HEY

>Putting general in the title
>No Nipon News
Not letting the BR make the OP is a mistake.

>america's pastime
>brazil
Spotted the commie

>mfw you are too busy looking for musics used on Japanese Baseball broadcasting that you forgot to make a new thread

>South America doesn't count as American
Retard detected

>Jacob deGrom (back)
kek

...

>Judge is letting someone else win the homerun derby this year

>OP Matters
yuck

Cusb btw

I guess De Leon is going to be a bust. I was hoping Cincy could get him in a trade earlier, glad they didn't. Sucks for TB

HEY HEY HEY
Gnats were hit with a combination of bad trades and stupid decisions on the part of players some of which led to injuries that crippled them. Their being worse than my Dads was a technicality, and LAST PLACE SHOULD HAVE BEEN OURS!!!

>Logan Forsythe raises spring average to .500
>spring average

>cws: davidson
>not robert

Rotoworld has odd priorities
well anyways
happy nickyd day

what you guys think of musics like this being used on Baseball broadcasts? are cool or the instrumental ones are better?

Remember, Padres should pay fans to come to games and don't root for fascism, aka the Yankees and go to a baseball game to eat sushi.

>Mariners finalize one-year pact with Ichiro

it makes sound that mariners sold the soul for the devil in order of make with Ichiro

Rotoworld has really a poor choose in words

>Padres should pay fans to come to games
False.
That was a fan suggestion repeated by Lewis Black. It wasn't his argument.
Regardless of interest or desire, win or lose, a day out at Petco Park is one of the best you can have in the League.

There's about a 70% my Giants make it back to the playoffs this year. Feels good.

Their soul wasn't valuable enough to get Ohtani.

its already over-used souls kek
they tried too much while tries to get World Series

>>Putting general in the title
Stop trying to force this meme. General always goes in the title, this is America.

I think its some fucking retarded pedantic newfag who tries and finds ways to fit in or something

Why we dont do the democratic™ american way and we dont do a voting if we should or no put general on title?

No. Only /hoc/ adheres to this so its some remnant of the royals era smuk frok shit.

Because democracy is easily rigged.

>pact
>not blood pact
Are you even trying Seattle?

not when is only 2 options envolved

this is a naming vote, not a election to choose the next president

Based huebro

Anything below /mbl/ is a mistake anyway

Number of choices is not the problem, voting multiple times is.
>But Strawpoll
That site extremely easy to ballot stuff.

how do /poorfags/ watch the games without mlb tv

The local team is always available on a local broadcast channel.

The other 29 teams are unimportant.

Illegal streams
It's the best way because it's also a great middle finger in Manfred's face.

What made the stove hot this week?

>Dodgers still salty about Ohtani

Strapoll had IP Block options, and i think that google also has

i think when my wife's son turned it on to make mac & cheese and then left it on all day

It's extremely easy to switch your IP. That's the reason why implementing IDs site wide is panned, because people will would be able to get around it easily.

>i think when my wife's son turned it on to make mac & cheese and then left it on all day
What’s “mac”?

>win Series
>still no respect

i live in alabama tho

>Thor vs. Strasburg
>not even on TV
Man, I hate Spring Training with a passion.

rip

Move.

r/mlbstreams is more legit than mlb.tv

>lastros
>disastros
>pooston
>has to switch to babby league to win a ring

>babby league
What does the NL have to do with the Astros?

This
>WAAAH MUH PITCHERS DON'T HIT GOOD, WE NEED A DH
The AL is an embarrassment.

cbssports.com/mlb/news/the-cubs-now-need-one-of-the-most-dramatic-comebacks-in-world-series-history/

Remember when the Cubs were finished?

Babby league punching up again

i was going to do it

unironically leddit is a good place to find sport streams, its litteraly the only good thing about that website

Huh? I thought they switched to the AL though?

