@AngelsFaithful By all accounts, they also have the best pitching coach in the game today and, well, you know.

Brady Anderson might be the best hitting coach in Angels history

@swillysports Why would you take pleasure in seeing that? This only ever happens when the pitcher is getting lit up. I’d prefer to see Mike Maddux never leave the dugout!
English
@ByMattWeyrich Because no real fan of baseball wants to watch a never ending line of relievers enter into every single game. Enough is enough.

Orioles pitching coach Drew French when asked if teams should be able to carry more than 13 pitchers on the active roster:
“I've never understood why a GM and a manager can't make the roster what they want the roster to be.”

@shegone03 @RedSox @Yankees @MLB Is there a sports league that hates its fans more than MLB? Even watching the games that are being played feels like such a chore because of all the exclusive streaming deals. Just wait until you see the mess they made out of trying to watch the all star week events this year!
English
The @RedSox opened in Cincinnati and the @Yankees opened in San Francisco and wait for it…6 @MLB teams are not playing today!
The 1st Sunday of the MLB season and 6 teams are not playing! Growing the game one bad decision at a time!

@shegone03 @netflix Red Sox opened in Cincinnati. Can we at least try to have a little tradition and nostalgia? Nothing says opening day like an inter league game in Ohio

@allie__voss @BenjaminDEKR Because the lines at the security checkpoint are long enough, geez.
English
@BenjaminDEKR Honestly I don't get why we don't allow that these days
English
As someone who never experienced airports before 9/11...was there truly NO security? Like you could just walk wherever like a train station?
Sean T at RCP@SeanTrende
Dropped my son off for an unaccompanied minor flight and they give you a gate pass so parents can take them to the gate. You have to sit and wait until the plane takes off. Nostalgic, because this is how it always was for flights until 9/11. You always sat and saw family off.

If the Challenge System proves the robot is always right, why not just have a robot umpire?

@JoeCutrufo @astros @DaikinPark @SpaceCityWX When you’re committed to growing natural grass but also committed to being a pussy. Texans are soft.

@_InfoGram_ This is not a spy plane. You have no idea what the hell you’re been talking about.
English
I'm told it's going to be closed for the game.
Jeff Fletcher@JeffFletcherOCR
Don’t know if it’ll be open for the game but it’s open now. A rare sight. This is about as good as the weather can be in Houston during baseball season.
English
@shegone03 @JeffPassan It kills me that people don’t see that it’s a bigger flex to NOT celebrate HRs like a jackass. Just circle the bases like it’s no big deal, like you knew you were going to crush one.

Someone tell him that he’s supposed to embrace the Latin culture and do a little dancing to make it fun because he’s clearly not having fun right @JeffPassan ???

@swillysports Until, that is, you realized you can’t even watch it on mlb.tv, even though you paid for the right to do so, unless you also subscribe to some low rent Houston network that nobody has ever heard of.

@notgaetti If betting on baseball (or ant sport) somehow makes it more interesting or enjoyable, that point is completely lost on me.
English
This is just so pointless and deleterious
People will be harmed by this
And for WHAT?

Release: @DraftKings today announced DK Replay in Oregon, a new sports betting offering that introduced historical betting markets for MLB. DK Replay is now available in Oregon after receiving approval to launch by the Oregon Lottery.

@notgaetti @baseball_ref @CodifyBaseball @theaceofspaeder @TheWARmonger_ @JessicaDBrand @orwellian @BigLeagueDigest @OleTimeHardball @OfficialMLBRFC @EmSheDoesIt The two biggest surprises here are that Randy Velarde managed to hit 100 HRs, and that John Kruk hit ONLY 100 HRs??

Not enough people talk about Mark DeRosa
• .268/.340/.412 (.751 OPS), 95 OPS+
• 16-year super-utility man career
• 10.6 WAR, 100 HR, 494 RBI
• Played for 8 MLB teams
• Hails from New Jersey
• 1.209 OPS vs. Roy Oswalt
• Now an MLB Network TV guy
• Tremendous postseason hitter:
• .358/.414/.566 across 22 games
• (Yes, that's a .980 postseason OPS)
• Played every position except 1, 2 and 8
• Managed Team USA in the 🌎⚾️Classic
• He prematurely rested his stars because:
• "Our ticket's punched to the quarterfinals"
• (Team USA's ticket was in fact not punched)
• MLB Network then deleted video of this quote
• 1 of 9 players in MLB history to retire with exactly 100 home runs, a list that includes a surprisingly high incidence of NEPTA guys

This is sad. I know as a politician these companies are going to spend a billion dollars against me for saying it but 🤷🏽♀️
Pervasive gambling is not good for society. It turns life into a casino, traps people in addiction & debt, surges domestic violence, and fosters manipulation.

@Riffraff3232 One guy hitting .300 in the WBC while the other is hitting.000 might have played into that decision.
English
Why go with Smith over Cal at catcher… I don’t get that
Fryedaddy/Frito@shegone03
It’s obviously difficult to make a lineup with all these great players and not leave a few guys out. You can only hit 9 guys! I personally would have Henderson and PCA in there but I understand DeRosa going with the veterans Bregman and Buxton. Henderson and PCA will be playing in the @WBCBaseball for many years to come. #shegone
