Acknowledging the greatness of Mike Trout can be tiresome, but we really gotta not forgot

I'll tell ya this much...I'm pretty sure I'll be watching my favorite baseball team play meaningful games in September for the first time in 6 years. By no means am I putting them ahead of the Nationals just yet, but these guys could win a Wild Card.

It's enjoyable after so many years of shit, I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts

i know i sound bitter (am i am because my team is now a glorified double A team) but don't the mets have a few weeks like this year in year out? they're playing good ball, but it also speaks to how bad the NL East currently is. the nats should destroy but they don't seem to have any chemistry, at least, not the way teams like the a's or royals do.

marlins won't really be contenders until jose fernandez comes back and is as dominate as he once was, so that might not be this year. but guys, we're talking about the mets. can their vets hold up? don't tell me duda and murphy are going to take them to the promise land.

If they win, its not gonna be because Murphy and Duda. It's gonna be because of the pitching staff. The hope is that Harvey/DeGrom/Syndergaard/Colon stay healthy and pitch well enough to keep them in games, and they are able to sneak by with enough offense to win. That said, I dont think they are long term contenders, but I wouldn't be shocked to see them compete for a wildcard spot

The Royals need to chill the fuck out. I know they are trying to manage what it feels like to be successful but they are acting like some little bitches. The rules are you retaliate once and then move on. They keep bringing animosity to every game and it's getting ridiculous.

Hey, by the way who's Curt?

OT, but John Angelos of the Orioles said this about the protests:

"That said, my greater source of personal concern, outrage and sympathy beyond this particular case is focused neither upon one night’s property damage nor upon the acts, but is focused rather upon the past four-decade period during which an American political elite have shipped middle class and working class jobs away from Baltimore and cities and towns around the U.S. to third-world dictatorships like China and others, plunged tens of millions of good, hard-working Americans into economic devastation, and then followed that action around the nation by diminishing every American’s civil rights protections in order to control an unfairly impoverished population living under an ever-declining standard of living and suffering at the butt end of an ever-more militarized and aggressive surveillance state.

The innocent working families of all backgrounds whose lives and dreams have been cut short by excessive violence, surveillance, and other abuses of the Bill of Rights by government pay the true price, and ultimate price, and one that far exceeds the importances of any kids’ game played tonight, or ever, at Camden Yards. We need to keep in mind people are suffering and dying around the U.S., and while we are thankful no one was injured at Camden Yards, there is a far bigger picture for poor Americans in Baltimore and everywhere who don’t have jobs and are losing economic civil and legal rights, and this makes inconvenience at a ballgame irrelevant in light of the needless suffering government is inflicting upon ordinary Americans."

Does anyone know if they are going to televise the O's-White Sox game today? Would be great to hear a game without any crowd noise.

Yeah sorry was a dumb question for here, I meant whether it was going to air on MASN, the O's/Nats network, shit is blacked out for me on MLBtv.
Want to know how well you could here all the players talking to each other and whatnot.

Refuse to believe the old record wasn't a Marlins game.

They're doing things. If they make some good signings and the position players keep developing no reason they can't challenge for the division next year
