Fernando Tatis Jr.....Man I feel ancient.

Anywho, at least the Padres are eating a good chunk of that contract because Chicago is going to regret picking him up.

Oops. Didn't know you guys were talking trade in here. I posted the same thing in the Off Topic. Someone should start a trade deadline thread, imo.

The dbacks uniforms are still weird to me.

I like some of them. The teal lettering home alternates are actually pretty nice.





And call me an equipment snob (though you'd be wrong because I actually have a pretty bad eye for it), but I like their gray color on the road unis. Not necessarily the uniform, but the color of gray they use.

What an unfortunate MLB debut for Jason Coats. Here he is walking off the field in Detroit with a probable concussion and a cut lip after he and J.B. Shuck smacked into each other chasing a Miguel Cabrera fly ball in left center. Poor kid.

Spoiler

Triple Post.

He's the 2nd Sox player this season to be called up to make their debut, and immediately get injured, Kevan Smith was the other.

It just seems like the Cub's year...Weeks put up a really tough at bat and scalds that ball right at Zobrist. Good teams make their own breaks...so far the Cubs are REALLY good.

Yeah, never heard THAT before

Re: 5/31 - 6/12 Game Discussion Thread

Now that Xander's hit streak is over, the longest active hit streak belongs to...

Spoiler

Dustin Pedroia and David Ortiz, both at 12 games. Red Sox hitters have had the longest hit streak every day since May 6.

Also, David Ortiz leads the Majors with 53 RBIs.

Astros with another walk off win as Correa drives in Springer in the 12th.

Re: 5/31 - 6/12 Game Discussion Thread

Other than Kershaw he's been the bright spot for the Dodgers. Trayce has been surprise as well.

The two rookies and the 37 year old are the only guys hitting.

And go figure that when Justin Turner finally becomes a durable, every day starter for us, his bat becomes useless.

Re: 5/31 - 6/12 Game Discussion Thread

David Ortiz would probably win AL MVP if the season ended today. Don't think he's going to be in the running by late September, but it's ridiculous what he's doing.

The dbacks uniforms are still awful.

Fixed that for you.

It's like their away jerseys are still wet from the washing machine and the mom just told them it'll dry out as they play. They should go back to the purple like the fans want them to.

Yeah I forgot Chase Utley too. It was a matter of time that JT would come back down to earth.

Re: 5/31 - 6/12 Game Discussion Thread

Absolutely ridiculous...the replay of Trayce Thompson's SB in LA was criminal. He looked out in real time...the replay showed he was out by 3 feet...and yet the call stands. I'm done with replay if they are still going to get the calls wrong! I've already talked about how much I hate the current system...if you can't even get the calls right, what good is it?

...and now Kendrick steals 2nd and is OUT by a mile as well, yet called safe.

Re: 5/31 - 6/12 Game Discussion Thread

Again, go figure that Clayton would get our first hit and score our first run.

The guy does everything for us.
