Coming in to the season, I thought this is a team that could be competitive- a combination of the youth, some faith in the Front Office, and watching some teams bounce back from a bad year quicker than I'd expect them to. If I'm wrong, I could definitely live with a textbook rebuilding year as long as they sprinkle some games like this in from time to time on their way to a nice draft pick.

Really not a fan of the interleague play spread out over the entire season.

Holding a bat in the on-deck circle. Now make them (the ground) pay with a 2 run shot.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 4, 2014 -> 02:05 PM) Shawn Kemp use to have a personal assistant whose entire job was keeping him out of trouble when he played in SEA with the Sonics. Surely, that person should be able to do the one thing he's getting paid to do. I would maybe steer the Dodgers towards someone else to fill that role, like maybe a house plant. Never a good thing when your wikipedia page has "at least" written in front of the # of children you have, followed by "as of 1998".

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 4, 2014 -> 12:06 PM) Puig showed late up to the stadium today and was promptly removed from the starting lineup. Wow. For the home opener, no less. Kemp starting in his stead. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article/la/yasiel-...mp;vkey=news_la

I wasn't surprised to hear that David Ortiz would be the one to take a selfie with the President when the Sawks did their White House visit. I also wasn't surprised to hear later on that the purpose of said selfie was product placement/marketing for Samsung.

good

Passion and fire.

!!!11!!!!!11!!

That's 9 hits in 2 games now...and it's the 15th inning. Just a few years ago, 15 innings of Cub v. Pirate baseball was an officially listed option for death row inmates in 3 states + Puerto Rico until the goddamn humanitarians got involved.

Bonifacio back to back 4-4, with the most recent paving the way for blown save for Pittsburgh in the top of 9. Kasper's promo read for the Sox/KC game earlier was gold. "...Adam Dunn and the Good Guys..."

goddamn flowers

ayayayaya

Good

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 05:40 AM) ..DeAza hitting 3rd would probably be more "imposing" but surely Robin thinks that Conor will get better pitches to hit and that Alejandro's more comfortable out of the top 3 positions in the batting order. Most teams don't have guys hitting out of the 7 hole that can homer twice in a game, either. Uribe-esque

Trout yarding in his first AB. Surprise of the century.

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 27, 2014 -> 02:20 PM) So it's March 27th and we already hate half the players? It's a far more accurate indicator of Spring's ETA than a groundhog.

QUOTE (espn @ Mar 27, 2014 -> 02:33 AM) Sundae: 3 pounds, 12 scoops, $17 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 27, 2014 -> 02:33 AM) Hope the marketing dept. has better ideas than this... $2 off Sundae on Sunday -Marketing was my original major.

Hopefully this will find it's way onto 670's podcasts, but there is a great interview with Paulie going on right now with Rongey and Holmes- less of an interview and more Paulie just giving his thoughts on the upcoming season. Felt like it had to be 20 minutes, great stuff.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 26, 2014 -> 11:18 AM) I don't remember the PED part Could be wrong, I vaguely remember something like this. *Edit* It was Kevin & Pat Williams. Not sure why Allen came to mind.

Is this the same Jared Allen that Bears fans were getting their panties in a bunch over a few years ago for getting to play while appealing a PED suspension and also for railroading Lance Louis?

Track #6..."Stop F---ing Bunting" Quite possibly the worst song I've ever heard in my life. I assumed this had to be a joke band. At least I hope it's just a joke band.
