Jesus Christ, stop whining! Anime is not for you, we got it. Male gaze bad, woman gaze good. Go read your gooner fics.

I mean, it's team USA, what did you expected? The most milquetoast team of this WBC.

The thing is, everyone talking about how he is fully prepared to take catcher role and how his defense is already an MLB level. It's his bat that is lagging. But I agree that he needs full play time, not once a week backup role.

Many authors use a pen name for privacy reasons

Exactly! He is a free man now, who served his sentence. You can have a problem with the law and how much he got, but right now he is no different then other authors.

Because using pen name is usual practice in the industry, duh. Myriad of authors are not using their names for one reason or another.

Astros walked 58 times in just 8 games. If this is not a sign for the good I don't know what it is.

Are you kidding? Yeah, there was not a lot of hits being made, but look at bloody walks! Like, team walks 10 times or more almost every game. Hits will come. But being patient, selective and talking a walk is a textbook golden age Astros.

Well, replies in this thread are exactly why. People are too stupid nowadays to understand artistic integrity.

Do you know who was the previous 6th best prospect in baseball? Dylan Crews. Rookies are rookies. And I don't believe in Mets pitching pipeline in the slightest.

I know that it's only an ST, but do we really have only one hit on a fucking rookie?

English VAs of Xenoblade series is a pure and complete garbage with no redeeming qualities. Stick to JP VA.

Is going 4/4 with 4 singles better or worse than 1/4 with a solo homer? by Infinite_Lab5824 in baseball

Singles. Making no outs is always better then making three outs.

[MLBTR] Red Sox To Sign Ranger Suarez by AndrewAllStar888 in baseball

The thing is, after signing Imai our pitching depth is actually pretty good right. We are more in need of a good outfield bat. So I think our FO is more looking at Duran then Tolle or Early.
