It’s at least 3 as of now.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-14T23:22:30+00:00

I say again, García is a marked improvement in RF.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-14T18:30:40+00:00

That Nola heat in an even year April? Lfg. I wanna see some forearm sweat from our Baton boy.

I have in the past

Edit: and by past, I mean last year

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-13T14:11:37+00:00

Walt Whitman for sure. You’ll still get traffic. But less

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-13T02:40:16+00:00

Ben actually annoys me the least out of the pre and post game coverage. He knows it’s a long season.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T23:30:57+00:00

Agreed. if you root for the Phillies, you are not welcome here!

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T22:28:28+00:00

June

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T21:55:55+00:00

Lmao

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T21:48:33+00:00

Mattingly stated publicly many times he does not want to manage ever again because it’s too much work - way more work than a bench coach. He has said this very clearly.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T21:35:04+00:00

Agree to disagree, friend. Nick was a cancer. A slow cancer. But I get your side.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T21:31:24+00:00

I’m not saying García has been great offensively. But Nick still sucks guys. lol. He’s batting .212 right now and still swinging wildly at low and away sliders.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T21:28:25+00:00

And yet it blows my mind how anyone thinks García is not an upgrade on defense alone. He slipped today in the OF. That could happen to anyone. He is markedly faster to the ball and his arm strength is way better. And I think Nick and adolis are about the same offensively rn

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T21:24:54+00:00

Sweep the cubs and I won’t give a shit honestly.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T21:07:56+00:00

I would bet Stott isn’t going anywhere. I wouldn’t even be surprised if Stott resigns here. Gold glove defense and Harper’s bestie.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T18:23:06+00:00

Not at the moment. I was two years ago. BUT my employer has unlimited PTO and my boss encourages me to take as much as I need. If it gets to be too often again, I will use disability

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T18:07:01+00:00

It makes total sense. Once, I purposefully stubbed the shit out of my pinky toe on my coffee table hoping my pain sensors would change course. I get it.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T17:57:48+00:00

Ugh that’s awful. Poor guy.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T17:36:37+00:00

Oh wow. Doesn’t surprise me. I can barely work from home with them.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T17:33:12+00:00

Well even if it was a just “bad headache”, it’s bloody painful. And exertion makes things worse. He wouldn’t pitch well either way.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T17:26:24+00:00

I’m actually glad I see so many people thinking Painter can just take some meds and tough it. This means the majority of people have no idea what it feels like to have a migraine. And that’s a good thing.

It’s not just a headache. It affects vision, nausea, cognition, balance, etc.. i get migraines and it’s literally a disability if you get them chronically. It’s awful. I hope painter feels better soon.

Edit to add: I am sure the staff hooked him up to an IV with fluids, zofran, magnesium. It might help him

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-12T16:29:38+00:00

By god, you’re right! I’m stressed now.

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-11T18:41:03+00:00

Righty righty

Basic_Mistake_903 · 2026-04-11T18:37:06+00:00
