MLB 2019 -- Official Discussion Thread

Bashing cubs fans is a new all-time low. There are no more dedicated and friendly fans in all of sport.

Every once in a while SF comes up with a funny one.

I heard they made the jerseys monochrome so the players accessories would stand out more. I just wish most of the players gave some actual thought into their nicknames for the weekend. Too many guys turning Kris Davis into KD and Grisham into Grish.

There probably is a character limit. And a nickname is supposed to be shorter.

There are multiple nicknames with at least 18 characters. These guys are just lazy.

Maybe, but a funny thing about nicknames especially in a team sport l, they are given you don't pick your own so while you might have choice on what goes on the back of the Jersey but if it is something you just made up, you are going to get some shit from your team mates.

Every Cub could go with "D D" on the nameplate and 0.2 as their GPA, I mean number.

They have worse people as fans, although I can't name any.

See such a fucking homer, so lacking in self awareness that you wonder why everyone knows you a partisan hack bitch.

Salute to the Cubbies.

First time i my life I rooted for the Cardinals. See either one (or both) of these teams fail brings joy to me. Seeing the Cubs fail in such epic fashion, getting swept at home, makes my week

Meanwhile, the Brewers are beating the odds by not only making the playoffs, but doing so without the MVP.

I found the Jays to be entertaining enough once they got Vladdie, Bo and Cav into the line up.

I actually thought Bichette and Biggio were more impressive overall than Guerrero at this juncture

The Brewers are hanging VERY tough without Yelich. With him, I think their lineup rivals L.A.'s. And Hader can be hellacious in a playoff series with any of the NL teams.

Anyway, Po5, thanks for the thoughts and prayers during the Birds' conquest of the godless commie cubs.

Yes, they are performing well in the MLB major/minors. The Yankees, Red Sox and Dodgers can't wait to trade for them once they get near free agency or sign them once they reach it.

Yeah, that's pretty much why I don't give a shit about MLB.

It's the Yankees and the Red Sox and fuck everybody else. Not worth spending my money on.

Plus baseball is as boring as watching the grass grow, there's that too.
