The White Sox sweep of the Astros in the 2005 World Series must've been tough on you.

Yep, I couldn't stand Ozzie Guillen and with the Cubs in the Astros division I already had a dislike for Chicago in general. I really thought the Astros would win so the sweep was rough.
Mets steal one :pimp: Conforto strikes out but moves his elbow into the pitch... and the mets walk it off :lol
A win is a win, but that was a btch move.

There will be a new rule tomorrow preventing this.
Edit: actually there already is. Ump called it a strike; batter should have been out.
Astros just smashed the A's for the 5th time this season 6-2. Was 6-0 until A's scored in 9th.

Hopefully, your boys can make it to the Series this time, so we can give you a proper beating.
:kobe:
Otani is a real deal. He will have to choose to do one thing soon but let's enjoy him being this century's Babe Ruth for now.
I had money on the Angels last night and they pulled through. Trout is already beasting.

It was a close series, the sweep was a bit deceiving.
Anyways, looks like the White Sox and Astros will be players this year too. How bout that kid though, Yermin Mercedes? Making up for our loss of Eloy Jimenez, hope he keeps up the hot bat.

I wanted to add, can't blame you for your dislike of the Cubs, as a White Sox fan, no other fanbase is unlikable as the Cubs fans, they are even worse than the Yankee and Red Sox fan base. They are the bigger baseball team in Chicago for sure but their arrogance doesn't match the overall loser team they've always been, and they are fairweather and low IQ in baseball terms...they're gay too.
Bravos are rockin and rollin now.
People always talk about Soto and Tatis and somehow Acuna gets lost in that conversation. He’s the baddest man on the planet right now.
4-5 with a HR, 2 doubles, an infield single, and a gem in right. Probably a .4 WAR game.
Braves win again and are now 4-4.
And DeGrom strikes out 14 batters and the Mets still lose the game cause they can't give the man any run support.
What is the point of replay? Phillies just steal a game from the Braves off of an absurd upholding of a call at home plate.
Red Sox. :pimp:

Such a horrible call.
At least Ronald Acuña is headed for Triple Crown territory. :banana:

Dude just tripled and then scored on a sac fly to the 2nd baseman :lol
Twitter Trev earning that money last night.
Let's be real, everyone else is just playing for 2nd place. :pimp:
Red Sox about to win their 9th in a row. This is the first season since 2013 that I’ve made a conscious effort to watch (I’ve watched all but two games so far) and it looks like I picked a doozy. I wonder about the pitching long term and they leave a lot of guys on base...but this team looks damn good.

Me too. Unless a couple of those young guys really step up there's no way they have the horses to truly contend in the division.
For F*ck's Sake
Another no-no tonight.
Lost the perfect in what, the 8th?
[QUOTE=Patrick Chewing;14293397]For F*ck's Sake[/QUOTE]
Silver lining: we’re 4-8 and things are going hilariously bad. An easily attainable 14-12 stretch will put us in the exact same position we were in after 38 games in 2019 when we won 97.
Corey Seager just ALPHA'd the Padres.
Lmaooo.
Loney you really staying up till 3am watching Dodger games? That's impressive.
Still waiting on a Mets game, all these rainouts, double headers might be good for them. Only 7 inning games, with deGrom going in 1, could be lights out. Would annoy me if they lose 1-0 in Colorado.

I'm up late a lot, so it's not really staying up. :lol
If y'all don't get this man DeGrom some damn runs. He deserves about 20 today.
Degrom is so ridiculous. Fastball at the letters, change up down, slider away. He doesn’t really change what he does, but it’s tough to beat when he locates the fastball like that.
You basically have to guess and if you guess correctly it’s still overpowering.

White Sox Carlos Rodon lost his perfect game bid on a hit by pitch in the 9th, ball grazed the top of the hitter's foot :facepalm ...still got the no hitter.
Chance to take 3 of 4 from the BoSox and our ace, Giolito, gives up 6 in the first inning after being given a 1-0 lead :facepalm Still early but I can't see a ball club as good as the Red Sox losing a 5 run lead.
edit; 7-1 now...can we just forfeit so we don't burn our bullpen ahead of our series vs the Indians? :(
"Cleveland's Shane Bieber is off to one of the best season starts of any pitcher in MLB history. Bieber became the first pitcher to strike out at least 10 batters in each of his first four starts of the season. The record dates back to when the mound was moved to its current distance in 1893, per Elias Sports. '" - Yahoo Sports
I like this BoSox team but I wish they’d show a bit more plate discipline. Too many swings at first pitches.
deGoat had to knock in the Mets 1st run in the 5th :oldlol: only 15 k's this time, but at least a complete game shutout :pimp:
Cole vs Bieber tonight.
Put $100 on the Indians (+105). Yankees are a strikeout machine.

In other news, prepare thy anus, the White Sox are heating up :pimp:
I just saw deGrom has a 0.31 ERA. :oldlol:
He might actually be the most talented pitcher ever.
[QUOTE=LoneyROY7;14301713]:oldlol:[/QUOTE]
I need to only bet on the Super Bowl and that's it. This every day shit is bleeding me dry.
First time watching deGrom. Slider breaks at 93. Get right the f*ck out of here.
Tough loss for deGrom. I guess when he doesn't knock in a run, Mets won't score. Thinking this guy Lindor will be a bust, lol 10 year $340 million contract. It ain't my money but if the offense sucks, he's a damn big part of it.
deGrom throws a gem and gets absolutely no run support. Rough.
