2020 MLB thread

[ss13 1832]

It counts tonight, boys. We will see some crazy shit this season. Starts with these two... 

 

NYY at Wash, Cole v. Scherzer, 6:00 Central, ESPN (O/U is 7.5, kinda surprised by this) 

SFG at LAD, Cueto v. Kershaw, 9:00, ESPN 

[ss13 1832]

All 30-man rosters have to be finalized by 11 am Central. We’re already seeing some names that will strictly be around to run for a couple weeks; Terrance Gore for Dodgers, Emilio Bonifacio (out of MLB since ‘17) for Nats, Leody Taveras for Rangers.

Bogus season with more bogusness 

 

[ss13 1832]

All the teams’ broadcasters have to be loving life though, get to call all 60 from their home parks.

Been churning out bogus Champions for a couple of years now.

[Underdog 28781]

Will they somehow squeeze Marlins Man in there behind home plate? 

[ss13 1832]

And Front Row Amy.

With this new “runner on 2nd” extra innings rule, could make a real difference having a burner out there.

I just have this feeling NY wins big tonight. 7-2 or something. Gonna kick off a great season, can’t wait.,

[ss13 1832]

And so it begins. 

 

 

[dbecks 442]

Jesus.  This certainly isn't going to be the last one, either.

Hopefully just one of those residual readings from an infection that was no longer contagious, or just a false negative positive.

The fun part will be when a #1 starter is "positive" on Sept 28th.

Washington Nationals star Juan Soto has tested positive for COVID-19

Have they blamed the Astros yet?

[Sbbruin 21896]

It will be a miracle if we get to the end of the season, but dammit, let's play ball!  Oh, and ...

He had a false negative from a saliva test done last Sunday.  That came back Tuesday and he got a swab test then.  It's my understanding that false positives on the swab tests are very rare.

[ss13 1832]

No DJLM. 

 

Nats' ain't out yet. 

[ss13 1832]

And here we go. 

 

Castro/Kendrick/Thames/Suzuki/Cabrera 3-7 ain’t exactly how they lined it up last year. 

[ss13 1832]

Sounds pretty much done.

Andrew Stevenson?

[dbecks 442]

Ugh, it's gonna be like basketball before you know it.  (I can see why they're doing it this year, but I just hope it doesn't set a long-term precedent.)

[Hozz 1020]

I don't like watching baseball but I am very happy for the MLB to return.  Hopefully they can manage any outbreaks well and the other popular team sports leagues can learn lessons from this and the NBA plan next week.

This is straight out of the Black Mirror episode "15 Million Merits".

[Mariners fans]So you're telling me there's a chance.  [/]

 

But no, not really.  Unless that's 16 teams PER LEAGUE.

[MC Fresh Breath 4074]

At the risk of being negged to oblivion have to ask if its a good idea for a team with a player who tested positive to play at all instead of isolating for two weeks?

Baseball.... Fuck Yes. Korean League just did not do it for me.

[MirrOlure 14848]

Fortunately Juan Soto is 21 years old.

[ss13 1832]

For Helo! 

[Helobious 9466]

Fucking Christ that was a bomb. Where the hell did that come from Stanton? 

[ss13 1832]

Only 9 more for my bet.

Only real reason to watch...

[TonyTexas 10533]

Yankees hit a two run bomb and Helo can’t even enjoy it. The Stanton hate is strong. 

[Scraps 13582]

Never change Angel

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

Angel Hernandez in midseason form

[Helobious 9466]

Voit has lost way too much weight. He might suck until his body adjusts. Cole with the blemish early but he hasn’t entered “sucks” territory yet. I think he’ll settle in.
