I think that’s still considered a quality start in Colorado 

They are doing that runner starting on second base in extras?   That was my least favorite change.  Think it’s a terrible idea.  Way to go MLB continuing to try to ruin the game.  

Fearless prediction:
 
Pujols will have a Renaissance season and claim 1b/DH full time.  He’ll he hitting .320 with .950 ops by early June........
 
 
 
then he’ll get popped for peds. 

If he had a blister coming in, why would you pitch him?   We all know that blisters are bad for pitchers.  Why not rest him, let the blister heal?

If this is true he should have opted out of the whole season for her health if that is the reason he is using.  There was probably much more risk early season before anyone knew how it was going to work.  He didn’t. I’m hoping the angels miraculously make the playoffs and a World Series run while he is sitting at home.  Or, have him try to opt back in if they make the playoffs.  2-0 since he quit.......
 
( yes I know the winning really has nothing to do with quitting)

I’m going to assume this is a joke.  I know cardinals fans, they want nothing to do with Pujols until he is done.  He is the biggest dodged bullet for them in the past 10 years. Imagine his production there without the dh. 

One hr closer to a reasonable discussion about retirement and buyout.  If he does not pass mays this year there is no way he would ever consider walking away this off season.  I’ve been saying not to play him at all, give the at bats to the young future but he needs that last hr this year.  

Man, I’d walk Upton. Set up the double play.
 
orrrrjust strike him out.   

Adell still needs lots of work.  That last at bat there were no strikes thrown in 7 pitches.  Swung at 4 pitches out of the zone.  

I’m not sure how much in reality of teams revenue comes from the tickets and in stadium sales but from a payroll standpoint for the next couple of years there is the question of when the stadiums will return to normal capacity.  Even when they do will people still be afraid to go.  This may affect teams revenue streams and ability to spend (though it shouldn’t for a bunch of multi billionaires)

No. 
 
that should about end the discussion.

I hate the extra inning rule.  I have issues where a pitcher who gives up a ground out and fly ball can lose the game.  Perhaps the runner starting in first so that the team at least needs to get a hit to score.  I would also be fine with ties after the 12th or something.  
 
Don’t like the 7 inning game. 
 
don’t like the playoff format.  Baseball is much more random than basketball for example.  If they moved forward on this for a regular season it would suck that a 100 win team has to play an 80 win team in best of three.  Minimizes the point of performing well in the regular season. If they wanted to expand this, then shorten the season to 120 games then have all 5-7 game series. 
 
guess I like traditional baseball. 

That would be pretty funny having football payers have to play different positions each week.  Love to see a nose tackle out running a pass pattern. 

See.  Always good to know the manager on the other sides a complete idiot.  Nice win. 

Lol. Each team says “ oh yeah, our relievers are worse than yours...”

If I was a hitting coach I would recommend benching anyone that swing at a first pitch on a 109 degree day.

Shouldn’t the elderly stay inside when it’s this hot.  Hopefully Pujols stayed home for his protection.
