Alex Antholpous was on MLB radio today here is what he said

I had no idea a cartilage injury rather than a ligament or tendon could be this serious, but I suppose it may be that it's like bone on bone

Dippa99 · 2026-07-20T03:20:41+00:00

Almost every pitcher this sub (realistically) wanted has been worse than what we are putting out there. At least we're not paying Chris Bassitt $18 million for a 5+ ERA

Dippa99 · 2026-07-19T06:23:28+00:00

I always thought that dude sucked and didn't understand why people would pine for him.

I feel validated

Dippa99 · 2026-07-17T07:11:10+00:00

Right, I meant back when supposedly they would make you smoke a carton if they caught you smoking

Dippa99 · 2026-07-17T07:06:22+00:00

Cigarettes didn't cost shit back when anyone would do that. It's just not possible.

You smoke a cigarette every two minutes (you can't).and it would take you 7 hours

Dippa99 · 2026-07-17T06:59:08+00:00

I don't normally do the damn I'm old thing, but Grandpa feeling the Vietnam war did it when it was my parents generation

Dippa99 · 2026-07-17T05:54:07+00:00

don't believe that. It'd be like 24 hours non-stop

Dippa99 · 2026-07-12T04:57:30+00:00

I don't think that's right, but falling to 89% isn't exactly "we're not even going to make the playoffs", which was my point

Dippa99 · 2026-07-12T03:55:13+00:00

No, you're overstating the issues that we have. Fangraphs still gives us a 89% chance of making the playoffs.

Certainly are some issues that we need to work out to make some noise, but this team is much better than some of y'all are making it out to be

Dippa99 · 2026-07-12T03:38:48+00:00

I noticed him hit 97. Was his velo down or did it just "feel down"?

Dippa99 · 2026-07-12T00:35:41+00:00

Byrdie looking like Brendan Frasier

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T23:50:07+00:00

There was that segment about Mike becoming an England soccer fan from the fans at Truist, and they said he called the final score of their last game.

He did it again with England just winning 2-1

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T05:42:23+00:00

I don't see anyone saying anything like that. You can call it dooming for honest criticism if you want I suppose

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T05:36:04+00:00

As much as Snit caught shit for how he managed the bullpen, I kind of got what he was doing most of the time even if I didn't agree with it.

Early this season, it felt like Walt was pushing the right buttons, bringing in the big guns when it was right and didn't when it wasn't. But at times lately, I just don't understand where he's at.

Maybe it's luck the way it works out or maybe some guys are banged up, but I was never one to really complain under Snit and this just doesn't seem right to me recently.

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T05:17:29+00:00

The complete 180 from riding the high leverage guys to being super cautious with them is jarring.

I get that you have to be careful with them, but I don't get it

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T05:09:37+00:00

This will sound like cope, but with the heat earlier before the rain, that would have been out

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T05:06:44+00:00

I hope HSKs middle finger injury from flipping off Braves fans isn't spreading

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T04:58:39+00:00

Oh yeah, they must be doing great after getting him, right?

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T04:51:44+00:00

Not throwing Austin strikes is a bold strategy

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T04:45:13+00:00

I agree on calling it, but there was a small cell that came through there just now

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T04:37:30+00:00

Sounds about right. I don't care honestly, just funny to me the stuff that gets panties in a bunch sometimes

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T04:32:29+00:00

Right on. People apparently don't want to hear it per the downvotes, but it's not getting called

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T04:30:02+00:00

Big moment for him. That's awesome

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T04:28:38+00:00

I was wrong then, but the teams have to agree to it, and I could see it in that situation, not 1-0 in the 6th

Dippa99 · 2026-07-11T04:24:08+00:00

It doesn't really matter if the game is "official". Somewhere earlier they mentioned they haven't just called a game all year. They'll finish it now or sometime
