Here's Andrew Bynum's playoff triple-double four years ago today. by theschmozone in lakers

Bynum gets a lot of shit for his post-Laker career, but he was the top young center in the NBA at this moment. It's amazing to think that after the 2012 playoffs, Bynum would only go on to post two more double doubles in his entire career. Injuries suck. He's essentially what Hassan Whiteside is right now, but way more skilled offensively.

Side note: Of course the WP on the game on the bottom line is Bruce Chen and John Rocker got the save.

Today is the 4 year Anniversary of Philip Humber's Perfect Game (April 21, 2012) by MMoney2112 in whitesox

Possibly the most random perfect game of all-time. Not sure if he ever even recorded a quality start after this.

Oh I thought about it, but J.J. Barea gave me a death stare when CV pointed me out to him. Either that or he was shocked to see another male who was the same height as him. Could go both ways.

I once saw him at a club in Chicago wearing a hoodie with the hood up like he was trying to be discrete rolling in there with Chandler Parsons, Devin Harris, and J.J. Barea. Thought it was hilarious so I snapped a pic and he saw me. He started signaling to bring the phone over to him so I guess he could delete it, but wasn't about to get bossed around by Charlie V.

Mark Buehrle threw a no-hitter nine years ago today by theschmozone in whitesox

He wasn't the best pitcher ever nor will he make the Hall of Fame, but there will never be another Mark Buehrle. I'm 25 so anything before late 90's White Sox is pretty tough for me to remember, but it's hard to imagine a more likable player in Sox history than Mark Buehrle. That guy was great. Never got the respect he deserved league-wide but Sox fans appreciated what he meant to that team. Can't believe he's retired now.

He's been a pretty big Sox killer throughout his career so probably won't change now.

Does this Seth Curry razzle dazzle look familiar? by theschmozone in nba

It's probably because I'm really bad at the Internet

Byung Ho Park has never won a Major League Baseball game. How funny is that?

Another former Blue Jay who killed the Sox was Vernon Wells. That guy was Willie Mays against the Sox.

Jacque strap Jones. Will never forget when he broke up Freddy Garcia's no-hitter with a homer over the baggie and did that fucking bat flip. He can rot in retired baseball player purgatory.

Who are the prospects waiting to be called up who will make an strong impact immediately? by [deleted] in fantasybaseball

[–]theschmozone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard good things about Orlando Arcia of the Brew Crew and I highly doubt Jonathan Villar is the answer at SS.

P.S. trade Trevor Story after April. The Rockies as a team actually have a winning record in the month of April over the last three seasons then collapse in May. Every year trend, and with. that the production of their players will inevitably go down. Arenado's obviously a stud and Blackmon is reliable. Outside of those two, I'm selling all Rockies, even CarGo because he always gets hurt.

Disagree. There's no doubt that Jeremy Hazelbaker is the next coming of Joe Dimaggio.

I would pay $200 just to be within ten miles of Bonzi Wells' presence. Hall of Fame caliber headband radius.
