RIPPA Posted June 17, 2022 Author Posted June 17, 2022 Anthony Rendon will miss the rest of the season as he is having surgery on his wrist Guess its a good thing the Nats didn't re-sign him. It allowed them to spend money on Stephen Strasburg Oh.... 1
BobbyWhioux Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 just merge the Angels and Nats into one franchise called The Snakebit already
Craig H Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 The Portland team should be named the Battered Bastards. It won't happen, but I'd love it. 1

RIPPA Posted June 18, 2022 Author Posted June 18, 2022 The Braves had won 14 straight The Cubs had lost 10 straight So of course the Cubs won 1-0
RIPPA Posted June 18, 2022 Author Posted June 18, 2022 The Brewers have DFAed Lorenzo Cain Quote The Brewers have designated Lorenzo Cain for assignment. The move comes on the same day that he reached 10 years of MLB service time. Cain and the club came to a “mutual decision” about today’s roster move, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com (via Twitter). Jonathan Davis was selected from Triple-A to take his roster spot, per the team. Cain is one of the most respected players in the game, evidenced here by the Brewers’ willingness to wait until he reached 10 years of service time before the DFA. Cain’s second tour of duty with the Brewers was absolutely a success, despite this season’s struggles. The veteran center fielder was in the last year of the five-year contract he signed with the Brewers when he left Kansas City as a free agent. It’s not clear at this time what the future holds for Cain, but from his comments here*, it did not sound like he would be quick to find another club. * - said comments (he sure sounds like he is ready to retire) https://twitter.com/AdamMcCalvy/status/1538219818146574337?s=20&t=ClVS1m48ZzWrOCzlLTLRzg
onelegbrynn Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 Looking at the Reds this year and I have absolutely zero clue who their representative(s) will be for the All-Star Game. The default pick would be Joey Votto based on name value. Tyler Stephenson seemed to be the leading candidate for the ASG but now that’s he’s injured … no clue. Maybe Brandon Drury, Kyle Farmer or Tyler Mahle?

Maybe Brandon Drury, Kyle Farmer or Tyler Mahle? Votto is hitting under .200. Unless the game was in Cincy and Reds fans were stuffing the ballot box - he isn't on the team. This MLB article (https://www.mlb.com/news/each-team-s-most-deserving-2022-all-star) thinks it would be Drury. I personally would say Farmer is better but 3B in the NL is an easier path (especially since it looks like Manny Machado is gonna be out for a bit) Normally managers tend to just randomly fill slots with RP but good lord no one should look at Cincy's bullpen
Dolfan in NYC Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 Gerrit Cole took got 7 1/3 innings of no hit ball. Of course, Michael Kay jinxed it because he's Michael Kay. The Yankees are the first team to 50 wins.
Mister TV Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 Oneil Cruz who'll be traded for prospects in a few years made his Pirates debut last night, 96.7 mph throw from short to first.

The Yankees are the first team to 50 wins. The 50-17 start is the 3rd best 67 game start in franchise history - matching the 1998 team Also the best in the majors since the 2001 Mariners Yay for the 98 reference. Boo for the 01 reference
RIPPA Posted June 21, 2022 Author Posted June 21, 2022 The Rays would also like to forget that game as they lost two outfielders as both Manuel Margot and Kevin Kiermaier to injury Now Kiermaier being out probably helps the lineup but with Margot - who hurt his knee crashing into the OF wall - the Rays expect him to miss "significant time"
Cobra Commander Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 meanwhile Kyle Farnsworth looks like he's about to debut in the late 1980s WWF
Death From Above Posted June 22, 2022 Posted June 22, 2022 This entire game was a total umpiring mess, but Jesus Christ. 1
John from Cincinnati Posted June 22, 2022 Posted June 22, 2022 Went both ways, but Santi IMO had grounds to swing at his head when he did it again in extras. Ump show of the highest order.
Death From Above Posted June 22, 2022 Posted June 22, 2022 Oh yeah literally anything outside was a strike all night, it was abysmal.

Dolfan in NYC Posted June 22, 2022 Posted June 22, 2022 @Mark is clearly a member of GI Joe and thus hates @Cobra Commander 1
madl Posted June 22, 2022 Posted June 22, 2022 More like I clearly didn’t read the posts above mine. No slight intended.
Travis Sheldon Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 Farnsworth obviously has said many prayers and taken copious amounts of Hulk Hogan Complete Multi-Vitamins. #notsponsored 3
