He really was amazing, its a shame he played in relative anonymity in SD

I just went through his gamelogs and unless I miscounted somewhere it looked like he had 35 games with 2 strikeouts in his career and one 3 strikeout game

Joey Gallo had 25 games with 2 or more strikeouts just last year, Miguel Sano had 30

And as for the "fireballer" who managed to get Gwynn to whiff 3 times in one game? The late Bob Welch in 1986 with the Dodgers

3 solid bullpen adds (inc. Kolarek) for just north of 5 million.

Buyers market.

A's pen is looking pretty deep. diekman closing scares me but aside from that, pen looks nice

Yikes. That could be lights out pen.

They’re making that Elvis money stretch.

Yeah that’s a good looking pen for sure.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Orioles at 0.0% chance to win. lmao

Tebow retires

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

As much as I liked Semien, spending the same amount of money to sign him on Rosenthal, Kolarek, Romo, Petit and Moreland is much better for the team.

 

[BKIslandersFan]

Tebow retires

Who?

[Swervin81]

Sources say he tried to throw the bottles out of the car to hide the evidence, but only managed to throw them 3 feet away from the vehicle, as they rolled to rest right in front of the officer's feet.

Gardner back to Yankees. 1/$4mill

 

[BKIslandersFan]

A real Florida man.

 

[darko]

Come on man. You don't toss out empties out the window. You shove them under the seats.

He looks like an aging washed up former wrestler.

So he looks like a Florida man.

Lol Tony La Russia

How different the below would read if it were, say, Aldon Smith and not Johnny Damon.

JFC. Not everything has to be about race

You made it race, not me.

It’s clear that Damon has mental health issues. No one drives with a .3 if they don’t. The point was some people are allowed to have breakdowns and others aren’t, but way to jump to conclusions.
