Scary but true..... the moose is loose..!!!
moustakas leading mlb in home runs is a sweet stat
he deserves all the praise and positive attention he's getting, just awesome
What a world we live in. Mike Moustakas leads the league in home runs, Aaron Nola leads the league in strikeouts, Texas Rangers lead the league in not getting triple played.
Man, what a time to be alive.
Rockies 7 - 5 Doyers
>>67027122
HOLY SHIT
CALL THE PARK RANGER
>>67027140
Its not even 20 games in the season
>>67027160
IT WAS ME, /MLB/ I SET MOUSTAKAS LOOSE
>>67027172
That doesn't change the fact that the Texas Rangers currently lead the league in not hitting into triple plays
>>67027196
So Moustakas confirmed for New York Yankee soon?
does moustakas actually lead mlb in hrs....
>That triple play
>Prince Fat fuck
>>67027204
Well, he has six. and the next closest is Bryce Harper/Trevor Story, with 8. So yes.
What the fuck is going on with this Moose bullshit?
A's tbf
>>67027204
The moose is actually and officially loose.
like i get that the royals won the world series and all
but the memes, man. its too much
>>67027196
Where are you seeing this I still see Harper in the lead with 8.
>>67027237
Never thought I'd see the day.... but here we are.
>>67027237
but...he doesn't

The Phillies might not have the League Leader in HRs, but they do have the league leader in SOs
>>67027371
The other two made mental mistakes, but Prince being fat made it ridiculous in the first place. You have to score on that.
I'm still dumbfounded that no only did 16 runs on Cincinnati. But they shut them out too
Literally still can't believe that happened lol
>>67027426
tbf, that No hitter, while still a no-hitter, wasn't that impressive of a no-hitter. Game score below 90, and there was a game already this year with a score of 97
is there any wonder how mike moustakas leads MLB in home runs
the whole world couldn't have seen this coming.....
>>67027394
>it was 3-2
This is literally the worst general on 4chan
You are all so ridiculously unfunny and irritating
Fuck you all
I hate him. I hate EVERYTHING about him. I hate his meme face, I hate his meme wife, I hate his meme kids, I hate his meme career, I hate his meme life, I hate his meme expressions, I hate his meme play style, and most of all I hate his meme-as-fuck attitude about everything. Literally every move he makes is riddled with memes. You could hook up a house and suck the memes right off this asshole and power r/Memes for AT LEAST a solid decade with some left over the next few months. He has done more harm to baseball than any other meme athlete to date like Alex Rodriguez, Barry Bonds or Mike Trout. He just bumbles onto the field, with his stupid fucking grin, opening his mouth with the audience on the edge of their morbidly obese seats shoveling popcorn from the pop corn trough into theirs maws, as he slyly whispers into the boom microphone "Meme" and the audience erupts into riotous laughter because they think they get what this pandering fuck who has no idea the history or culture of baseball is actually relating to them. so yes, please, by all means, tell me I am "le salty meme" meme because you know what? Unlike this meme fuckhead I DID study sports since I was a small boy and I KNOW that anticipating the hit and having patience in the batters box makes for a superior 3rd Baseman. So yes, I am upset that you one-track-mind knuckle dragging fast food eating primates are just in love with your meme king. You two deserve each other
also, I dont want to continue this post any longer than I have to but I browse /fit/ regularly and I lift and eat right and don't have to take steroids (unlike some meme athletes cough Bonds cough) and if meme lord came up to my face in real life and tried to pull the meme covered wool over my eyes I would hit him so hard he would be spitting up his teeth for the rest of life. That's what happens when you work hard for something instead of skipping steps and cutting corners by taking steroids and not earning your keep in your career.
>>67027442
Is this true? Can anyone confirm that Mike Moustakas leads the league in HRs?
God dammit stop posting about Moustakas. I'm trying to read Aquaman here.
>>67027464
Please sticky this individual post
Let the memers have the triple play
Rangers are still going to easily win the division and the pennant

yes to all 5. Jones has the best case of the lot as one of, if not the, GOAT defensive centerfielder, despite his terribleness once he left Atlanta.
Vlad was always a top power bat, and had a nasty arm in the OF. The MVP helps.
The main knock against Walker will be the unknown "degree" the Coors Effect helped his stats.
Vizquel was revered for his defense, but was lost in the crowd when the Jeter/A-Rod/Nomar trio briefly ruled the SS position. His case would be the weakest.
Rolen was one of the best all-around 3B consistently in his career, but doesn't really stand out.

Is anyone planning on seeing this?
It's draft-day 2006
Do you draft Kershaw or Arrieta?
It's 2008 and you're a GM and have Kershaw on your roster.
Do you trade Kershaw 1:1 for Arrieta?
Everybody give me a (you)
>>67039953
if Kershaw had to come up through the O's pitching death camp too, his career would look more like Arrieta's
>>67039953
here (You) go
>>67039953
Jake Arrieta wasn't drafted in 2006. He was drafted in 2004, 2005, and 2007. Also, Knowing what I know now, and what my team was at the time, I'd draft Evan Longoria.
>>67039953
Career GOAT or fluke GOAT?
Hmmmmm?
>>67039953
Realistically Arrieta plus Bryant still couldnt match Kershaw's value.
>>67039953
Neither since both are nl babbies
>>67028608
Can they make Barry DH during inter league games? Imagine the publicity
Arrieta. Better conditioned, far less mileage.