If the nl can't muster up the strength to beat pooston, then that's their fault

>walk the 8th batter to get to your free out
muh strategy

Just handle it how we always handle it

*bunts with pitcher*

Pathetic showing this offseason, guys. Simply awful. It's like you were never meant to play this game.
I'm going to have to recommend keeping you in rookie league for at least another year.

>implying there were Lndians present

>Lndians
If nobody's around to see it, was it ever truly a meme?

correct

21 dios PUTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS

most retarded shitposting class ever, you can't just show up and walk to first base. you need a hit and you need to run with it. forced memes are forced outs. bleak fucking future for this dumb shit general if this is what's on the farm.

I legit miss DG. Little spic twink sure could read a room.

>Pathetic showing this offseason, guys. Simply awful. It's like you were never meant to play this game.
You forgot the Memeners finger-pointing cunt.

That's just old fashioned once-a-thread cheerleading, come on now.

>>Recker, best curves in baseball, well-rounded, isn't he female, why do you say that, how do I get in the locker room
He’s not a female. I don’t get how you lads would think otherwise.

>Intro to Simple Baseball Concepts in As Many Words As Possible, starring Cubs anime dullahan
We need more baseball analysis in Scottish accents.

Sounds like a forced meme to me

Trip on DG.

>Tfw Cardinals nation
>Only sports team in the city that won awards
>Meanwhile our Illinois neighbors hail to the cubs gods because they're the best team in the midwest and they probably won more world series than us
>Tfw basically the Steelers of the MLB

It's not easy being /cardinals/

Dullahans are Irish you tool.

Imagine being /brews/.

>Tfw basically the Steelers of the MLB
A bunch of dirty homosexuals who only win because they cheat and have the umpires look the other way?

That's the Packers.

Oh right, the Steelers are dirty rapists who are never brought to justice for their crimes.

>Imagine thinking you'll win your division when all you did was trade for a bunch of outfielders and ignored your actual problem, which is shitty pitching and pretend it's actually good.

how do i root for my team if i hate half their players and social media

You still root for them no matter what
I dont give a shit if Hitler himself was on your team tweeting antisemetic shit everyday, that is YOUR team and you must root for them

what team?

>hate half their players
you probably hate them because they suck, you just have to cheer for them to suck less so you won't hate them anymore

>social media
doesn't even factor in, don't be the millennial stereotype

A p-i-m-p

I'd prefer that desu

losedians

no I just don't like them. some are good some are bad. they just rub me the wrong way

Jordan Zimmermann still stinks

who would have thought

cheering for millionaires you don't like on a personal level, yeah, that's a tough one

well you need to find something to like to make rooting for them satisfying, otherwise you're just cheering for laundry. civic pride? team history? someone you care about who loves the team?

I'll still root for them because the players won't be around forever but yeah I don't seem to have the same emotional attachment as I used to. maybe when the season starts I'll feel better about things

that should do it, actual competition is where the real rush comes from

⭐jays⭐

>Thor strikes out three straight Gnats on 9 pitches
>no video

Immaculate in spring?

Walk, single, nine straight swinging strikes.

...

Then there was the next inning. 6 straight.

>where's my 500mil contract

How many North American domed stadiums do we have left? TB, HOU, TOR, MON, PHX, MIL, MIA are the only baseball ready ones that come to mind unless you anons can help me think of more..

Anyway, there was a columnist, his name escapes me now, that was proposing the idea of having a two month, four to eight team American/Canadian winter league as an option for more northern AAA/rehab tier players as opposed to Latin American leagues.. I dig the idea and would think that the stadium owners would enjoy the chance to make some $$ in the winter months while their stadiums are sitting vacant or are hosting Miley Cyrus or dirtball motorbike rodeo type bullshit (though I'm well aware that events like those pull in some major $$, and have attended many motorcross events myself).. .

how many people would these games draw? because it's a shit ton of overhead just getting a stadium into game mode and these are major league stadiums made for major league crowds

Might hurt MLB in Latin America a bit if they don't get as many MLBers heading south every year.

I respect them my man!!
