Huh, I had no idea that Milwaukee and Chicago were that close to each other If a rainout in Washington means we miss Scherzer I’m not gonna complain that loud

It would take more time to drive to the airport, wait in security, board and deplane then it would to just drive. It's only ~90 miles

bawfuls posted:*high-fives from San Diego* I used to live in LA and still have family in San Diego, so I'd make that drive often. Chicago to Milwaukee is only about 30 miles shorter than LA to San Diego, but if you start both journeys during rush hour, it can take up to three times longer to get from LA to SD. I do not miss that traffic at all.

Can't say I'm pleased at the prospect of Jung Ho Kang returning. I don't care about the DUIs but the assault allegation in Chicago was damning and disturbing and it really took a toll on my enthusiasm when it hit the papers.

Angels fans just don't give a poo poo and would rather not go to those games. You can make up the cost of your whole season ticket package by selling sawx Yankee and dodger tickets. Having to yell and scream the whole game to drown out the away teams chant is not fun but cheering your team when on the road is fun so I get it. It doesn't help anything that the angels always poo poo themselves worse than normal vs NY/Boston.

I consider a rape allegation worse than a dangerous activity, yes. For instance, I would not cut off a friendship with someone who received a DUI but would with someone who raped another person.

I didn't think the Cardinals needed Machado before the season but they desperately need a bat to play somewhere on the IF.

It looks there were two different pictures taking within seconds of each other; there's two people in the first picture because the third person is obscured by the angle.

Is this actually in the rulebook? The ways of the Junior Circuit are obscure to me. Via the comment section on Deadspin ~ Shohei Ohtani's Starting To Reveal All His Powers

I believe so. The only way Ohtani can bat for himself is if the Angels forfeit their right to the DH for the whole game.

I still don’t feel bad about booing Ohtani at Safeco. It was definitely a sour grapes booing.

Yep, that sounds right. The DH rules are weird. I remember a game between the Mariners and the As a few years ago when the As' catcher got injured and had to leave the game. The As' only other catcher was the DH, so when he moved to catcher, the As forfeited the DH for the entire game.

You either elect to use the DH or you don't. If the pitcher bats, then you're not using the DH per the rules. It's kinda dumb but w/e. Maybe Ohtani will be good enough they can get the rule changed to be more accommodating of two-way players in the next CBA
