Encourage bat flips but if a player bat flips and it's an out, the pitchers should be allowed to bean them and have it count as a strike the next at bat.

Because it's cool when you do something that is awesome and you act like you don't care. Cool guys do not look at explosions!

Yordan's bat flip against the Mariners didn't get enough love though - it was Bautista level.

lobster shirt posted:think im gonna watch the bautista bat flip against the rangers in the edit: playoffs, not WS, from like 7 years ago. what a moment. You have to watch the entire inning that led up to it - it's like a 30 minute commitment but worth it for the absolutely wild context of the bat flip.

Red posted:I really wonder how much is Bloom and how much is the owners' going the Ricketts route of saying "we're going to make a ton of money anyway, we're not changing the bottom line for a few rings". So they think four rings is enough in other words? In my opinion FSG still wants to field a winner, and they're willing to spend to do it, they just don't seem willing to spend market rate for elite talent.

zoux posted:Because it's cool when you do something that is awesome and you act like you don't care. Cool guys do not look at explosions! Putting your head down and calmly jogging the bases is way more disrespectful than a bat flip, imo. You're signaling that it is a mundane, expected outcome. The better the pitcher the more elaborate and exuberant the celebration should be.
