How to draft my suicide note? I can’t deal with this royals team. I even had hope this year.

>>154310841I turned it off because I'm a real fan.
>>154309427he's too lanky. lot of moving parts. in the offseason they've worked on his transition into throws and it's been wildly successful so far. There's a reason manlets are really good at baseball and lanklets are really good at golf. It's a rarely used term called "RADIUS" and "CENTRIPETAL FORCE".
Don't hold your breath..

>>154311073I also noooticed those things
>>154311082they have a lot less to look forward to
blue jays are so cucked lmao
This is probably the dumbest idea, but with pitchers being so limited by pitch count these days, could you have a guy on your roster whose job it is to just foul off as many pitches as possible, to get pitchers to waste their arms?
>>154311060He’s a good player that looks different. That’s it
better luck next time Msbros

Expand one single international team to Japan and sell the Mariners to them so I can enjoy a win in every once in a while.
>>154311194Just watch the Rockies, they're like right there.
>>154311184it's deflating when all the games have finished for the day :(
How to quit porn?
>>154311216sometimes I wish I lived on the east coast so there could be baybaw after midnight 5-6 times a week

>>154311326I do appreciate that you're coming out and admitting that you are an utter evil scum subhuman. no need to even pretend anymore.guess the big guy was right all along and you needed to be dealt with. threat to the human race, and for what? all for purely evil reasons. deranged people
>>154311370No I'm already depressed I can at least feel good just being at a game, I care a lot less about losing when I'm at the game, I'm just having a good time with whoever I'm with
>>154311347Are you also going to buy one of these to eat?>>154311176
>>154311401Where do you think they're coming from?

KILL DAN WILSONKILL DAN WILSON
Fuck me hard Timmy
Why did they do it?
>big doomper OPS is .511holy kekaroni
>>154311441I am so legitimately done with Dan Wilson. This platoon system has NEVER worked and he should've put a stop to it a long time ago but he's just rolling with it because he's a jaded old fuck resting on his stupid laurels
>>154311370>they know they get next year off too.What as in just not caring?
>>154311002They need to sweep the sawx. I'm already worried and it's not even May.
>>154311365You must be blind. The Royals almost always have their season over by May.>>154311391
>>154311467that or the lockout, not that it would fucking matter to these bums
>>154311397Gonna cry? How about you put a bullet in your head instead?
>>154311459So, I want to talk about Cal Raleigh a minute. Cal Raleigh got a ton of hype last year. What did he hit?55 bombs? Something like that. Almost 60 as catcher.Again, you were just watching. They could make any of these guys whatever they want. What do they call him?Big dumper. So, he was a guy that could market and get some eyes on the game. And he was fun.but like you have to realize with that it's not like it's not lack of ability. The guy didn't forget how to hit a fucking baseball and it's not like he was all juiced up on steroids like Brady Anderson was when Brady Anderson hit 50 homers and then went back down to like 20 something the next year. You know, it just was baseball creating a character.They were creating a star and now they've pulled the rug. You guys can talk all about, oh he's in his rat year or his snake year. No, no, It's none of that shit.And he didn't forget how to hit a fucking baseball for power. It's just a simple rug pull. I mean, people probably bet Cal Raleigh for, you know, elevators, 30 homers, 40 homers, maybe even 50 again.He's not even going to sniff 30. So he'll kill all those bets in the meantime. And, you know, he served his purpose for the bread and circus because essentially last year he got a ton of eyes on the game. You know, he was a huge part of Seattle's run.It's more than just a slump or a down year. I mean, the character, they made the star already with the manufactured Masonic Theater as he strikes out again. Cal Raleigh is fucking done.Stick a fork in him. His purpose has been served. That's the message.That's the take-home message here. He's done. He's lost it.So whatever little magic tricks they do get guys to be stars, they're using that same magic now to take it away from him. He will never do anything close to what he did last year again.
>>154311463the platoons are shitty but that's not even the problem with Dan, it's that he seems to have one single trigger for when to pull a pitcher and it's AFTER he's given up the leadWHY THE FUCK DO YOU PUT IN BRASH AND LEGUMINA IN A TIE GAME JUST TO LET FAGGOTMINA BLOW IT IN THE 8TH!!!??????
>>154311502Now that’s an RC post if I’ve ever seen one
>>154311524I don't fucking understand why he pulled Brash after one inning. I don't FUCKING GET IT
>>154311502crisp RC
The Mets gotta win a game tomorrow… they just gotta!!
>>154311543He worked two days in a row :^)
>>154311557
>>154311557I think they should losefor entertainment purposes
I wish /we/ had it as good as the Mets.
My doggie doos
>>154311581Season's over if the Mehs beat us in June.
>>154311557Need them to lose for my gambling to pan out.
>>154311581No you don’t man, it was better losing under the cheap ass wilpons than losing with a 385 gorillion dollar payroll
>>154311606Season's over period.
Give the metiners a chance
Just one chance is all we ask
>>154311557>vs twinsDubious
scuba klenk
>>154311632They're both better than whatever is going on in Seattle.
I gave the Cubs a chance and they beat the Phillies…
>>154311639>>154311651Hang on let me check with gpt
>>154311685What's going on in Seattle is terrible management and burning the candles out in the first three innings. Lineups have been weird, too frontloaded, and our pitching staff started the year strong as fuck but are starting to waver just as our hitting is finally starting to kick in.
>>154311458LMAO
>>154311710No, it's just ass all around with the random lucky hits that make you, mistakenly, think there's something more to the club. There isn't. It's just garbage.
Sources say the Mets are monitoring Judge and Ohtani ahead of the 2026 trade deadline.
>tfw we can only be 'itsApril'-maxxing for another 9 days
>>154311796no but Steven May
Mets will win tomorrow with McLean then it’s just one game at a time. They’ll probably go on a torrid stretch when Soto returns
I'm thinking the Jays go undefeated for the rest of the season.
>>154311796every month is the same
>>154311658They should win today. The Twins are putting in a spot starter against the Mets best pitcher. So they have that to look forward to. Unless they just can’t hit him for whatever reason.
>>154311805klenk
>>154311809 is more likely than >>154311807
>>154311807>>154311815I don't doubt Nolan, it's the completely dead bats that worry me the most
>>154311830I mean if you can’t hit a spot starter you should probably be relegated to the sandlot or anywhere far away from a a major league field.
why did they do that to themselves?
>>154311815>Unless they just can’t hit him for whatever reason.kek ugh…
I hate seeing Mariners fans be so hopeless. They deserve to succeed.
The greatest moment in Mariners history. It's all downhill from here
>>154311927We deserve to die.
>>154311927they already have a superbowl
>>154311927You weren't saying that shit in game 7 of last year. Your empty platitudes are insulting.
>>154311933The double mogs, in fact the whole franchise has coasted off it for 31 years.
>>154311927>>154311945this, their terrible heartbreak was immediately relieved by seeing the jays choke and then the hawks win
>>154311947I'm s-sorry. Forgive me for shitposting about how it would be impossible for you guys to blow that lead. I felt sick for you guys after hearing that fellows cry in the clubhouse.
I never think about the Mariners let alone watch them
>>154311176Is it $50?
>>154312023youre better off for both
>>154312023How can I reach this nirvana, or baseball enlightenment as many would say?

