WhiteWonder 2,150 Posted March 26, 2019 Happy the Rays gave Snell a contract. I miss Archer but in reality he's only been a high strikeout guy with terrible ERA and whip. Austin Meadows (from that deal) looks like a possible diamond in the rough.... Tommy Pham could be an all-star. My man the outlaw needs to stay on the field for his defense in center but also needs to take a step forward offensively and get on base more consistently. I miss some of the players we have let go in the last year or two. Wilson Ramos, Cory Dickerson, Alex Colome... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

posty 2,282 Posted March 28, 2019 F.P. Santangelo is so terrible as the color guy for the Nats on MASN... He was talking about how games in the NL East will be tough all year especially with the pitching... He named a couple and then said "then there is areola, <two second pause> Arrieta and Nola"...

vuduchile 1,938 Posted March 29, 2019 Not much of a test for the Cubs, but you gotta like a 12-4 victory on opening day. Baez had back to back homers from the clean up spot. Bryant also homered from the 2 spot and had 3 RBIs Lester was solid. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Story’s on several other outlets as well. Like this one better? And yet, for many people the takeaway will be that Bryce Harper got booed. Not roundly. And not with at least some fans insisting we give it one more at-bat. But still, when he struck out in the fourth inning after grounding out in the first, there were boos. His next at-bat, Harper got booed again when he struck out swinging to end the fifth. https://www.google.com/amp/s/finance.yahoo.com/amphtml/news/bryce-harper-gets-first-taste-of-philly-passion-in-the-form-of-boos-after-quiet-debut-025729505.html ETA: Harper’s posing and hair flipping is dooshy anyway.
