Your unpopular baseball opinions

I think most people believe Rose should be in the hall of fame. His credentials have nothing to do with why he's not.

...

I don't think he should.

These two should have been in the Hall of Fame together ... Trammel first year eligible

I don't care who took steroids, and it shouldn't keep them out of the HoF

If a few were taking steroids or PED's just about everyone was. Bonds and Clements in the Hall of Fame.

Ban the DH is mine. But that's mainly because of me being the only fan that I know that doesn't like the rule because I'm in a market with an AL team.

DH or no DH make the rule the same!!!

You own the Giants?

He does.

I don't think he should.

All he's gotta do is die and I'm okay with it.


Not a second before.

Cal ripken is only a solid player, his daddy made sure to play him every game until he became a "legend".

Ripken played in 2,632 consecutive games but his father was the manager in just 169 of those. I know his dad was employed/loved by the organization but I can't see Earl Weaver (for one) letting someone else tell him what to do with his lineup. Is there more to this story that I don't know?

Pretty sure the title descibes every single one of my completely unfounded biases as legit.

No fan over the age of 15 should be allowed to bring a glove to a game.

You must’ve never said down one of the base lines on the lower level.

Colored jerseys are shit.

White for home.

Grey/light blue for road.

Flat bill caps are shit.

Yankees won 12 consecutive world series games, 8 of 'em courtesy of the Braves.

Just saying.

8 ?

Yanks have beaten them 3 times in the WS.

MIL Braves beat them once in the WS.

Or were you referring to the Braves losing in the NLCS and then the Yanks beat whomever they, the Braves, lost to in the WS?

Let the kids use a glove. Adults with gloves look like tools. Use your hand.
