Not-So-Obnoxious Baseball Thread

(especially if Gamel can't get his **** straight).

Take it to the bank- It will be Hart at first his year, cause Gamel will be a washout.

You sound like a parent... my child isn't fat... just big boned.

You sound like sour grapes...

This is going to rock MLB's world. Braun is the first in history to win an appeal on MLB's performance enhancing drugs.

I figured he'd get off with a light suspension (prolly 10-20 games) but never expected this.

Great news!!!

So will cabrera follow fielder or the other way around? (batting order, not at the buffet line)

Right now it's easier to predict the buffet line... I think Cabrera will allow Fielder to go first. That way he can "carb" up like Fielder. Batting order I see Jackson, Boesch, Cabrera, Fielder. I think it would be embarrassing to watch Cabrera run past Fielder on the bases if he batted behind him.... so 3) Cabrera... 4) Fielder

Great news that a cheater got off with no punishment?

Why do you say that he's a cheater? Do you believe that MLB's process is flawed? Did the panel reach the wrong conclusion? On what basis do you make that statement?

Interesting article on the topic this morning

Braun decision unsatisfactory

Im gonna check in as a Twins fan, its gonna be another rough season for us I think. At least we have a nice stadium I can go to, that serves Summit.

 

[passedpawn]

Heading over to Joker Marchant next weekend to watch the Tigs play the Mets.

I'm a recent xplant and have only been to maybe 3-4 games. They sell Surly anywhere? If they do, I'd assume its like $18 for a can (or tap)

[WildGingerBrewing]

Five weeks until Opening Day!!!!!! I have my tix. Anyone else going to make it to their team's Opening Day?

Go RANGERS

 

[Valk0001]

Just so everyone knows, this is the year that Da Cubbies go all the way with the new management and new team. Maybe we can learn what those Red Sox learned a few years ago. GO CUBBIES!!!!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Thanks, dude. I needed a good laugh!

Glad the Astros are still in NL Central so I can see the Crew come to town. Looking to get to all the games this year.

 

[Valk0001]

But didnt the Brewers need Rameriez, from the Cubs to build their flegling infield?

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Yu is pitching today!!! And finally it's on tv. There has not been one game shown in our area since spring training started. MLB is carrying the game today. I have the dvr set and will watch when I get home! Go RANGERS!!!!!

What is your point? He is not a Cub anymore.

Wanted to say hello to all in this thread, and also was curious if anyone uses the mlb app on their PS3, and if they liked it; I am considering paying for the subscription this year.

Hola from a SF fan (prepare for doom), and the MLB subscription has its ups and downs so far.

Ups: free app on iPad, iPhone & Android devices with a premium subscription (plus a few others I can't remember off the top of my head...). Can't complain there since it saves me $15 compared to last season.

Downs: I bought it earlier in the month after reading that they had Xbox 360 on board, but as of today (March 14), Microsoft has yet to release the MLB app on its marketplace, and the rumor is that Xbox will launch mid-month (thought still no confirmed date according to MLB).

Yeah, it's pre-season, but dammit: I want my beisbol! :cross:

 

[Homercidal]

Now with Fielder batting for the Tigs, I might try and watch more games.

If the Wings don't get their sht together soon I'll have nothing to do in a few weeks anyway.

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

Fantasy baseball draft tonight! Two weeks till Opening Day Woo hoo!!!

Went to a Phillies / Tigs game last week. Fielder was a no-show. Cabrera and the rest of the gang played into the 6th. Porcello was on the mound for you guys (against Cliff Lee!) and looked good.

 

[beersteiner2345]

Can. Not. Wait.

Went to the Cubs D'backs Cactus league game yesterday. I don't know much about the Cubs, but if that was any indication they are in for more of what they are so used to already.

I will now formally check in as a Rays fan. And a D'backs fan second.

 

[PEIYankees]

Checking in as a Yankees fan! If we can finally get a (decent) pitching staff, watch out!

To all the Pirates fans: Enjoy AJ........
