2015 MLB Regular Season Thread: Rights of Manfred

Who needs base runners when you can just slam home runs all day every day?

Win a 2-1 game off two home runs

[Obsidian]

All three runs in that game came off homers haha. Kinda funny that two of the highest-scoring teams in the league ended up finishing a game in extras 2-1.

[FNH]

hnnnng Jays bust out a grand slam to break up this pitchers duel. Nova walked Donaldson, Bautista gets a single, Encarnacion walked, and they talked about Smoak's .129 avg with bases loaded and he just Smoaks the ball.

[Obsidian]

Seven straight with a chance to make it 8 with the sweep tomorrow. Me likey.

[NynJa]

AAs fantasy baseball strategy seems to be working so far.

[Obsidian]

Speaking of the Fantasy strategy, I've seen a few people cite rumours that the Jays are interested in James Shields, who just cleared waivers.

Please God let this be true, because Hutchinson sucks dick for money.

At the Rays Mets game, there's like 10 people here. Seats are sick and cheap though.

Cubs four-game sweep the Giants. Just need someone to beat the fucking Cardinals every once in a while.

My best friend is a Pirates fan and we're already talking about going to the play-in game. This is a horrible idea.

Hisashi Iwakuma pitched the first AL no-hitter in almost three years. That's clearly the highlight of yet another disappointing season for the Mariners.

I was actually in town to go to Safeco for Jamie Moyer's M's HOF induction which was pretty cool, too bad they managed to lose by 8 runs in an extra inning game that night. Pretty cool that Iwakuma put it all together today.

Oh look, another pitcher trying to knock out Blue Jays. Ask the Royals how that worked out for them, Doubront.

[Aragon of Odin]

An ex Jay at that, he was just on the team like 2 weeks ago lol

[archibaldcrane]

BRAUN with his 250th career home run today, 1 shy of Robin Yount's franchise record.

Id be pretty pissed if i went from potentially playoff bound to celler dweller too

[BadKarma]

The amount of cautious optimism I feel as a mets fan right now is reaching critical levels.

[NynJa]

11 pitch at bat for Tulo
SN play-by-play guy "the blue jays have scored the most runs in the 9th inning in the league"
Tulo strikes out next pitch.


The announcers jinx is real.

[Obsidian]

Goddammit Sanchez.

Edit: Someone probably should have checked Tulo's vitals after that final at-bat to make sure he wasn't about to stroke out. Holy hell what a game.
