I can see it now…tonight the “Angel Hernandez” model is behind the plate, so buckle up.

Re: MLB Off-Topic

I agree that what Blzr shared in that photo looks bad, but I’ll say that last summer my son and I went to Baltimore and Philly and I didn’t even notice them. It must be the angle/how it’s set up.

Re: MLB Off-Topic

I mean…it’s a know thing that Ruth used PEDs. He missed most of 1925 after he developed an abscess when he was injected with sheep’s testosterone.

Re: MLB Off-Topic

His debut is one of the few that lived up to the hype. I know it was against a poor Pirates lineup, but it was such a hyped event and he struck out 14 while looking nearly unhittable. I remember...

Re: MLB Off-Topic

I think one of the big factors that gets ignored is spin rate. Velocity clearly causes issues, but once teams started measuring spin rate pitchers began gripping the ball harder to generate that...

Re: MLB Off-Topic

If a team announces a pinch hitter after the pitcher has warmed up to start an inning, the defense may not make a pitching change.

For example, Spencer Strider is on the mound and starting the...

Re: MLB Off-Topic

Ya, I also just learned today about the new pinch hitter rule that goes into effect this year as well. Manfred just changes stuff to change stuff…he can’t retire fast enough.

Re: MLB Off-Topic

Random thing; I was looking at the 2010 draft and of course we all know Harper was the top pick that year and I think most of us would agree that he's on a HOF trajectory.

The thing I didn't...

Re: MLB Off-Topic

Watching Cubs/Giants and the Cubs announcers mentioned there hasn’t been a Giant hitter to hit 30+ homers since 2004. I couldn’t believe that, but looked it up and it really is true (Bonds had 45 in...

I turned MLB Network on today expecting to see spring training games and instead Prime 9 was on. I was about to turn it off, but it hit me this seemed different than all the Prime 9’s I’ve seen...

Re: MLB Off-Topic

It’s a shame what injuries have done to Mike Trout; it’s so easy to forget his greatness already.

I was reading a CBS baseball article about Acuna’s contract talk yesterday and the author stated...

Re: MLB Off-Topic

Ya, Manfred hasn't been great (but neither was Bud), but I have to give Manfred credit for the pitch clock. Not sold on the SB rules/enlarged bags, but whatever. Definitely not a fan of the...

Re: MLB Off-Topic

Welp…Wander Franco’s text messages will put him away for a long time. No claiming he didn’t know or was extorted after those…guy is a mess.
