MLB 2018

All sports. We don't even mind if its women's Curling or junior badminton. Although we won't have strong opinions on the latter.

I have never in my life seen a pitcher with a better slider than Adam Ottavino. This is the best slider I've ever seen...

The Rockies are about to have a pretty ugly collapse for a while, here. We have the best reliever in the league right now (Adam Ottavino) but he is injured, and the rest of the bullpen is not only starting to get banged up, but they have been one of the worst bullpens in the entire league. If not for Ottavino's 0.3 era the Rocks would have the worst in baseball. Starting pitching has been wildly inconsistent, the bats have been consistently mediocre throughout the year which is uncharacteristic for such a great offense. Arenado is at his usual .330ish pace, but the rest of the team is below .300, a couple are even below .200. With an already shaky bullpen getting banged up, the next month or two is starting to look ugly for the Rockies. The bats need to come alive and stay alive if they want to hold their place in the division.

Ugh......I have only watched three of their games this year so far. None of my teams are worth a shit......Reds, Orioles, and Rockies. Goddamnit.

To add insult, it looks like were gonna have at least a half decade of New York and Boston dominating the league again.

Man......Billy Hamilton is so much fun to watch. Any of y'all paying attention to this kid? It is such bullshit that he hasn't won a gold glove. The guy is unreal. He's finally hitting too. I heard today that he scores 52% of the time he gets on base. Damn.....if he could just hit .260+.....he would be a star.

He's a shortstop now a position he's slightly above average at.

Because the #1 pick in the MLB draft is so important...

Just for how difficult it is to not reach 40 wins they already have the pick locked up.

I was prepared to lose Machado we were never going to pony up for him but I don't like the thought of losing Adam Jones my 3rd all time favorite Oriole
That's going to hurt me.

You'll trade him to the Dodgers for a framed picture of Magic Johnson's glorious smile and you'll love it.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.
