i don't like the roof on the dbacks stadium because they keep it just under 80 with the roof closed and that feels really hot to be "inside". the alternative is roasting your nuts off though... also it leaks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crHWOREgo9U

Safeco is cool as hell and I'm looking forward to making my September A's v. M's trip an annual thing. But pretty much anything is cool as hell when you're coming from the Coliseum.

N: Hunter Pence's scooter got stolen from the Make-A-Wish foundation, everyone has the flu, their flight got delayed six hours, and the Giants' charter plane landed next to Trumps'. V: Feels like an odd year.

Isn't there usually a midseason trade / call-up that propels the Giants' even year bullshit into greatness?

hifi posted:wow, hellickson is the opening day starter for the phillies? he was 3rd in the rotation last year on a team that had josh collmenter start opening day quote:tl;dr - It's Maikel Franco's violent baseball killing swing, a bunch of guys you thought weren't in baseball anymore and if they were definitely weren't Phillies, some guys whose names you'll gently caress up for 6 months, and Ryan Howard's bones. I just want to be clear that I loving nailed this and am now officially your source for every bit of Phillies information. He is the intersection in the Phillies starting rotation between talent and experience. He and Charlie Morton have literally 90% of their major league starts. If everything breaks right he might be the 4th best pitcher in the current rotation, but there is no goofiness in him being the first starting pitcher for this season. They also set it up so Hellickson gets opening day and Nola gets the home opener. Remember, Opening Day Starter is an honorific, not a stat.

axeil posted:It can't be as bad as last season at least. Right? My dude, it's gonna be so much better. Young players coming up and securing spots on the team of the future is so much better than trying to figure out who to trade to acquire those young players. Team's still gonna suck, the bullpen is designed to be a tire fire. It'll be a much more cohesive and purposeful form of sucking though. They have a more than decent chance to not finish last, but not a real good chance of finishing third.

Considering last year they had a cheeseburger with funnel cakes or grilled cheese sandwiches for buns at the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers game, that sausage is pretty much health food around these parts. e: Oh, and this year they have a 1 1/3 burger sandwiched between a sausage, pepperoni, and bacon pizza that's cut in half.

I got to see Hamels' no-hitter in person when I was in Chicago so that was pretty incredible. Sadly it's the only happy memory I have of last year. After the Hamels trade got finalized and Utley got sent away I stopped caring. I'm excited to see all the young guys this year, much more interesting than watching the once-greats shamble along.

I was able to watch Saturday's Angels (spring training) game on my phone but couldn't watch last nights regular season games that were on ESPN. I do have time warner cable so I'll likely be covered for most games... Nice that it doesn't use data though, I don't bother with unlimited. Now that MLB.tv and youtube are free-data services I definitely don't need unlimited.
