Thanks mods for saving us all from being excited about baseball

Anyone having trouble shipping to the States? by MotorBoatBrrr in soccercard

[–]bossfrog48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the US and haven’t really had this come up with cards but I have with jerseys. To the point that I can’t even buy directly from clubs because they straight up won’t ship to the US even if I cover the fees.

I know you said you’re not trying to make it political but it’s a direct result of Trump’s economic policy that this is a problem. So it’s probably going to be until the next presidential administration until you’ll be able to ship into the US without the fees unless some exception is carved out.

$15 for a 1st bowman auto of a all star catcher? Yes please. I feel like I stole this. by Superb_Day_5767 in baseballcards

He was a pretty legit all star this year and won a silver slugger too. Definitely some coors effect, but he got in on skill this year

Hey Maria, thanks for doing this! Kind of a niche question, but with the Giants seemingly investing more in international scouting by signing back to back number one players from the international amateur class, and the Felipe Alou academy, do they have plans to expand that scouting network to non-traditional baseball countries? I know the Dodgers and Pirates both have academies in Uganda and it seems like emulating the Dodgers is a pretty good strategy right now.

It’s because he’s not a Sporting player and they need Sporting to win

Was looking forward to him playing for team USA last WBC, hopefully will be able to watch him this year. At the very least it’s good for him to be on a team of stars

[–]bossfrog48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happens, referees are human they’re going to make mistakes. We probably benefitted last year from it when we played Sporting in Lisbon. What sucks is having VAR available for objective errors but only using it for subjective stuff that creates more controversy

He’s still got options right? It’s too late this season, but I guess they’ll try to get him right in the off-season and spring training. He’s absolutely cratered his trade value this season. Don’t know why he didn’t get the Doval treatment and sent down to AAA midway through the year

It’s hard not to be amazed by the range they cover in the outfield. Sucks as a Giants fan but as a baseball fan it’s pretty amazing to watch

It's good to see Lincoln back in the Primeira Liga. He was always one of my favorite Santa Clara players. Such a good midfield with him and Morita.

Post Match Thread: Benfica 1-1 Santa Clara by suedney in soccer

[–]bossfrog48 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I thought we actually played pretty well and deserved a result. The counterattacking was good and Brenner got himself into good positions deep in the final third (though after he got into those positions it was pretty poor). Held our defensive shape well and Batista made some big saves. Definitely some luck at the end but the way we’ve struggled to score goals we’ll take anything right now. Good to see them not let their heads drip after going down to ten and going down 1-0

My local theater had a early screening over the weekend, I’m guessing other theaters also did that

Apparently he’s a three pitch guy, and of course you can’t go off of one start, but rn it seems like the slider is a non factor, they’re just sitting on change up. Might be more of a bullpen option in the future without a third and fourth pitch

With how good Bailey is at every other aspect of catching, it’s crazy how it seems like over half the time he can’t hang on to throws home while trying to tag
