How you want your all star pitching roster National League?
why are innings limited for certain pitchers? it's so dumb it should be purely based on pitch count.
being gay is good retards
>>69421614
I want it led by Julio Teheran.
Trade deadline better be lit af this year
>>69421643
What did he mean by this
Seriously though what are you trying to say
>>69422216
yeah wow i just re-read that, zero sense. i mean at the end of the year if a guy has thrown 1000 pitches but isn't good at getting people he'll only have pitched 70 innings but a different guy can throw 1000 pitches and get through 100 innings. teams are basically shooting themselves in the foot by leaving them out there for garbage innings and paying for it at the end of the season.
im very hungover so even that may not make sense
>>69422667
I'm not sure I understand what you are saying
Teams very often switch out bad pitchers if they have options in the bullpen if thats your concern.

Hello Polyphemous
>rags starting pitching
>>69422216
>>69422994
are you retarded, it's pretty obvious what he's saying
anyway I have no clue, it should depend on the stressfulness of the innings/pitches also.
maybe something to do with the stress of cooling down and then warming up for another inning?
innings limits are probably given individually to pitchers knowing how they pitch anyway, including how many pitches they tend to throw an inning

its a massive clusterfuck of shitty pitching and choking that they split and leaves each team worse off
Giants
The Boston Red Sox and the Baltimore Orioles will have played 87 games at the All Star break. The Toronto Blue Jays will have played 4 more than that for a total of 91.
Between the conclusion of the All Star break and the last day of the regular season (which is on Sunday October 2nd,) the Red Sox and the Orioles have a total of 5 days off. The Blue Jays have a total of 9 days off.
>it's a Daniel Murphy cucks the fuck out of his former team episode
He cant keep getting away with it!!!!
Will Collins make the correct choice and stat Cueto?
>>69424406
>its a Mariners disappoint me episode
>>69424549
I hope so. I just found out the other day he hasn't pitched in an all star game yet. That's crazy
>>69423704
I say each wins one, and the final game is some 15 inning clusterfuck that leaves them both in ruins again.
Unless it's a four gamer, in which case split that is a disappointment for both teams.

Are triples the most meme statistic?
They're usually the result of bad defense, a passed ball of dive that was botched, the ball hitting a weird part of the wall and going the complete opposite direction of the fielder, or a runner going first to home on a double, and the batter advancing to third on the throw.
>>69434010
Giants "fans" unironically believe they're a dynasty without ever once (not ever even one time) defending their title.
I'm back from my vacation lads
>>69434045
Did your team give up a game losing triple or something?
>>69433987
How...is that even a giveaway?
He's on a different team like every year.
>>69434102
No I'm just watching quick pitch. I think it was the mariners game, the bases clearing triple. It should be a double. The fielder botched the ball, and there was a throw at the plate. Very few players, like the Reyes of old, would hit a ball directly down the first base line, and run to third. I'm sorry. Its 7am and there's no baseball on.

>>69439962

it wasnt if you looked at his postseason performance, everything this season is on par with his playoff line, he made an adjustment as a hitter and the mets banked on it being luck or something
also they were pissed because of his defensive lapses and didnt offer him a contract out of spite
>>69439919
nah they saw how he played in October

>>69440016
>>69440012
You can't possibly believe that any organization looked at Daniel Murphy's post-season and thought:
>"yeah, this is going to be a top 3 MVP candidate and hit better than Bryce Harper and win a batting tittle in 2016 because he was really good for 3 weeks in October the year before".
C'mon now.....
>the city of Cleveland

>Yankees are literally going to be .500 at the all-star break
That's fucking hilarious
>>69440344
This was exactly my point. It's easy to say they should have signed him now I mean look at what he's doing. It's very dangerous to sign a guy based on what he did in the post season.
>>69440410
And yet they still will believe that they are a competitive team.

Well they may technically end a game 0-0 if it goes so deep into extras that each team literally uses everyone, including all their starters, so much that if they continued you'd risk serious injury.
But even then they'd probably schedule a make up day to continue on from when they ended it

You're an embarrassment to this fanbase. Sit down and shut the fuck up. Your "defense" is shitposting plain and simple. Any time you feel compelled to disappear would be fantastic.
Oh and I noticed you took your trip off to make it harder to ID you as Tiki, you cheeky cunt, or perhaps you simply got banned too many times?
>>69463468
Tigers giving Justin Upton 130 mil because the Cabrera contract just wasn't going to be crippling enough in a couple years. They may as well just push all their chips in and acquire a starting pitcher that is under contract for the next few years because after that they are going to be drowning in dead money.

