My worst baseball memory had little to do with the actual game. I was the only kid in 6th grade who signed their permission slip and coughed up the $1 for Kids Day at Shea Stadium, so I had to go to the game -- my first baseball game ever -- alone with my grumpy disinterested teacher. We sat there in silence for seven loooong innings before I asked if we could go, and the Mets ended up losing to the Cubs 8-4.

I steadfastly refuse to hate Matt Harvey, but I will say that at 28 god damned years old, the man really should be better at managing hangover symptoms, if in fact that's what actually happened.

Goodpancakes posted:Vindicated for putting him on my hated baseball player list at the start of last season I was mad about it too me posted:What's to hate? The media in particular seems to hate Matt Harvey's nonexistent bad attitude. When he performs well and owns it, he's seen as arrogant. When he performs poorly and gets down on himself for it, he's seen as useless/overemotional/whatever else. Matt Harvey did nothing wrong and does not deserve to be on this list.

iospace posted:How dare anyone show a personality. I'm like, a borderline Harvey apologist at this point, but you are making a disingenuous argument here. I defended him in the Meet The Teams thread, I've defended him in this thread, and I've defended him on Twitter, but if he seriously went out and got so drunk that he somehow got hungover despite being a professional athlete in the best shape of his life & knowing that water exists, how can I defend that? Hopefully all the reports are wrong and it really was just a migraine, but like...come on.

You have like 4 other days to hit it why are you loving that part up. He drank the day BEFORE the day before his first start. He was not scheduled to play on the day that he missed.

Yeah, it reminded me of one of Sal's first draft apologies where he says "Unfortunately, I didn't represent myself properly on how I wanted to explain myself." By all accounts the apology he gave to the rest of the team was sincere, heartfelt, and articulate, which is all that really matters anyway.

Having said that, whoever cleared him to start yesterday and today has some explaining to do. I was under the impression that he had some lingering not-quite-injuries going on and was playing in fair, but not great condition for the whole time. Maybe I was mistaken.

Tom Koehler and Adam Conley have been sent to the DL, Junichi Tazawa is on the DL, Wei-Yin Chen has elbow ghosts or something, and José Ureña is their ace somehow. It's at the point now where I'm actually looking forward to seeing Jeff Locke for reasons other than his handsomeness. Jeff loving Locke. Please kill me. When I started liking two teams at the same time, I was wholly unprepared for them to both stress me out at the same time.

Joey Freshwater posted:I don't know anything about Motte so I googled to see if he was actually gay or not and he's apparently married to a nice lady that helps him with cancer charities for kids. To my knowledge there are no active openly gay players at the Major League level. I was going to talk about David Denson being the only active openly gay player in an organization, but he retired during spring training.  quote:In a surprise to no one, I did find some other boards talking about this and a lot of people brushing it off as locker room talk and not seeing what the big deal was. "Those guys teammates probably call each other fags all the time, it doesn't mean anything. You probably only cross the line if you use the n-word" This is sad and hosed up. edit: Kalenn Istarion posted:Yeah, that's part of the dilemma Where is the dilemma? Tell him.

Joey Freshwater posted:I am absolutely sure that there are gay dudes that play baseball, just like there are ones that play NFL. They just know what would happen if they were to come out and it's probably not worth it for them and it's sad as hell. Look what happened with Michael Sam in the NFL - there was SO much attention thrown his way. Granted, he turned out to be not very good but everyone was so focused on him being gay that it had to mess with him a little bit. Something similar happened with that one basketball player. I don't remember his name (maybe Jason something?), I don't follow basketball.

If you don't flip your bat within 5 seconds of hitting a dinger, it should count as a strike.
