MLB Daily Thread: 7.15: day three w/out meaningful baseball; Trout given weird bat because Dodger pitching sucks

[Used 2 B Hu]

The some-stars game happened last night. Some of you cared.

Mike Trout homered in his first at-bat off an over rated Dodgers "pitcher" and was thus granted his second consecutive MVP award.

A second over rated Dodgers pitcher let the game get out of reach, bringing good news to all potential AL pennant winners and delusional yankee fans.

But the highlight of the night was clearly the pitching performance of Jacob deGrom, who struck out the side on 10 pitches and then got to meet Erin Andrews in the dugout.

Also Prince Fielder is fatter than ever; it appears his neck fusion surgery was a failure.

Will it ever end?

The look on Greinke's face was priceless. His "social anxiety" suddenly flared up.

Oh, he's just trying to stay relevant. He wasn't allowed to do any of that last year because Jeets was retiring

I watched on mute.

 

[Rock Strongo]

how fucking good is mike trout?

wasnt he in the yankees back yard and they missed him?

baseball, for all its flaws, has a tremendous crop of young stars that kids can relate to...which is great for the games future IMO.

That whole knock-knock thing looks like hot garbage. The actress they had playing a huge yankee fan was terrible

Ehhh, he's all right I guess, don't wanna get too excited prior to him going on the 60-day or having to go get TJ surgery.

Royals beat the NL

looks like the fans were right. Should have had more starters in the game

 

[Rock Strongo]

I heard on 98.5 that “several GM’s” have said when xander bogaerts is a FA entering his 27th birthday in 2019, he will command “well over 200 million dollars” and is going to be “the new star at short stop”.


Hes really, really good…coachable, smart…talented. hes learning his craft, and the HR power will come.
