Major League Baseball (Part 1)

You ever think what a coincidence that was, that Lou Gehrig got Lou Gehrig’s disease?

I had no idea Gehrig did this after he had to leave baseball:

In October 1939, he accepted Mayor Fiorello La Guardia’s appointment to a 10-year term as a New York City parole commissioner (Gehrig had moved from New Rochelle to Riverdale to satisfy a residency requirement for the job) and was sworn into office on January 2, 1940.[91] The Parole Commission commended Gehrig for his “firm belief in parole, properly administered”, stating that Gehrig “indicated he accepted the parole post because it represented an opportunity for public service. He had rejected other job offers — including lucrative speaking and guest appearance opportunities — worth far more financially than the $5,700 a year commissionership.” Gehrig visited New York City’s correctional facilities but insisted that the visits not be covered by news media.[92] He was often helped by his wife Eleanor, who would guide his hand when he had to sign official documents. When Gehrig’s deteriorating physical condition made it impossible for him to continue, he quietly resigned from the position, about a month before his death.[93]

And John Smoltz got Old Blowhard Disease. What are the odds

lol Royals. Teams that more recently or just started their rebuilds blowing by them and kicking their ass head-to-head.

Makes you think that their totally unorthodox success was just chance.

Disgraceful organizational incompetence in evaluation and player development

The most amazing part is that they have one of the lowest ranked farm systems in baseball. Like how is that even possible?

Brandon Drury was already one of my favorite players but now that he’s going bezerk on these useless mofos puts him in my personal HOF. This idiot calling the Rangers broadcast just said that he “kind of has a case because that wasn’t a strike…but he’s wrong because it is a strike tonight.” It was nearly the same pitch he was ejected and suspended for last night.

lol precisely

Lately Outman has been living up to his name lol

NL rookie of the year Michael Harris II has figured it out a bit lately.

Isiah Kiner-Falefa steals home vs the Mets! He stole second and got to third on a bad throw and then steals home.
