  1. I was watching ithe 8th inning n bed last night McGonigle's AB reminds me of Dave Bergman's 1984 AB vs. the Blue Jays on Monday Night Baseball. 13 pitchers. Foul after foul after foul until he hit the game winning HR. The pitches he took. This dude's the real deal, man.
  2. What's # 1? (and yes, the Pitt is great. but Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul land Sopranos are my top 3 - because those were shot and edited like movies).
  3. Boots a grouder and then has lame warning-track power. Send him to Toledo !
  4. He looks so out of place in a Padres (or Mets) uniform.
  5. I was surprised at how easy it's been. $20 a month? No prolly. Waiting to see if the audio and video go CONSTANTLY out of sync, like with FanDuel. I watched on my computer today while at work, so I don't know what the TV experience will be like.
  6. Do you know what that song is really about?
  7. How about seeing it about 94 more times before October this year?
  8. See: Chris Pittaro 1985 Opening Day. Means nothing
  9. Welcome to the big leagues, Kid !
  10. Mets are stealing signs accusation in 3.........2.............1
  11. No, this is East Baltimore and the drugs are about to wear off. Good luck.
  12. Another Tigers-Padres memories
  13. You can hold on to that trophy for 2 years. (sorry, I am convinced there won't be a '27 season). So go for it NOW
  14. What a glorious thread to see HAPPY NEW YEAR ! Here's a Tigers-Padres moment from history
  15. He's going to have a breakout year. By the end of it you'll be saying "Parker Who?"
  16. Wenceel, if you had done this a week ago...................... I feel kind of bad for Jace Jung. Couldn't have asked him to have a better Spring, but he'll get called up before too long, probably when the team realizes that McGonigle is a bum. Players with most presure are Parker Meadows and Jahmai Jones. I like Jones, but I think Jones only made it because he's out of options. No more waiting for Meadows to put it together. Show some of what we saw at the end of 2024. We know you can do that, let's do that again. Matt Vierling is the most underrated player on this team. Overrated? Well buddies Greene and Tork are in that conversation, but maybe because we overvaule them a bit. I don't expect McKinstry to play the way he did in the first half last year. Colt Keith can't slog through April and half of May anymore. If he can just be an average version of himself in the first 6 weeks, you've got a potential .275/340/.750 guy there with an ability to plug into 3 positions and DH. What is our bullpen Drew Anderson Manny DeJesus Kyle Finnegan Brennan Hanifee Tyler Holton Brant Hurer Kenly Jansen Connor Seabold Will Vests Looks like one too many..........is someone injured to start the season?
  17. What number is McGonigle? Can't be 85. That's a Spring Training number. #7? #15? #41?
  18. With Hall Of Famer Max Clark (just ask him) on the way, we won't need him.
  19. He's gotta prove he IS a centerpiece. He was so up and down. If they make the postseason again, he needs to come up with some key hits.
  20. put me in coach, i'm ready to play.(clap clap clap).........today (clap clap clap)
  21. Kevin McGonigle's family is like the Seattle Pilots equipment trucks in 1970 Those trucks, 2 days before the season, sat in Provo, Utah, waiting to hear if they were going to drive to Seattle or turn right and head to Milwaukee. Kevin's family waits........somewhere between Pennsylvania and San Diego - 2 days beore the season, waiting to find out where to go. Where do you think they are, Missouri? Those poor fools, waiting, just waiting. ♫ Go, go you Pilots You proud Seattle team Go, go you Pilots go out and build a dream You brought the majors to the evergreen northwest So go, go you Pilots you're going to be the best ♫
  22. They offered me 2 free tickets to any game that takes place between March and July 1 2027 (get it?)
  23. Does anyone know what happens to the minors if there is a lockout / strike. Are they part of it too now? Those little semi-pro leagues like the one we had in Utica might want to consider coming back next year.
  24. That CBA isn't going to change anything. That's what we thought the last few work stoppages. There's not going to be a salary cap and all these two sides are going to do is piss off their fan base, damage local game-centered economies and push the game further away from regular folks. Hundreds of other entertainment options are out there now. Cutting off their nose to spite their face, right?
