When is that degenerate gambler actually gonna pitch again?

I told y'all Ohtani is done with pitching, Dodgers basically got themselves a glorified DH on a small country's GDP

At least Soto can play right field

Whoever this guy is, he ain't wrong, but lets check the old standings ...

*opens up newspaper*

Oh look, there go the Pirates sitting in dead last at 9-15, on 4/23/2025. With their history I'm sure they'll come roaring back and win the division with 100 wins.

Even at 38 McCutchen is a decent hitter.

Pushing to bench him doesn’t make sense unless he’s clearly blocking a hot prospect.

Langford is likely legit.

Though I cautioned people about him last Spring when he was hot.

It often takes rookies a while to adjust. Langford was not good out the gate.

Meanwhile I remember the hype for Jordan Walker. And he’s not looking good even after a stint in the minors.

What’s funny is the OTHER hyped player on the coli is Elly de la Cruz, who has all the tools and makes highlight plays, but even now remains a .739 OPS hitter with a 32.7% strikeout rate. Not exactly living up to the expectations.

It’s natural to have hope with young players. And when people like myself try to calm that hype/hope we get accused of hating or negativity. You just recognize over the years how few actually pan out. We are skeptical for good reason.

We're a couple of the smart ones.

Rob Thompson you dumbass

 

[Canada Goose]

Soto showing off his defensive skills, just threw someone out at home plate to keep the game tied

 

[Remote]

We might be a year or two from the end for Trea Turner.

Offensively it’s getting harder to justify him.

@Regular_P tigers can take gage WOATman back he sucks!

Can’t even pick up a ground ball and striking out on 3 pitches an appearance get this bum tigers prospect tf outta here

Why the fukk didn't they pinch run for slow ass costellanos?

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

I take back everything I said about Marte

Pete on an 0-2 low and outside slider hits a double to tie the game, then scores the winning run, Pete is a man possessed right now

They needed to keep him on for defense. lol

The gambler couldn't pull off that play

 

[2ATMsYouSteppinOrWhat]

The gambler couldn't pull off that play
