it's a heavy lift, but i'm confidant in Spoeank's ability to be unbearably smug about an Astros championship despite their Giants fandom

Instead of this circle jerk we should be laughing about the Padres using 11 pitchers to give up 12 runs last night

It's shocking! I love the Astros now! They are the best team ever and I'm glad they cheated and got away with it!!! Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa are my best friends in the world!!!

After the Bauer poo poo in the playoffs, a lot of Braves fans were on Twitter begging him to come here iirc. Not convinced those arent the dudes alts, but also I know very well that I should always be disappointed and expect the worst from other Braves fans.

Bauer constantly talked about year to year free agency being the best avenue to getting paid, but I think we're seeing the real reason he wants year to year free agency

if Spoeank actually was a Houston fan I'd be cutting them some slack since, y'know, it's pretty loving hard to not support your team even when they do lovely things and/or employ lovely people

but jumping on the "lol I hope they win because it'll be funny/make people angry" bandwagon just makes you sound like a shithead imo

Bauer would be a natural fit for AA's signing strategies, I think the only good thing about him being on fire this year is he probably priced himself out of the Braves' budget.

I largely think Bauer is an idiot and his whole gimmick is essentially "U mad, bro??" personified but I do appreciate him being vocal on the kids having fun stuff even if its not in good faith because it helps normalize kids having fun while stigmatizing headhunting/unwritten rules and thats a thing baseball needs more of.

I also thought him throwing the ball over the fence was legitimately funny because it was so drat petulant.

I like the dodgers, but I rarely ever post in SAS.

love to hear my co-workers who are also ostensibly dodgers fans say stuff like "Kenley keeps pulling that poo poo after his tommy johns" after game 2 and I just don't know where to start

sorry, when i say like the dodgers, i mean that I have been living in constant pain since I was 2 years old in 1988

One thing I do enjoy about living in LA is that Dodgers fans seem to hate the Dodgers and poo poo on Kershaw almost as much as Giants fans do lol.

too true. It's a Lakers town for sure. My heart aches for clayton. His mortality makes me love him even more. Still, please no more relief appearances, unless there is another loving 18 inning game, then i guess maybe still no.

Jesus Christ, if the Astros make it to the Series despite having an under .500 record I don't know what I'll do. Please stop them! I'll even root for the Yankees to make sure it happens!

God, if you let the Astros lose the next series, I promise I'll go to church once the Pandemic is over.

As a former Astros fan I don't know how the fans of that team can take it. An under .500 record and still making it to the playoffs. It's utterly shameful and I'm embarrassed for my old team. Shameful. Can you imagine that rear end in a top hat hack Carlos Correa talking poo poo with a record like that? It's gonna happen. Please humble those fucks.
