OT: Other Sports 81

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

He intentionally threw twice at an opposing batter, missing once. The idea that it was weakly thrown is a justification is nonsensical to me.

Especially for a completely fluke accident.

Yeah, if it was the first time… whatever. I think throwing at players is dumb as hell, but whatever. "Part of the game."

But yeah, doing it two times in a row. Clearly intentional. I don't really care if he threw a change-up... you deserve to be ejected. It's stupid.

And like.. what are we doing throwing at players for what was clearly an accident? What exactly is being accomplished?

Happ and the former Cubs player hugged it out. Why does there need to be retaliation? Baseball players are such meatheads sometimes.

 

[HeisenBaez]

That was like a softball toss. He shouldnt have been thrown out there.

He should not have thrown at Happ in the first place.

With that said, Cards broadcasters crying, Mikolas acting a middle schooler towards the Cubs bench and all the Cubs did was simply laugh at him (As they should have) and the Cardinals look really bad last night. Trash organization.

Velocity doesn't mean anything, it's about the intent, and it was the 2nd try. Good on that crew for not tolerating that nonsense.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

You can't intentionally throw at people. That was cut and dry.

 

[TLEH]

He hits him the first time and he doesnt get thrown out.

Again….its an absolute travesty that the Sox skipped the whole part where u clean house in the front office(that emphatically failed you and completely ruined the previous rebuild attempt) before they started this new rebuild.

It’s insane.

It’s something no other sports franchise would get away with. But the Chisox are so small time and irrelevant that nobody cares to notice.

Good riddance.

Good riddance.

Trayce Thompson and two pitching prospects the return

Sox trade Kendall graveman to the Astros for catcher korey lee

Is it gonna be spam if I just make a thread giving link for the discord? Not sure if it's against the rules.

I think it’s okay.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

I assume Lee is at point of making jump and should be fixture behind plate for Sox next year getting

Seems like good deal

Interesting that Sox have targeted catchers. But the club hasn't developed a catcher worth damn since Karkovice 30+ years ago, so has long been a need.

Looks like Sox got a promising pair of arms (One relief, One starter) for Lynn and Kelly

Happy with this

You're fine

Now that's a fun way to beat the Cardinals.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Wow!!

 

[Kurtosis]

Holy shit, the defense to end that game was sublime.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Cubs being fun again is pretty damn neat.

 

[HeisenBaez]

Now that's a fun way to beat the Cardinals.

Mike Tauchman is caucasian for Leonys Martin.

But holy shat that is how you end a game against the Cardinals, by breaking their f***ing hearts.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Mets and rangers agree on max scherzer trade. Max agrees to waive his no trade clause.
Deal is done.

Max for Acura’s brother. Mets send $22.5 million to Texas.

8 in a row for the Cubs. No outright selling for the Cubs. They may sell Stro but they are keeping bellinger.

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

The scary part about the Cubs not selling (which I am fine with), is the decision could look like a terrible one (or a great one) by next Sunday. Massive week ahead for the club. If it goes poorly.. season might be over.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

I mean if someone comes in and makes an offer you can't refuse you pull trigger

While Cease and Robert are very good the Sox should have no untouchables given situation
