Is "its only April" a meme?
Since at the end of the year, two or even one game could be the difference between a wild card or no playoffs at all. We've seen it happen in 2011 with DAT NIGHT and not too long ago when teams like the royals and giants squeeked Intl the WC games by ONE game and went way deep even winning the World Series.
With that in mind, do April games really not matter at all?

No eephus, but aside from that, yes. If I were you, I'd use a Running fastball as well.
>>67159287
AI gets stupid sometimes so go for it.
>>67159006
feels good man
>>67159287
I don't think the eephus is in the game anymore.
>>67159339
You can fudge up an eephus with the right settings on your pitch. Like a heavily modified curveball. I've seen people do it before.
how long until the whole nl west is sub .500?
>>67159243
nah, I'm still giving it to him
he was ok last season, especially in the second half, and I still believe he'll be fine this season, especially with the improved defense
of course he'll never be pre surgery danks again, but he's an ok fifth starter
>>67159200
>>67159174
A win matters just as much in April or September
Individual player performances dont matter as much in April. No one expects Mat Latos to run an era under 1 all season
>>67159314
It's also bad because when reality hits Latos, we're double screwed.
>>67159360
>>67159339
Why the fuck would they not include eephus?
>>67159378
Sure sure, I'd hope he'd tamper with everything first so he doesn't go in, spend tons of stubs he's earned through play, then realize he fucked up
>>67159407
as long as he stays healthy he'll be fine. his healthy reality is being a very good pitcher
>>67159409
Could be the same reason that Gyroball never got coded in aside from 08. It was a meme pitch.
>>67159314
we will literally give you dickey for 1 reliever that can get a strikeout
literally 1 strikeout in 1 inning
no im not exaggerating to the point of ridiculousness out of frustration
i literally mean 1 single reliever that can get 1 strikeout in 1 inning
Looking at the whos fans extreme pessimism about their first place team is a huge downer.

And Don Cooper is pretty good at keeping pitchers healthy.
Joe Blanton has done more in one World series at-bat than Clayton kershaw has done in his entire postseason career

14% seems a bit harsh for 8-12. What did the Yankees do to make FG hate them so much?
>yfw the White Sox wake up and collectively remember who they really are
Is there any hope for them inside the next five years or so, or are they gonna get moved to puerto rico?
>>67159174
I think the "it's only April" thing means that you shouldn't get that hyped about a first place team in April, because they could have a terrible rest of the year.
But also, a first place team in August could have a shitty September and then not make the playoffs. So who knows really?
>>67158878

Is it just me or has been there been a lot more sloppy defense so far this year?
Seems like whoever I'm watching I'm seeing more errors and balls not being fielded cleanly than usual
Whelp at least thanks for coming. On a side note, I noticed all the Dodger fans left and no longer start any gamethreads. Hey guys tough shit I told you this was going to happen and you all didn't believe me. Face it, the front office doesn't give a shit and they just sign whatever they think might put people in seats. It backfired and now there is no hope for the Dodgers.
>Dodgers
>>67160817
Scratch that. This is a four game series apparently. The Dodgers will get swept tomorrow
so I saw my first ever baseball game last week in toronto and I can honestly say I've never watched anything more boring in my life.
How these people can be called athletes and get paid as much as they do is beyond me. Awful, awful "sport". Just felt like saying this, carry on.
>>67161714
then I'll keep thinking that's the cardinals
the cardinals are also the hackinals and methinals, among other names, not just the tardinals

It's fucking April. Bats and hands are literally cold. First season of baseball?
>>67161728
Because all batters do is fucking strike out. All the fielders are unfocused.
>>67161751
No need to scratch that.
Sweep is happening
>>67161827
Lol no, how could I see sloppier defense than usual if this is my first time watching baseball? Cold hands isn't an excuse to bobble ground balls every time I turn on the tv

Who?
I feel like some stadium designers just gave up when it came to center field. Like, Target Field is just a giant black rectangle, or Nationals Park is a hole and grass. But parks like PNC park, or Coors Field livened up the joint. Fuck, even the Marlins did... something

TREVOR STORY UP WITH 2 OUTS AND RUNNERS ON 2ND AND 3RD DOWN BY 1
>>67161941
ayy lmao
Story just got robbed. That pitch was clearly inside.
>>67162121
WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?
WHAT THE FUCK
FUCK YEAR SHARK
Umpires have been extra ass this year. It's like they're trying to get replaced with robots
>>67162139
Hit the paint. Good call.
>>67162139
>>67162121
Not even a Rockies fan and I'm livid. That is bullshit.
>>67162167
Check the pitch trax. The hell it was.
>>67162166
I'd the robots aren't coming, then teams are going to start looking for pitch framing catchers. Wow umps. Absolutely terrible.
>>67162185
Close enough for a final strike in extra innings. Zone widens in those situations. You have to defend the plate on 2-0. Better learn quickly Story.
>>67162207
I mean 0-2
>>67162207
That didn't even look close in the eye test and the pitch trax immediately showed it way inside. Utter bullshit. Story would have hit a walkoff.
>>67158878
Anyone please help
>>67162167
Kek, take off those yellow glasses. That wasn't even close to the paint.
>>67162220
There's nothing guaranteeing that if it's a ball. It could be 1-2, then he grounds out
>>67162207
Guarantee you wouldn't be saying that if that were McCutchen at the plate.
>marlins actually won 4 in a row
WTF
>>67162292
You're probably right but idgaftbh that game needed to end one way or another
>4th place is 1 game behind 1st
It's gonna be another one of those years
>>67162120
didn't recall that and I just watched it
so I rewatched and that's not even close to what happened
not even the right number of pitches, it was never 3-1, pitch 3 never happened, it was thrown but time was called before that
pitches 4 (actually pitch 3) was borderline but probably high, pitch 6 (actually pitch 5) was almost face level high
>>67162278
this pitch was inside though, not nearly that far
on the overhead it was perfectly between the plate and tthe batters box line, so maybe 2 inches outside at most
>>67162300
Gonna be 5
>doyers
>mariners lose
>literally zero fans on /sp/
that was quick
>>67162334
Again, would you say that if it was cutch? Again I'm no Rockies fan, just watching the game, if it were reversed in teams and players, I'd still call BS too. There is no bias, ump committed robbery.
