(i still like to call it an infield triple though)
67 of Trevor Story's strikeouts this year have been on pitches outside of the strikezone

>>69034112
Rangers are truly America's team. These boys play 100% and it's a GOOD 100%. They're the best baseball team to take the field in the past 10, maybe 20 years.

CONFLICTED
>>69034579
thankfully baseball is a 162 game season so you can get away with rooting for them when you watch in person while generally hoping for them to tank. in the end a couple games doesn't matter much unless you are in the playoff hunt
>>69034603
i had thought about this and i just want them to be competitive while i'm there. the more i thought about it, the more i realized that they don't really have any movable parts so it should be pretty much the same team.
i've seen miggy and vmart hit homers in person before and i saw one of JV's best starts in 2014 so i don't know what else i can look forward to except for fulmer
>>69034675
Who are they playing and where are they playing in that time period? I can't be arsed to look it up right now.
>>69034758
homestand with the astros (i would actually like to see fister pitch) the whos (i've seen sale pitch before, wow) and the mets, which should be good if syndergaard and matz can stay healthy.
any tips on getting something signed? Upton has a signing session at the stadium shop but i can't buy a ticket online because they won't accept an international address as valid
>>69034579
>blowing it up
>2.5 back of WC
I bet they want Ausmus fired too
>>69034925
it just seems like they'll win 2 or 3 in a row then lose 4 or 5 in a row but they're .500. i'd be happy for them to be in the WC hunt in late August

>>69032651

>>69035148
I really, really hope that's what actually happened.
>>69035002
ERA is a meme stat. Bumgarner deserves the Cy Young.
>>69035653
In 2016? Lol
>>69035707
How old is that image? Stop living in the past, grandpa. The future is now, and its name is Madison Bumgarner.
>>69035118
not while Kershaw is in Terminator mode like he has been the past 4 or 5 years
>>69035002
>our only good pitcher leads the AL in ERA
>he's a knuckleballer
>>69035653
worship for past posteason performance is a meme. See, I can play that game too.
Right now Bum getting the CYA would be like in 1998 when Sammy Sosa lost the HR race but got the NL MVP over Big Mac for "leading the Cusb to the playoffs", McGwire in this scenario being Kershaw. CK's better than Bumgarner, deal with it.
>>69035766
>better than Bumgarner
I will not sit here and pander to your fantasy world where any pitcher on Earth is better than Madison Bumgarner. It's an insult to the sport of baseball, and, quite frankly, to the very idea of statistics and mathematics.
Please, for your own sake, don't argue any further. You're just embarrassing yourself.
>>69035811
Denial is the first stage of grief, I guess
>>69035811
Bumgarner's a meme just like the rest of his team
>>69035737
>How old is that image?
2 starts ago. So 14 days.
Stop living in the past, grandpa.
14 says ago.
The future is now, and its name is Madison Bumgarner
Lol this is the greatest pitcher of all-time.. There is no need to be upset.

nah, I don't think so
>>69036619
The White Texan way is to pay brown people to do our dirty work for us.
>>69036647
Does it have anything to do with Texas being fat while struggling to get out of bed?
>>69036619
He is white, he's just tanned because of the Texas sun, Odor does that sound Hispanic? No way Jose
>>69036668
Hispanics have higher obesity rates than whites
>>69036668
If Texans are fat, why are we the best team in the league?
I'm not a Rangers fan, but this team may be the best team ever, yea I said EVER. I'm just a realist.

We need a new rule on here, if you disrespect the best team in the league you get a warning and then if you do it again, WHAM, ban, that will cut down on all the Anti Rangers shitposting and fix this general.
>>69036960
Put your trip back on kiki
The Rangers deserve a ring, Beltre deserves a ring, I deserve a ring, I been through hell and back since 2011 and it's time for my redemption.
Give me my fucking ring
>>69037019
It's coming. Nobody can stop us. We're the best team in baseball with the stats to back it up. They're almost making it too easy for us
>>69036960
Is there something that can stop the pro rags shitposting?
Why is every rags fan so fucking salty?
>>69037329

I actually miss it when the whos were at the top. Their fans talked about collapses, which they were right about but otherwise were okay. Nothing near this level of bad from these Randers fans.
>>69037373
Yeah this guy is a great example
>>69037369
Lighten up chief. It's not even the asb yet.
>>69037393
is Randers supposed to be an insult?
>>69037421
>rags
>>69037393
Sigh...... at least we knew that we were destined for last place. Every true White Sox fan on this board could come together and commiserate the fact that, yes, while we're in first place, the collapse was bound to happen. I'm just glad the loyal White Sox posters in these threads united in our misery and constantly informed the whole of /sp/ how miserable we were. 50 posts per thread detailing our misery was good, but 100 would have been better.
Sigh.... another disappointment.

