I wonder if MLB picked up any of the cost of this stadium construction.

glad to see MLB striving to define the USA's virtue solely through its military, must be a new idea

they just said it's all from players?

damn didnt realize rodney was still rocking crazy stats, props

chant of u-s-a, how much did beers cost @ this game

@MrChuckD
All @nba on social media as if @mlb doesnt exist. When its still the biggest USA sport

Boy I'm glad MLB can't have the entire season's suspense gone in one trade.

of FA signing whatever.

seems like every time a MLB team tries to assemble a squad in that manner it backfires, cf every 21st century Yankees team except that one that somehow won a World Series*. the SoCal teams always try to make those big splashes and faceplant too.

*(Though that one is probably the most forgettable yanks champ team in their history.)

here comes BROOKS POUNDERS

man lackey has sucked lately

Freak failed to go 5 again tonight, must be done

you know, i never really thought about how freaking huge jose fernandez is

Lincecum has been done for over two years now. so sad, was rooting for the guy.

That Josh Bell slam last night gave me a thrill up my leg.

same

Bumgarner, 1-hitter, 14 K, 1 BB, game score 104

Dave Righetti deserves a statue outside of AT&T.

I'm delighted by the idea of every player trying to throw knuckleballs during practice

goddamn all star break

pure misery

this is kind of fun

@MattEddyBA
#Giants signed Kyle Drabek to a minor league deal and are looking at him as a shortstop—though they haven't ruled out a return to mound.

weird

move ricky romero to 2B imo why not

huh

tx is now only 3.5 games up on Houston (3 weeks ago it was ~10 games)

hadn't really looked @ gurriels stats, sss (49 games) but it seems crazy he hit .500 w/ 38 walks (11 intentional) and only 3 strikeouts last yr in cuba. that's some bondsian shit no?

lackey then spit out a giant wad of tobacco-laden salt onto the reporter's shoe

semi-prime pitching matchup: urias-strasburg

wow justin turner just put a 3-0 shoulder-high heater from strasburg 404 ft over the fence in left center

couple of sick ABs at the plate from strasburg -- single up the middle and a walk, sees 14 pitches

watching Marcus Stroman bat last night was fantastic. put down one perfect bunt and once okay one – and turned out to be a pretty impressive baserunner!

been a while since i actively rooted for the yankees

approaching Weird Baseball in St Louis

tyler lyons came in during the 11th inning and has hit twice now

Altuve's OPS is over 1.000 this morning. Last 2B I can find with 1.000+ is Kent in 2000; Morgan in '76 before that.

Altuve might have a shot at leading AL

...in SLG if not for Ortiz

hes become a much more pronounced fly-ball hitter than in past yrs

Astros have him on a killer contract rn wow

2016 26 Houston Astros $3,500,000
2017 27 Houston Astros $4,500,000
2018 28 Houston Astros *$6,000,000 $6M Team Option
2019 29 Houston Astros *$6,500,000 $6.5M Team Option

Altuve's jump in walks is all sorts of amazing, because he is still very aggressive.
