What was Will Smith thinking? I am wondering what kind of money we are talking here? Are we to have a MLB FFL scandal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 For all you NL guys, former Cardinal Matt Carpenter (remember him?), hit a HR for the Yankees last night as the Yanks beat the Rays 2-0! It was also announced that he has signed a deal with the Bronx Bombers. Yanks have now won 33 games and are 6.5 games up on Tampa. Jameson Taillon pitches 8 shutout innings and his record is 5-1.... Go Yanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Yanks I've probably watched more Yankees games than anything this year. Mostly because of FanDuel but it's a fun team to watch. Speaking of Fanduel.....Reds fans on here how we feeling today? I need a cheap pitcher and I'm thinking Alex Wood. Reds bats been doing anything lately? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUFLA Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 16 hours ago, jv1972iu said: Giants manager, Gabe Kapler, will be protesting the recent mass shootings by not coming out for the national anthem. Said that he's doing it because he feels "the lack of delivery on the promise of what our national anthem represents". He plans to continue this protest until he feels differently..."until I feel better about the direction of our country". It heartens me when a rich celebrity who has prospered so much makes an empty symbolic gesture a couple of days before we honor those that sacrificed their lives protecting his right to do so. Tell ya what Gabe, drop the million dollar a year job for managing men playing a kids game and contribute to "the direction of our country" and I'll respect that... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason I don't go in a direction is I love the board and don't want a timeout. Empty gesture is right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 Reds bullpen has given up 4 runs in the 8th and now is down 4-2. Should been out of the inning with giving up a run but Farmer couldn't field a ground ball that scored the first run. Next batter hit a 3 run homer. It was the shift that really caused Farmer not to be able to field the ball cleanly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He brought Strickland in with two outs in the 7th and blew away the batter on 3 pitches. Instead of bringing him back in they brought in another reliever and the flood gates has opened since we are on our 3rd pitcher of the inning and down 6-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 Reds lose 6-4 to snap their 4 game winning streak. Had this game in hand for 7.2 innings but gave up 6 runs with two outs in the 8th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatShot Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 I feel like every Tigers box score I look at, they use 5 or 6 different pitchers. I guess if you have to do that to be league average in runs allowed, then so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the 13 qualifying batters that are hitting below .200, FIVE of them are Tigers. That's an insane stat. Is there just no one else to put in, or are they hoping those guys turn it around? By contrast, the Reds, dont even have 5 guys who have the plate appearances to qualify. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know most guys his age are in Single A-ball, but the Tigers need to have something to show for a #1 pick with the other #1 pick Casey Mize looking more like a bust. I'm not sure if being this bad offensively is sustainable, but we'll find out. Dead last in runs scored, 30 runs worse than the next team last I looked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choose whoever value pitcher is going against Tigers, Orioles, Cubs, A's, Reds....and good to go. Seriously though. 5 guys below .200 is just unreal. Strikeout, HR, or Walk....with the exception of few teams the whole league is that once again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
