Didn't the Cubs get Aramis Ramirez and Kenny Lofton, for, like, Jose Hernandez and a box of baseballs? That's a trade that would have had me seething were I a Pirates fan.

I'm an insufferable shitposter who does not deserve to root for such a good team. Also, this is what Matt Harvey thinks of me and my garbage posting.

If we get the first WC I quite like our chances with Syndergaard against the Giants, but we've got basically no chance against the Cubs if we've got to start Colon-Matz-Gsellman.

Unless MLB.TV thinks you're outside the US and Canada and live somewhere with more freedom, like North Korea.

Some games are available with the cable sign in but they're all available via the international feed.

In 11 games against the Braves, he's got 4 homers, 6 steals, and he's OPSing 1.300.

Fairly certain that's going to continue for the next decade or so.

Hey guys, not a bar but I'll be watching from the men's room at a (yet to be determined) Arby's location. Bring your own handle of liquor.

I have a Note, so the screen is big enough for all of us to watch if we huddle up. They're supposed to bring back the 5 for $5 deal so it should be a good time.

Ortiz doesn't have to stockpile his stuff or worry about testing any more so he went hog wild and is carrying his team to victory. I'm a little sad A-Rod don't do this as well.

If you mean like OTA on a TV antenna, that hasn't been the case in quite a long time. Not for the early rounds anyway.
