MLB Daily Thread: 8/4/17 Football is Back, Dodgers Win Again,Porcello Still Sucks

[The Q]

It's because they wear short shorts and we like it.

In response to my post saying that I thought the Astros were overrated and not head and shoulders better than the rest of the AL, you posted:



Did you list them out using bullet points? No, but that's what you were doing.



So, what was the point of mentioning how their bullpen is built for the postseason when it is less built for the postseason than the other potential playoff teams/best teams in the AL?

That's more retarded than just not knowing how their bullpen stacks up to the other potential playoff teams.

Still haven't seen the link to the post where I said the 'Astros were so much better than the rest of the AL'. Link?
Still haven't seen a link to the post where I said the Astros bullpen is better than Red Sox or Indians or any other playoff contender. Link?

If you have to pretend I said stuff that I didn't actually say then you probably ought to go back to debate class.

It's actually wallpaper around my room. Good for any angle. But yeah over the bed is best because obviously my wife is on top most of the time.

There's nothing comfy about baseball pants.

"The astros bullpen is built for the post season. Sure, it's less built for the postseason than the teams we're comparing the astros to, but it's still an important and decidedly brilliant thing to mention."

lolz

Dude this guy also thinks that Trevor Cahill was having a better season than Sonny Gray before the trades.

Good point.

Lots of non impactful deflecting, but still no link.

You're not in the shallow end, son.

Yeah, recruit some help. You need it. I'm tired of dropkicking you. Dropkick Murphy's have asked me to join them but I told them I'll pass.

The single most important stat in baseball is the number in a team's win percentage column. Fact.
Padres/Royals are 8-5 in Cahill's starts.
A's/Fraudkees are 8-9 in Gray's starts.

Fact. Can't make it up.

Doesn't look like a link to me.

Haha what a reach, nice job.

I've participated on chat forums like this for a long time, and I've never read anything that reminded me as much of that saying about how 'arguing with retards is like playing chess with a pigeon' as that post did.

No matter how good you are at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board, and strut around like it won.

Wins. lolz.

Yeah, 'wins'. So useless.

In evaluating a pitcher? Yes. It is.

After about 9 am you will see me very sparingly up until 5 pm and then I will be off this site for about a week to finally go on vacation! Hell yeah!

Have fun and be safe.

Never said that. I said Gray has been the better pitcher. I provided numbers to back it up. You didn't respond. This is your only comeback and it's laughable.
