2010 MLB Season Discussion

[Akiyama]

Haha. I remember that. Yeah, I didn't think they were ever classless. I like a lot of the guys on the Phillies (Utley, Howard, Rollins, etc)

Don't stop believing!

I think it's impossible to hate Utley.

[Conrad]

If this would have been the Mets or Phillies..would they have continued to celebrate or clap too? I'd like to think the Phillies would probably stay out there and give him a proper send off. Thoughts by Phillies fans?

I think the fans would applaud him. There's a lot of bandwagon fans for the Phils, but the smart ones would lead the pack and the rest would follow. Even if he's a rival, he deserves respect.

Or Ruiz!

[Penthesilea]

I think it's impossible to hate Utley.

Apparently he's a faggot in the eyes of Reds fans, lol.

[Viq]

The guy's name rhymes with Buttley... even if you like him you almost have to make fun of him

[Akiyama]

Chooch (that's his nickname right?) has been awesome too.

[Trichocyst]

Yep, Cooch is awesome. He can barely speak English and they had him give the speech on fan appreciation day.

[Viq]

Ah nuts, game 5 of the Rays vs. Rangers starts at the same time as my morning class >_<

[Aksannyi]

Price started out kinda shaky (still shook up from Game 1 I guess) but he's looking like he caught his groove now.

Fuckfuckfuck I thought that was gone.

[Aksannyi]

Oh my fucking god.

[Eliseos]

Crawford looks like he's dogging it. He wasn't anywhere close to Cruz's double. Swinging at shitty pitches too.

[Aksannyi]

The hitters are the most fucking frustrating to watch. They'd swing at dogshit if you threw it at them. And all you can do is scream, "Why the fuck did you swing at that?!?!?!" in frustration. I seriously yell that at the TV at least three times a game.

And terrible throw by Shoppach ... should have just let the son of a bitch steal and take care of the batter instead of trying to race that fucking runner and then fuck up with a still injured Longoria more than likely unable to reach the throw. Terrible decision to throw and it cost us a run.

And while I'm here, I'm so fucking sick of seeing Pena and Upton strike out.

[Aksannyi]

And add Johnson to that list. Jesus Christ.

[Eliseos]

Yeah, looked like a good throw would have got Cruz, but with two outs he's going to score on a hit whether he's at second or third.

Not going to score many runs looking at strike three. This umpire's strike zone is all over the place though, for both sides.

Also these announcers are fucking annoying.

[Aksannyi]

They seriously are. I'm so sick of hearing the term "air mail." At least this year the catwalks are out of play ... in 2008 all they'd ever talk about was what would happen if a ball hit the catwalk.

[Eliseos]

Aren't they home-runs in fair territory for the post-season?

And Price needs to take more care with his two strike fastballs.

[Aksannyi]

I think past a certain distance, yes, but for the most part, a ball hits the catwalk and it's dead. They just ruled that right before the start of the series. I read about the specifics in the paper last week but I don't remember exactly what the deal is.

[Eliseos]

Nice at bat by Bartlett there. 10 pitches and gets a double off it.