>failing
Don't watch the Frisco Giants much do ya kid
how do you stop the Texas Rangers?
>>69032293
Who here /more wins but still not the top/?
I think I speak for everyone here when I say "THANK YOU" to the Rangers for saving our slow, lifeless mlb general, their fans are truly a beacon of light here.
>>69032293
Who here /unstoppable/?
>>69037881
Never. The manager is sitting in the dugout not the one throwing.
Cleveland has a pure and loyal fanbase that most "bigger" cities would trade their skyscrapers for. We were 100% loyal when LeBron came back, and now that the Indians are #1 in the division we're 100% behind them. That's the kind of fan that Cleveland brings to the scene.
Be jealous and be mad but you still BE LOSIN!!!! FOr the LAND!!!
>>69034142
Then why aren't they on a ten game win streak, the longest so far this year?
>>69038011
>go to back to back WS
>lose both
so apparently the Rags can stop the Rags
>>69038161
Indians suck, Cleveland will never win a championship
>>69038181
Kiddo we won the lawn darts trophy this year already and you think we're done??? Think again kid Cleveland's got this shit right exactly in the bag.
>>69038175
not even the Giants have won back to back Pennants
Rangers > Giants
>>69036916
How can the Rags stop the Windians once Brantley gets off of DL?
>>69037019
The Indians deserve a win far more than you
>>69038204
Dont you EVER call me a kid again. I consider myself an honorary mod, Im their eyes and ears when they arent here, I pay for a 4chan captcha pass and fund this website, I guess what I'm trying to say is, the mods favor us, Rangers fans are a protected species on here, so think twice before you trash talk the Rangers on here, you may just find yourself with a ban
>>69037469
No they dont. Cusb are still on top.

I just got back into baseball what I used to watch the mariners way back in the mid 90's when they were a farm team for world champions. What should I know about them now?
Is this the >rags general?
>rags
>>69038661
They were good for about a month this year.
How sad is it that Indians "fans" didnt even pop up here until their team got slightly above average? Meanwhile Rangers fans have been the driving force behind this board for what, 6, 7 years now?

IMPORTANT STRAW POLL
"Fan voting for the All-Star Game was a mistake."
http://www.strawpoll.me/10611160
What do you think Joe Girardi was thinking when he had to bring his team out at 2:15 am?
You think he was mad that his team had to actually play baseball to get a win?
Will Joe Girardi get fired soon considering he is one of the worst Ya meet managers of all time?
How much longer are the abysmal Yankees are going to stay out of the playoffs? I say another 5-6 years
While the Cubs have been playing around 500 ball the last few months the Rangers are actually the leagues hottest team.
I wonder what the statistic is for teams of each league that are the first to 50 wins and how often they appear in the World Series that year
The Rangers are the most clutch team in baseball right now is it destiny?
I have a good feeling about this year
What got you into baseball?
For many years, I knew the Royals, but was more interested in video games than baseball. That is, until the World Series came in 2014. I had to watch it. I was pretty bummed after we lost, but I knew we would want to try again. I picked lots and lots about the game during the offseason, and followed the Royals all through 2015, and I still do today. I know I sound like a bandwagoner, but I'm not going to hop off this bandwagon for a long time. Probably not ever.
Tl;dr, the Royals showed me baseball was my favorite sport.
>>69038721
The cry of the bandwagoner.
>>69038749
>I saw a game once! I'm die-hard!
Cleveland has got to be the most fair-weather fanbase in all of sports. LeBron left, the Cavs had 0 fans, and now that he's back everyone's a lifelong fan again.
It took your team being in first place for you to even come to these threads.
I'm disgusted. This is disgusting.

>>69039174
No, but if a black guy has blue or green eyes it always means one or more of his ancestors were white. Blue eyes literally do not exist without white genes.

