Time for Maeda to go godmode again
>Sano dead
damn. that's not good. it had better be precautionary.
Berrios has the best swing and miss stuff Minnesota has seen since the NHL added the Wild.
who can stop him?
is he the hero The NL Westeros needs?
>Orel is convinced Maeda pitching slower means he's worried
>Retires the side in order anyway
>>77308711
the only person who can keep him from the batting title is the dwarf, Altuve
Grandal not sucking at the plate like he did last year is huge.
I know he was injured, but still. Plus, if he DOES start to suck, Barnes is a beast hitting .290
Joc needs to start hitting at least .260 or Based Andre Ethier is going to replace him in the lineup in September and beyond.
>>77308837
I miss when Kike would hit like .300
Chris Taylor has been a nice surprise though. Especially with our other OF options hitting below .250
>Kike
>SVS
>Trayce Thompson
Do you think Ryu and Maeda like each other?
>>77308852
>thompson
he got demoted to AAA
what's your ideal Dodger playoff lineup bros?
>1B: (healthy) A-gon
>2B: Forsythe
>SS: Seager
>3B: Turner
>C: Barnes
>RF: Taylor
>CF: Puig
>LF: Bellinger
Rotation
>1. Kersh
>2. Wood
>3. Hill
>4. McCarthy
>5. Maeda
>>77308869
I really want them to be BFFs but neither of them speak great english so I doubt it
>Arcade League bunting
>>77308898
>Barnes
I like you.
Grandal's one extra solo dinger every couple weeks is not worth the 22 extra passed balls
>>77308869
Choo and Yu reportedly hate each other
>>77308898
Not enough data to decide on 2 of McCarthy/Maeda/Ryu yet imo
>that yasmani framing
>>77308984
True. McCarthy looked so solid at the beginning of the season. People were talking about him as the best #3 in baseball for a while.
Darvish
Tanaka
Ryu
Maeda
Chen
does this staff win you a WS?
Maeda and Grandal are just hating each other right now.
>>77309032
In 2014 it would have, when Tanaka and Ryu were at their best.
Now, no
>>77309032
that staff wouldn't make it to the postseason
Kenta keeping things tense as usual
>>77309087
he does it for the TV ratings
Is Puig...dare I say it...back?
Maeda handles the bat well.
Has he still not struck out this season? I love how all of his hits are lazers down the LF line
>>77308898
Agon is an old bust
>>77309296
Agon is going to come back and hit .350 with 15 dingers in August and September
>JOC
>>77309279
YAY JOC
Nice catch.
literally the only reason he's still a starter.
>>77309368
Joc's got a babyface that Roberts just can't say no to.
>>77309331
chicano spotted. He is over the hill and would be lucky to get a minor league contract next year
cunt!..
>>77309410
why so full of hatred, ese?
Agon hit .285 last season with 90 RBIs. There's no reason he couldn't do it again.
It's not like his game is based on speed and agility.

Merely providing reference to a timeline of sports / tech / media / econ ....
She grew up in a small town in USA, Kansas, which was 100% White,,, and saw "other" people on TV, but never was "in person" with them until her VietNam-era US Army service.
Kind of relaxing to see the USA's biggest problem was the Space Race vs. USSR.
>Connect 4 Commercial

>>77309713

This is taking a while

He literally is about to hit a single for Puig

>Twins in charge of playing real baseball
What's happening, I just got here??
>>77310103
Nobody knows. Bobby G spotted something and the umpires had a huddle.
>>77310103
No one knows except Bob Garen.
>AL teams too dumb to understand the double switch
>>77310112
Why is Bob Garen such a baseball mastermind?
He's running the entire league from the LA dugout.
Sooooooo whatup with Adrianza??
>>77310133
MASS CONFUSION
how can you not be romantic about baseball?
>Adrianza has 3 XBH last night
>Geren gets him pulled out of this game due to a clerical error

A double switch is a substitution during which two or more players are substituted simultaneously and take places in the batting order different from those of the player they replaced.
A double switch is typically used in situations where the designated hitter is not used and the pitcher is one of the players being substituted. The purpose of the move is to change the pitcher's slot in the batting order, so that the new pitcher does not immediately come up to bat in the next half inning. For example, if the left fielder, batting seventh, made the last out in the preceding half inning, a manager who wishes to change his pitcher in the middle of the following inning may elect to also change his left fielder, moving the new LF to the 9th slot of the order, and the new pitcher to 7th. This allows his team to have a better hitter coming up second in his team's next turn at bat, while not having to decide whether to pinch hit for his pitcher for a while.
As explained in paragraph 3.03 of the rules, the home plate umpire must be immediately advised that a double switch is being made. In fact, a manager heading to the mound with the intent of replacing his pitcher as part of a double switch should first go to the home plate umpire, advise him of his intention, and then go to the mound to make the change. If not, the new pitcher automatically bats in the same slot as his predecessor, and the same goes for any other substitution being made.
It can sometimes be complicated to keep track of the new batting order once a double switch has been made, particularly if it happened as part of multiple simultaneous substitutions. A poorly executed double switch is a common cause of batting out of turn. The move is becoming rarer these days as relief pitchers rarely stay in the game for multiple innings, and the lack of substitute players on the bench, in the era of 7 or 8 men bullpens, limit managers' options for making substitutions.
>it is now 10pm
>haven't gotten past the 6th

>responsibly
>>77310288
brought him back after trading romo
finally a 1-2-3 inning
Chris Taylor should have been an all-star
>>77310318
quit your whining and stretch!
>>77310330
he didn't start swinging the hot bat til right before the all-star
I'd rather have Kiké in the lineup than Gonzalez. He can be in the pinch hitter corps behind Barnes and Utley
Oh yea bitches
WE LOVE IT
gg twins
Dodgers win!
