Greinke rumored to sign with the Red Sox Goddammit, you keep your filthy AL East hands off my beautiful boy. (although that article is less "predicted to" and more "one guy on the internet thinks they should sign him" so who knows) Exodor fucked around with this message at 20:54 on Feb 23, 2024 |

the Rickwood Field game is a cool idea (and I think a neat reward for the city clawing back the Barons from the white flight suburbs) but having been there I have no idea how it’s actually going to work, it’s a bandbox that basically functions more as a museum

The Cubs sent 10 batters to the plate and scored 6 runs in their first spring training inning. The Cubs are BACK.

Jeremy Pena has a new swing that's supposed to help him hit with more power but I don't know, he became a better hitter overall when he stopped trying to swing for the fences in the second half of last season

At some point, probably pretty soon, there will be an instant replay call that hinges on whether a fielder’s glove managed to just barely brush or just barely miss a baserunner’s floppy cock and/or balls

I think most infielders do, but I'm sure there are some who don't. It'll be like that Robocop parody video where everyone keeps getting shot in the dick.

Most do. Adrian Beltre famously did not.

Surely MLB has a "these are poo poo" clause to get out of their contract with fanatics

my partner and I are staying in Pittsburgh on April 7th and will go to the Pirates/Orioles game before driving to see the eclipse the following morning. if we're in town just for that Sunday (I can maybe swing Saturday evening if there's a good reason), what are one or two cool Pittsburgh things we should look at doing after the game? museums, parks, bars, galleries, restaurants, whatever you got
