MLB 2018 regular season thread

Grrrrrrrrrr!

Also, fun stat: When Larry Walker won in 1997, his OPS and HR/PA were better on the road than they were at Coors.

Unless voters completely forget where Story (or Arenado for that matter) plays, I don't see the MVP award heading that way.

 

Watching one of Javy Baez's bad at-bats makes you wonder how in the world he ever makes contact. It'll be three pitches where he just flails at sliders two feet off the plate in the dirt. Then the next at-bat he's back to being the MVP.

 

... and they just put Vlade Guerrero in the Hall of Fame.

 

I always thought those AB's from Vlad were just him trying to see how bad of a pitch he could still hit because hitting was too easy for him if he just hit strikes.

 

That, too.

 

Fatty be haulin'

 

This is really cool

 

Interesting read on old stars vs. new

 

Hopefully one day he'll share a bucket of popcorn with another kid he met.

 

This dilemma could almost be considered theological in scope. Do you keep believing in something you’re not sure exists just because it’s brought good things to your life in the past?

Woah.
