Quintana doesn't get out of the 5th.

Disagree. I'm getting tired of cookie cutter deminsions. I love parks with offsets like that.

I've said it before but I desperately want yo see a park that is 350ft straight from left, center to right but with a short fenced in the corners and like a 30 or 40ft fence in center. I just enjoy different type iutfurld deminsions.

I don't mind parks with different dimensions, it';s just Fenway I have issues with. I know it is an unpopular opinion more than likely, but it has always been right there at the top of my most disliked parks. Turner Field used to be up there as well and it was a cookie cutter park.

Joe is going to eventually let one of the starters go deeper in games even if he doesn't have it or the Bullpen is going to be gone by the break.

Also Almora might have to be the full time CF because that 3rd run is an easy catch if Almora or someone not awful is in CF.

Pretty hopeless feeling when your team is down a run in the bottom of the 9th with 2 outs and Jason Heyward and his .220 average steps to the plate. Few things in life are more certain than Jason Heyward just can't hit.

You're not alone.

This may sound like a Yankees fan rant but Fenway is hideous.

The color, the atmosphere. I do like the idea of the monster. But I wish the rest of the park looked nicer.

Just felt like I had to post this...

Mike Trout. Mike Trout. Mike Trout. Mike Trout.

That is all.

I'm just gonna say this: Mike Trout is going to wind up being the Ted Williams of his generation. When all is said and done we'll look at his numbers and go "Why the heck was this guy not more recognized in his playing days?!?!". The only way Trout will get the full recognition and bust out of that Williams mold is if he wins a World Series.

The Mets are paying Jason Vargas $8m and they signed him to a 2 year deal. Good bit of business so far

There's no way they can keep running him out there.

I thought he'd be similar to big Bart for them. But man this guy is God awful.

Brewers fans who is the beautiful lady sitting behind home plate every game keeping score? I've noticed her for the last couple seasons

Here's what I found with a quick Google search. She's apparently not so shy:

Mookie Betts scratched from today's game for 'left side tightness'.

Benintendi and JBJ shift over one spot and Swihart starts at LF. Let's see how that goes.

They are playing the team with the longest active losing streak in the league right now, they'll keep that streak alive or they're a bunch of chokers, the whole lot of them.

I hate to be the "well, actually" guy...

Well, actually the Braves are tied with Minnesota for "longest" active losing streak which is 3 games so let's pump the brakes on that hyperbole a little bit.

I'm ready for robotic/automated called strike zones.
