I wish Mets Twitter could get it through its thick loving skull that "I hope David Wright retires because gently caress that guy" and "I hope that if given the choice between NOT allowing baseball to debilitate him permanently beyond repair and continuing to play even though his vertebrae are being ground into a fine powder, he chooses the former" are two different statements. edit: proofread, then post YeahTubaMike fucked around with this message at 19:08 on Feb 28, 2017 |

Grittybeard posted:Is it possible to throw a 20mph ball that makes it to the plate? I guess it probably is, but I kind of imagine little leaguers throwing at 30-40 or so. When I was 10 I went to a Kids Day game at Shea, and they let us throw pitches, and I was deeply disappointed to learn that I had a 35-mph fastball. Nowadays, I'd love to see a 20-mph Eephus pitch or some wacky poo poo.

I just want this stupid Tebow experiment to be over so we can go back to talking about real baseball players again. Conforto and Bruce are vying for right field, and Gsellman, Lugo, and Wheeler are battling it out for the fifth spot in the rotation, and both of those things are way more exciting than this publicity stunt. Of course, if Tebow turns out to actually be worth a drat, I'll change my tune, but I will cross that bridge when I get to it.

You had a game, and it was, 'How was it without Jose?' You went to go eat, or you went to the team bus, it was, 'How was it without Jose?' He had his funeral or this or that, and everything was for everybody else. It wasn't for us to heal from it or recover from it." God, this poo poo. Obviously it's not even remotely the same, but I feel like every time I watch a Marlins game, the announcers keep talking about it. Everything is framed as "the team without Jose". His death tore me up, and I feel like the announcers keep ripping the scab off with their constant "the team without Jose" running narrative. It's really hard. The media is infuriatingly insensitive, and I can't imagine how much worse it is for people who were so close to him.