I fucking hate that people still call this a Browns town.
The Browns fucking suck and the Indians are doing fucking fantastic. How the hell do people still support that decrepit football franchise when it's not even the same franchise as the pre-Baltimore move. The Browns front office has been a mess since 1999 and they don't give a damn about the fans.
Yeah, I'll always be a fan of the Browns, but this should be a Tribe town, dammit! And a World Series championship here in Cleveland would mean more to me than an NBA championship or Super Bowl.
>Jeff Bannister is still employed despite being the scummiest manager in baseball
I can understand Farrell still having a job but this guy is hot garbage
>>69039897
>mean more to me than an NBA championship
A spelling bee third place trophy is worth more than that moneygrabbing farce
>>69039897
Tbh Ohio as a whole really worships football on all three levels. Not quite on the level of Texas, but close. So it sucks for Clevelanders that the Browns have been shit for a long time, but the love for the sport is still there.
>>69039952
I like the Cavs. Don't get me wrong. I still remember the Daugherty/Price/Nance/Ehlo era. I remember going to games at the Richfield Coliseum.
That said, the Indians have always been my #1 team and I still remember seeing them play their last few years at Municipal before the Jake opened up.
>>69039972
I don't get it though. We ignore our other great teams and just blindly follow the NFL's shittiest franchise.
>>69040040

>Rangers are overrated edition
You can only reply to this post if your team has won 10 of their last 10 games.
>>69040147
With the Curse Reversed and the Indians playing so well I wouldn't be surprised if they don't start selling out. Why did they stop going after having literally record breaking streak of sell out games? The management was famously horrible, never kept a talent long enough to make a winning team, plus economy tanking. Despite that they've only been /really/ bad with attendance the past 5 years. Well, everything is improving and they'll come back.

How about the 97 world series or the 2007 ALCS? You were up 3 games to 1

Didn't I tell you that you weren't allowed to reply to me?
>>69038512
I don't actually live in Cleveland. It's a 3 hour drive north on 77 to get there. I still try to make it to games when I can.
>>69040179
You wouldn't be saying this if you were near the top and were ripping on another team faggot
>>69038701
>/MLB/ is an accurate reflection of fanbase's
Not hardly.
>>69040483
What part of Ohio are you in? I'm in Akron and getting up to the games is a pain in the ass enough but I still try and go to games a few times a month.
77 is such a bitch.
First to 50 wins.
First to have a rookie be ROTY and MVP.
First to never give up.
First to give Beltre what he deserves.
First to bring Texas a world series win.
This is our year.
>>69038701
I've been an Indians fan since the late 80's when I started watching games with my dad and my grandpa.
>>69038798
I always go into each season with the highest of hopes. I rarely, if ever, miss an Indians/Browns/Cavs game. I just end up drinking more than usual towards the middle. There are many Cleveland fans all over the country (most displaced due to lack of work). They just have nothing to brag about or any reason to make themselves known due to the usual "You root for Cleveland? Lmao, find a real team. Check the rings!"
>>69040540
Ohio Valley. Think St. Clairsville/Wheeling, WV area.
>>69040494
I'm a Reds fan from Cbus and Cincy is like 2 hours from here, I go to maybe 6 or 7 games in a season, the rest I just watch on TV.
>people calling Cleveland fans bandwagoners
Oh God I always wished this day would arrive.
>>69040650
Why because it means the team is actually good?
If the Rangers were a Dog breed they would be The Border Collie

>>69040751
I actually had to use a relative's address in Cleveland to be able to get Clevwland local channels for Browns games. This is pretty much "suburb of Pittsburgh", or at least thee locals like to think so. They root for the Steelers, Pirates, Penguins (and don't know much about hockey), Lakers (no NBA franchise), and the Ohio State Buckeyes. So it's a giant bandwagon central.

I learned the rules from playing Backyard Baseball and watching some games on tv. Got addicted to it. I would go to Borders and read expensive baseball books, would memorize stats, and checked the newspaper every morning before school to see the standings. I played second base and OF on my cyo team as well

Not so fast anyone other than Royals fans.

Hopefully they trade him before the deadline, it was a bad deal.

Anyone else think this is total bs?
I know there's a lot of people who are ultra diehard longtime fans of teams thousands of miles away but they never get any attention because those teams are either under .500 or don't make the playoffs
That is not to say that I'm hating on the royals or that cool Korean dude but I'd the royals never made the playoffs or world series or won it, do you think he'd be getting a movie?
Fuck this noise
Who else /saggyears/ here?
>>69042403
Is that the dude who made up the story about feeling threatened at an Indians game?
>>69042456
Yes senpai
>>69042496
His post was total bullshit. There are police everywhere at Progressive Field and people wear other teams jerseys and hats there all the time. He either was making it all up or he was the instigator.
>>69042581
I was at that game, didn't hear about Marlins Cuck until I got home. He made it sound like a mob chased him out, when in reality a couple of drunk tribe fans probably just told him to fuck off. And yes, there are always cops around and there definitely were at that game.
>>69041837
I'm fine with legals, you fucking idiot
Marlins Man is a fucking crybaby
Fuck the Indians though
>>69034816
Don't know how it is with the Tigers but you might be able to get stuff signed if you get into the ballpark right after the gates open and after their batting practice (home team is first). You could also try emailing their Fan Services and explaining your situation to get in for that signing session.
>>69034983
The 2nd Wild Card definitely helps with this. More teams stay in the playoff chase for longer now.

