Re: MLB 2022
Heart of hearts, I'll take Milwaukee against any of the contenders (as long as the Brewers win). But I'll take the Mets against the Yankstros. I could also back the Clevelands or the Inderjays.

Well they certainly wont be beating the Red Sox again this year.Flex wrote: ↑18 Aug 2022, 10:26amRight, I just think it's interesting that even with that "feature" it's been a slight pitcher's park.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑18 Aug 2022, 9:49amThat doesn't break down where the homers go. Left and centre are a depth where the adults play.

Im getting a.on board with the mets beating the Yankees in a WS.

Re: MLB 2022
Seeing Andrew Supernintendochalmers suck in a Yankee uniform is pleasing, but it's made me wonder who was the last former Red Sox player who has been a dud for the Yanks. Damon immediately comes to mind, but has there been anyone more recently? It always seemed like a firm rule that a former Yankee who ended up would be dead lousy, but maybe it goes the other way, too.

Tacoby Ellsbury was probably an all time lousy signing for the Yanks. Did they just finish paying him last year or something?Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑21 Aug 2022, 2:54pmSeeing Andrew Supernintendochalmers suck in a Yankee uniform is pleasing, but it's made me wonder who was the last former Red Sox player who has been a dud for the Yanks.

Addendum: not even last year, final payout to Taco was this year as part of a legal settlement: https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/yank ... er-report/

It's baffling how he fell off a cliff like that.

Damon had some decent production in NY. His arm still sucked but his hitting was pretty decent as I recall.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑21 Aug 2022, 2:54pmSeeing Andrew Supernintendochalmers suck in a Yankee uniform is pleasing, but it's made me wonder who was the last former Red Sox player who has been a dud for the Yanks.

And, because I shit on him earlier, Supernintendochalmers hits a go-ahead homer.

Re: MLB 2022
I was thinking about Brett Gardner again. The guy is a free agent. He sort of deserves a better ending to his career than being a balloon that simply floated off.

I read about that. As much as I'm sure he'd like to die on a ballfield, y'know, Bill, maybe you are too old for that stuff now.
