>yfw the madman actually makes a bid for Otani

I'm not too familiar with international free agent business but I thought getting Luis robert pretty much meant they couldn't go after otani

That's what would make it absolutely mad.

I'd like to see him play for an AL team pitching every fifth day and DHing the rest.

Mariners!

>my face when "people" actually think the team with the best pitching depth in the NL and a top 10 offense in the MLB will miss the playoffs this season

>Justin Turner (objectively and statistically a top 5 third baseman, it isn't even debatable)
>Hyun-jin Ryu (best Pitcher in the game who will be 100% healthy, unlike the entirety of last year, he will put up 1.98 ERA, 280 SOs, and a sub 1.000 WHIP)
>Cory Seager (a top 3 shortstop already and going into this season will be fully recovered from causing all those errors in the NLDS (2.9+ dWAR, .290 BA )
>((((Joc Pederson))))(literally a top defensive outfielder that is way better than just a platoon guy .700 OBP)
>Josh Reddick (top 10 hitter in the NL 35 HRs, .700+ slg,)
>Kike Hernandez (a white guy trapped in a black's body, one of the smartest players in baseball, elite measurables, incredible upside)
>Adrean Gonalez(one of the fastest and most explosive players in baseball)
>Clayton Kershaw(one of the best post season pitchers)

>Best Bullpen depth in the NL
>Best pitching staff in the MLB
>Best infield in the MLB
>Top 5 total

Barring major injuries to key players, there is literally no way the Dodgers are losing the NL west this season

The Dodgers WS win drought ends in 2017

You can't prove me wrong

Cap it

dodgers

>the spics beat the Giants twice and all of a sudden think they're going to conquer the world
Calm down you fags you only beat a team that's gonna end up with the number 1-4 draft pick not an accomplishment to really be proud of, let's see what yeah are taking about come mid October

Otani is as good as ours. Kawasaki is our inside man.

>yfw Otani pitches -and- pinch hits in the dome

Top memes lads. Although Shatkins will probably just throw 20mil at him and say "WE TRIED" when Doyers give him 21. It sure would be fun to have him around though.

Game 22 tonight

>indians wins counts when they beat up on tanking teams
>dodgers wins don't count when doing the same
Really fires up your synapses.

Where did all these Dodgers fans come from???

>Literally say nothing about the Indians or their streak
>Bring it up like it's some great point
Don't worry, they'll flame out to and probably will be first round exits

>same thing
>2 game win streak

When you lose 11 in a row it really is suspect

>Stroshow
>Showtani
>Happening
>Bestrada
>Big a Genie

Would be a fun 2018 if this somehow happened

Don't worry, it won't

Is LeBron the face of these lifelong Cleveland "Windians" fans?

what a perfect representative.

I thought he was a yankees fan?

It's too early for a hissyfit Larry, it's 8 in the morning, don't you have to get ready for school?

He goes to an elite internet school where he can be appreciated and doesn't have to deal with losers that don't understand him.

When my mom married my 4th stepfather, he said he didn't ever want me to call him dad or else, so I call him Uncle Tyrone on regular days and Mister Bigg when they're filming.

Go Dodgers!

No he is lifelong!!

discuss

Are you me?! Go Dodgers, love those bums, I only took a small vacation during the dark ages of the loss streak. Also I was serving a ban.

> that disgusting jaw

the blatant PED use is quite amazing I have to admit. He's lucky that the NBA protects its stars so much.

I capped it for when you lose home field advantage and lose vs the Nats I can have the mods ban you.

>he'll say he's a yankees fan
>nothing wrong with that

Human beings were a mistake.

>be a high school student
>get drafted by NBA
>talk about DA LAND, and how you want to win a title for DA LAND
>get older, wister
>realize ownership doesn't gaf, just wants ticket sales
>go to Miami to win a title
>now you're rich
>dreams of post-basketball career
>have to be nice to everyone
>don't do anythin that would offend other billionaires, particularly in NY

Rich white people were a mistake.

How the fuck does someone born in AKRON OHIO grow up to a be fucking yaks fan and an unabashed one at that? What the fuck is wrong with people?

...

>we only post about the dodgers when the conversation is forced

We all know you wanted to be here defending your doyers during their historic loss streak you weren't getting your Diamondbacks gear ready, just really busy.

>longest losing streak is 21 games
>11 games losing streak is historic

ohhh good post bro you totally roasted me.

the dodgers losing 11 games in a row must be like winning the worlds eries for the rest of /mlb/

>100 losses they said

The Cleveland Indians play the Kansas City Royals later tonight, before an audience of 500 loyal fans!

