Profar didn't use PED, he just trained with Tatis, Sr.

Captain Log posted:Also, Eric Hosmer always had a reputation as a clubhouse cancer. I wonder if they were correct?! Actually, he didn't. Everyone in KC and San Diego loved him.

It's hard to criticize Campbell too harshly when Merrill signed that contract after Witt got $280 and Tatis $340. The Padres should put a C on his chest.

Cimber posted:I'm a Mets fan and we are pretty tired of being the forgotten step-child in NY to the Yankees. They have a pretty long shadow in the area, and it annoys a lot of us to no end that they keep yapping about their 27 world series wins that 70 percent of the fan base was only alive for 1 of. Meanwhile we get shunted off to the side as an afterthought. Seventy percent of Yankees fans are between 24 and 14?

I wonder if Ottavino still thinks he would strike out Babe Ruth.

bawfuls posted:The headlines on that MLB page sidebar someone posted aren't even about game results, aside from a the Dbacks 2-out 5-run comeback, which is more about the remarkable comeback than anything else. Those headlines on MLB.com are largely about highlighting noteworthy details from the day's games, not the game results themselves. Stuff like "top prospect gets first W" or "slumping player breaks out with big game" or "star lives up to hype on bobblehead night" etc. Roki having his best start so far, particularly with how rough his first two were, falls squarely into that category of story. "Team scores 16 runs" seems pretty noteworthy.

Everyone who doesn't respond to everything with "Lighten up" is long gone.

Sydin posted:The Dads closer Estrada is a former Cubs top prospect they unceremoniously dumped off their roster for nothing because he struggled for ~10 innings in 2023 and he immediately went on to figure it out and become one of the most dominant relievers in the game with tippy top shelf stuff. Even better, he's their seventh inning reliever.

exquisite tea posted:All 97-whatever years of pitchers being forced to bat in the National League were worth it just to see Bartolo Colon hit a single home run for the Mets. Especially because it led Tatis to the Padres.

explosivo posted:So how long does Brandon Hyde last? The macro-view problems for the team aren't his fault but it really doesn't seem like anyone's giving him anything. He always sounds mildly disappointed in the post-game interviews. I'm just not getting the sense that he knows how to deal with this death spiral. The Orioles are too milquetoast to fire him.
