Most of the them are fairly ugly dumb looking. The Rangers version looks like an old timey Tigers jersey from the 30's or some shit. 2nd worse one behind San Diego's abomination.
How to lowkey admit your city is a shithole.

>Settle in to watch Shota Imanaga hurl after a long ass day
>Rain delay so just Boog and Dan hyping up Imanaga
>Boog has started calling his starts 'Shota Time' to invoke Patrick Kane and Showtime
>'We've had to wait for Shota Time before, Dan, but it's must see TV!'
Just.. man. Is there someone I can talk to at the Cubs office about this?

At this moment, the management for Cubs is just broken on almost every level
 
The Mets lost both games of a doubleheader to the Dodgers yesterday. Unless they pull off something like the 2022 Phillies after they fired Girardi there is going to be a giant rentals sale. If the phone isn't ringing already it will be in a few weeks.

1 year deal or final year players:
Everyday lineup: Pete Alonso, Harrison Bader, JD Martinez
Backups: Omar Narvaez, Tyrone Taylor
Starters: Luis Severino, Sean Manaea, Jose Quintana, Adrian Houser
Bullpen: Jorge Lopez, Adam Ottavino, Jake Diekman

The top highest payroll of 2024 and only the Rockies, Marlins, White Sox, and Angels have less wins. Oof.
 
Here's a video I found in my sub feed about Angel Hernandez a couple days ago in the wake of his retirement
 
What is it with the fans sitting behind home plate not being able to chirp? At the Phillies/Rockies game, there was a guy who just yelled the player's jersey numbers, and today there's some fat retard yelling "swing and a miss" at every god damn pitch no matter how far off Harrison is. It's hard to listen while I work.
 
Wish I could tell you but I only really follow the Phillies. If he's as bad as these a-holes hopefully he got the hint and stopped.
Marlins Man is a guy who wears some orange colored Marlins gear at all sorts of other teams games and other sports games, not just Marlins games. I think it was originally some protest against the Marlins sell off when they dumped Yelich and Stanton. He sits behind home plate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marlins_Man
 
Fans chirping from the stands makes baseball fun. I took my dad to see a game a few years back in Cincinnati. I believe it was against the Nationals and we had seats in the first row behind the Reds dugout. Really awesome and got to bullshit with our neighbors. Eventually we caught on to the home plate umpire's motion to signal a strikeout, which was this really funny motion he did with his index finger pointing directly at us with a wrist flick. I think he caught on to us mocking him (he was making shitty calls all night, to be fair) and ended up getting security to tell us to knock it off. Considering it was a toilet bowl of a game anyway, nothing happened as we continued to push the envelope and repeated the strikeout motion.

It's all part of the game, just like the 7th inning stretch and hot dogs.
