Number one with a bullet best thing about the Yankees in 2015 was Alex Rodriguez literally flipping people's opinions of him. Arah

Intruder posted:Anyone who had a strong negative opinion about him probably didn't have their mind changed just because he owned like he always owns I seem to remember a lot of people getting really mad at the Yankees because A-Rod tried to be a good team player and do stuff like show up to ST early and the Yankees turned him away and were generally being dicks to him. There were a bunch of, "I never thought I would see A-Rod as a sympathetic figure but here we are" articles. And then he cracked a billion dingers.

Time to play "Guess the BP Annual blurb" “As the Six-Fingered Man once told Prince Humperdinck, ‘If you haven’t got your health, you haven’t got anything.’ Now that [this guy] has his legs underneath him, he’s once again torturing big-league pitchers, getting on base at a historic pace, launching bombs, leading the league in walks, sorting through pitches like a pile of unripe avocados and generally doing whatever the hell he wants at the plate.” “Investing in relievers is like buying a two-pack of Starburst. Math dictates you have a 75 percent shot at hitting on one red or pink or at least finding a replacement-level orange, but goddamn if you don’t come up double yellows time and again. [This guy] was cherry with the Braves, posting a 2.25 ERA in 49 innings and resuming his former closer role, but after the Dodgers acquired him as part of the Alex Wood deal, he turned out to be a total lemon.” “From a baseball perspective there is no way a sane person could describe [this guy]’s season as disappointing. Layoffs like his would destroy mortal men, but [this guy] returned to the lead (sic) with a vengeance and became the personification of old man strength, even if he sputtered a bit down the stretch. However, from a fan’s perspective there was a bit of a letdown as [he] missed the chance to be the greatest villain in the North American sporting landscape.” "There are power hitters, and there is [this guy]. We always knew his tree trunk made a special kind of thump, and thanks ot the dawn of public exit velocity data we know just how special his lumber really is. He hit the ball harder and farther than anyone else in baseball in 2015, duh, but with the average speed of a ball off his bat clocking in more than three full mph faster than any other hitter. To put that in perspective, the gap between him and second place equaled that between numbers two and 47. Sometimes, stats tell you who is best. Sometimes, they help you appreciate the extremely best." Joey Votto Jim Johnson Alex Rodriguez Giancarlo Stanton

R.D. Mangles posted:Jim Harbaugh is all fun and games until you root for a Big Ten team and then he is profoundly annoying. Michigan shouldn't get an amazing coach dropping from the sky like that, they should be forced to be stuck with Hoke forever. Yeah why would anyone just get rid of Harbaugh what kind of retard would make that move Ha Haha Hahahaha Ha.

Oh poo poo nobody tell Brian McCann about this rule 4.06 (3.09) No Fraternization Players in uniform shall not address or mingle with spectators, nor sit in the stands before, during, or after a game. No manager, coach or player shall address any spectator before or during a game. Players of opposing teams shall not fraternize at any time while in uniform. It'll be a bloodbath

purkey posted:That wasn't really complimenting Bumgarner. It's amazing that their options were so poor at the end of the season. The whole team died at once so it was pretty drat bleak out there. Also it was only a handful of times including a meaningless PA in game 162.
