so w/ that new intentional walk rule. does Monty get 4 pitches added to his stats or not?

Manfred is an idiot.

At least they fought back.

But seems like they had no fire tonight. Can't blame them , this is pretty meaningless after your last game was winning GAME 7 of the WS.

She damn near makes the broadcast unlistenable, I love baseball but she makes me want to turn the channel.

You spelled "IMU" wrong.

She's pointless. She's just there.

But she receives praise because she's unlike MANY wives/gfs who don't give a shit about baseball. So she sounds so insightful. Of course Mendoza is when your wife thinks Willson just scored a field goal when he crossed home plate.

Misogynists!

There was a stretch that she hadn't said anything in so long that I forgot she was even there until she babbled about something.

She should have more stretches like that.

I'm nervous that Kris Bryant was just lucky in his first couple of seasons. Lot of holes in that swing. He can't lay off a shoulder level fastball to save his life.

The way Martinez pitched Bryant last night was a perfect blueprint. It also helps to throw 100.

I'll tell ya though it was nice that automatic intentional walk shaved 30 seconds off that 3 and 1/2 hour , 9 inning game

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Did you see where Manfred admitted in the booth that it really wouldn't accomplish anything, but it was more or less a token move?

IT'S SYMBOLIC!

I thought I was the only one.

As I've said before, and she commented again on it last night, someone who has pitched fastpitch softball is uniquely disqualified to talk pitched baseballs. It's completely different mechanics, like up from down. She'd be fine on PBP but having her do color is insulting.

She's better than Shilling so lay off her.

Bret Boone sucks too. Schulman is the goods though.

Our murderer conversation got me thinking... Matheny seems more like a run-of-the-mill psychopath. Killing in and of itself probably quenches his thirdt for blood. Lackey is probably more deliberate about it and enjoys the experience.

If MLB was Con Air, Matheny would be John Malkovich, and Lackey would be Steve Buscemi.

You're not allowed to lose that game in the bottom of the 9th after tying it like that.

Our "shiny new toy" (Wade Davis) never entered the game either. I hope JM doesn't make a habit of that, especially considering Davis is on his last contract year. No reason to preserve that arm either.

do you work for ESPN? Of course she's better than him. That's got nothing to do with what I said.