Do you remember what happened to the last team on /sp/ who claimed to be the best team ever?
>3-1
The Rangers are making Texas a baseball state, especially after we win the world series, it will go back to a football state after the Cowboys win the superbowl in 2017 though.
>>69042852
This forced Indians meme is so cringe, the Rangers naturally became pop culture icons and captured the eyes of the world
>>69042788
Why don't you have the best streak this year though? And I cannot wait for the crash on this rags team. I wouldn't care if you one or two faggots in here didn't shit up the thread, and I'm sorry to actual rags fan, I hope you aren't all like this
>>69042875
Texas, are you feeling desperate for attention again? Maybe try and pass another bill for secession that will inevitably fail but at least get you in the media for a bit.
>>69042906
You are literally not pop culture icons and no one outside of Texas gives a shit.

In what fucking way? Major League Indians are absolutely pop culture icons. Rags are literally FotM and are going to crash like before and go another year keeping Texas away from a WS

Just face it, the only chance your state has of bringing any more championships home is the Spurs. Even then, if they don't get KD, they're done.

Matz bone spur is far more concerning that Thor's.
Thor can pitch through the season with no problems, just has to manage pain. Matz spur is large enough where it can actually shelve him for the rest of the season.

Like I've said, I'll never understand why you guys hate the Giants so much that you need to lie
>>69046684
Gavin Floyd has had an awfully long career for a guy who has only once posted a sub 4.00 ERA in a full season of work

I was a starting RF. I didn't usually pitch.

>Still makes me happy that everyone else's pitchers are dying
You know Arrieta and Kershaw aren't hurt right? And whatever is wrong with Kershaw has nothing to do with his arm as he topped out at 97 even when he got rocked.

>RF
not helping your case
I'm your typical lanky ass pasty fucboi looking fuck, and I never lifted before for real and I was at my local sports club. They got this baseball pitching thing with a gun too. I decided to try my hand at it and was getting mid30s to 40s. Thinking I probably lack arm strength and am weak as hell, I then see these kids probably 11-12 at most. They grab the ball then start chucking 50s. They're tiny little kids with skinny ass arms and they're pitching faster than me.
I know I don't work out but what the fuck? Am I doing something wrong?
>>69046810
Oh excuse me mister man!
Bumgarner actually got an extra out than I thought!!!!!
>>69046837
>RF on high school team
lol that's where the weak kids got put man
how babby is your game?
>>69046839
>never lifted before
Immediately found your problem nerdlinger

>Still makes me happy that everyone else's pitchers are dying
>it makes me happy that Kershaw is hurt
What the fuck is wrong with you? How can anybody hate Kershaw or wish anything bad on him?
When did it become cool to hate humble sports athletes?
>>69046779
>Giants can only claim Bumgarner as the best when THREE OTHER PITCHERS are possibly hurt
>>69046822
My sources told me Kershaw is out with a career ending injury famm
Quit taking things so literally. Arietta is dead in the sense that he's looked like a mortal human being lately
Please dedicate the next thread as a pro-Rangers edition
>>69046867
I was all state and played on my local travel team until I lost most of the use of my legs lol.
>>69046854
And gave up one less run for a quality start
I forgive you though, just don't let it EVER happen again
>>69046895
Fuck off, next edition is Jobu edition
>>69046890
I don't hate the man himself, I just hate the people constantly posting about how kershit is the greatest pitcher to ever walk the earth.
>>69046872
Does that actually make a 20 mph difference? What about all the skinny ass motherfuckers in the majors hurling 90s?

Then I grab the ball then start chucking 80s. I was a tiny little fucboi with skinny ass arms and now I'm pitching faster than Jered Weaver.
I know I don't work out but what the fuck? Are pilates that magical?

Bite me. Nobody even knows if he's hurt yet. You guys would throw a fucking parade if Bumgarner got hurt. Stop being so sensitive, I never wished anything bad on him either
>>69046891
Never said he was the best. More lies
