MLB Daily Thread: 5.14.15 Sox win, Yankees lose...heres a swineapple.

[Used 2 B Hu]

@cerealboi Are you still i contact with Snoogins? I've always enjoyed his "baseball is dying" commentary and thought he would like this. It's on Grantland, FYI.

Last year, only the Indians and Rays failed to draw at least 20,000 fans per home game. In 1984, 11 of 26 teams fell below that level, and in 1974, only five of 24 topped it. As Scott Lindholm showed last year, attendance has increased dramatically during the years in which baseball’s been dying.

Travis Wood going for the Cubs. They should be able to rough him up.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Alright, this isn't baseball talk, but I'm going anyway.

I recently considered a 'who I'd rather bang' scenario in which my final conclusion surprised me.

Kate Upton vs Kim Kardashian

Discuss.

Duda manages a hit, but otherwise he comes through the first unscathed. This has been a LONG series for New York...

I killed the thread. . .

Sorry guys.

Nobody believes for a moment that you were rooting for the Rangers.

i dont hate the rangers. i pull for original 6 sans the habs.

ive said this for years. i dont have any ranger hate.

 

[Rock Strongo]

this place needs snoogins

...from your lips to God's ears.

0-0 through the 5th with a combined 13 Ks.

But Carpenter's two-run shot in the eighth off a "lefty specialist" spoils it for Bauer.

Los Padres picked up a whole game on the entire NL West yesterday.

most of us weren't even alive when it was only six teams. So to me hockey fans that say Original Six is like a Yankees fan saying 27.

original 6 is a farse anyway, its like original 12...most folded or moved.

Agreed. He must be dying on the vine over there....

Much obliged, Sugar Bear.

The only answer HAS to be Upton. Unless you are interested in getting AIDS.

 

[Indrid Cold]

interesting...giancarlo stanton has 32 hits, and 33 RBI.

Phil Plantier had 100RBI on 111 hits in '93...that's the best ratio I know of offhand for a reasonably full season.

I was right about Wood sucking. He's awful. But the Mets needed better pitching today.
