As far as the human eye is concerned, the Great Lakes are indistinguishable from an ocean. They both appear to be limitless. I can tell you've never been to the Great Lakes. They are not your typical lake.

I'll be surprised if they win a single game in Chicago, but even if they do, the Cubs have over 100 wins and merely history working against them.

Just because you saw Chicago when your mommy took you to the beach 30 miles away in Indiana doesn't mean there aren't infinite vantagepoints all over the great lakes.

That's like saying the Pacific Ocean doesnt have infinite vantagepoints because i can see Marin County from San Francisco.

>>72173251
Rags are the silent Hero. We let the Blue Jays beat us on purpose because we know they are a pretender team that has no place in todays Playoffs. So we let them get to the ALCS only to get utterly destoryed by the eventual WS winners. Last year it was the Royals. This Year it's the Indians.

Technically the Rangers have won 2 back to back world series

Those fucking new ad spaces are atrocious.

question for those who actually played baseball (i never played passed little league)

would it generally be harder to hit Chapman's fastball or Kluber's breaking ball?

Assuming each one is throwing with perfect command and has their best stuff. I'm not asking for who is the better overall pitcher, I just want to know what a batter would rather face for an at bat. velocity or movement?

Basically is

>>72174828
Good musical taste.

>>72174904
breaking ball

>>72174939
agreed
>>72174904
movement is hard af to hit. Chapman throws so hard they cant see the ball coming and if they do theres so little time to react it doesnt even matter. Hitters just swing in an area they think its at.

>>72174904
Assuming Chapman throws 105mph every pitch I cant imagine there's any pitcher harder to hit.

Pro player here. I won't say for which team but I play third base and am a very trustworthy person.
Fuck both of those asshole cheaters.

Jung Ho is that you?

>>72174904

No matter how good a pitch is on it's own... what makes hitting hard is the context it's thrown in.

It's a game of chess.

Most MLB hitters can tee off any speed pitch if they know it's coming.

A 94mph fastball after seeing an ace level changeup will appear faster and be harder to hit than 102mph by someone with nothing but a good fastball in his arsenal.

>>72175287
the difference is that you have so little reaction time with a 100+ pitch that you have to guess location before it leaves his hand. That gives him tons of advantage.

Add to that his nuclear slider that comes in looking like his fastball, but upper 80s instead and falls off the table over the plate, and a batter has very little chance.

Without the slider, he would be a little more hittable.

i went to a giants game one time and angel pagan tried to sell me some heroin and dvd players from the back of his SUV

My dad went to a Tribe game in '86 when the defending champion Royals were in town.

The Tribe swept them on a rainy weekend, but the highlight was when he was walking through the slimy tunnels in old Muni Stadium during a rain delay and Royals player Angel Salazar (I think he was a SS for one year) walked by him and slipped on the slime, and my dad caught him before he could fall.

>>72178149

Funny you should mention that. Directly from the article

>And don’t pull that Notre Dame leprechaun argument out. It’s tired and a complete false equivalence and you know it.

He then goes on to say that Indians is racist because you KNOW it's racist and racism can be the difference between LIFE AND DEATH. Even though, if anything, the name "Indians" is a badge of honor.

To an objective, outside observer yeah maybe. But Indians, as in the cowboys and Indians type, have been a cultural icon for over a century now. It's based off of an image and an idea, not the literal average joe living on a reservation today.

It's like the fucking Vikings. They're practically honoring them in a way by saying you were so awesome and badass that we're naming our team after you.

So I don't get it, is it only a problem when teams are named after non-white ethnic groups?

>>72178639
Maybe, but the Indians are named in remembrance of Louis Sockalexis who played for the (not Indians franchise related) Cleveland Spiders after Nap Lajoie left and the Cleveland Naps wanted to rename the team. It's funny that Cleveland Indians get shit on for being racist when their city is the first to have signed a Native American and the second to have signed an African American. Doby's son said Cleveland's park was the only baseball park where he was respected and wasn't jeered at, had shit thrown at him, called nigger, etc. What a weird turn around history can take.

Pitch every 5 days and DH 3 or 4 days inbetween. Not that any team in the US would have the balls to do that. It would be a far better use of his talents than the NL though.

>>72179072

>>72179174
I never thought of that.

Please let this happen and have the NL so BTFO they protest inter-league play

>>72179196
Also I don't know if it's common knowledge but the DH is optional. You can let your pitcher bat in the AL.

Yup. Kersh is his favorite player and he loves the Dodgers. No way the Dodgers let him hit in between his starts though.

How utterly unpleasant to be stuck with an internet provider that keeps you on a static IP.


Blog shit aside, anyone who thinks Schwarber should be put into the lineup and play outfield for tomorrow's game is full retard. Looking beyond the obvious factor of him re-aggravating his knee the more important thing to remember is how he preformed in his last playoff games. Profip, he completely shit the bed multiple times in the NLCS against the Murts.

Schwarber is the anti Jason Hayward where offensively he's godly, but defensively he's a train wreck. At this point, it's better to just use him as a pinch hitter

File: Jose Mesa-bb810_2.jpg (33KB, 400x400px)

33KB, 400x400px

as we wait for our finals games of baseball, here is some fantastic Tribal lore:

>Mesa was involved in a longstanding feud with former teammate Omar Vizquel following the publication of Vizquel's autobiography, Omar! My Life On and Off the Field. In the book, Vizquel criticized Mesa's performance in Game 7 of the 1997 World Series: "The eyes of the world were focused on every move we made. Unfortunately, Jose's own eyes were vacant. Completely empty. Nobody home. You could almost see right through him. Not long after I looked into his vacant eyes, he blew the save and the Marlins tied the game." Mesa reacted furiously, pledging to hit Vizquel upon every subsequent opportunity: "Even my little boy told me to get him. If I face him 10 more times, I'll hit him 10 times. I want to kill him."[2] By the end of the 2007 season, Mesa had hit Vizquel twice. Vizquel expressed regret in 2014 about what happened due to his comments about Mesa (which he also stated were misinterpreted) but Mesa and Vizuqel have never reconciled, to the point where Mesa said he hadn't spoken to Vizquel in over a decade and had no plans to ever talk to him again.

You gotta love a man that does what he said, fucker threw at Vizuqel at least 3-4 times after the book was published.

>>72181930

>tfw scwarber can only DH/PH and can't play outfield
Hey cubs bros, that was an amazing game 2, what do you think the strategy is for game 3? Henny on the mound so I'm pretty confident, but the cubs need to get there head out of there asses and start hitting better when the bases are loaded/no outs. If Javy starts hitting well again this world series is a cubs winner boyss.

>>72182487
I'm honestly interested what Tomlin does tonight. He wasn't supposed to shut down the red sox. He did. He wasn't supposed to shut down the blue jays. He did. On paper he's due to get shelled but lately he's been really effective. Tonight could be an unmitigated disaster or he could go 6 and give up 1 run.

>>72182175
Mooks made the playoffs and Eaton didn't. He also has a better slashline, WRC+, and doesn't play on a literally who team.