>>154312532Winky sold his soul to Satan
>>154312535well so far they're 6-0 in one run games that helps. It's funny, I think they're actually going to improve as a team, hit better and pitch better but their record will get worse

>>154312632He's obviously not fat. He's very muscular. He looks kind of big to me. His face is a bit chubby but his body frame is very athletic so it rounds out. I'm not trying to sound gay. That's just how I objectively view it
>>154312638You guys are too insecure. There's nothing gay about admitting that another guy has a good physique. Doesn't mean you want to fuck them. Just means you're not delusional.
>>154312632I wish they would put an In n Out at the stadium, I could get anything other than shake shack and japslop in 90 seconds
>>154312632He obviously is fat. He's not very muscular. He looks kind of big to me. His face is really chubby and his body frame is not very athletic so it rounds him out. I am trying to sound gay. That's how I objectively view it
>>154312535Unironically it seems to be guts. They're actually not giving up and doing what they can do to win. Honestly I hope Reds when it all while having the worst stats just to prove a point about Baseball.
>>154312581 Luzardo will be fine desu you’re gonna feel dumb in a couple months
Giolito is worth a one year flyer for teams in need of a starting pitcher due to injuries. Can never have too many lefties
>>154312705the reds have one good month and you’re saying they’re gonna rewrite the book of baseball to disprove the statfag boogeyman in your head. Will you get a grip man
>>154312705when it all what?
How long does a manager in baseball typically last when the fans turn on them?
>>154312781I don't think fan sentiment ever matters in baseball desu, not that I've seen
And good morning, Mariners nation.
>>154312790Actually you're right. To think it matters much in any sport is naive thinking on my part.
>>154312794I feel like most of the time fans quit on the manager when the results are inexcusably bad so it might look that way sometimes
>>154312612jackson browne's recording of These Days was better Desu.
>>154312781he's been going strong for over 2 seasons after the fans turned
>>154312794what about english football? you guys go through managers constantly
>>154312846Kek, oh dear. I'm used to sports with much shorter seasons, so typically managers get less time to turn things around. Managers who perform poorly will get the sack, which often times isn't the silver bullet fans hope it'd be, but it at least mixes things up and provides them with the hope of better results. The idea that baseball fans are subjected to fucking awful management for years on end before something changes is both hilarious and excruciating at the same time. What a sport.
>>154312883we also have white sox and angels fans praying for their team owners to die for decades
>>154312865While that is true, fans and club boards want to win for two very different reasons. They're not making decisions to please the fans.
>>154312893Similar things happen here. Fan sentiment goes bitter, and once a divegrass club starts to rifle through managers with zero improvement in sight, they'll then turn on the board quickly. Manchester United and Sheffield Wednesday being the most recent examples I can recall, and before that Leeds have called for the same a couple times in recent memory too.
the financial pressure of being relegated is beautiful but it won't ever happen here sadlyjust wait for the new boss same as the old boss
>>154312846This is just Aaron Boone in a philthies cap and jersey and you will never convince me it isn’t.

