Barring major injuries to key players, there is literally no way the Dodgers are losing the NL west this season

You can't prove me wrong
Cap it
Reminder that Kershaw will win 300 games.
Reminder that Kershaw will retire as the all time strikeout king.
Reminder that Kershaw has the lowest ERA since 1901 with a minimum of 1,600 inning pitched.
Can't make it up.

>>67458920
It does. From stretching the muscles.
>tfw my Phillies aren't completely terrible
They only need Corner outfielders, a first baseman, a second baseman, and a shortstop! And it's seeming more and more likely Tommy Joseph is getting called up to... get the occasional pinch hit behind Ryan Howard
>>67459502
Also I guess catcher might be a position of need, depending on how you think of the platoon.
>>67459502
LF - Asche/Williams
RF - Altherr
1B - Joseph
2B - Kingery
SS - Crawford
C - Knapp/Alfaro
They'll be fine
>>67459502
>>67459547
Oh and Quinn and Randolph are also top outfield prospects as well
>>67459558
>>67459547
I was speaking in terms of the 2016 team. You know, the one where Emmanuel Burriss is a Pinch Hitter?
Also
>Kodeyashi/Williams
Williams can play, but he's too much of a free swinger right now.
>Altherr
We don't really know, but I got hope
>Joseph
I really really want him to be the 1b of today, If not for him having to deal with all the concussions before
>Kingery
Waaaay too early on him. I'd say Cesar is FINE for now, but not optimal. A Darnell Sweeney is acceptable too. If anywhere a hole can be filled with average guys, this is it
>Crawford
I feel like we're all having too high expectations on him. He's really looking like the player that will hit .270 and draw some walks, with really good defense. But people are expecting a .320 hitter who is Bondsian with walks and Flawless D
>>67459602
Ok, in terms of 2016, you can expect an improvement with Asche, Altherr when they come back from the DL, and Joseph at first over Darin Ruf, THEN maybe we will have a shot at the winning a wild card spot.
>>67459650
If Goeddel keeps it up, does Asche still take over in left? I mean, we know Bourjos ain't moving, because he's hitting a patrician's .181
>>67459660
I assume they will play Goeddel every once in a while because he's a rule 5 guy. Asche has more majors experience so he's the go to.
>>67458575
Just don't give up another triple play tonight.
>>67460693

Absolutely disgusting senpai.
In other online wsox communities if you even mention the Cubs whether positively or negatively, you get met with who the fuck cares and other sorts of rebukes.
Why can't it be the same here? There seems to be only 3-4 actual true to heart white sox fans and then a sudden shitload of anti-cubs "white sox fans".
I'd prefer the former over the latter.
REPORT IN IF YOUR TEAM WAS PART OF THE BIG TIME TIM JIM SHOWCASE

2. What action do you think your FO will take?

Of all the division leaders, who do you think is the likeliest to fall? My guess is the mariners.
Sorry M's I just have a feeling.
>>67461381
>>67461404
>mfw i expected the bullpen to be a giant, lrad blowing clusterfuck and it has been amazing so far
>>67462358
Whos. Royals are too good to stay down and it's still too early. Ms are in good shape, the rest of the AL West didn't provide them any competition.
>>67462358
It's okay. We've learned to expect eternal disappointment.
>>67462358
The Ms look good
Lastros are back
As suck
Angels have one working elbow split among the entire rotation
Rags look good, but i think the Ms and rags will get a lot of wins out of the rest of the division
My Postseason Predictions
AL Central: Indians
AL East: Red Sox
AL West: Rangers
WC1: Royals
WC2: Mariners
NL Central: Cubs
NL East: Nationals
NL West: Giants
WC1: Pirates
WC2: Rockies
ALWC: Royals over Mariners

NLDS: Cubs over Rockies
Giants over Nationals
ALDS: Royals over Red Sox
Indians over Rangers
NLCS: Cubs over Giants
ALCS: Indians over Royals
WS: Cubs over Indians
Cap this for posterity. I'm always right sometimes.

