If I'm not mistaken, doesn't it take about 20 minutes for the roof to fully close when they activate it?

I'm not sure how long it takes.

This delay only lasted 10 minutes.

I hate Toronto's field.

I think most people do.

I dont get how management hasnt ever tried fixing it.

Dont they realize they have higher than average amount of injuries and cant attract FAs because of their field? That's the main reason some guys dont want to come there. I wouldn't be surprised if theirs and TB field is a reason guys have most if not all of the AL East on their no trade lists.

Rhys Hoskins is not good at baseball.

I wouldn't say that .... you're just being reactionary to a bad time of the year to go cold and make mistakes. However, should he turn it all around in September, I don't want to hear him pulling a Sean Rodriguez and vilifying the fan base. He knows what they're all about and why they react as they do. Former Phillie players should advise him on how to handle that.

Hector Neris is a piece of garbage. Get off this team.

Not true either. He's just in the wrong roll. He was perfectly fine as a set-up man. He just doesn't have the constitution to be a closer.

The Dodgers best relief pitcher is their backup catcher......****ssell Martin.

EDIT: For some reason OS is putting in asterisks for Martin's first name.

Pete Alonso now owns the Mets' rookie record for home runs in a season, and the Mets' overall record for home runs in a season after hitting his 42nd last night.

Thankfully the rain looks to be letting up in NY. The Cubs definitely need this bludgeoning of the Mets to reach official game status.

How about the fact that Jorge Soler will almost certainly set the Royals' franchise record for HR in a single season. He's at 36. Moustakas holds the franchise record with 38. Homers are up, but I still find that pretty weird.

When did Tyler Flowers become so bad at catching?

He really loves to backhand balls in the dirt.

He’s always been a poor defender. Has one if the slower pop times in all of baseball, usually is among the league leaders in PB’s, and is generally pretty poor on plays at the plate.

Re: 8/19 - 9/1 Game Discussion Thread

Still not an official game in NY, plus it is actually becoming a game again....

Okay, now the 5th is over and it's still a 4 run lead.

Cubs trying their best to blow a 10-1 lead at Citi Field.

I just don’t remember him being this bad.
