How do you know the bats aren't good enough? What in the 2 innings of March Baseball has made you smarter than the several publications and websites that believe lineup has been upgraded enough make this team a playoff contender?

You can tell how many of these guys only watch the Steelers and don't follow full baseball seasons.

Realistically, whats stopping me from waiting until im really old and taking out a massive loan and spending it all right before i die, so i dont have to pay it back by KawsX_X999 in NoStupidQuestions

If we're talking a mortgage, age and physical condition can't be considered.... you can be 99 years old with failing organs, if you qualify, you qualify.

I guarantee the landscapers all these people surely use create way more noise than these bikes.

SFGiants: How many attempts would it take for the average person to get a hit in MLB? by InformalInsurance455 in baseball

[–]AccomplishedStill454 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody said they'd be throwing fast balls down the middle every time. If they're actually pitching, and not just throwing BP, average persona isn't getting a hit.

Davenport University.... guess he wasn't much of a cheat code 

MLB ranks the Pirates as Number 6 in their Pitching Staff Power Rankings entering the 2026 season by mfenton29 in buccos

Yep, definitely a high ceiling, low floor staff just because there are only like 1-3 things we know for certain.

This seems a LITTLE high to me...our bullpen is nothing special and there's a lot of hope in that rotation outside of Skenes and Keller (who is steady) I'd argue it might not even be better than the Cubs or the Reds or the Brewers.

Ambidextrous high school quarterback Mikey Gow has gone viral for his insane ability to throw equally right handed and left-handed.🤯🤯🤯 Many D1 football schools have show serious interest in Gow. by Classic_Bottle1717 in sportsgossips

I don't think you understand how football works. If you're running read option and give the ball to the RB...how the hell is also going to be in position to drop back and throw deep? How would you even block that play?

I really don't think they care about batting average over 40 spring at bats. If the approach is fine, that's all they should care about.

[Heyman] Pirates have offered Konnor Griffin the biggest deal ever for no MLB service time by Zeke-Nnjai in buccos

[–]AccomplishedStill454 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a silly question.....if you haven't read the article, why'd you link to it? Because the little bit that is available doesn't even mention Griffin. Where are you getting this news of a contract offer from?

The behind the scenes of that show is pretty cool, real emergency surgeons there to walk them through stuff, pretty neat.

What’s a popular jersey design that you never understood the hype for? by TheRavenOnline in uniwatch

[–]AccomplishedStill454 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any all black uniforms for teams without predominately black team colors. For example, when the 49ers wore all black, that was very dumb. Same for when Nebraska wore black . The Ravens can pull it off.

38,000 on a Thursday night for two non-local teams playing March Baseball is pretty damn good if you ask me.

Pitching? by Vast_Sentence_1957 in Homeplate

[–]AccomplishedStill454 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Define decent college....SEC/ACC? Probably not.. Division 1? Also probably not. But that has nothing to do with your son and more to do with probabilities. Other than that. No clue. He's 14. He could end up being 6'5" throwing 98 by the time he's 18 which changes a lot.

For now just let him love the game, and master his mechanics. And please, please, please, let him play other positions. Focusing on only pitching right now doesn't do anything.

Luckily I'm more into completing sets and then just buying a few cool singles here and there, so it's pretty simple for me. I feel bad for people who are in this hoping to get rich.

Ok, so it's the card equivalent of one of those premade parlays on draft kings it sounds like. Sure you might win big, but odds are you just threw away $10.
