Hovadipo Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Since we're not winning this year, (I hate to say it) but just sign Price in the offseason if we want him. Or maybe get a Jordan Zimmerman without having to give anybody up. My thinking as well. Why trade the future when it doesn't really get you anything in the present? mdn82 and Bobman1 2 Quote
JaybobHoosier Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Another Cards winner. During the game Matt Holiday joined the broadcast booth. He talked about a kid named Alex and his cancer story. Alex is actually a player on my baseball team. It was great to hear and how much Alex means to Holiday. Naturalhoosier 1 Quote

biteoftheapple Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Sad that the Yankees couldn't have a good season when Jeter was around. They are the most dominant team in MLB for almost a century! What else can you expect? Dalton26 1 Quote
JSHoosier Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 They are the most dominant team in MLB for almost a century! What else can you expect? I think she meant in Jeter's final season, and that would've been good to see. Although he achieved just about everything a player can so I doubt it bothers him much. Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted September 25, 2015 Author Posted September 25, 2015 Rose to meet w/the MLB... http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/13737640/pete-rose-meets-mlb-decision-reinstatement-end-year Doesn't sound like a promising outcome for Pete, but the conversation is a step forward. It's unfortunate as I don't see him being let back in. Ah well, he did the crime... JaybobHoosier 1 Quote
JaybobHoosier Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 Really hope Piscotty is okay! Oh my goodness was that terrible. Took a knee from the center fielder and got knocked out. Prayers man, that was nasty!!! Quote

It's unfortunate as I don't see him being let back in. Ah well, he did the crime...My thing on Rose and I am glad MLB did their explanation of this, the MLB is a separate entity than the Hall. The Hall chooses as one of its rules if a player is suspended they can't be in the Hall. While we all know Rose is one of the greatest players of all time he doesn't deserve to be in the hall due to breaking the rules. The one IMO who deserves to be in is Joe Jackson. Landis had to make a statement which he did. You don't make a statement unless you take down a superstar. Quote

There's not really any evidence he was involved (there was a news report claiming he admitted under oath, but his confession can't be found on the court stenograph), and men that were involved admitted he was never at any meetings and said they only mentioned him to give themselves credibility. mdn82 1 Quote
BtownBanner6 Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 No arguments here, my stance is to be a hall of fame and leave out to me the greatest hitter of all-time for something that didn't effect his performance just makes me question the credibility of the hall of fame and every batter you let in there.

The credibility of the hall can be questioned enough considering some of the players that are in there may not have been the most deserving, while others that unarguably deserving aren't.

JSHoosier Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 And for crying out loud baseball writers, vote Tim Raines in already. The guy is one of the best LF in baseball history. djsalway 1 Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted October 3, 2015 Author Posted October 3, 2015 Astros are 2 games back of the Rangers for the division. One game up on the Angels for the 2nd WC sport. 2 games to go. The young 'Stros went Crush City on the D-Backs winning 21-5 last night. Go Astros!!! Edit...oh and Dallas Keuchel becomes the 1st Astro to win 20 games in a decade! AL Cy young? Arguably yes.

Naturalhoosier Posted October 3, 2015 Author Posted October 3, 2015 I guarantee the Yankees don't want to face Keuchel and that young team in a one game. I think the Astros take it. Only MLB player younger than @TeamCJCorrea to record a HR, triple, single and walk in a game since 1914: Ted Williams (1939). They are good. Very good. Unfortunately, they are young and inexperienced and generally play horrible road-ball. Mchugh has quietly won 18 games this season and he is up tonight. JaybobHoosier 1 Quote
mdn82 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 After last night I think it's safe to say that Scott Feldman/Steve Clevenger trade for Jake Arietta/Pedro Strop worked out in our favor. The years we sucked since Theo has come on he traded our pitching depth in July for reclamation projects of former top prospects. This one worked out. Hopefully Justin Turner former Tigers top 10 overall in baseball prospect just 3 years ago gives similar results. Best trade in MLB in a long ass time. IMO since John Smoltz went to the Braves in a similar trade. Edit: as much credit should go to Chris Bosio as Theo and Jed for the work he put in with Arrieta.

mdn82 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Wanted to separate this post from my last but last night was his 20th consecutive quality start. Only reason he pitched 6 was cause he is going Wednesday. He gave up 2 hits and was just dominating. I have watched a lot of baseball in my life and I have only seen Greg Maddux more consistently dominant in a single season. From someone who breathes baseball as much as Hoosier basketball I wish we had an adequate 3rd starter. HoosierTrav, JaybobHoosier and HoosierReb01 3 Quote
LIHoosier Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 I guarantee the Yankees don't want to face Keuchel and that young team in a one game. I think the Astros take it. The AL wild card is Tuesday night. Would Keuchel pitch on 3 days rest? Quote
