2024 MLB Thread - Paul Skenes is HIM

What's the best pitching matchup today? sort of down on the starters this year.

 

9:45 tonight seems so far away so not having the braves game to eat up a couple hours is not tight imo

 

Spicy Paul

 

yeah Strider/Wheeler is doing a lot of work there. I do like Webb/Darvish.

 

no I'm poor it's in the name.

 

O’s on pace to win 162 folks

 

Can confirm Anthony Rendón is still bad at playing baseball.

 

Love Wash, and I know he wanted to manage again, but the Angels are so fucking bad.

 

Trout on pace for 648 HRs

Feels good to post

 

Nationals fandom this season in a nutshell:
- Try to win game 1 so we can be over .500 at one point this season
- Outperformance is 70 wins
- Hope the young guys succeed when called up
- Sell pieces at the deadline
- Last season of Corbin contract, see bullet point above
- Re-watch 2019 World Series highlights

 

Jung hoo Lee warshed

 

Shout out to Martin Maldonado for still being an opening day at age 37

 

James Wood when?

 

Soto and Judge back to back hnnnnnnnnnnng

 

Decent chance he’s our all star. He had a good spring batting over .300 so I’ll take .280 or so with 20-25 homers. I’ve tempered my expectations some since we first got him but he’s a cornerstone of the rebuild.

 

Shocker Ohtani took a huge gamble rounding 2nd like that

 

Ohtani ran himself into an out on a double. Maybe he really is that dumb?

As good as Soto is, weird to see him on his 3rd team at only 25.

 

He didn’t have his interpreter to teach him the signs

 

3rd base coach has his phone and needs FaceID for his Fan Duel account.

 

God Bally sucks.

 

Great way to keep your OBP high while nailing the under on your runs scored prop bet

 

Had to live bet the trout season homers overs

 

one day after we don’t lose a year of control for promoting him

 

I hope by June. His Spring Training stats were bolstered by early games with lower quality pitching. Glad he’s staying in the minors so we don’t kill his confidence if he struggles early. IMO Crews is more MLB ready

 

I'm gonna be honest, I saw this and assumed they went yard back to back. Go to gamecast and see that Soto walked and Judge GIDP. I guess it's for the potential not the first rep?

 

Na sorry it was just after seeing their names in the lineup back to back

 

Here’s Soto doing his little schimmy. It makes the women in Washington puke.

I miss him so much.

 

Nestor:

 

Get bitched cortes

 

Astros post dusty lineup construction makes them even more dangerous

 

We back

 

They’re doing this revolutionary thing of getting your best players more at bats and not playing a catcher who hit .090

 

royce lewis just limped off

 

Nestor Cortes is the first man of the season to be placed or warshed watch

 

Disagree, in that he stunk last year

 

Webb continuing to own this team

 

Big, if true.

 

Hopefully Amazon can do something with it lol
