That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it
MadBum winning the SS was such a slam dunk that I was only a little worried it would go to Bartolo Colon in the way that the ugly girl gets named prom queen in movies.

Just when you thought voters were evolving, they give Adrian Gonzalez an award for RBI and ABs.

11:13: Despite Gio Gonzalez warning, "Never mix your sparkling juices," Bryce Harper opens another bottle of sparkling grape and mixes it with sparkling cider.

1:07: Harper walks to the 7-11 and orders an all-syrup Slurpee.

1:10-3:05: Harper has no recollection of this time. Aliens?
Really happy for Rendon. He's been playing well and is fun to watch at 3B.

As much as I would have liked Lucroy to win the SS, truth is his terrible July cost him to award. Yadi winning the GG over him is still bullshit though.

SKA SUCKS
It's honestly possible that Luc is the best catcher, when considering both offense in defense (you can at the least make a compelling case) but Posey and Yadi are probably better at each respectively.

Jonathan Lucroy should be traded to the Boston Red Sox so he can win awards more easily in the national spotlight. This is a deal that helps everyone.

MLB has a fan-voting award, the Heart & Hustle award:

http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/fan_forum/he...141108_35275937

It has a lot of people you'd expect on there, like Skip Schumacher, Dustin Pedroia, Brett Gardner, Don Kelly and Dee Gordon. I kinda want to mass vote Jason Heyward because of that "Bryce Harper: Conservative Hero" article a few years ago.

Holy hell, just read that Conservative Hero article, what the gently caress? I'm all for voting Heyward.

quote:

Or even Obama, who went from Hawaii to Harvard to the White House and never seems to have had to slide head-first into a base his entire life.

The icing on the cake, promoting head first sliding as a core conservative value.

If you can witness a batter-runner stretching a single into a double and not immediately associate it with the glory of the Republican party and conservatism in general, then you are a terrorist who gay-marries Muslims to turtles in ceremonies held at the Church of the ACLU. Also, guns.

Republicans slide head-first into bases, hit doubles, and kill liberalism one rookie play at a time.

Democrats? They are just a bunch of designated hitters, waiting for a dropped third strike so they can sneak off and take first base while the catcher's back is turned.

My serious and important opinion on this serious and important award is that it should be won by Josh Harrison and also renamed the Josh Harrison Award.

e: and also that it should be awarded yearly to baseball's best utility infielder