>indians
>rockies
only objections desu
>>67462481
There's that ottoman humor again
>>67462481
>Rockies over the dodgers
Wait what?
As it stands now the Mariners are the most complete team in the AL West
Top rotation of the 5 teams especially with Hernadez, Iwakuma, and Walker
Extremely powerful core of hitters who while may falter at times, are still offensively stronger than any other team in the West with members like the tried and true Cano and Cruz as well as other powerful hitters like Seager and Lee.
They also have the nice speedy players who offer pluses on both defense and offense like Aoki and Marte.
The only other team in the AL West who comes close is the Rangers who I can see competing and giving the Ms a run for their money but ultimately, especially if the Ms add on big time which I'm sure they'll do, the AL West will be the Mariners division to lose.
>>67458376
Are absolutely done
Injured as fuck
Cant play
Angels are done in this race. Rangers and Mariners will be the two favorites
>>67462529
For the first time in over a decade. Mariner's and thier fans finally have hope.
Let's all take some time to reflect on this.
>>67462529
I respectfully disagree. Without darvish the M's might be better. But once he returns they will be the 2nd best team behind the rags.
>>67461762
>26-6
>collapse

>>67462213
I'm cool with who's fans who seem to be bros even when we meme them as who's. But the anticubs fans are pure cancer
>>67462598
The Mariners will still have a better bullpen than Texas though. That also sets them apart.
name a more meme ball park than wrigley field
protip: you cant
>>67462605
I'd mention 1969 and 2003 but a true, "lifelong" fan should already know those teams.
>>67462687
As a lifelong Cubs fan since 2015, those bad times during the dark ages are long gone.

Migo officially called back up
Avila reinstated
Hector Sanchez down
>>67462230
honestly he's just looking to get paid before he gets on the field, he was barely keeping it together two years ago and getting by on guts and moxie back then, he's 31 now and lost another 2-3 mph, jered weaver status
speaking of which what's up with all these dudes going from 90+ mph, 95+ in lincecum's case, to pedestrian speed in one offseason lately
i dont ever remember this shit happening all that often before it happened to like verlander and sabathia
why is Lincecum a free agent? what happened?
>>67462358
mariners are going to be in contention for the entire season solely because of how bad oakland and anaheim are
>>67462897
Long term potential issues from their initial mechanics now causing actual issues?
>>67462901
Exploding ligaments
So outside of non measurable theories like choking in the playoffs or collapsing, what will keep the Cubs from winning the World Series?
They played like absolute dogshit for the first 5 innings with a collage of fuck ups and they still were able to hold the gnats to 3 runs and managed to come back to tie and win the game. If they can beat a playoff team on they aren't even running on 6 cylinders, what could stop them? Even if starters get injured they got so much depth, the replacements will produce just as much.
So explain why? More than Heyward, that guy needs to be benched like Castro. was.
>>67462909
And lastros
>>67462960
that doesn't explain every case, sabathia had a really smooth delivery and verlander was mechanically sound as well
weaver was all over the place sure, lincecum not quite but still out of sorts, now apparently king felix is quietly down 2-3 mph in velo as well but the word is no one's noticing because he caught it early on and is throwing more offspeed to compensate and keep his numbers up
i just don't understand how it happens overnight with some of these guys, like david price is probably going to be another one, when he came in he was throwing 97 consistently and now he can still get up to 95 but he's sitting around 92-93 and he's only 29
Why are white sox fans so insecure? cant you just stick to your team and actually pay attention to the game? maybe even oh idk...show up to the field?
All you guys do is lurk /sp/ see people talking about the cubs and start shit posting about

Its embarrassing and your projection of your little brother complex makes you look retarded.
You guys even have the nerve to search up pro cubs videos on youtube and leave comments about how the cubs suck. Its pathetic.

