MLB 2022 Season: It's Your Pitch, Jay Kirk

[PrincetonTiger]

Transaction update

 This week the Cubs DFA’d SS Sergio Alcantara and then traded him to Arizona 

[2006Coltsbestever]

Season starts for us April 7th, we play the pesky Brewers at Wrigley. Kyle gets the start. I am ready. This will be an interesting season after we cleaned house. I am off Thursday so I will watch it.

 

Seasons 2015-2020:

 

6 Playoff appearances = 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2020

 

3 Division Championships = 2016, 2017, 2020

 

1 NL Pennant = 2016

 

1 WS Championship = 2016

 

In 2021 = dismantled the team.

 

-I don't expect much so at least I have no stress anymore. I see us winning maybe 75 games, 75-87 around that area. I hope I am wrong.

Very happy with the “Donnie Baseball” documentary

I think my Reds will end up right behind you guys. Most likely in 4th place. Another lost season, but at least we're not the Pirates or Orioles, so... Yay?

That does not sound accurate but maybe it is. Who would have thunk it? They have had some good teams. I liked watching the Barry Larkin, Norm Charlton, Rob Dibble teams. Those were the days I liked baseball very much. You associated players with one team.

 

I don't like baseball today. We have the DH in the NL.   Max Scherzer is a Met? Smh. I don't like it.

It’s sad isn’t it? 1995 was the last time we won a playoff game…

The Reds won playoff games in the last decade (2012?) but they did not win a playoff series.

Damn I didn't know that but like you said you are not the Pirates lol. I think the Reds will finish ahead of the Cubs.

Correct. I believe the last time we won it was against the Giants. We were up 2 games to 0, and then epically collapsed losing 3 straight.

Opening Day Eve! The Cubs will open the season as the first game tomorrow at 2:20/1:20 at Wrigley

[Barry Sears]

It's Opening Day!  Good luck to all your teams...remember, every team is in 1st place right now   PLAY BALL!!!!!

[2006Coltsbestever]

The Professor baby!

[2006Coltsbestever]

Cubs baby!, take the lead 5-3. The 2016 World Champs take a 5-3 lead to the 8th! Get some Brewers 

[2006Coltsbestever]

5-4 Cubs to the bottom of the 8th. Struck his butt out!

[2006Coltsbestever]

1 away, I like this Robertson guy. He throws around 97.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Need a double play here. That was a lucky hit.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Yelich is a gonner, 2 down! 

[2006Coltsbestever]

- Cubs win, screw the Brewers.

Great franchise, we just do what we do baby!

[2006Coltsbestever]

we were all business today, Nico and Contreras were playing like it was the playoffs. 

[RollerColt]

I’m going to take any positive the Reds can give me. And going into Atlanta on opening night, and playing tough against the defending World Series champs on their home field is a hell of a positive and way to start the year. 
 

Our bullpen might not be able to seal the deal unfortunately. Up 6-3.

[NFLfan]

The Mets have the best record on Opening Day. Today they are up 5-1 in the bottom of the 7th against the Nationals. 

 

The Mets broadcasters were talking about Adam Wainwright's pitching performance today -- 6 scoreless inn. Congrats.

[NFLfan]

The Mets play tomorrow and the broadcast is on Apple TV.

 

 

What is Apple TV?

Looks like the Cubs, the Reds, the Cards and the Mets will win today. 

 

Fun day for us here.

Pressure is off, maybe the Cubs will do well. One day at a time. Brewers went down today.

Wow! We actually did it. We beat the Braves!

I heard that at least one former Mets player was instrumental in that victory.

[NFLfan]

Oh no, the Nats hit Pete Alonso in the shoulder and hit the helmet. This is the third hit-by-pitch tonight. The Mets do not retaliate. They will have to do so this year. The last few years, Mets players have been hit by pitches a lot but Mets pitchers don't do a thing about it. Buck Showalter won't allow that to continue.

I bet if the Mets put in Dwight Gooden for just an inning and he dinged someone, opposing teams would quit that stuff!  He could probably still throw 90. He was over 100 in his prime plenty of times.

 

Gooden delivers the pitch, and the result is
