If Mike Trout got tatted up, bleached his hair, threw on a gold chain, pimped every HR and had an affair with an Instagram model... he would be 10x more “famous” and recognizable at the mall. Maybe he’s not the problem here. Maybe we pay too much attention to assholes.

It’s not cheating. I was being a dumbass. If a pitcher tips, he’s a dumbass, it’s on him. Compare it to poker... if you have a tell, it’s on you, it’s part of the game. BUT if your opponent had a hidden camera looking at your hand? You’d probably consider that cheating.

Not if you’re willing to go down in flames. At some point you just aim right down the middle and see what happens. Either your stuff is good enough to pitch in the league or it isn’t. Walks are usually a result of a pitcher subconsciously not wanting an answer to that question.

I don’t agree w this. Goal of bullpen is to stabilize as many innings as possible, you start w the 9th and work backwards. Every inning you stabilize pushes another reliever back an inning into an easier role. Easier role = more success = more confidence = better performance.

Braves could have manipulated Jason Heyward’s service time in 2010. They didn’t, and we clinched the NL wild card on the last day of the season.

@DOBrienATL I fish with my son for 2-3 hours every morning and then go do a meathead workout at the gym. Nap in the afternoon. Hit some golf balls and then fish with my son until the sun goes down. Put the kids to bed and then take a gas station sex pill and chase my wife around the house.

Want to prevent cheaters from the HoF? Fine. Any player from the 2017 Astros should forever be blocked too. That will include Verlander, Altuve, McCann, etc.