>>67462901

>>67463072
i have no rooting interest between chc and cws whatsoever but it makes no sense to call them little brothers when they've won more championships and won one recently
it's just a bad look when the cubs are finally really good and now all the paper bag wearers are pulling them off and coming out of the woodwork
>>67463111
Its quite the opposite actually.
>be cubs fan
>discuss cubs related stuff with each other
>in comes retarded sox fan
>Hurr cubs suck, ottmans
> never talk about your own team
>just shit post about the cubs
Explains to me again how we are obsessed with little brother?
>>67462901
He was bad for several years and then he got hurt.
He hasn't been good in 5 years.
>>67463124
again not true what so ever. They have dominated the league in attendance at games so you cant even say theyre coming out the wood work. Chicago is the cubs team. The numbers prove they have the fan base. White sox finished bottom 10 in attendance the year they won the WS. go ahead look it up. ill wait.
>>67463143

ty anon. Most cub fans have no qualms with the sox. We mind our own business. Cardinal fans are more humble when they attend wrigley and they have been raping us for ages. I appreciate a sense of reason from the opposition.

Be a sox fan, there is literally nothing wrong with it.

>>67463514
Nice save
>>67463416
again i have no rooting interest whatsoever. neither team is in the division of the team i root for. i'm just saying you can't call another team little brother when they've done more than your team, and done more recently.
your entire argument is people show up to cubs games. attendance has nothing to do with what happens on the field.
which nothing has happened on the field at wrigley for 110 years. the cubs are absolutely a great team this year but it's a little unreasonable to expect everybody to just bow down when 3 generations, two world wars, a stock market crash, a great depression, the civil rights movement, jfk's assassination, the vietnam war, richard nixon, iran contra, gulf war, 9/11, and the fucking boston bombing have come and gone without the cubs doing a fucking thing.
>>67463538
>The shitstorm from Cubs fans vs anticubs "Sox fans" is all around bad for everyone and ruining generals and gamethreads alike.
You're all the ones to blame for responding and giving it legitimacy. Its your own faults for letting it get to where it is now.

>>67463609
Well give some validity to your argument, who is your team exactly?
>>67463616
You could here however /sp/ is a projection of real life. I'll wear a cubs hat out to dinner and my waitress will e a "sox fan" and she will have the nerve to say cubs suck to me. I'll ask her name some players on the sox.

>I don't know, because it's much more fun to shitpost and if you try that in other communities, you get banned for 'flaming'?
That actually wasn't my point. I haven't seen the banhammer for talking about the Cubs even if you're talking shit for or against. What I observed was people saying who cares? Or ugh not this again
It's the community that give a shit about an unrelated team basically. Here though you see different due to the anticubs "Sox fans".
I hold that true Sox fans have been through too much pain and agony and suffering in recent many years that we focus on our own team doing well for now and not some unrelated team outside of the division and not even in the same league.
Hell I personally hate the twins and dislike the Tigers and Indians far more than I could ever hate the Cubs.
This is dropping some truths. The anti Cubs" Sox fans" are simply not true Sox fans.
>>67466199
What?
>>67463976
Rockies
Designated "hitter"
>>67466272
It's literally the most bland looking stadium surrounded by acres of parking lots.
>>67466241
Sox fan here, been in the threads for 6 years, the "us true sox fans" mentality is honestly 100 times more annoying and pathetic than the sox/cubs shitflinging. Stop trying so hard to make sure everyone knows you're one of the "good ones," no one honestly gives a shit.
>>67466369
Nah the shit flinging is way worse.
>>67466367
You're thinking of Oakland Coliseum. Dodgers stadium is close though. I'm sure there's other stadiums surrounded by a parking lot. That's where people watching the game park

