that guy is one fickle, psycho fan

was that the Nationals or Boras. Boras represented half the Nationals starting lineup at the time, including Harper and Strasburg. Boras threatened legal action and to make life hell for the Nationals w/r/t his other clients if they didn't abide by Strasburg's innings limit.

Well, back to Amanpour vs. Bartiromo.

It was Rizzo.

I saw a column a couple weeks ago in the Athletic about how smart that decision looks now and how smart Rizzo was.

Fuck him.

_________________

Agree. Look, no one needs to be more like Herm Edwards, but Rizzo and Strasburg both do. Pathetic.

ah, so Rizzo threw Boras under the bus with that Washington reporter who tried to put it all on Boras. I assume this rookie pitcher innings limit thing traces back to Dusty Baker and Prior/Wood.

Save that horseshit.. It was Strasburgs decision ultimately. If he says " listen MFers..im pitching..hes pitching.

Troof. Imagine trying to shutdown Scherzer or Verlander during a playoff run.

Wasn't it when Strasburg was a rookie or second year?

It's easier to believe it with a young player.

He'd been in the league a few seasons, but was coming off of a missed season due to TJ surgery.

The moneyhunny is frighteningly pale and witch like in person. And that was 20 years ago.

And scrawny. No, bony.

I once sat in a chalet in Zakopane watching the national team broadcast in Polish. That's desperation to watch sports.

Every Boras client proudly states that they control their careers, not him. Then every single one of them does what Boras says

so....we have MLB TV. We live in Lake County....clearly the Chicago market. There was no local affiliate carrying the game last night. when I logged into MLB TV, the game was blacked out.

Am I missing something? Shouldn't that game have been available? There was no TBS Chicago Affiliate that carried the game, was there?

I was able to reddit the game, but just curious why I was blacked.

I was gonna say that Hader lost some velocity after 25 pitches, but just watched it again and obviously (very obviously) he was just wild. And then got beat by a rookie. Zimmerman found a way to come through, too.

whoah whoah whoah, what does this mean? Whats reddit? Thought that was some blog site or somethin'.

Let me guess, you'll need a link to it.

Hope tonight's game is as entertaining as last night's.

Fuck Billy Beane.

That... was almost an epic collapse. Still, what does this say about the Braves.

That would've been awesome if they could've completed the comeback. Oh well.

Braves better win the next one.

I'm torn. I really like Goldschmidt. This is killing me that he's on St. Louis. Usually I also couldn't give a shit about the Braves, but they have some guys that are fun to watch.
