LOL not two hours after you posted this they were down by two runs in the bottom of the 10th inning. I thought for sure you had just laid a mighty jinx on them by posting this. But they somehow got out of that. @Hurlshotyour boys are going down tonight.

I am shocked at their record right now. The pen has actually blown 3 games too. I still think they are a .500 team at the end of this, but it has been fun so far. I love the Buster Posey renaissance. The way he is throwing out runners is just as big as the homers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guard Dog Posted May 6, 2021 Author Share Posted May 6, 2021 Albert Pujols has been DFA. It’s really sad when the ones great ones are no longer that great or even very good.

Guard Dog Posted May 10, 2021 Author Share Posted May 10, 2021 Dodgers have lost 5 straight series and are 3-11 over their last 14 games. Meanwhile the Giants are six wins over 500 and leading the NL west. Who would’ve figured?

The only serious issue there was a potential strike. Eliminating blackout borders. This is a big one for me. When the Marlins play the Cardinals I don’t get to watch. If you buy the streaming package which is already not cheap you should get to watch every game. And to be quite honest there should be more free games broadcast on platforms like Facebook and YouTube. They were absolutely right if they want the sport to remain viable it needs to be easy to access. Edit: Compensatory draft picks. That has to go. A team should not be punished for signing a good free agent. And an international draft that’s a definite must have. It’s putting homegrown players at a disadvantage with international players. and just from a personal standpoint I do wish they would stop monkeying around with the rules.

Guard Dog Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) Dodgers sign Pujols for the rest of the season that worked out well. He doesn’t even need to move. I wonder when a guy like that has gone into such a deep decline is he even aware of it? I mean he sees his stat sheet but deep down inside do you think he’s aware that in the last five seasons he has not hit over .220? Belanger, Muncy, and Beatty are all first baseman, all on the Dodgers and all better hitters than him.

Hurlshort Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) Pujols still has some power though. He can pinch hit favorably, I would think. He isn't going to be fielding much. He loves the games and can still hit, so at 41 I am happy he still could find a club. Edited May 16, 2021 by Hurlsnot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guard Dog Posted June 12, 2021 Author Share Posted June 12, 2021 this got me curious how many other Super Bowl QBs has been drafted by the MLB. Turns out it was more than you think. John Elway of course but that one’s easy. Russel Wilson, Tom Brady, Kerry Collins, Ken Stabler, Colin Kaepernick, Dan Marino, Steve McNair, Jim McMahon, and Doug Williams all were drafted by a MLB team at some point. 1 1 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guard Dog Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 The Marlins laid an egg. The rays laid a bigger one. Since that went off I’ve been flipping back-and-forth between the Dodgers at the Padres and the Giants beating the Angels. The NL west is the most interesting division in baseball. Except for the Diamondbacks. They are roadkill.
