I think any team would put out a similar statement if a player went AWOL. Not sure why people think they smeared him or w/e.

STAC Goat posted:I feel like reactions to everything this season are over the top. Like I'm loving the gently caress out of Judge but like... its like 5 games. People yelling "MVP" and "GOAT" and I'm just curious to see if I have to look up if Mattingly and Griffey still have the record at 8 straight games with a HR. Well yeah, everyone's starved for baseball and the season is insanely short and could be cancelled at any time, of course people are overreacting. On that note, let me tell you about how Mike Yastrzemski will win NL MVP

I don't see what the Hamilton trade has to do with it. Billy Hamilton is a centerfielder and Cespedes is DHing this year.

Were players always supposed to self-quarantine or did that get added in after the Marlins outbreak? What are the rules anyway, are they supposed to literally confine themselves to the hotel room or their house? Can they hit up the grocery store, or go jogging?

Also there were a ton of articles about how the Astros were the greatest team of all time, with the best offense and rotation of all time, and their tank and rebuild was the model for other teams going forward, etc. Even before the trash can banging people were getting sick of the hype.

Yordan Alvarez activated and in tonight's lineup. As a fan of dingers I approve of this.

Tatis Jr. gonna win MVP but maybe Yaz will finish 2nd Hah, unless Farhan trades him at the deadline, which is in like 10 days lmao. What a weird bastard season.

Very interested to see Mize pitch. I think Giants fans are always gonna have an eye on him, because Panda hit that walkoff HR in the last game of the 2017 season, which cost us the #1 pick. Joey Bart also looks good tbf. Not expecting him, or any prospect, to dominate immediately, but they say he is extremely polished already. Threw a 9-inning no-hitter in his AA debut!

Highlights from this season are gonna look so weird in a few years Like you're watching a montage of Mike Trout walkoff home runs and they're all normal, and then there's a HR into some empty seats covered with a tarp. Or Kershaw strikes out the side to finish a CGSO and the team runs onto the field, and the camera pans over to... a bunch of cardboard cutouts with grins frozen in place.

Giants win their 6th straight, to finish the first half 14-16 and on a hot streak. That's right, we're halfway through the season already

TheFlyingLlama posted:Prior to the trade to san francisco Mike Yastrzemski was basically seen as a Quad-A corner OF. Solid defense, but not like, good enough to play center. Good eye, but the contact came and went and he maxed out at 15 home runs in the minors. Yeah you just never know. The Orioles probably wish they held on to Yaz, but then again, their best player this year is Anthony Santander, an OF they got from Cleveland in the rule 5 draft.

Lots of conflicting info on twitter. People are saying both teams walked off the field, but then both teams released lineups: https://twitter.com/hankschulman/status/1298778954392715266 , but maybe those are posted automatically? Or maybe there's like a power struggle behind the scenes right now? edit: https://twitter.com/CBSLA/status/1298782761378082816 The Pussy Boss fucked around with this message at 01:44 on Aug 27, 2020 |

That's one of the most amazing sports things I've ever seen, and yet in 2020 it's not even the biggest news of like, the last week. Things are happening so fast, feels like we're building towards some kind of change but I don't know what...

I'm sad that Large Baseball Man Aaron Judge can't stay healthy this year. Re-injured his calf in his first game off the IL, out for at least 3 more weeks.

Trevor Rosenthal is still in the big leagues? And pitching well enough that someone traded for him?

Gary Sanchez, who has hit .130 and struck out 41% of the time this year, gets the dreaded Vote Of Confidence from Brian Cashmanquote:The Yankees are standing by Gary Sánchez as their starting catcher, despite his offensive woes thus far this season. Cashman said that he believes a lack of consistent at-bats due to the stop-start nature of the season has hindered Sánchez, who entered play on Saturday batting .130.

Catching up on the trades that went down today. Seems like teams were basically giving away serviceable starting pitchers (Walker, Stripling, Ray, Minor), which makes sense I guess, since you're only getting them for a month. Except for Stripling; that trade surprises me. OTOH GMs were trading real prospects for mediocre relievers. Those RPs the Padres got from the Mariners look pretty blah, Orioles got a haul for Mychal Givens, the Royals got an actual prospect for Trevor Rosenthal, etc Giants didn't do much. Not surprising since our 2 biggest trade chips were Cueto and Gausman, who weren't getting us much in this SP market. And with the Giants hanging around the wildcard race, no need for a fire sale.
