rags

We have a nice streak of winning Opening Day, but Jays are always a headache. And now they have STEVE PEARCE.

For now, although I turn back to /basketball/ tonight and then I'm done until the Bucks get eliminated or win the Finals or when CBB is back

I got nothing

RIP Buzz and Knoxie :(

jints

Hazel Mae has the dugout interview grace of a gorilla falling down a flight of stairs.

>#bringbackbarry

>orioles playing Becks "Loser" theme again

how original guys you did this last year :/

GIVE ME ONE REASON THE COLORADO ROCKIES WONT WIN THE PENANT

and we have a nice losing streak of opening days so the win should be guaranteed.

If they're ahead after the brutal May schedule, I'm ready for it.

can any padres fans tell me what they think of Bud Black?

pitching is shit
batting is shit
defense is shit
mark renolds can't hit fingers every day

>it's an NL Least episode

85 wins the division baby let's get it.

>booing gibby
>booing travis
>booing jash

>booing gibby
bomb baltipoor

>filthydelphia being relevant in baseball again

nope

Was Fernandez a foot guy?

JAYS O'S GAMETHREAD

He's a solid guy. He got the axe not because of anything he did wrong as much as new ownership just needing to blame someone when he wasn't able to get anything rolling after it spent a shitload of duckets on that all star team that didn't work out because charisma is the one thing Preller didn't calculate when he acquired that year's squad. If you give him talent he can do acceptably. Off the field he's a stand up guy. I'm okay with Andy Green, but wish we still had Bud. He was a comfy AF manager.

ONLY 5 MORE HOURS

Baby Bears

GO 'STROS

Dodgers game is on the telly later

good game to give this sport a shot?

Relocate the Brewers and A's to Las Vegas.

I'd say so, Clayton Kershaw is starting for the Dodgers and he's arguably the #1 pitcher in baseball right now

Guys, my team is starting the full rebuild this season. Is it as painful as I'm expecting or is it fun in its own way?

so this is the power of the national league.. woah

Last two digits confirm how many wins the Dodgers will have this year

Enjoy it. Get ready to suffer.

That's what I'm expecting.

Pretty sure AL central plays NL west this year. Sox vs Padres. Battle of the shitters.

At least tickets will be cheaper because you will suck so bad.

and if they were AL teams delusional AL fans would be saying "MUH SUPERIOR PITCHING"

HARPER TO YANKEES WITH TROUT WHEN???

Not happening. Yankees will not sign them.

I hate to tell you, but it's awful.
Try to follow your minor league teams as much as you can. It'll make it much easier.
At least you're not a bandwagoner though.

Based strobro

When they're well past their prime.

fine, how soon until boston signs both

pregame show

it's finally happening

Remember my friends. Tomorrow is the day.

>when you exchange your constantly-worn winter hat for your constantly worn baseball cap

feels like spring lads

kek

Is it true that Giants fans treat beating the Dodgers equivalent to winning the WS?

>0-0
>0-0
>0-0

you bald bro?

was it really that hard to put in the rockies game too ;_;

last two digits confirm how many wins the jints end up with

Stupid question, I know, but can I still do this even if I have at&t?

Brandon Moss is really nervous in front of the camera

>get MLB tv
>literally NO games are being shown today

the fuck's the point

Yeah that was a really stupid question.

???


you getting the blackcock?

move to a canadian trailer park like i did

Are you memeing?

85?

perhaps

Hey guys can I use Sup Forums if I'm on NetZero?

Cole just almost took Sandoval's head CLEAN OFF

Windians Lineup

No. You can't watch baseball either.

Bless the Indians
May you hit 50 dingers tonight

>windians

>rags

in all my years I've seen literally 5 different teams refered to as >rags

who the FUCK? are the rags??????

Thanks bro I guess I'll just kill myself then. Have a good one.

I assume he means rangers.

>benny tendies is actually good

fuck off red cucks reeeeeeeeeeeeee

I actually have long luscious hair

>the great American sport
>immediately corrupted by Japan
>next post is literally Canadian
Is this the most /mlb/ thread of all time?

>third post is delusionalfag from a red state

Why the fuck is Santana batting first?

Texas Rangers, New York rangers...

Cheers

Reds fan here, and yes. It's awful.

Reds will win 93 games this season. I guarantee it.

Benintendi just murdered that baseball.. he looks like the real deal. God damn the Red Sox know how to develop players

He was leadoff a lot of last year. He's actually pretty good at getting walks

It's awful but it becomes really fun if your team does it well and gains a fortune in prospects.
If they gel early it's even better.

t. Cubes fan

atleast you knew you were rebuilding, I had no idea my team was doing anything other than improving the fucking stadium

Maybe the Red Sox actually are a good team

I hope you're right but I'm not holding my breath. Next year we'll be in a much better position to compete.

take this if you dont have it

>pie rats literally GIVING Boston the game
It's not fair, brehs

Are the reds executing a good rebuild?
I don't really pay attention to them honestly, will they be a playoff team soon?

STEVE PEARCE FIRST PITCH SINGLE MVP AND WS MVP CONFIRMED

Thanks lad

American League Rookie of the Year

It's a solid rebuild, nothing too great but we're getting a lot of youth on the roster which hopefully develops.

Go Phillies

Comedy Central Goodness right here.

Blow Phillies.

Remember last year? I do

>Rookies

Mariners!
This time in the right thread

SOON

>rockies pitching imploding out of nowhere

WHAT A FUCKING SURPRISE

>opening day
>three games have already been played
I'm not sure this semen-slurping sport is for me, bros
