strikeouts

mets at tigers

Cusb are going to get FUCKED by dindu protests

who /6pack/ here?

...

Cubs are in Oakland right now, so that my be a problem of it's own, but dindus live in the Southside, to that's the Whos problem. And when they want to march up to the richer parts of the city, they like the loop area (particularity Michigan Ave), which is by Soldier Field, and a good half hour away from Wrigley

>MLB Pipeline @MLBPipeline 6m6 minutes ago

>That was quick. #Indians No.4 Francisco Mejia doubles in 1st AB, ups hit streak to 47 games: atmlb.com/2azYbc3

Dindus have no reason to fuck Wrigley, they go to Michigan Ave and chimp out in the stores there

>Boston has pitching only in the very strictest sense of the word
>Doyers offense is only consistent against bad pitching
feeling alright about this series

I would sell my soul for a world series desu

> BRINGING SOLER BACK

tfw cubs fan

...

?

Shit player the Cubs upper management keeps trying to play. He's complete shit. Can't even play successfully at AA.

who /bettershapethefuckup/ here?

He's literally the most overrated pitcher next to verlander

who /doomedbecausebackupsuddenlygotelite/ here?

>mfw there is a parallel universe where front office caved and Price resigned with the Jays, kept Lowe, Revere, Navarro and Hendriks
>mfw they would probably be in the basement right about now

its really fucking weird, hes throwing his cutter and changeup more than ever, he should be getting more groundballs and less hard contact than ever, but the opposite is happening

shit player? he had a good year last year retard, but I think he's trade bait

>verlander
>overrated
user, I don't think I've seen anyone overrating him for at least the past year. he's shown his true colors–especially in Boston–and whatever other teams he inevitably gets dealt to will have to deal with it.
>mfw he pitches 58 shutout innings over one postseason and has a 52:8 K:BB ratio with 1.97 ERA/4.76 FIP

yeah, his FIP suggests he's been rather unlucky–about a run above what it would be normally be. Still, when your FIP is over 4.00, either way you should really be trying to clean up your shit.

that part about true colors and >mfw was referring to Price btw, not Verlander

Papa slam time

>Colin Rea will require Tommy John surgery, Green says

>Padres trying to finesse the Marlins

jays-royals where?

>tfw liriano gets btfo

>new york mess

Can't trade anymore. Shows what you know.

in the offseason retard

No one wants that sack of shit. He can't even compete at the AA level. He's done nothing but struggle this year. Sure you will keep eluding to his last year. Only cause he caught lightning in a bottle for the playoffs. He's a double play/strike out machine. His defense is awful. You can't even rationalize an argument without
B...b..but he was good for like 2 weeks of his whole career! He must be great.

You can still trade. Players have to clear waivers though.

>jints

That's not a trade at that point.

>Nate Schierholtz receives 80 game PED suspension
mlbtraderumors.com/2016/08/nate-schierholtz-receives-80-game-ped-suspension.html

>Who's

That was the most ABSTRACT bunt

Now test Miggy and the other Tigers

Dont be stupid

It's not a trade. If a player clears waivers he is dropped and any team and claim him. Lowest record gets preference.

Let me repeat myself
Dont be stupid

> I'm wrong so here is me trying to argue.

the potential alone makes him valuable, he's shown what he can do (September 2014, October, 2015), he just has yet to do it consistency

Teams are buying these types of players right now
>But while the types of veteran upgrades acquired by contenders were quite different, there was one central theme that seemed to run through almost every trade; buyers giving up on previously well-regarded players currently in the midst of devaluing themselves. Or, if you want to look at it from a more optimistic viewpoint, sellers targeting buy-low young talents who might have a chance to prove that their current struggles are just a blip on the radar.

His value isn't what it was during the 2014-2015 offseason, but he's still got plenty of value

JINTS WORLD SERIES IS NOW TAINTED

>If a player clears waivers he is dropped and any team and claim him.
No? If a player clears waivers then he can be traded or released. Teams claim players while they're on waivers, not after they've cleared waivers. And even in claiming a player, unless the waiving team is retarded, a trade is still made. If you're going to be a turd and argue about semantics, at least get it right.

Support group more likely

That was the joke, yes. Give yourself a gold star.

Nats

Over 350 pitches in the last 3 starts for Syndergaard, did not make the 7th in any of them

Hi. I'm user and my team is just
Hi user!!

Is he worse than Dusty Baker at protecting the health of his young pitchers?

It appears so

Favorite to win it all desu senpai

Messt in full just mode.

kek

Nats are a good team desu.

Cubs vs A's

His pitchers have shit mechanics to begin with but he's also awful at managing them. He literally wants to see Thor's arm burst

but not before
>[2014 WC Game pasta]

>trying to run on Jeff Francoeur

Is it safe to assume the Giants won't win a single series in the second half of the season?

Daily reminder the Toronto Blue Jays put their entire 2016 post season hopes in the hands of Francisco Liriano after Aaron Sanchez was moved to the bullpen

Angels Mariners

moncada hurt

webm pretty please, I get a hard-on for vids of OF assists and CS/pickoffs

>tfw we have become the Red Sox

lol

Texas Yankees a shit

Makes sense I guess
