2021 MLB Thread: Non Asterisk Season Edition

[Melena]

Just a reminder that if Tauchman didn't rob Pujols, the Giants would have been the wild card.

[synistar]

Or if the Dodgers won 2 of the 12 extra innings games they lost. They really sucked in extras up until mid August.

[Melena]

What's amazing is that with Win number 107, the Giants set a record for most wins and clinching on the very last game of the season. Hindsight 20/20 and all, but really wish I put money on the Giants winning the division. 40-1 odds to start the season.

Thank fuck Joe West announced he's retired after the playoff's end. Now if only Angel Hernandez will go.

lmao well

Joe West is doing the NL wild card game.

Won't lie I'd laugh maniacally if his incompetence gets the Dodgers eliminated.

[Melena]

Dodgers already have their built in excuse if they loose. Wah, Muncy and Kershaw were injured, we'd have won it all if they were available.

[NynJa]

Straight out of the Maple Leafs playbook, “we wouda won if we had Tavares and Muzzin!!”

[Xno Kappa]

A 106 win team losing in the wild card game is definitely hilarious as long as that team isn't yours. Joe West fucking it up would definitely be poetic lol.

[synistar]

Took a look at Umpire Scorecards and sort by accuracy. Got a good laugh.

[Krandor]

The scorecards don't accurately reflect West and all of his issues.

I think purely on overall accuracy Kulpa and Eddings are worse, but West and Hernandez are notorious for egregious blown calls and unnecessary ejections.

[Melena]

Yeah, pretty sure that just focuses on balls and strikes. I remember one Angel Hernandez game where it seemed like there was 4-5 umpire reviews that got overturned cause he kept fucking up.

[Xno Kappa]

Fuuuuuuuuuuck!

I just remembered we have to listen to ESPN’s shitty commentary tonight.

[Xno Kappa]

Gonna have to try and sync up John Sterling and Suzyn to the television on mute.

[Mertron]

i don’t get off work til 10

lucky for me it’s a yankees/red sox game, AND it’s a postseason game, so it’s gonna run 5 hours long so I’ll see plenty

[Melena]

Red Sox left Martinez off the wild card game roster due to a sprained ankle

meanwhile the yankees are not just playing gardner tonight, they’re batting him 6th, because the God that holds you over the pit of hell, much as one holds a spider, or some loathsome insect over the fire, abhors you, and is dreadfully provoked: his wrath towards you burns like fire; he looks upon you as worthy of nothing else, but to be cast into the fire; he is of purer eyes than to bear to have you in his sight; you are ten thousand times more abominable in his eyes, than the most hateful venomous serpent is in ours. You have offended him infinitely more than ever a stubborn rebel did his prince; and yet it is nothing but his hand that holds you from falling into the fire every moment. It is to be ascribed to nothing else, that you did not go to hell the last night; that you was suffered to awake again in this world, after you closed your eyes to sleep. And there is no other reason to be given, why you have not dropped into hell since you arose in the morning, but that God's hand has held you up. There is no other reason to be given why you have not gone to hell, since you have sat here in the house of God, provoking his pure eyes by your sinful wicked manner of attending his solemn worship. Yea, there is nothing else that is to be given as a reason why you do not this very moment drop down into hell.

[Mertron]

the joke is that god hates me

[archibaldcrane]

Is he a bad CF or are you just mad that you have one hitter that's only average?

[archibaldcrane]

and i mean his wRC+ is 109 vs righties this season so he's a little above average there
