NL East smack talk

[Pure Steel]

Jerry Koosman's No 36 to be retired by Mets in June

Why so soon? He's only 77......Hopefully he is of sound mind....Feel awful for Seaver......

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Just 2 NL East Legends hanging out.

Lowrie to the IL

[The Derski]

Yoenis Cespedes becomes the first player in major league history to homer as DH in a NL only game.

So who else had the Mets and Marlins as the leaders after Opening Day ?

A whole lot more of this is coming I fear...

Yeah, they're now saying 40% of the Marlins active roster is positive, and the season is "in jeopardy"


Fuck.

Fuck.

Yep... if it's happening with just one team then it's inevitable. You can't replicate what the NBA and NHL are doing with a bubble in MLB.

Or - the NFL.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Fuck the Marlins, make em forfeit.

Glad Urena tested positive

soooo this thread is pointless....

the marlins trashed their season
the marilins may have infected the phillies trashing their season
the mets are the mets and not worth talking about unless DeGrom is on the mound


Braves win the division by 30 games?

Hey @Chewbaccer I just read about Foltynewicz getting DFA'd.

Kind of surprised what was wrong? I read about his velocity being down, didn't think they would dump him this fast but obviously there was something the Braves saw to give up on him.

Do you think it is bad enough no team will take a flyer on him?

I have to think he had a bit of an altercation with Snit. He's always been a bit of a headcase. His velocity is down significantly. 92 was the fastest I saw last night, and he could touch 100 last year. Also he looks sickly skinny, so he's either strung out on something or he has a health issue.

He's worth taking a flyer on. Two years ago, he was in the Cy Young discussion(not a serious threat to win, but in the discussion), and he had a really strong second half of last season.

Here's a new one....Nick Markakis has changed his mind and is now opting back into the season.

Guess sitting out sounded good until he watched his teammates play

Guess he really didn't want to spend time with his family after all

Hopefully he can make a serious run at 3000 hits, though I don't think he's a HOFer regardless.
