J.D. Martinez could write a novel in the time he takes between each pitch.

What's up with the Twins sending Miguel Sano to Single-A? That's a thing teams do? You hear about Triple-A all the time, but that makes some sense. I guess he's getting #SanoRespect

I think Randal Grichuk got the same treatment last year.

So, how low does Chris Davis' WAR get before he gets DFAed? He won't get to -4, will he?

...

I so hope he does.

I think Winston is a high compliment. He's probably the most intelligent and levelheaded character in the game.

The only negative is that he could use more self confidence

Okay this plays perfectly

At least you can drown it all in a haze of marijuana smoke

I mean, yeah, but that would require me to start smoking weed again.

Actually, edibles would be preferable. I just hate the feeling of smoking anything.

I remember when the results were coming in and it looked good for Trump I tried to watch The Crown on Netflix (still only watched one half of one episode to this day) and had to stop because I got diarrhea from the stress of a braindead Nazi becoming the president

Your Nazi is going to love our anti-semitic drug dealer!

The way GS built their team is awesome, but I'm with SpeeD, adding KD immediately makes any team better, and fits perfectly with how the Warriors stretch the floor.

He threw an immaculate inning today, as well (which may have influenced your post). He seems to have somehow taken it up a notch from last year too, which in itself is remarkable.

Guess Scherzer is a clutch hitter now. Comes on as a pinch hitter in the top of the 14th, gets a single, and is the winning run for the Nationals.

Every team in the NL West sucks so I wonder who will come out on top.

The Giants will be interesting when Cueto and Madbum come back. They've had a lot of pleasant surprises with Gorkys Hernandez, Mac Williamson and Alen Hanson hitting quite well.

Speaking of the Rockies, gonna toss a coin to see if I'm gonna gamble with Jon Gray in fantasy.

Speaking of shortstops, for some reason Russell Martin was playing there today. He didn't do badly? Like, he did a lot better than he should have.

Yeah, but Devers is younger and cost-controlled.

Anyways, it's obviously gonna be the Dodgers. I don't know why I didn't go there immediately.

Guess Machado is gonna play 2B in that case. Can't see them jumping ship on Devers already.

Oh and I bought NHL 18 on a whim because I want to play a hockey game. Have I made a terrible mistake?

Nope. It's fine, and you get to make your own expansion team.

I haven't played it, but if it's anything like 16 or 17, it'll be fun.

Babe Ruth would strike out 250 times this season and Walter Johnson would have a 6.66 ERA

Low key, I still think Babe Ruth would have been a good hitter. Maybe not a record breaker, but a lot of his talent came from the fact that he approached pitching differently than anybody around him. I give him the benefit of the doubt that he would be able to put up 30+ HR seasons.

What was it about the NHL that allowed video same numbers by Gretzky that couldn't be put up today? How'd the game change?

Better athletes, better equipment, better defense, strategies that emphasize restricting movement and cross ice passes.

Most hockey players in the 70s and 80s had a diet of beer and cigarettes.
---

https://imgur.com/yPyOj0i

Gretzky's records are untouchable because that video game NHL doesn't exist anymore. I think Lemieux was close--his point per game pace was within 0.1 of Gretzky, if I recall correctly--but health really messed him up.

Anyways, Lebron is the NBA GOAT. Fight me.

They've been pretty consistent with giving him playing time, so I was somewhat confident. Plus, if they were gonna give him a day off, I was going to guess they would sit him Tuesday, two days after his start.

Trout was fun to watch on the basepaths as well, even if he only got one steal late. I was also wondering how he weighed in at 235 before today, but holy hell, his legs are tree trunks.

Good news: I got to watch Ohtani hit a two-run single to tie the game. Also a ridiculous diving catch from Andrelton Simmons.
Bad news: The Blue Jays lost.

The Brewers bullpen is ridiculous right now, especially with Knebel back. It hides the fact that they have no starter worth talking about.

I want both of them to finish above 11 WAR.

Mike Jesus Trout is already at 4 bWAR. We are not worthy.

I think he's been paired with Mickey Redmond on some games for the playoffs as well, which is a good call. Disclosure: he's the Red Wings colour commentator, so of course I'm gonna like him.

He's pretty enjoyable, but is cancelled out by Pierre MacGuire.

Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion would fall under that as well. As well as J.D. Martinez.

That would be a fun middle of the order.

We all know Bartolo would be picked in that draft.
---

https://imgur.com/yPyOj0i

I think that gives too much credit to Florida's GM. They traded away Jonathan Marchessault--a 30-goal scorer!--for the Knights to take Reilly Smith, whom they gave a $5 million contract to.

However, that definitely does hold water with guys like William Karlsson and Alex Tuch. I think there are a lot of explanations for it, and I don't think it can be repeated. Vegas took what they were given and made a really fun, competitive team out of it.
---

https://imgur.com/yPyOj0i

Oh, it's definitely cool! I think they'll be a playoff team for sure next year, too. I think what Vegas took advantage of was not a generous expansion draft, however. I think they took advantage of the fact that hockey GMs are dumb.
---

https://imgur.com/yPyOj0i

We only think the expansion draft is generous because they're in the finals. Everyone was saying that the Golden Knights were gonna be absolutely terrible at the start. This is just overreactionary, and it will all tide over when the Seattle expansion team loses 60 games.

On another note, the Tampa Rays are hilarious right now, using Sergio Romo as an "opening" pitcher. It's so weird, but why not try it at this point?