Get excited, my fellow Tribe-"bros"!

Keep slurp slurp slurping that piss DG!

No my team has won the world series since the berlin wall fell
Though I can see how easy it is for dodgers fans to not know what it feels like to win a world series

>haha remember that one time my nameless team was relevant

I split roasted your mom with Tyrone last night desu while you slipped away from the Dodgers for a couple weeks.

>the asstros
>the lastros
>the disastros
>the collapstros
>the living in the past-tros

Royals win tonight GET

>split roasted
>split

it must be hard to be as dumb as this

I sense frustration
Does it hurt knowing that 16 teams have won a ring since the first George bush became president?
Or how about the 23 different teams that have won a pennant since?

Dodgers are now in sole possession of the longest active winning streak in the NL West.

Do you guys remember in 2013 and 2014 when the only two words Cubs fan knew how to say was "MUH PROSPEKTS".

Every day same thing
>muh prospekts
>but muh prospekts
>prospekts prospekts prospekts

Remember that?

And then they broke their postseason drought in 2015 making it to the NLCS
And then they won the world series the year after in 2016

How does this make you feel when remembering "MUH PROSPEKTS"?

There are very few things in life more rewarding than being a Dodgers fan.

>muh prospects motherfucker

>Cubs fan
I forgot they even had 1 back then

Did Lebron congratulate your team on their 21st win in a row?

Thought so ...

>forgetting when this general was flooded with >muh prospects
Craig Biggio fans need not apply.

Mets will be lucky to win 3 games next season lol

I farted and blood came out

tanks vs tigs

Go to the doctor. Unless you're a Dodgers fan (illegal immigrant with a warrant for arrest, suspected of drug trafficking and multiple cases homicide), then can't help you.

> tfw the Cleveland Windians will lose in your lifetime
> tfw Trout won't be playing in October for another year
> tfw I got a gf
> tfw Boston is being bullied again for being a racist town

who comfy here?

If Boston is so "racist" then how come they keep electing minority-friendly people every time?

they're /our minorities/

>Andrew Miller has been activated

There goes the win streak.

>Clayton Kershaw
>One of the best postseason pitchers
>Kershaw
>Postseason
>Best

Last digit confirms the number of postseason series the Dodgers win this year

He'll be coming out to pitch a 50-0 lead and strike out the side

but not in order, and after giving up 48 runs

Tomlin is pitching tonight so we don't need Andrew Miller being activated for you to tell us that.

Angels t.b.h.

Where's he going la?

I still don't get why he won't just wait two more years till he's 25 and get a 200m contract. Makes no sense.

>2 more years of shitty nipball
>or get the ball rolling with 2 years inside an actual MLB org

How would you characterize the Dodgers rebuild?

Francisco Lindor is 23. He could know that good, young players will eventually make money anyways

A failure

not really though
the only money in question is the 4 seasons between 2020 and 2023 after which he'll probably sign a huge deal anyway with a similar if not greater annual value than whatever he would get as a free agent in 2 years.

if he waited he'd probably make something like 25-30M a year for those seasons, if he comes over, with arbitration he'll like 10-15M a year for those seasons. not a huge difference.

He's already going to make a shit ton more money than he makes there

Buck Farmer did nothing wrong.

What the hell kind of name is that? Seriously. Where's he from? Kansas?

Man, yesterday detroit was SAVAGE

>autismus tossed
>mccann tossed
>farmer throats at the ump's head as hard as he can and Hicks misses it on purpose
>nails the ump, he's on the ground for like 5 mins

>detoilet

GO SNEKS GO

>detoilet

> Yoan Moncada is the first White Sox player to reach base 5 times in a game before he turned 23 since Frank Thomas in 1991.

b-but /mlb/ told me, he was >bustcada. Is this another case of /mlb/ being always fucking wrong?

>detoilet

Lesson here is never call a player a bust if they haven't even played 50 games yet

>against detoilet

Cleveland set a historical record streak against them, what does that tell you?

>25 hits
>the only one in the starting lineup without a hit is the designated hitter

>red sox win

>detoilet

>have one good game
>sux fans suddenly think he's the second coming of Babe Ruth

>UK poster
>sox fan

ah yes, the glory days when saying you were a Cubs fans brought nothing but mockery and MUH DROUGHT

>mest tier delusion

He's rocking a 108 wRC+...

gg A's, hope you get a new park soon

>.200 avg
>5 home runs
I'll take Hoskins and Judge any day over a literally on the whos
