January 16, 20206 yr Good thing that rule didnt exist when Henry Aaron played. He wouldn't have been DFA'd though. Otherwise we'd have done so to Brian Anderson and Garrett Cooper already. You dildo.

January 19, 20206 yr This is a trade thats mostly a who cares type of trade. Not exactly sure what they see in Tarpley because he has been flat out warmed over garbage in the bigs, but whatever. Its like the 39th or 40th man on the roster. Moran is old with very limited MLB time. So he may clear waivers. (probably should). Moran probably should have been DFA'd over Brice in the first place. You’re a who cares type of poster.
January 19, 20206 yr Looking back ... who is Tarpley and how good of a musician is he if we gave up Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson for him?
January 19, 20206 yr Just to think that the Marlins made a trade with the Yankees and the Marlins were the ones to give away cash to get the deal done warms my heart.

January 23, 20206 yr I can’t believe that terrible 3 hitter rule actually is being implemented. Total garbage. A sport that people already call boring and you just took out one of the most interesting strategical elements of the game.
January 23, 20206 yr I can’t believe that terrible 3 hitter rule actually is being implemented. Total garbage. A sport that people already call boring and you just took out one of the most interesting strategical elements of the game. It's not going to change much, guarantee it. It adds more strategy if you really think about it. Now you have to think, one out none on situation, "can I trust my current pitcher with two more outs here, or do I need to bring in my lefty now even though there's a hitter who destroys lefties right after the current batter?" I don't mind this rule and we'll not even really notice it after a couple months into the year. Not nearly the worst rule that we could have. Please for the love of all that is good do not bring the "runner on second to start an inning" idea for 12th inning on.
January 23, 20206 yr Author Please for the love of all that is good do not bring the "runner on second to start an inning" idea for 12th inning on. seriously. That rule sounds so stupid.
January 23, 20206 yr seriously. That rule sounds so stupid. It is. I saw it happen in the world baseball classic. It just changes everything.
January 23, 20206 yr It is. I saw it happen in the world baseball classic. It just changes everything. It adds a level of excitement. Other sports have gone to ways to increase action in OT periods. I actually dont mind it, especially if you wait to implement it until the 11th or 12th inning.
January 23, 20206 yr It adds a level of excitement. Other sports have gone to ways to increase action in OT periods. I actually dont mind it, especially if you wait to implement it until the 11th or 12th inning. I wish there was a better way though... this one just makes it too easy... it reminds me of putting the bumpers up when bowling. Or lowering the net in basketball? I saw it in the WBC and then the next guy gets a hit and the team walks off, something like that, and then I realized that after watching a competitive extra inning game where both teams were playing soooo well, one team won ONLY with one single and having really done nothing before that single. Awful feeling.
January 23, 20206 yr Author it reminds me of putting the bumpers up when bowling. I did this as a kid, cause otherwise every ball would go into the gutter. Or is that ok as a kid?
January 23, 20206 yr I did this as a kid, cause otherwise every ball would go into the gutter. Or is that ok as a kid? Depends how old the kid is. Knowing you I imagine you were like 15 though. Not cool.
January 23, 20206 yr Author Depends how old the kid is. Knowing you I imagine you were like 15 though. Not cool. I haven't gone bowling since I was 13 but yeah I used them then.
January 23, 20206 yr Things change. I don't think I'd want this rule implemented in the playoffs, but in the regular season, get the game over with already. No need to watch a game for 15 innings and stay up until 1 am. Fun but not really all that great for the sport itself. That and 90% of the time, games seem to get boring and just drag when you start gettting to innings 12+
January 23, 20206 yr Wait guys - this should've been bigger news. We got Cash - Kevin Cash. Has anyone told Mattingly? Awkward.....
