    Re: 2017 MLB Season - The Goat Memorial Thread

    I think 75% of this BOS/NYY telecast has been about Judge and his HR Derby performance and his rise to baseball's best player. Can we pump the brakes a little, or maybe admit the HR Derby may have messed with him a little? Since then, including the ASG, he's 1-17 with six K's.

    Of course, now he'll probably hit two bombs tonight.

      Quintana with a 12 strikeout performance in 7 inning shutout ball for his debut with the Cubs today. The Cubs destroyed the O's in their sweep in Baltimore. Bring on the Braves.

        It turns out that I now have a ticket to the Tuesday night Yankees @ Twins game, first row, along the first base line. I don't know the section. It also looks like a rainy day, thunderstorms showing on my weather app.

          It would suck if you couldn't see Colon pitch.

            Could he be any worse than all but two of the other Twins' pitchers?

              His ERA was over 8. So statistically, yes.

                Some of the pitchers the Twins pick up are so laughable. Colon just adds to that list.

                  Can't be worse than Baltimore's starting rotation. I'm going to call up their GM Wondernerd Duquette and ask for a tryout. I'm about Colon's age but weight a bit less...

                      We had to do reports on a high school English class for a book/movie combination, and talk about the two. I chose The Natural, and so did someone else in my class. He gave his report, and didn't mention that the book had a completely different ending than the movie (probably because he didn't bother to read it). The teacher asked me what I thought about the book and the movie, and I told him... pretty sure that guy ended up with an F.

                        Yankees send their #3 prospect, possibly the worst reliever in the MLB, and a couple other pieces to the White Sox for Frazier, Robertson and Kahnle.

                          Safeco field is widely considered to be a pitchers park. Aaron Judge almost hit a ball out of it. Statcast couldn't calculate it, the ball went "too high".

                              Twins acquire Jaime Garcia from Braves in 3-player deal
                              Simon Sharkey-GotliebJul 24 2017, 4:21 PM

                              After several days of negotiations that nearly saw the entire transaction fall apart, the Minnesota Twins finally completed a deal with the Atlanta Braves to acquire left-hander Jaime Garcia, along with catcher Anthony Recker and cash considerations, in exchange for minor-league pitcher Huascar Ynoa.

                                That seems awfully tilted in the Twins favor until I recall that in a roundabout way, Bartolo Colon is also part of this deal.
