The Rays and Phillies are both like running into a buzzsaw right now.
Less excusable getting swept though by the 2025 Braves.

Not on paper but they still have Chris Sale and Acuna is really heating up. Still watch out for them.

ArchiveApologies for bringing politics into the Baseball thread again, but I just had to vent a little after coming across this post. And because all the other sports sites are woke as shit. After having to sit through both a 7-1 embarrassment against the White Sox. And all the degenerate alphabet mafia agitprop that accompanied it on Pride Night.
Is this Blue Jays fans worried about the drubbing the team just took? Whether Spencer Turnbull is cooked or whether he can regain his velocity? Tampa Bay being red hot and passing the Jays in the Wild Card standings? Who is going to fill in the 4th and 5th rotation spots for the rest of the year? Was the awful outfield defense against the Sox by Nathan Lukes, Jonatan Clase and Addison Barger for real?
No, his main concern the day after is that the Jays officially on the field weren't similarly bending their knees to faggot fealty.
Despite Vlad Jr himself present as the player representative to catch a first pitch from some other degenerate figurehead.
Just looking up the first page or two on this Redditors profile, he seems to be a gay, HIV+ arborist contractor in Toronto who doesn't tell his contacts about being pozzed until too late and advocates for other pozzed fags not to disclose their status either because "it's just like your politics or your credit score".

"But they didn't make Vlad wear the rainbow..."
I only partially knew this, but apparently the team wears their dumb black "City Connect" third jerseys every Friday, which is why they were in Black alt uniforms and not Pride shit.
I mean it's nothing new, but just more tiring evidence that the narcissistic supply for the alphabet mob is insatiable.

I, for one, am surprised that a gay Redditor (redundant) is acting like a gay Redditor (redundant.) Typical LGBTQIAREDDIT+ fashion to whinge that the queerness wasn't queer enough for their gay sensibilities. Whenever they do a military day/night event make sure to check their account and ctrl+F for the word "fascism" and its derivatives.

Redditors are also upset that Cards PbP guy Chip Caray had a Freudian slip when having to promote Disability Pride merch.

Big Papi's apparently still flinging shit at and showing DM's with Devers. He said something about "in being the leader of the team, you have to show up in many areas including the glove" which is rich coming from Mr. DH but you can also make the argument that he's a prime case of a star slugger who accepted a DH role so that his team could field a better stretcher/glove in the infield. Messy all around and not a good look for Ortiz.

I've heard the pro-Breslow/anti-Devers side argue that Papi was a team player by picking up a first basemen's glove when the Red Sox went on the road for interleague games without the DH to keep his bat in the lineup.

Apologies for more Reddit-tier baseball ragebait, but I must report (and vent) from my travels among the NPC.
I hope this local archive actually displays. I'm away and having to use Tor to circumvent firewalls.
First off, the broadcast caught Ketel Marte of the DBacks last night sobbing between innings and needing to be consoled by his manager Torey Lovullo and his teammates.
It kicked up a ton of Reddit frenzy because allegedly a fan heckled something about Marte's dead mother who died in a car accident in 2017. No sources seem to actually be able to attribute exactly what was said (and soyboy reporters won't repeat the actual quote because of trigger warnings and fear of copycats). The heckler, from South Chicago where the DBacks were playing the White Sox, was supposedly ejected.
Now Reddit is setting up charitable fundraising campaigns to honor Marte's dead mama. Again, who has been dead for 8 years. And no one gave a shit about until he cried on TV.
Lots of calls for phonebooking of the Chicago heckler as well.
------------
In other baseball Reddit travels, Noah Syndergaard has returned from the shadow realm to sign a minor league deal with the White Sox.
Thor, now 32, and out of baseball for 2 years or so. He apparently is also hated by Reddit.
His crimes
- losing velo and now throwing straight gas at 92-93 instead of 97
- being "uncoachable" once he lost velo with the Dodgers
- preferring hypnosis and other wacky New Age pitching/health philosophy instead of moden MLB high performance stuff and allopathic medicine
- posting a picture on social media one time of a druggie shitting in SF after a visiting win, essentially saying "We got the win, let's get out of here". This makes him an ableist, capitalist pig mocking human misery or something.
-------------
From the Thor discussion, I learned Reddit also hates 1B/DH Rowdy Tellez, recently let go by the Mariners.DH
Tellez was temporarily a Reddit hero last year when the cheap Pirates FO released him days before he was about to reach a PA incentive bonus in his contract when Pittsburgh was eliminated and playing out the dog days of September.
Apparently that's all forgotten now because Tellez, like Thor, is similarly person non grata for...tweeting out once that San Francisco is a shithole.
Also Redditors were sharing a whole bunch of hearsay stories that Rowdy is classist: fun in the clubhouse with fellow players but grumpy with clubhouse staff and plebs.
Maybe all of r/baseball simply lives in the Bay Area?
------------
Finally, former Royals All-Star 2B Whit Merrifield announced his retirement yesterday at 36 after playing his last game with the Braves last September.
A seemingly-not-insignificant portion of the KC fanbase hates Whit because.....he initially didn't get the COVID vaccine during the 2021, 2022 seasons 3-4 years ago.
Merrifield was outed during a road trip to Toronto when 10 Royals had to stay home.
Whit was dealt to Toronto at the deadline in 2021, 2022, initially creating confusion how he would report. However, Merrifield acquiesced essentially immediately, getting the first dose "for a contender" and joining the Blue Jays for the rest of the year.
Blue Jays fans, who seethed and hated every opposing unjabbed player who was outed with every Toronto roadtrip at the time, instantly memoryholed their hate for Merrifield as soon as he bent the knee, got the jab and headed north.
Which creates an interesting dichotomy where certain old KC fans hate Merrifield for being unjabbed for a few months during COVID despite his awesome track record. Where Toronto fans with the memories of goldfish instantly forget he was an unclean conspiracy theorist before he became a Jay because the belated jab absolved his sins. So the Jays fans are happier with Merrifield & his retirement despite him mostly being dogshit after the trade.

That's interesting because he was slated to pitch in a Mets alumni game. I wonder if he'll be retired again by 9/13.
Daniel Murphy also had attempted a 2023 comeback after playing in an old timers game.

It's that time of the year again! The Rangers are evil because we need all Baseball teams to suck cock and eat ass and take cock up the ass and eat cum and have AIDS.
There's also an A&H thread for it

When was the last time child abusers ever got life in prison, or even death? Why do judges keep going easy on them when pedophiles never change?

rape and incest are incredibly common with niggers.
When the “victim” is another monkey then it’s more of a bestiality situation than actual rape, as in of a human.
Of course corrupt shithole country but this punishment likely fits the crime. Shitskins excusing shitskins for dey kulcha

It's a third-world shithole. She's lucky they didn't sentence her to death and let the perpetrator swing the axe.

to be fair she should've gotten more also as she was apparently convicted of sex trafficking her own daughter. but how they can not give him any jail time is beyond absurd, i had hoped since it's the third world they would just burn him in a tire on the courthouse steps and be done with him.