>>154313330The "dignity" is more to the pinstripes themselves than this particular iteration of the team. It will always feel like a mark of pride to dab on the Jankees, whereas beating the Mets just feels like you're punching down.

>>154314189Most likely, reputable middle schools, high schools, and universities only hire native English speakers (Americans, British, or Australians).Conversely, private English language schools probably don't care about the instructor's country of origin.For example, schools like the one below:https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/list/

>>154314197I just learned this myself."English cursive writing is no longer a mandatory subject in Japanese junior high schools since the 2002 curriculum revision, and is now rarely taught in schools. While it may not be covered at all in classes, or it may be offered as an elective, block letters remain the dominant form. However, some students may choose to learn cursive independently for purposes such as handwritten signatures or as a general literacy skill."

either ohtani is the greatest baseball player of all time and its not even close or baseball is a fraudelent sport that arbitrarily restricts its best athletes to the detriment of the game.
https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7214140/2026/04/20/dodgers-cubs-shohei-ohtani-craig-counsell/I'm glad someone in MLB is calling out how bullshit it is that the league carved out an exception explicitly for 'Tani
>>154314286Is it true that nihong hates foreigners and would ban non-natives from certain local stores, pubs, etc.?
>Cecconi start>Schneeman day offAfter seeing what they did to Cecconi in the first inning, we wisely told him to just mop up his own game. Let's try to beat them with our decent starters.
>>154314387the bullshit is every organized league above high school refusing to let anyone play both ways. dont even need to be great at it. common sense dictates that a replacement level 2 way player is more valuable on a 25 man roster than a slightly above average one way player. yet every team has at least 10 average 1 one players and only 1 team has a 2 way player. its retarded.
>>154314387>"The thing is, it certainly benefits us because we have the player. We're more than willing for other teams to go out and find a player who can do both. He's an exception because he's an exceptional player. It is what it is."TL;DR/ Skill issue lmao hire your own two-way player
ohtani lied and people died
>>154314394Such shops do exist, but I think they are very few in number.I have never seen such a shop in my area (where there are hardly any foreign tourists).
>>154314420I see. Another question, is true that if you eat while walking on the streets, you'll get weird looks?
>>154314394>hates foreignersIt's a mixed bag, some hate all foreigners no matter what, some like their money but still think they're subhuman, and some will delineate between like nigs, jeets, whitey, chinks etc.
and they need to start kicking the hecklers out in Cleveland
>>154314403A ton of players at the college level play 2-way. Even Skenes did it.>common sense dictates that a replacement level 2 way player is more valuable on a 25 man roster than a slightly above average one way player. yet every team has at least 10 average 1 one players and only 1 team has a 2 way player. its retarded.A replacement level player isn't MLB quality. So no, common sense does not dictate that. Then, it's really hard to actually really hard to be a genuine major league player at both sides. And that fact is what makes Ohtani who he is. Even if he only hit 20 HR's a year and pitched to a 3.5 ERA. Most hitters don't crack 20 dingers a season, and 3.5 ERA makes you a starter that doesn't have to move to the bullpen when the playoffs start. The majority of guys have trouble cracking those stats while focusing on one side full time, and somehow you think guys who can crack those numbers working on both sides part time grow on trees.The exceptionally athletic can get away with two-waying in HS because most pitchers don't throw hard, nor do they throw good breaking balls, and on the mound, if you can touch 90+, you're a really HS pitcher. In college, 2-waying is more rare, but you can still get away with it, but pro ball is generally where it gets cut because guys who 2-way are generally way better at one side, and their best chance of making it pro is just focusing on what they already have an advanced skillset on after the fact.
>>154314429That's absolutely not true.Of course, you should avoid doing that in very crowded places.
>>154314403I think you're underestimating how difficut it is to be even a marginal 2-way player in today's velo/spin era, and that's assuming the bat is good enough to offset a DH because it's even futher doubtful someone is going to be good enough to hit, pitch, and play defense at a valuable position. I agree with you though that teams shouldn't be so quick to convert their two-way draftees. I'd give them at least 2 years if they were a high schooler or younger.
>>154314434Because my impression was that while there are racists in every ethnicity, most japanese just don't like it when foreigners try to enforce their own norms and cultures and disrupt the harmony there, but the internet made it sound like they're eugenics or something lmao>>154314470Thank you for answering!

