    According to John Perrotto of Todays Knuckleball, Roberts’ performance swayed the opinion of an NL executive:

    “I’ll be honest, I wasn’t too impressed with him early in the season,” an NL executive said of Roberts. “I thought he was a little bit overmatched and maybe a little too nice of a guy for the job but he’s really provided a real steady hand. He’s really growing into the job and he’s going to be very good at it for a long time.”

    Boring as you may think it is, and it may well be to many others, also I'd love a team of Coreys, all week long and twice on Sundays.
    Then maybe, we'd get rid of this loser yoke that's been around our necks for almost 3 decades.
    Know what's boring..? watching our arch enemy and some other team play for the championship every year, imo. That's boring for me, anyway.
    I'll take 8 Seagarbots and quiet excellence every season, every game.
    Baseball fun is winning, too.
    I could care less about bat flips or some other performance.

    Of course I like winning; that wasn't the point that I was trying to make.

    It has always amazed me how the media ridicules Puig for his antics and praises Bumgarner for being a douchebag. He's just a doesn't take any shit country boy while Puig is an immature idiot. Even studs like Harper who certainly help their team win have been ridiculed for not playing the "right way".

    No, just a rant. Didn't mean to suggest you didn't like winning...but you did mention Corey Seagar as boring, right?
    My tuppence on boring-like Seagars is I want 8 of them.
    Different strokes.

    I kind Corey to be very exciting tbh. Maybe I am more excited by the fact that he's 22 and this good more than the way he conducts himself.

    Lol Harold Reynolds a few years ago.


    Kenny: how has Scherzer been better than Kuroda?
    Harold: He's better.
    Kenny: How?
    Harold: (freezes) I'm not gonna sit here and say 'how' because I don't know.

    You need to back off when that's all you've got, especially when discussing baseball with someone who knows nothing about the game that doesn't involve an acronym.

    Reynolds comes off as an idiot and Kenney is just a twit.

    The various expressions on Kenny's face throughout that are all nice variations of "I'm dealing with an idiot and I have to restrain myself"
