Regarding the Cubs graphic: So what? The Cubs were scheduled for this prime time TV slot prior to their cancellation, so they were probably prepared for them. Besides, we are tied to them being in the same city and the Cubs are one of the hottest teams in the Majors. Anyway, back to the game at hand, Giolitto running into some trouble here.

You guys complain a little too much about ESPN/mainstream bias. You guys are like my Dad when he watches a news network he doesn't like... anything they say is twisted as an attack on him. I've never had an issue with ESPN/prime time TV announcers.

luis robert batting 7th, fml

Gotta respect the Indians Brass for laying down the law here even in detriment to their roster.

So all, predictions for the game tonight? How we feeling? Prime time TV for the boys. Will Bieber make us his b**** and show us that we aren't ready for the heat? Or will we conquer the potential AL Cy Young of 2020 and overtake the Indians in the division?

At least we are united in the opinion that Ricky Renteria fucking blows.

Think it's kind of silly that a runner could be out diving into second base, beating the throw, but somehow being over the bag. IDK, i'm not a baseball player.

Looks like i'll be able to watch and focus on this one. Have a migraine today so it means I won't be able to do my normal MLB the show grinding + white sox game. It'll just have to be White Sox game. Anyone else play the Show lately? They just came out with the juiced Luis Robert card yesterday. I spent 130k on it immediately.

unreal; injuries are such a god damn buzzkill

BIG yikes

agreed to the fellow comrades

Definitely an important aspect of this season.

You'd have no problem getting me to agree with ties. If every game ended after 9 innings tie or not, that's 100% fine with me. That is fair and helps the issue of making sure games don't go on forever. I might actually like that better than going into extra innings.

Bruh, I keep seeing you promote this 'tradition' of baseball playing until a specific number of runs. That was 1856. That is completely irrelevant to the game. Baseball is 9 innings, that's the tradition. With that being said, I am significantly happier with your designed extra inning rules than the current immediately put someone on second base BS.

Universal DH - Awesome, should have been done years ago. 3-batting minimum - I hate it, but I don't vehemently hate it where it ruins the game IMO. The goal with this rule was to speed up the game, and IMO, that's ridiculous. I don't think it accomplishes that goal sufficiently well enough to demand the rule change. I also think others posting about 'more strategy' with this rule are misguided too. There's as much (or more) strategy in picking/choosing relievers for certain batters compared to this. Extra innings rule (start on 2b) - Complete abomination of baseball and the game. I vehemently hate this. 7-inning double headers - Silly, but not the end of the world, especially for this season Things that I'd like to see: League Realignment and team Expansion - Not really a rule change, but if this pandemic teaches us anything about baseball, it's the leagues should be realigned IMO. Some good baseball cities (portland? Las vegas? others) around that deserve a team too and could make it more balanced. Robotic umpires - We should not have the issues that we currently have with real life umpires. Their horrid.

wooooot

why does this shit happen man now i have to watch fucking danny mendick and adam engel and other non mlb players play at the bottom fo the order madrigal gave the lineup balance now it is broken and i am thus broken

Looking forward to the game! Nice to see a sweet lineup of fun guys to watch. It feels so good after such a long wait to have this enjoyment. Let's do this.

I've never seen something so stupid. Who in the right mind walks someone to load the bases for one of (if not THE) best hitters in the league???

hes magical

can't wait to watch madrigal and roberts broooooooooooooooooooooos

MLB could be ending soon so lets just enjoy what we have its been awesome seeing Roberts play so far. Eloy and Moncada are a lot of fun too. Cool to see Madrigal up, hopefully he gets his first hit tonight

GoOd JoB WhItE S0X
