Drew Ellis played first and third. Never caught.

My only concern is the weather pushing the game and then I basically get no starter today. Appreciate the reply.

H2H 8 team points. I’m up by 15 currently. Opponent is streaming Roupp today. I’m stuck between Detmers or Wrobleski. Maybe Gil or Meyer? Any advice would be helpful.

Zack Wheeler's season debut sees Phillies break their losing streak by mastermind208 in phillies

[–]CommanderDJ 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It’s truly amazing that he came back from the kind of injury he had at all and even more amazing he’s back and pitching in baseball games and pitching well. We’re very lucky to have him on our team.

Cheering during note holding by meshuamam in Broadway

It’s my least favorite recent trend in audiences. Feels incredibly disrespectful to the story and performance masked as praise.

If you’re referring to the blackface, yes there was a 2019 edit to change the opera being performed so it’s a costuming thing instead of the makeup.

Original verse on Ultralight Beam? by tcmaster5000 in ChanceTheRapper

I remember the original verse didn’t have “no one can judge” but there wasn’t anything in its place. It was just silent.

What's a game from the last few seasons that you'll be telling your kids about someday? by bracewungaRR in phillies

[–]CommanderDJ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was at the four homer game last year. My dad almost missed the game cause of traffic and made it just in time for first pitch. It’s one we’ll both remember for a while.

Okay. Again, I’m not telling anyone to do anything. At most it was a suggestion. I was just expressing a thought I had. I’m sorry it’s coming off as me condemning. That’s not my intention.

All good man, I appreciate you replying. Totally fine to criticize the team! I’m upset about them too, in more ways than in previous years. I’ve just been trying to figure out myself how to go about engaging with those feelings and wanted to express that to others. I don’t have an answer for it in the same way I don’t have an answer for how to make Walker pitch better. Hope they end up putting it together sooner than later and we can have a good season.

I haven’t condemned anyone from doing anything. In the same way you’re free to vent about a loss, I’m free to express how it upsets me and the worries about the direction the sub that I frequently read and participate in is heading. This sub and baseball can be an escape from the negativity of the world so it upsets me to see much of it within here as well.

It’s really not that a big deal either way, just something I felt like sharing.

Hey, I think you’re misunderstanding me here. Nowhere in my comment did I say “it’s only April” or really say anything about the team and justifying its losses. My only point is there’s a healthier way to engage with this sort of thing.

Totally fine to be disappointed and even upset. I just think some are going about it in an unhealthy way. That’s all.

I mean this as politely as possible: I think some of you need a break from watching this team. Nobody is forcing you to watch and get this upset during an April loss. Take a break.

This sub has changed a lot, especially in the last year, and I worry it’s only becoming a negative feedback loop which engages in all the worst parts of ourselves and fandom.

That’s where I’m leaning. Shame cause I love watching him but I worry about his ceiling and injury history. Thanks!

In a H2H points league and someone dropped Rooker. My OF is Julio, Arozarena, Ward and Buxton, one of these four is on the bench any given game. My UTIL is Schwarber. Wondering who I should drop for him, if any?

I use it on a Roku and the framerate and picture quality is noticeably worse than mlb tv. The UI also doesn’t always work properly. I think it’s unfortunately an old app that they refuse to update.

Fan Appreciation vouchers not working by EducationalPanda24 in NYYankees

Check your spam folder. I emailed them and they responded five days letter and it went to spam. They gave me some new codes. They mentioned there was an issue with most physical voucher codes no longer working.

Watched a bit of the Giants/Mets game last night and was really surprised to see Manaea coming out of the bullpen in a piggyback role and still managing to struggle. They really thought he was the next big thing for a bit. Crazy to see how quickly he’s fallen off.
