RIPPA Posted July 7, 2017 Author Share Posted July 7, 2017 Nats/Braves had a 3 plus hour rain delay where it never rained as they kept being IT'S GONNA RAIN! IT'S GONNA RAIN!!! and it never did Now to be fair - it was monsooning at my place. But I am also about 30 miles west of the park So yeah - Atlanta was bitter at DC And it is another example of that new tweak where MLB has given clubs the leeway to basically stall in an attempt to preserve starters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Its weird that it was game 1 of a 4 game series vs a division opponent. Why not just play a DH or later in the year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Make them play a Triple Header as punishment. Screw your starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean you could tell it was gamesmanship as they didn't even put the tarp on the field until two hours into the delay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Marlins sales update: Richard Chaifetz has left the Derek Jeter group and has publicly disclosed why: Jeter wants control of the team while not putting up anywhere near the amount of money the other investors think he should. Tagg Romney's group has dropped out. The current leader is Miami billionaire Jorge Mas. His organization is most famous for accusing the Miami Herald of having Cuban spies in their staff.

Ryan Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 It's the fuckin' Marlins, is it really worth caring if they move to Montreal? Also, sweep averted! Yankees fail to do anything with a shit ton of errors and a rain delay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Great E:60 feature this morning on the classic Homer at the Bat Simpsons show featuring legends like Wade Boggs, Jose Canseco, Ozzie Smith, and more. And while it is ceremonial, it is great that Homer Simpson is in the Hall of Fame and not Pete Rose http://www.espn.com/video/clip/_/id/19905072/categoryid/3060647 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 How the hell are the Brewers 51-40 at the break with this pitching staff. What a strange league we're in.
