2025 MLB Thread - Javier Baez Can't and Won't Be Stopped

I'm not suggesting he's going to do that all season or that the Yankees are going to win the division bc he's going to hit .400.

That said, he's got a better shot at .400 than the Sox rookie does at leading the league in OPS.

 

Cards bullpen is so laughably bad.

 

From @Brooksgate. 2 things make me think here. 1, overall zones have favored batters when I feel like I’ve seen giant zones all year. 2, five teams have benefitted both hitting/pitching and six teams been hurt by both. Is this bad framing? Home field calls? Predetermined player biases?

 

Wish we could play the dodgers (in America) all the time

 

Heaney, damn

 

I'm putting a curse on him if they stink from this point

 

Cruz is starting to make me believe

(that he’s going to have a breakout season, not that the pirates are going to be worth a shit)

 

No wonder they needed to move soderstrom to get this future gold glover in the field

 

Lordy does this guy suck

 

We have years worth of examples of him being an insufferable hardo douche, but he didn’t pick this fight. He was getting touched by a fan when he was trying to field the ball in the corner right before this clip

 

Idk how you can be 37 with 9 years of service time and not realize engaging with them makes it worse

 

Only took a Rockies pitcher with a 9 ERA to do it

 

First the boomers take over the chain gang now they’re taking over as ball boys!?

 

Salvy has 4 doubles on the day. Why is that important? Now, one of KC’s every day 1,3,4,5,6,9 hitters has an OPS north of 600.

Spoiler

India - .571
Pasquantino - .561
Salvy - .618
Massey - .428
Renfroe - .378
Isbel - .590

 

Whoops

 

When is it okay to talk about the 2025 Rockies being worse than the 2024 White Sox

 

May, it’s always been May.

 

M's won a series in Fenway for the first time in over a decade.

 

explaining something to an an American: Imagine a Bergert
(yes that's how it's pronounced)

 

Hell yeah, happy for him

 

Is this true or have I been duped?

 

Lame. MLB, Most Likely Butthurt imo.

 

Congrats devine

 

Make it lifetime

 

Devin Williams gave up 3 to blow another save. Didn't record an out. He's rocking an 11 ERA now.

 

Yeah pretty wild what's happening with him right now. It's not a rough patch. He's unplayable right now.

 

Beginners luck

 

Bump

 

I believe the marlins are doing it exactly like how it is done in College baseball. Catcher is wearing an ear piece that gets the pitch from the dugout who then relays it to the pitcher via pitch com. Alcantara is calling his own pitches though.

there are 2 outcomes here. He either gets injured and flames out or becomes a star and is traded to the Dodgers in 3 years.

 

And people think this guy would have thrown out Gordon at home? Smdh.

 

Taking a look at the standings, rockies and white sox being the two worst teams doesn't surprise anyone, but third worse right now is the Orioles. Quite the fall off so far

 

Me coping with the Brewers punching themselves in the sack repeatedly for the last week

 

And the Dbacks are probably going to lose the game. Just an absolute funk the team is in.

 

He has 19 hits and 10 HRs on the season now.

 

I can’t watch the Orioles, they just make me angry. Should be on an Astros trajectory but they fucking suck and the owner thinks he’s a celebrity when he’s done nothing. Don’t get me started on his bobbleheads of himself

drink my pathetic tears

 

Minimum has had 1 and another is scheduled soon, so 2-3 in the last year

 

we always play absurd games out there against y’all. that 2018 game where klansby threw someone out at home to end it, the grand slam 2 years ago, tonight and the murphy homer last year. it’s like the one western time zone stadium we play with a shit in

 

Also loves to go around and throw a bunch of shitty fanatics hats out to the fans, real man of the people when you’re worth like 20 billion

It’s as bad as being a Wizards fan
