When your team's operation is built upon the back of a massive financial fraud, it's right that bad things have happened to that joke of a franchise.
Isn't the entire global economy built on the back of massive financial fraud? Oh sorry, wrong thread

Miley used to have issues 3rd time through the order. I guess that factored into Counsell's thinking. But new school baseball doesn't always work
Nothing always works. That's why managers have to ready to deviate from plans.

Machado imperfect makes me smile.
And his leadoff hit makes me frown.
And he gets away with his slide into second. Damn, I wish Eck were calling the game.

He already has a World Series ring
I think all the managers left do!

Meanwhile, I fucking hate the Marlins guy who shows up in prominent seats at all these playoff games. I don't know why. But I want to beat him about the head and neck with a stick of reasonably robust diameter. Not in a way to cause permanent damage. Just profound discomfort. I don't know why. I fucking hate him.

And here I am thinking I was the only one who thought this way.

I don't get the point of what he does; not a fan of either team, also looks like he travels alone.

I could see going to the Super Bowl with a bunch of friends in a warm weather city, or the NCAA football or basketball championship game as a one off adventure, but the all of the NLCS games?

Makes zero sense to me.

Machado is a punk.

I wish he wasn’t, because he’s an incredible talent. But he consistently goes into second late and reaches out.

Plus, I’m never going to forgive him for Pedroia.
Get used to seeing it more often when he signs with the yanks

Jesus go watch something else then.
Yeah, this is good stuff. One run games are the shit - especially when I am not emotionally invested in the outcome to the extent that it affects my moods, sleep and overall well being. Also, there is a shitty NFL game on so there are choices...

Baseball is fucking awesome. Baseball with the pitcher hitting is fucking awesome. Baseball with the DH is fucking awesome. Playoff baseball with either is particularly fucking awesome.

Forever miss me with the "meh NL baseball is shitty" hot take bullshit.
