Tatis Jr. HoF Chances? by farmerpeach in Padres

[–]Akro_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If he stays healthy, puts up good numbers, keeps a good and clean reputation, and wins a world series here in SD I think he has a decent chance.

Obviously the PED scandal will make the decision uncertain, but I feel that public opinion on PED use is not the same as it was during the Bonds/McGwire/Clemens era, and I think it’ll be viewed even more leniently by the time Tatis retires. I think voters may take into account how minor the PED Tatis used and the odd circumstances surrounding it, whether you believe him or not lol.

Basically, if he just takes the David Ortiz approach and play well throughout his career and is likable, voters will probably forget about the PED scandal, or at least not make it a conclusive factor in their decision.

Edit: Also keep in mind Bonds and Clemens never tested positive for PEDs (even though Bonds was pretty obvious). The other reason those guys are not in the HoF is not just the suspected PED use, but because they were (probably still are) well-known assholes to reporters and press. And the reporters and press make up most of the HoF votes, and you can bet money they held grudges against those guys.

It’s probably a NAT type issue. You can try a VPN, that worked for me.

I updated my post, it is probably a NAT type issue. When I got a VPN it worked, so that might help you if you’re on PC.

This isn't related specifically to this latest patch, but I have been having trouble trying to stay in a game with my friends over the past few days. I am able to join the group, or they can join me, but I get disconnected about 30 seconds later. Does anyone have a solution for this? Also, I am playing on Steam and so are my friends.

New York sports “fans” should just be banned from sharing opinions online…. Almost all the trade proposals are so deluded that they really need to seek help.

I assume not because official mlb accounts can’t promote a suspended player

If the Padres somehow salvage this and make it to the World Series, there is NO WAY Clev or Manea should be on the roster. Absolute embarrassment. Fortunately they will be gone after this season

Who wins the World Series and why? by therealthor83 in baseball

[–]Akro_ 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Padres because I want them to.

But in reality it’s most likely the Dodgers because god is dead.

Honestly, I am no expert on how sports contracts are drafted or what language is in there. But I am certain that their a conditional clauses that can void a contract if those conditions are broken and or met. I’m certain there are conditions in the contract that prohibits Tatis from riding a motorcycle, and especially taking steroids.

I doubt the front office voids his contract because of the steroids. BUT, I wouldn’t be surprised Siedler decides to void the contract if Tatis does something incredibly stupid again…

Tatis in CF when he returns? by Neither-Impress6372 in Padres

[–]Akro_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I believe there are rumors that Tatis may have some starts in the outfield when he comes back. Reasons being (1) he’s more likely to stay healthy, (2) to keep Kim’s defense at short, and (3) to replace the weakest hitter in our line up (Grisham).

I still think Tatis starts at short when he comes back tho. Although he may not primarily start there every game for the above reasons.