So you're making my argument for me? You reailze pitchers with a ton of mileage get worse pretty quickly. Look at Felix.
>Also less talent dont forget. I'd rather get someone who is great at 20 and goat at 25 and 27 than a shitter for an entire career until age 29.
Yeah talent, Kershaw's resume of getting shelled like a minor leaguer in the playoffs every year is quite impressive. He's literally had one good series his entire playoff career.

He cited Scherzer, Kershaw, Greinke, Felix, Price, and Verlander when discussing contract extentions after his 2015 campaign. Cubs publicly said that they ended contract talks immediately.
He said he was worth 200M and believes he'll be signed for that much when he reaches free agency.

>>67040332
>You know damn well the Cubs would jump at the idea of trading both Arrieta and Bryant for Kershaw
>that false equivalency
just because they don't want to pay a 30 year old $200 million doesn't mean they would give up assets for a near-30 notorious choker either. They aren't related. The Cubs already have one 30+ pitcher with a long contract on the books in Lester. If they were to trade it would be for young pitching.

When will this "Arrieta is good" meme end? Both his no hitters were against shit line ups
I feel like half the time batters are so awful against him is because they tell them self he's good so they believe it.
>>67040678
>>67040678
because he was in Baltimore where they basically prevented him (and all pitchers) from using what were personally his two best pitches. This isn't even exclusive to Arrieta, it's a pretty well known thing in baseball about the O's pitching coaches.

I say top 3

If you put him above Carlton I'd disagree, but respect your opinion. Koufax in his prime was better, but his prime was much shorter. Also, this isn't to say that he was so much better than Carlton in his prime that it's not even a discussion.
And I like Kershaw, but he's not in that top 3 just yet. He probably will be. and people will probably hold him out of that top 3 because if he keeps up the way he does, he'll have a reputation for choking in October
>>67040401
Hey, if I can name 2-4 pitchers that throw from his meme side better than him, and that doesn't even account for all the right handed pitchers, I guess he can't be that good
If Kershaw is so elite why does he play on a stinky smelly team for stinky smelly beaner fans?
>>67040805
Kershaw has the lowest ERA in the history of baseball against a single team @ 1.02 (this image is from 2 seasons ago before 3 CGSO of 15K's one of which was a division clinching 1-hitter at ATT)
Bumgarner has a career ERA of 4.01 against the Dodgers.
Bumgarner by the way is better than Arrieta.

No, they'd take Arrieta because Kershaw would be long fucking gone.

Holy shit.
Dodger fans post women while other teams post rings.
Will Harper be the first 400 million contract?
Kek, even the Marlins have a ring this century
ahaha a team that was formed in 1998 won a title before the dodgers in the 21st
WINDIANS
I don't actually know what team this is, but even THEY have a world series ring this century
>>67041500
MLB should give the Dodgers a ring
Its really unfair that meme teams are allowed to win despite the dodgers being the obvious best team in baseball
Not even did they win a ring, they keked the dodgers out of two chances
TYB MATT STAIRS

>>67041768
Hey man, some players can carry their teams in times of need, some can't. I don't think Kershaw is any less of a person just because he can't play ball in October
Did you know: Maikel Franco is the grandson of former major leaguer Julio Franco
>>67041500
Even the Royals have a ring this century. They have two even.
Now that I think about it, the Dodgers are the modern day Cleveland Indians. such a "good" team that just can't get the job done. Only difference is, they at least won a pennant or two
I guess some teams and players just don't have what it takes to win the big one

part of the reasons the dodgers suck ass is that no matter how much money you pay someone you cant make them care about winning and being elite.
The current giants crop were all home grown and remember making $800 bucks a month in AA ball together where as the dodgers are just a bunch of mercenaries jewed together from 1000 different trade deals

kershaw has a shot, other than him doesn't look too great

still amazing that the rags actually let this guy go
>>67057217
not really, just true
Either way, it's dumb to showboat when the guy you're doing it against is capable of rocketing a fastball at your head next at bat

Kershaw has a shot. He's got 1800 in 8 full seasons and he's still 27. He'll no doubt record his 2000th before 2016 is over.
Kershaw if his career allows will reach 4000 before he's 35. Could reach 5000 before 40. That's assuming he maintains a k/9 of at least 9. He holds the record for most K's within 220 innings. Sale could do it too depending in how much more he improves.

Should've shown him by not hanging a curveball over the middle of the plate

Man, this was a strong throw.

His control is ridiculous I don't remember off the top of my head but he had only 3 or 5 walks total in his last college season. 70 control at minimum.
>>67057707
I know it was 7 walks for a fact. But yeah, insane. It's a shame his pitches themselves aren't really anything special. But hey, that's what the minor leagues are for

Nothing keeps baseball from becoming a chimp out, dance around the bases flexing your muscles, embarrassing NBA/NFLish embarrassing spectacle like a 95 mph fastball to the ribcage

(Intentionally) Throwing at a hitter is less sportsmanlike than celebrating a home run with a bat flip.

could reach 5000 by 40 if he stays elite and has no injuries
>would still need over 700 past the age of 40
I agree Kersh is probably the most likely but that record is ridiculous
