Am I alone in thinking this baseball season has been a drag, Sox streak notwithstanding? (Or quite possibly, as a result of the Sox streak?) I'm just really bored by how it's all shaking out and my waning White Sox Optimism isn't helping matters. 2010 MLB Season Lowlights: #6org Strasburg looks human, and his career looks terminal & Greinke "" Heyward blows, too AL East is at its most boring, if only because I feel like Yanks clinching is a foregone conclusion, and the fact that they had some rough stretches is going to be enough for it to be hailed as some kind of mighty comeback San Diego just does not fucking compute at all Peavy Big Z Starlin Castro bums me out because I think he'll just be Cubs Alexei Miguel Cabrera would be fun to watch on any team other than the Tigers Not everything sucks, though: I love the Reds this year (sincerely, not just to be a Costanza-esque derpity-derp anti-Cubs blowhole) Jays pitching is unreal Tim Hudson Pitching in general is unreal Voey Jotto Sports fans, how do you feel about this current baseball season? Experiencing a similar malaise or are you so fucking stoked for sticks, balls, n' leather? |

This year has been maddening...Cards fucking pwn the Reds, but somehow can't handle the Cubs and Brewers... |

suckers playground wrote: Pitching in general is unreal The thing is, with the MLB's efforts made to "clean up" the game, it's reverted back into more of an 80s-style brand of baseball. It's likely to result in more of a pitcher's game, and we've seen the inflated numbers decrease overall in the last couple of seasons. If the Cubs were doing better, I'd probably actually appreciate a more fundamentally-sound league this summer. It's strange to me, but the Cub have just sucked all of the joy out of the game for me this season, but I'm not really surprised that this is the case. I'll continue to watch, though... |

I wonder if we will see another perfect game/ no hitter this season. |

That joke would work if the Sox offense was asleep this series. It hasn't been. Its the pitching thats been awful. |
