One of them compared Marwin Gonzalez, a career utility player, to Mickey Mantle; and another was complaining about how Sanchez was going to the HRD and Springer wasn't even though Springer has more home runs, despite the fact that Sanchez missed a month of the season, and Springer was actually invited.

I like to be happy for teams when they get good after being shit for so long, but holy hell Astros fans are so retarded that it makes it hard to be happy for them.

Some wisdom for this day:

"The number of summer ladyfriends you have is only limited by number of holes you can poke into a watermelon times the number of watermelons you can afford plus the number of watermelons you grow yourself plus the number of watermelons you are able to steal with the assistance of family and friends."

I never said he didn't deserve votes. I just don't think injured players should be able to participate in the ASG because fans load the ballot box just to claim supremacy for a day.

It is a complete joke that Gary Bustchez with less home runs than Springer is going to the home runs derby. We are all going to get robbed of witnessing springer dingers because of the yaks cancerous fanbase. Everyone go thank your nearest yaks by punching them in the nose.

Astros fans are worse than Cubs fans were at this point in the season. By the end of the season, I fully expect them to have their own DG/mo'Lester to have the cancer come in full swing.

Hey Hank, long time caller, first time listener. What do you think about the new baseball rule where every player who is 5 feet or shorter can now have part of their contract state that they can put their brains into a robot to play baseball? Do you think that's fair to everyone else?

Also Pod 6 is GOAT.

Bruce 'Kanas was right with Tax cuts' Rauner.

Class is session, pay attention. This is stat wank shit, so it's baseball-ish


Illinois: GDP $791.6b. Deficit $6.2b. Deficit to GDP Ratio 0.78%. 2016 Growth Rate 0.9
Kansas: GDP $153.3b. Deficit $1.1b. Deficit to GDP Ratio 0.72%. 2016 Growth Rate 0.2

The latter state claimed cutting taxes and spending would improve its fiscal outlook and unleash growth. That theory has proved catastrophically wrong to the point state Republicans revolted against the governor pushing the cuts to raise taxes and spending..

The former state refused to reduce spending on the theory doing so would throttle economic growth without improving their fiscal outlook. They raised taxes by 67% in 2011, but pursuant to that same law, taxes were cut in 2014 by 25%. As you can easily observe there is a massive difference in growth between the two states.

If you're going to cry about taxes as a whole. This is the NEW Tax rate that the Illinois congress passed (Which the Republican governor is against) versus Maryland and Virginia.

Illinois income tax rate: 4.95%
Corporate income tax rate: 7.75%

Maryland income tax rate: 5.75%
Corporate income tax rate : 8.25%

Virginia income tax rate: 5.75%
Corporate income tax rate: 6%


tl;dr Republicans will lose, and CUBS WIN CUBS WIN.

In reality it's just endless Yankees dicksucking. But I do wonder, MLB has talked in the past about wanting to attract younger Black kids into playing and watching the sport. Eric Thames is a wonderful role model to attract black kids to the support. Why is MLB doing everything possible to keep him out? To the constant drug tests to no Derby invitation it seems like they don't want him to be a big star, even though I feel like he could be the next big African American ballplayer that kids can look up to.

Why don't Astros fans know anything about baseball? They've been former Cubs fans for a whole year now...

>>76947660
...How do the Yankees have anything to do with this? If you are implying that Sanchez took a spot from Thames, it doesn't work that way.

>>76947755
You'll also notice that the number of Pro Yankee posts per thread went up the exact same number as Pro Met posts per thread went down

>>76947692
Him and Sanchez. Why the fuck is a player with 14 HRs at the All Star Break in the Derby? I get a lot of the choices are leaders in Statcast Categories, but J.D. Martinez has the same amount of HRs with a higher Average Exit Velocity. None of Sanchez's homers are in the top 50 distance wise and only one is top 40 velocity wise. Bour is even more egregious, with only 4 more HRs and not in the top 50 in either category.

Bobby Abreu won a home run derby in record breaking fashion despite not even being in the top 20 in home runs in 2005's first half

>>76947784
Because nobody gives a shit about Tampa Bay

>>76947758
I have nothing against the Yankees, but they get a disproportionate amount of media coverage.
>>76947803
I'm not arguing for J.D. Martinez in the Derby, but I'm saying that he has similar numbers to Sanchez yet it'd be ridiculous to even consider him.

>>76947801
And no one remembers it because Josh Hamilton BTFO his record 7 years later.
