MLB 2016

[Connor]

I think the Mets are doing pretty well again this season. It's them and the Nationals in their little league thing and it's neck and neck with them.

Harvey was immense last season. Don't know what's up.

What's the DL?

Mets are playing fine, 27-19 behind the Nats at 28-19

The disabled list, injury list basically.

Teams sometimes send players in poor form there so they can't play and they can get themselves right.

Nats did it with Strasburg in a similar situation last season, he came back and was on fire

Hahaha I'm partial to the Mets but I'm a fan of the A's. They're bad.

Everytime I put BT on and the Mets are on, they seem to get tonked.

Harvey stinks, well and truly stinks. Needs a stint on the DL.

Excluding Harvey, the Mets are doing fine. Just took 2 out of 3 from the Nats and sit half a game back in the NL East with one of the better records in the National League.
It will be interesting to see how the A's progress over the next year or two.

Aye the Mets are fine, just a wee joke.

The A's are really really painful to watch. Especially now that Sonny Gray is pitching poorly.

They get close and blow it. Everton really.

You monsters beat us in 1973 and then popcorn us 40+ years later

I bought a Mets shirt off eBay. The boss black one.

No idea why. Never gonna wear it.

Step right up and meet the Mets, Julio Urias!

BA's number 4 prospect behind Seager, Buxton and Moncada.

This is all very exciting. First teenage starter since King Felix.

Plus, everything is coming up roses for Seattle so far and I'm rooting for @SerenityNigh 's Rangers to help us out tonight against the Bucs.

Could be worse though, Houston could start playing to the form they showed last year.

Looking forward to see what Philly really is about when they come into Wrigley tomorrow. Those young pitchers are getting it done.

Great 9 - 8 pitcher's duel yesterday in St. Louis. Arrieta now 9 - 0, a win is a win.

How are my A's and Brewers doing?

 

[ilikecheese]

My Mariners being in 1st place this late is amazing. Best record this far into a season since 2003...it's been quite a dry spell.

Still not believing it's real yet.

Enjoy it while it lasts, but let's see where we are at the All-Star break.

(Same with Rangers; neither of these teams is the Cubs)

The Brewers are so mediocre it hurts.

They're not even good at tanking.

Mediocrity has reached a whole new level when you're bad at being bad.

 

[Connor]

Chase Utley has popcorned the Amazins to even bigger levels than we've witnessed on here.

An honorary GOT member.

 

[barneygumble]

Yepp.

Said it before and said it again.

Jeurys Familia is a farce.

Plays well, but as soon as he takes a hit (I'm recalling post ASG, and WS last season) he completely crumbled.

Last night was no exception.

Don't care if he's topping the charts for saves, but he's someone the mets should be looking to replace (behind others).

They're so bad they took two of three from the Cubs already. Some tank job...

Now take the Reds - THAT'S a proper tank job. The Barves? (not a typo) dive, dive, dive!!!

Here's a list of lowest ERA numbers for starters in MLB - who's going to go get Pomeranz and Rich Hill (RICH HILL?? - what, are you on dope?) by the deadline, btw? Chatwood has not been a fluke either - he handcuffed us when we saw the Rockies.

No complaints at the corner of Clark and Addison. Kudos to Theo's Spare Soul for the good work here.

Still pinching myself - on a five game win streak with the Dodgers coming to Wrigley for a four game set. Late afternoon 1st pitch is at 4:05 CDT.

Kershaw is just ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous.
