Mike Trout????  Never heard of him.  Is he on the Bachelor?

They aren't right. This is baseball. Not the NBA.
Uneducated, smelly, unbathed casual baseball fans who get their news from ESPN and InfoWars will always say this shit. That's why I stay far away from Yahoo sports or ESPN. 
The fact is, like I said baseball is not the NBA, where one star player changes the entire fate of the team's season. Hell even the NFL is like this with QB's. Sweaty Plebs from the ESPN forums or Twitter won't ever realize that baseball is entirely different. There are 25 players on a roster. One player will ultimately have very little impact.
Let us count all the worthless players in MLB history who have won several WS Rings and then imply that they are better than Trout because we have brain issues. You know who never played in a World Series? Ernie Banks. You know who never won a World Series? Griffey and Bonds and Gwynn  and Cobb and Ted Williams. What unbelievable pieces of shit those guys are.
It's a tired narrative that butthurt fans who don't have Trout on their team hold onto because they can't legitimately criticize him without sounding like Corky took a bunch of pills. 
Honestly, who cares? People who wear deodorant and actually know shit about baseball are aware it's a dumb, pointless argument. Let the uneducated neckbeards think what they want. Trout is the best. Period.

No, fishing channel.

I know this isn’t a “World Cup” thread but Megan Rapinoe can kiss my ass.
Yes she had 2 goals, but her refusal to put her hand over her heart and respect our National Anthem while playing for the US National team is BS.
i bring this up because The beautiful Alex Curry just interviewed her.

Good Lord.  They just repaired the stucco on the Modelo beer stand in Left Field from his last outing against Minnesota.  
 

I’ll start bringing a glove to the games after the All Star break

Even more painful is that I spelled Ouch as Ouxh.

Great win.  Good spot to win the series.  *fingers crossed*

Light it up.

congrats

No but seriously.  Daniel Vogelbach deserves to be an All Star over Shohei.  Really.....
what a crock of Sh@t that argument was

Watching Verlander reminds me of what a true ace looks like, what defines and separates an ace from everyone else. It is not only top-notch stuff, but the confidence to use it and get ahead in the count. If you watch a player like Verlander, he's always 0-1, 0-2, 1-2, etc. 
This is also one of the reasons Garret Richards--who had ace-caliber stuff--never became an ace. He didn't have this mentality, this confidence, this ability to get ahead in the count on a regular basis.

Imagine if he looked like this:

great effort by the pitching staff tonight.  Barria pitched well and the bullpen threw 4 scoreless with 8 strikeouts.  Impressive stuff.
congrats to Thaiss for his first big league hit also

Again.  Hey American League....Shohei Ohtani can hit the ball to left field.
keep shifting on him.  It’s OK
