2016 MLB thread. THE CUBS HAVE BROKEN THE CURSE! Chicago Cubs are your 2016 World Series champions

Ian Kennedy is starting this year horribly. I thought with the much improved lineup that he would have a better statistical year than last year as he's still pitching in Petco, but nah...

Speaking of that Padres offense...Where they been? Kinda quiet of late, yeah?

No Big Willie, Kemp's been slumping, J Upton is killing it. That infield is trash though.

 

[finallyfamous]

He looks nasty tonight, but our lineup is below average and somehow the baseball gods allowed you to miss the best pitcher in baseball.

I'm going to sleep, #%#& this game

Haha you mean the dude who won the AL Cy Young last year?

Oh wait

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Wish Klubot didn't give up that bomb

The Barry Bonds Twitter just keeps giving and giving with randomness

 

[celticspride34]

Bonds has those Gretzky numbers... It's him... And everyone else...

I miss the steroid Era...

 

[mr marcus]

Bonds was born with a big *** head.



Ima fellow big head guy so I can throw that slander

 

[worldbeefreeg]

Bonds during that stretch was the most dominant athlete ever.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

in the 90s he was arguably the best hitter of the generation then he goes balco and becomes immortal. bunch of 11 WAR seasons from ages 37-40

His facial expression says it all.

@MLBPipeline: Michael Conforto promoted from @stluciemets to @bmets.
No. 5 on @Mets Top 30 Prospects list: http://t.co/MBriAoRG2p http://t.co/eHZzZeT2S4


Remember watching him a couple years ago when the Aggies played at Oregon State in a regional.

Speaking on projectability, he was just one of those guys you look at and say, that's what a big leaguer looks like

 

[johnnyredstorm]

we need him to dominate

 

[d3si]

Conforto

Conforto - Lagares - Nimmo

Can't wait

Of course Strasburg is hurt

You've been hurt you fool and you're too selfish to admit it to the trainers

Forreal. At this point, I'm done with this dude. Let him figure it out elsewhere...he's been in his feelings since being demoted to #3 in the rotation.

[mr marcus]

Reds announcers were talking about Strasburg during his hs/college days. Didn't know he had issues with passion for the sport and being a little *****
