Just because he got his 3,000th strikeout in April doesn't mean we should stop talking about CC Sabathia: Podcaster Extraordinaire, Team Dad and Future Hall Of Famer. https://twitter.com/Yankees/status/1123411307347238913

Looking forward to the Twins proving they're a typical faux-good team. Can beat lovely teams but fold into a ball when facing actual good teams.

It's no longer in the thread title, but I feel obligated to point out that Craig Kimbrel and Dallas Keuchel are still free agents.Bregor posted:N: Cubs not terrible! Lester's peripherals are trending in the right direction and Hamels has been way better than I expected him to be. Ditto Q who appears to be having a renaissance and is pitching like he did with the ChiSox with peripherals to match. Hendricks has been dogshit but he's always dogshit in April so I won't be worried unless he has another couple blowups. Darvish... I mean he finally threw six innings last start? idk I want to say it's just him slowly shaking of the rust but at this point I just don't feel comfortable with him on the mound. Also there's this: https://twitter.com/BleacherNation/status/1123323232285855745

Someone caught an open page of the Jays' scouting report on Angel's starter Griffin Canning for last night's game. I've never seen an official scouting report before, I'm finding it very fascinating.  Watch out for that slutter, boys!

Multiple Cubs fans agreed to recognize the Cubs are in fact good once they surpassed .500. It's time to stop Cubs posting, friends. The Cubs are now good, arguably a top 5 team in baseball.

The Cubs are now good, arguably a top 5 team in baseball. Top five might be pushing it: 11 teams have more wins and the Cubs are only 6th in Run Differential. That said they definitely have looked better than the disaster that was their first week.

Seeing Giles on the saves leader board is annoying I would say he remembered how to pitch, but his worst FIP on the Astros was 3.08 so I'll say his luck has turned around instead Also when the question was asked I predicted the Cubs would be over .500 and the Red Sox would not when April ended

Is that something for the hitting coach to prep the team that was prepared by scouts or is that something that'd go to the broadcast booth? I am surprised we haven't seen this kind of thing more often.

I wasn't posting last night but I'm sure everyone watching the game was talking about this: lil Vlad is nervous. He earned 2 BB on 2 AB last night - his eye is obviously still as good as it ever was but when he decides he's going to pull the trigger, he can't hold back and swings at stuff way outside the zone. e: poked through the gdt and nobody was talking about it because nobody watches the angels lmao Zigmidge fucked around with this message at 16:09 on May 1, 2019 |

I am surprised we haven't seen this kind of thing more often. Guy who posted it said it was open and visible through a window when he went touring around the stadium during bp. It's kind of a super huge oops on the Jays staffs part.
