the Jays’ NY-Penn team) had their stars.

Have the Nats lost the NLDS yet?

Fucking idiots. You'd have to pay me to park at the Oakland Port-O-let.

I hope every Giants fan took the discount, then yelled FUCK THE A's as they drove off.

Giants also won 5-1, bitches.

It ruins the game.

So does this. Fuck the Rangers.

That's so much more work than relish.
