can we start by trading billy hamilton for a bag of tooth picks? would be just as useful.

and i thought Ricky R was bad... sheesh this guys is fucking epic.

he has been getting hit most of the year.

our closer has one pitch he can throw for a strike and people don't have trouble squaring it. not good.

jose is never good when he only pulls the ball...

yeah this outfield suddenly is likely the shittiest in baseball.

vaughn gotta lay off those outside sliders... going to keep seeing them

didnt look like he swung.. but im superstitious and hate jinxing shit talk

have they gave a time for first pitch yet?

what time is this game starting now?

he is left handed... that's all - the rest is scrub city.

sadly... injuries more often than not at this level come down to bad luck. Professional sports teams all have top notch everything... trainers, medical staff, nutrition... ect.

its like if you trip on the ice or something.... sometimes when you trip you are at the mercy of physics usually you dont get hurt super seriously.. but every now and then - shit goes the wrong way. not to mention- if you are moving faster and trip... could be worse. and robert moves faster than most humans

uh oh.. politics

bull pen has to improve

yeah.. it just made me think of it... his hip was gone before he reached the base. But then you see him on one leg hoping into the base... he could have blew his knee out on top of it.

I dont think jimenez career is threatened by injury - Roberts maybe... but even that is specultion.

what are you talking about lol? Are you trying to sell us that having muscle and being in shape is bad for you?

I was arguing with my dad about this last year - and this injury to Robert made me think about it again - eventhough its not directly the cause. The concept of "bases" needs to be changed and adjusted - I know major league baseball is already increasing the size of bases, but i feel like with faster and bigger players you are going to see more injuries from running to 1st base. Running full speed at a 3 dimensional object that is portruding from the ground.. yeah its not very high and soft.. but still. Think about that in basketball or football and how if there was a piece of turf portruding or something on the court, its highly dangerous, Yet in baseball its a purposeful part of the game. Maybe im crazy but seems like something that could be fixed somewhat easily.

Sounds like its kind of in the air.. it depends where the tear is.. how it heals ect ect.

yeah hoping for the best... but when he had to be carried off the field... and couldn't put any pressure on his leg at all....

i knew he had no chance when a whiffed on a hanging change up over the middle of the plate.

dude with slugging pct of 100 batting 5th...

evidently if you heard stone.. Stanton had same injury today.

he is running and his right leg buckles... and then he cant use it anymore... dunno
