Spring training is underway so it's time to talk baseball again. Talk about trades, games, how much you hate baseball, or really anything. Like usual the cardinals are going to win it all this year.

That game was absolutely nuts. I hope everything works out with Molina. I have a lot of respect for that man and his catching abilities.

Great.. now the Giants are going to beat a KC Royals team that crapshot their way into the world series by playing over their head and winning 1 run ball games, and Ill have to deal with this tired ass bullshit again - THIS time while actually living in California.

Fuck you baseball, you trolling ass jerkbag.

The Giants just need Bumgarner to pitch every game and they'll be golden.

I don't know why they keep putting Strickland in. The 2-run homer he let up was a meatball right down the middle

^don't speak too soon.... The series isn't over and neither are the Giants. Mike Morse should be in the lineup tomorrow (i hope) and that could be huge.

Didn't Morse completely fall off the wagon offensively? And doesn't he absolutely blow at defense?

I don't know if I'd call that a good thing against a speedy smallball team.

Morse has been hitting off the bench in clutch spots. Sure his defense isn't great but it's not much worse than Ishikawa's. Perez gets the start in left tonight but he's almost a waste of an at bat.

I mean, a pinch hitter isn't exactly what I'd put my faith in... by that point in the game you're playing against one of the best bullpens in baseball. I wouldn't put much stock in a guy like morse to really have a serious effect on the game, but I guess you never know.

Yeah, I understand where you are coming from. But whatever they did tonight worked. Madbum on the bump tomorrow I'm liking it.

He has been an absolute monster in the postseason. His 6 starts and postseason's stats are pretty damn similar to Curt Schilling's in 2001. And he is only being paid $500,600 a year. Giants are getting a absolute steal of a deal with him.

And we're back! Thanks for bringing this back from the dead. As you said, lots to discuss yet.

First on the M's chopping block was Justin Smoak...about fucking time, thanks and good luck Jays!

Both teams were great. Giants were just on fire throughout the postseason, with Panda Express getting more hits than anyone else in postseason history and Maddy just being a stud. I mean look at the guy. You're not touching him.

Yeah because David Ortiz's 6'4" 230 lbs frame is the definition of un-athletic. At least try not to sound like a complete moron if you're trying to make fun of something.

And getting a hit in baseball is the hardest thing to do in sports.

lol papi could break you over his knee, the dude is fucking huge and probably can run 90 ft faster than you can. Plus it takes insane talent to do what he does every season and especially the batting average he put up last post season.



ik you're just a shitty troll and i shouldn't have bit..but #bostonstrong

This post season was intense. One of the best in my lifetime. So many walk-offs, close games, and pitching gems.

Bum is not human. 3-0 in the world series, 75 percent of the giants wins in the series were because of him. Beastmode.
