Just getting into baseball. Any Carolinians on? Who do we pull for in baseball?

I love spring training.

good question, i was thiking in witch team is the most sulist team on MLB

Which team on MLB would you consider the most sulist? The least?

Usually the Braves

I like turtles

>Career 9.0 ERA

Is it fair to call Ohtani a bust at this point?

>South Carolina
Looks like you traitorous animals need another lesson in respect. And by that I mean your state is burned to the ground again.

>Career 9.0 ERA
Yikes. Well, it was fun while it lasted.

Glorious comfy ST

Throw a "based" on the front of that and it's like I'm teening it up in Sup Forums!

What's taking so long with the JD Martinez thing?

Why did you post a picture of a Yankees prospect?

>Career 9.0 ERA
This wouldn't have happened if Ohtani was on the Cubs. Madman Maddon would just use him as the DH for spring training.

Shartinez denied the greenlight due to acute prolapsed rectum cause unknown

ahaha Manfred sweating bullets
Golden Boy Bustani better pack his fucking bags

A common German phrase, often used literally

funny

>T-t-throw that meaningless game in the trash!

Please post in English.

...

so what's the point of trying out for the 25 man, then? jap pitchers (eventually) have proven time after time to be busts.. i'm a yankee fan and I know tanaka's elbow is gonna explode any minute to which he'll never be the same after. fuck them

Give me one GOOD reason why I shouldn't be a Yankees fan

Nice Rakuten cap you have here huh?

people hate here, its not a bad team but people hate here a lot and people will hate you beacuse they hate yanks

it's like being a Bayern fan in the Bundesliga or a Real Madrid fan in spanish football

Please don't watch our sport

Our sport now

Let's play a game /mlb/

What if we determined every single pitchers future by 31 preseason pitches

Randy Johnson - Garbage
Pedro Martinez - Trash
CC Sabathia - Rubbish
Mariano Rivera - Shit
Shohei Ohtani - Meh
...

Kyle Farnsworth - HoF
Scott Feldman - Perennial Cy Young
Ubaldo Jimenez - Legend
Cliff Lee - God
...

Keep adding on

>jap pitchers (eventually) have proven time after time to be busts
please no

I've been watching for many years. It's the only good american sport.

Your boy's a bust, Manfred.

Too late, i have been watching for years

For me, it's the Hiroshima Toyo Carp

I predict the Mariners will not make the playoffs.

^ i forget to mark OK

Here's a wild gunslinger out to beat the odds

have mlb teams adapt to 6 man rotations and I'll be more privy to believing in them. but then you'll possibly fuck up american/spanish pitchers that like regular rotation play

>Shohei Ohtani - Meh
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Good boy, Carp is one of the most cool teams on the league

They are also owned by Mazda

>6 man rotations
Please! The juggernaut Dodgers are already good enough. 6 Dodger pitchers would wreck parity and destroy the league.

you hate winning

>6 man rotations
>regular rotation

someone can explain the diferences between both? pros and cons?

I'm going to watch some HAM FIGHTERS

Regular rotation is 5 man

Nice pokemon

But do they fight for the rights of ham, or against ham?

They're owned by a ham company, clearly they fight for hams

Haha what if they were the SPAM fighters like in Morty Pithon

you replied to me but I believe a 6 man to be better for pitching because the less pitching = less injuries/stress/tiredness.. definitely not scientific but it might give the japanese pitchers an even playing field. I mentioned tanaka's elbow about to blow up and that's possibly because he's not used to this workload.. I recall joe girardi being mad at the thought of skipping starts or adding extra days for tanaka even though he seems to be much better when he has rest, rather than the usual every 5 day starts

This is the best talking about a team team that i have seem on my life

...

Cliff Lee was good though.

>Source: #Angels shopping Ohtani hard. Hope to flip him before ST ends. #Pirates reportedly most interested and hope Searage can work his magic on another reclamation project.

Looks like the Angels have finally given up on Ohtani

What did he mean by this?

>Soriano

the only problem with Jap Pitchers is that since the school level they are trained to pitch as much they can, and they only noticied that it was a problem until recently

in some High School Tournaments like Koshien, people used to pitch +20 innings, this is a literal arm suicide

"""""""""""""""""""source"""""""""""""""""""""""

I'm gonna need a source on this bizarre talk my man

Pic related: it's pregame yak

Butthurt anglels fags detected lmao

Me in the middle

kek Ohtani a confirmed absolute bust

6 man rotation in a 5/6th sized league

YOU ARE NOT A YAK

Why do they call him "Big Game" James?

Because he has bigger games than Soriano ever had

Not a student of the game. Sad.

I am a Yak, and I'm talking back

>BREAKING: #Angels DFA Ohtani. Interest around the league minimal. Expected to clear wavers easily.

because he pitches so well in big games

yeah, this isn't good. seems like they're stuck in the 60's or some shit

Better than Ohtani?

Source: my ass

obviously

IT'S REAL. FUCK

>Bustani

Stop lying you lying liar. I've had enough of your yak.

Pic related.

Ahaha that banana boat barely even dropped anchor and they're already sending this Jap bust back to NPB(AA)

Just more nonsense yak.

has there ever been a pitcher losing a game without giving up a hit (theoretically possible with hit by pitch and base on balls)?

is he /ourguy/?
