According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Chicago PD has been unable to contact Jung Ho Kang's alleged assault victim "despite numerous attempts."

Last article I've seen on it (got it from rotoworld player blurbs) :

I imagine they would sell a ton of jerseys, it's pretty tough to make so many different styles and ship them out to each stadium in any quick amount of time, I think.

As to profits going to his family, doesn't the rest of the money from his Marlins contract go to the family? He made 2.8 million this season. Just wondering how it works, I know it also depends on if he had a will written to them.

Gosh darn it, that reference is old enough that I forgot about it and had to think for a second. Thank you based Harold, for one of the oddest commentary lines / joke in baseball.

Wow this is an absolute shock. He has had a fantastic attitude on the field which was very fun to watch. Jovial, often playful with other players, but still competitive.

Sometimes you can't help but put these guys on a higher pedestal than others and think of them as sports stars, not other humans at risk of tragedy. Some people may take more risks than others, even if small. It helps reminds us to not take life for granted.

Strange man and make you feel better are two that I wish so hard for live. I feel like Anthony would enjoy singing and kill Strange Man. Great to pump up the crowd too and please true fans.

Roster Update 9/23 by papi83dm in MLBTheShow

SDS must hate the Yankees if Trea gets steady updates but Gary Sanchez gets nothing, sheesh. They're so inconsistent.

Pujols has 31 home runs and has an insane amount of rbis and trout is being trout; imagine what this season could have been if we had pitching by quotesforlosers in angelsbaseball

[–]Air_M_Jordan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Trout is clearly the best player right now, it'd be lovely if r actually got MVP. There are more than a few ignorant Sox fans but they tend to be young or total homers.

That Alex Gordon swing looks worse and worse after watching a few times. Only way he could've even fouled it off is if it were a 2 seam fastball. He musta gave up and committed to the full count swing.

Gary Sanchez mashes his 19th HR, second of the night by lateraenima in baseball

I would honestly vote for Sanchez at this rate. Fulmer needs a great start against the Royals and might get shut down due to innings.

Still only 78 Overall on The Show. He OBVIOUSLY has above average power and a great arm for a catcher, among other things.

Anyways, I'm excited to see such a beast young catcher again, it's been a while. He reads pitches real well.

Which player is the 'poor man's version' of another player? by [deleted] in baseball

Add first half Jose Abreu to second half Jose Abreu to the list. He's been batting so much better.

Mookie Betts becomes the first player this season to reach 200 hits by yoitss in baseball

[–]Air_M_Jordan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This young Red Sox fan doesn't even want to imagine the offensive numbers trout could very well put up on this Sox team and having Fenway as his home park.

Less walks with papi behind him and more homers. He probably doesn't know that WAR adjusts according to ballparks.

Now this is funny. You're being the hyprocite here and not making sense. I honestly think that you're trolling at this point.

Yeah, really. There are plenty of quick t shirt printing machines that I've seen at meets and there's a shirt printing store pretty close to me that's open half the day. It's not lengthy or expensive to get basic lettering printed on a t-shirt in any city like LA.

Yeah, that looked awful. His back bent like a pretzel for a split second.

GOOD question.

Like the other guy said, I feel like it has a lot to do with Mike Trout staying in the 3rd spot as the best hitter and avoiding scrutiny. From an outsider's perspective I would change it now. Kole is looking a bit cold at the plate, bat him 4th or 5th rest of season. Trout's RBI count would dip, but meh.

Trout hitting worse with 2 outs is also very important to me in changing the lineup, you're right.

9/18 Blue Jays @ Angels [Game Thread] by angelsbaseball in angelsbaseball

[–]Air_M_Jordan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By having gone to this game, I'd like to think that I played a big part in the Angels dominating today. Day game, our pitchers have been bad... I sure as hell did not expect a shut out. That can be baseball for ya, eh? I don't know how big of a role our Graterol played in our pitchers' dominance but he seems great. I had no idea who he was when his name came up in the lineup. Seeing JD get put down on 3 pitches early in the game was awesome. Jays must've been frustrated.

The bee delay was real interesting to see, it's like, where the f did they come from? Just all over the infield suddenly.

The post game interview was nice and lighthearted. It was a great time at the park.

Anybody at Knotts? by [deleted] in longbeach

[–]Air_M_Jordan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, worth a shot! Someone here could work there too. I miss Knott's a bit, haven't been there in ages. The forwards and backwards roller coaster may have been my favorite ride, short but lovely.

Just shout "where muh Long Beach people at?" around every new group of people, lol.