No, you're just straight up ignoring how bad they are. There's no defending the Rangers' play right now. Maybe you shouldn't have shitposted earlier in the year about them being a WS lock.Maybe then you wouldn't be getting your shit wrecked like you are now.
See, you claim to be defending the Rangers. But in reality, you're just trying to defend your past arrogance, of which I might add there is no defense.

No, because the Angels suck ass with him or not. Take Altuve out of the Astros, instead of winning 47 games, they'd probably be a 30 win team.

Altuve is amazing and the best player on our team but even when he was killing it in the beginning of the year, stros were still playing .350 ball. There is plenty of talent around the team

>Omar Vizquel Feud with José Mesa
>A long-running and well-publicized feud erupted between Vizquel and former teammate and friend José Mesa. In 2002, following the publication of his autobiography, Omar! My Life On and Off the Field, Vizquel criticized Mesa's performance in Game 7 of the 1997 World Series:
>"The eyes of the world were focused on every move we made. Unfortunately, Jose's own eyes were vacant. Completely empty. Nobody home. You could almost see right through him. Not long after I looked into his vacant eyes, he blew the save and the Marlins tied the game."
>[22] Mesa reacted furiously, pledging to hit Vizquel upon every subsequent opportunity:
>"Even my little boy told me to get him. If I face him 10 more times, I'll hit him 10 times. I want to kill him."
>On June 12, 2002, Mesa hit Vizquel with a pitch in the ninth inning. Mesa was not ejected and finished the game.[23] They did not face each other again until 2006; by then, Vizquel was with the San Francisco Giants and Mesa was playing for the Colorado Rockies. When Vizquel came to bat against Mesa in Denver on April 22, Mesa hit him again. Meeting three more times in 2006, however, Vizquel escaped being hit by his former teammate, with two groundouts and an RBI single. Vizquel batted .333 (7-for-21) against Mesa before Mesa's retirement in 2007.[24]

12 strikeouts too. He'll have to have really short innings if he wants to possibly complete it
>>69473569
my photo integrity reader is actually reporting the one you posted is fake.

can't get to 20 with out dropped 3rd strike memery
>>69473589
Bochy isn't gonna pull him unless he gives up a hit.
>>69473787
What are you talking about? What's your point? Why would that matter?
>>69473787
Only 2 innings left. The most he could get is 19
>>69473840
Oh nevermind, I see your point
>>69473849
Theoretically he could have an infinite number of strikeouts
At least we can all agree that the Texas Rangers are the team to beat as of the All-Star break.

dubs and no no-no for bummo
>>69473532
I was holding back on purpose for reasons
Bumshit unfortunately isn't good enough to complete a no-hitter in my honest opinion.
And if he does, it will be his first "individual" accomplishment of his major league career which should be nice for him.
>>69474003
dubs and drury singles
Here's your reminder that Madison is a girls name and it always will be

>>69474031
Here's your reminder that Bumgarner is more of a man than any of us will ever be.

It'd be some meme magic for real, I mean as much as I loved shitposting these past 2 years and 2015 felt like a literal fairy tale, every injury that could further fuck up the royals keeps happening, our starting pitching is non existent, and despite our AAA players and some of them actually showing up and doing better then our starters the pitching has fucked us, and based cyborg being hurt means that the games our starting pitching doesn't completely fuck up aren't free wins
>>69474129
Jonathan Sanchez: 1
Matt Cain: 1
Tim Lincecum: 2
Chris Heston: 1
>>69474187
3 rings and a World Series MVP is better anyway
>>69474187
>>69474129
Im glad Kershaw has the no hitter and MVP
In 12 years when he retires without a ring and regrets wasting his career with the Dodgers, I hope he can happy about this.
>>69474210
>Chris Heston: 1
Still funny
>>69474209
i put my team (mariners) as having a chance and its more likely for KCR to make it than for them so i believe big.
>>69474138
Hey man, I think they can do it. It's a looooong shot, but the Royals are built on long shots. Meme magic is real.
>>69474262