>players like Edwin Jackson are listed as being born in "Germany"
>many actually born in West Germany
>many actually born in (the Kingdom of) Prussia
>all 47 players listed as being born in "Ireland"
>actually born in the United Kingdom
I just realized how retarded this all is. Successor states are such a crazy thing. To what extent should be treated as separate countries? I mean Honolulu and Cork haven't changed locations but the people in charge have, as have the names for the lands within their borders.
If Julius Caesar had a Baseball-Reference page, would it say he was born in Italy? Should it?
Would or should Atahualpa's page say he was born in Ecuador?
>>67466369
Don't care if no one gives a shit. I had to sit through all those years of good awful clown shoes white sox "baseball" and it took a devastating toll on me as tragedy after tragedy piled on in the south side.
Yet despite all that my love and support for my team never wavered. Even in the years where they were so bad, and only like 5000 were in attendance for a game, I WAS ONE OF THOSE 5,000.
Hell, I still never got my medal for surviving the 2013 season.

Good stadiums have garages or lots nearby. They dont surround the stadium with parking spots

ayyy lmao

Bullshit. Good ones have public transit

tbqh with you Joe I would have actually preferred if Farrell got suspended
>>67466494
Well it's gone now at least.
>>67466523
they've got a big underground garage a short walk north
>>67466523
L.A. doesn't have good public transit though, because it's a shitty sprawling city
>>67466523
Way to cut out the gigantic parking lot just south of soldier field.
Besides huge parking lots aren't a bad thing. Ever heard of tailgating?
>>67463976
Angels
Co ace alongside Danks
>>67466543
North of the stadium is the field museum
>>67466559
Lastros competition for last just got easier.
>>67466552
I actually didn't cut it, though you're right it isn't included. But it's only the south end and the parking lit isn't nearly as bad. Also, I can't actually find an image including the parking lot.
>>67466543
you mean south. Also, it doesn't take up more space than the stadium itself like >>67466168
>>67461283
I swear there is one autist on this board who keeps bringing up attendance
>>67461283
I can't wait until we take 3/4 from these faggots in July or God willing the meet happens...take the WS from them this year.
>tfw when this cubs fan I'm responding to can't post a pic of his team's WS hat

It's all he has. Its better to just ignore him or he'll start sperging out again

dunno why my tripfag didn't work
>>67466168
At least it's not Kauffman Stadium.
Located in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by concrete and dirt, and with a fucking highway in the background that's visible on television broadcasts.
I don't care how nice your park looks on the inside. If it isn't located within your city's downtown core it's fucking garbage and deserves to be torn down.

Oh and it's part of one those god awful "sports complexes." Fuck that shit.
Here's another disgusting stadium complex design courtesy of Filthydelphia.
>>67465126
Look on the bright side
At least its not cain

>MLB needs to do something extreme to eliminate what happened Sunday.
What are you going to do? Give the batter first base? What's stopping the pitcher from just throwing into the dirt 4 times?
>>67466753
But I do go to games.
>>67463460
What now?
>>67462213
wow man you're such an upstanding guy your mom must be proud of you
fuck the cubs, see you in the world series fuckers
>>67466759
I actually like this only because they were smart enough to put everything in one area.
>>67466734
Probably the same people who think the DH is a good idea and that Big Men in basketball shouldn't be forced to make free throws
>>67466785
Mlb could tell dusty to stop being a dumbass and put someone whos hitting well behind harper
>>67466369
I don't give a shit, a fan that supports the team is a fan that supports the team. I can post pics of myself at games dating back to 2009, but I get shit for not posting here until the 2014 season. I pretty much only posted in /tg/ but realized gameday threads could be kind fun so started coming to /sp/.
>>67466753
For the last 2 years this has been my trip to the Cell. When I lived in northwest indiana, i went to 10-15 games a year. When I went to Purdue, I went to about 5-10 games a year. Now I barely make it up for a couple.
>>67466844
They announced Murphy is hitting behind Harper since yesterday
>>67466734
>Quite possibly the game might need to allow a batter—and those on base—to advance two bases if a team throws him four straight balls.
Absolutely fucking wut
