I really, really, really hate Coors Field.

Yes, as a fan of an NL West team, can't emphasize enough.

Is Joc Pederson going to bat over .200 this year?

I love the guy, but he's been replacement-level bad since June.

Fiers!!! Great to see a guy throw a no hitter who barely hits 90 on the gun. Congrats!

Meaning..... yes, he's amazing.... it's a given any more.

Phils rook did good..... no runs, 6 inns., first MLB hit that produced 2 ribbies.

This had nothing to do with Madbum and everything to do with the AAA team that is the Braves.

Don't know how one is supposed to know that when all you post is a pic. Sorry.

I just thought you didn't like my illustration.

Great time for them to visit Wrigley after the Cubs gave up 123478 runs to the Tigers.

Ok...continuing on my announcers rant. Watching the Rays/Stros last night, I noticed the Astros color guy almost couldn't let it go when his announcing partner gave a compliment to someone on the Rays. For example, when he complimented Kiermaier on his fielding ability, the color guy had to throw in, "yes, and that's like with the Astros with Marisnick and why he's so valuable to the Astros".

Focus, people, focus.

We astros fans can't stand Ashby(color guy) he's pretty much terrible at his job

Nope...Chipper was just expressing his displeasure with this current band of players masquerading as a baseball team.

Thank God for Cespedes. Three home runs in the game.

I miss watching him play daily. It was a treat every single day

They're not the only ones doing it, a number of people do it. Most notably though:
