The "hmm" was for visiting purposes

Havent been out there - sounds like fun on a sunny day...maybe score some autographs hah

Sandy D · #68 04-21-2014

Players dont give up autographs like they used to.

Too many out getting autographs to re sell and players grew tired of people making money off their signature.

Another cool thing ruined.

rsot · #69 04-21-2014

Even the resale value of autographs has gone bad due to the abusers -

Yankees caught cheating....

Who would have thought?

Brew Crew is off to a surprising start. Pirates are sinking like crazy.

Even though I am a Giants fan. The Dodgers are stacked. But my sleeper is the Padres to maybe get that 2nd wild card spot.

Bud Black is old School Roger Craig. By far best Manager in baseball in my opinion. Boachy kills me even with the 2 W.S. Never bunting and moving runners up. Always hoping for the big hit etc. He is great with the Bullpen. But when they Giants can't score at all, it is so frustrating watching double plays rather than trying to manufacture runs in often games where the opposing team scores 3 or less runs.

Pirates will likely mount a late season comeback

Sandy D · #73 04-30-2014

Dodgers are really stacked as is the Angels.

rsot · #74 05-02-2014

Red Sox are wavering but it's early.

Giants are looking good right now. Bullpen is solid as always. Vogelsong and Lincecum seem to be pitching better.

Mike Moorse is on fire. Would rather pay him than Fatso unreliable Sandovol.

Tim Hudson has been on fire too. He is the active Win's leader for a reason. He does not throw hard maybe gets up to 90 mph. But with his sinker and hitting all his locations. They guy is unreal. What a pickup.

Sabean is the best GM in baseball right now. I give lots of credit to Billy Bean for what he works with. Buts lets win a playoff series before you give him anymore credit.

Grand slam by Toronto vs Pittsburgh - nice shot

rsot · #77 05-04-2014

Hmm Marlins' uniforms are kind of off, this season

I wanted to trade Sandoval after his 3 hrs in the World Series when you could actually get something for him.

The only reason Lincecum got 35 Mil for 2 years is because there are too many Giants fans who know nothing about baseball that love the guy. Here with all the Marijuana and his long hair and stuff. People in the Bay Area really like characters. He got paid because to many people in the seats have shelled out money for his jersey. Same thing with Sandavol, too many fans with those Panda hats on.

Vogelsong has arguably been just as good and bad that previous 3 years as Lincecum.

I will give the Giants fans credit for coming out and supporting the team and selling out for like 3 straight seasons. Went to a Giants game in September last year when they where 10 games out. It felt like they where still playing for the playoffs. Quite unique. Only other team I can say that has fans that supports bad teams like that is the Cubs. Unreal turning on WGN in August the cubs are 20 games out and the stadium is packed with everyone wearing their cubs gear.

Brewers, Giants, and Rockeis. Only 3 teams with over 20 wins at this point.

Rockies have been playing very well as well as the Brewers thus far. Don't think many people have them up there in the standings. As well as my Giants.

Pirates are tanking after their surprise 2013 season. Mets and Marlins have been competitive. The NL East is looking pretty damn close thus far. As well as the entire American league except the Astros.

I am hoping for some interesting playoff chases.

I don't know about everyone else. But baseball is not action like Football. But there is something about watching games every day and the ups and downs of a season. That I absolutely love.

I guess I am a marathon guy (run 4 so far) not a sprinter I would come in last. Lol

Hah Astros - best of luck to them

Blue Jays are looking much better. 6 Home Runs for the Melk Man already. If Reyes can get back to normal. Jays have a good chance of competing in the AL East. Especially when they play at home. It is a big advantage. Remember my Giants going up there last year and getting absolutely destroyed.

Maybe the Canadian Authorities can hold Adam Jones from the Orioles again for multiple hours thinking he is Pac Man Jones. LAMO. That was classic.

rsot · #83 05-07-2014

So true - Pac Man Jones hah.

Toronto is still so flaky - ups and downs.

vogeltron · #84 05-08-2014

How are the Tigers 20-9. Not questioning the records. But them only playing 29 games thus far. Every other team has played 34-36 games?

Blue Jays are a player in my opinion they have the lineup and the home field advantage to the the AL East this year. Finally get back to the Playoffs.

In my opinion they are this years Pittsburgh Pirates. At-least get in that Wild Card game. Burhle being dominant. If the Melk Man and Reyes come through. Rasmus is a Wild Card. This team is dangerous.

It reminds me of my 2010 Giants. Spent the entire season under the Radar trailing the division leader. Came out hot in the playoffs and got a few breaks (Brooks Conrad) and won the whole damn thing.

rsot · #86 05-08-2014

City can only hope so

How are the Braves looking?

Sandy D · #87 05-08-2014

Dodgers look real good one paper and on field but for some reason they remind me of the Indiana Pacers and could choke when it comes down to a must needed win.