>>154314539>No socks
>>154314466the problem with that is there arent 25 genuine mlb players on every roster as it stands now. its silly to suggest that you must be great on both sides to justify it. if you can throw 50 innings at 4.50era in relief and bat .230 with 10 HR youre filling 2 jobs with one guy and opening a roster spot for a specialist. i refuse to believe that there arent hundreds of guys who could do a servicable job on both sides if given the chance. baseball isnt that hard. ohtani isnt that special.

My roosters are laying eggs
>>154314758That’s quite a cock you got there
>>154314758this is everything, and im here for it
>>154314716so true
>>154314716Yes, I have five chickens. You need some land or space for them to roam around. The hardest part is at first, making sure the chicks are warm enough. After that, they grow up quickly. I started my chickens when I they were young and let them run free in the backyard. They eat and drink a lot, so you need to have enough food and water for them.I also have black Australorp chickens, which are a larger type. The size of the chickens depends on the breed you choose. Smaller chickens need less food and space. If this is your first time, I would recommend getting a hearty and docile breed. Larger chickens can handle the cold better during winter because they are bigger.Overall, chickens are pretty easy to take care of. I go out to collect their eggs and you can bond with them if you want. I spent a lot of time with my chickens when they were young, giving them treats and such.
>>154314802>you can bond with them if you want
>>154314802can you taste the difference between you're different hens?
>>154314758I’m running a brood bitch lesbian society simulation because roosters are too loud and gay.
>>154314586all-time tie breaker 'eries this week
>>154314828They all eat the same feed and bugs so no, but they do taste richer and better than grocery store eggs.
>>154314802I've heard they get rid of mice too, which would be ideal for me I live in a pretty rural woodsy area and mice are always trying to invade everything from my house to my tractor engine
>>154314844Shot Heard Round The World ought to count triple
>>154314836Make em into capons. They get bigger and you can actually eat them since they aren't your egg layers.https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/how-to-caponize-a-rooster-warning-graphic-pics.210041/
>>154314851I think they could scare the mice, but their food could also attract rodents. I have a strong fence around my property and dogs, so I don’t usually see mice. However, rabbits sneak in and leave their droppings, which look like raisinet candies. Also, crows and turkey vultures like to come when I fill the chicken feed, but they’re so shy that I haven’t noticed if they actually come down into my backyard.
>>154314849This. Don't ever buy eggs from the grocery store or else you'll turn into a Mets fan
>>154314868I considered caponizing one, I just didn’t trust myself to perform surgery on him, it seemed risky and painful. There also weren’t any places around me that wanted to do it so I ended up giving him away.
>>154314758You got a trans chicken
>>154314881What you can do is take one of your roosters you were going to kill, kill him, and then practice on that. It's really not that difficult. If you've ever castrated a shoat it's basically the same thing, but small, much more quiet, and less of a struggle.

>>154315187I didn't know Dumbrowski pulled Wheeler in the world series and put in Alvarado to get blasted by Alvarez even though Alvarez already crushed him a game earlier. I didn't know Harper was the one that made him keep putting in Kimbrel to blow leads in the NLCS against Arizona. I must have forgot how it was the players that kept the squeeze play on against the Dodgers even after the Dodgers showed they were running a play to stop it. I guess Kerkering kept putting himself in dirty innings with inherited runners even though he had some of the worst numbers in the pen in those situations. Weird. The more you know, I guess.

>>154315373I'd tell you you're an idiot if you think that's what he's doing and I'd call you a cocksucker for simping for a career bench coach that hasn't won a fucking thing. I guess everybody needs accountability except for Rob Thomson. What the fuck has he done to earn this level of dick sucking. There's been guys that have won multiple world series that have had shorter leashes and less excuses given for them than this man. Why do you think this man is peerless and beyond reproach?
>>154315739>Why do you think this man is peerless and beyond reproachI dont, modern managers are cheerleaders for the clubhouse and lightning rods for public disapproval, and this is for ALL TEAMS not just the phillies. Blaming a manager past the 2010s is a foolish endeavor because they don't effect wins and losses like managers of old.
