I think it's great that Bauer said in post game interview that he's all for guys doing bat flips and hotdogging. Game needs more of that stuff. Says pitchers don't need to be throwing at guys who show emotion. Couldn't agree more.

Oakland has followed up their 7 game losing streak with a 13 game winning streak. Unusual for them to do this in April.

Anthopoulos is one terrible GM. Wasted $20 mil on Hamels last year, and $11 mil on Smyly this year while letting his bullpen fall apart. Horrific mismanagement.

Imagine if Anthopoulos had to actually build a team's roster and didn't inherit an insane young core of Acuņa, Freeman, Albies, Fried, etc. And lastly he's going to be to run out of town if he can't sign Freeman to an extension this year/ or in the offseason.

He is terrible. I'm shocked fanboy got a job after the Jays debacle.

So, D-Backs play a doubleheader in Atlanta today and give up 1 hit total. Gallen with the 1-hit shutout and Baumgarner with the no-hitter! (which doesn't count)


Baumgarner's shutout improves his ERA to 6.57 LOL

He must have got absolutely shelled earlier in the season that a 7 inning shutout doesn't dent your ERA.

The Acuņa vs. Tatis vs. Soto debate for the decade is going to be a fun one....

He was always overrated, really he made one great move in getting Donaldson, and did well to read the team properly to acquire Price but both the Reyes and Dickey deals completely drained the prospect system and held that team back from being able to do more.

I learned today that the Padres acquired Tatis Jr for 34 year old James Shields.

The guy who gave up a home run to Bartolo Colon.

For 17 year old Fernando Tatis Jr.

Plus.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Ha.

Tatis Jr. wasn't even the best prospect in that trade.

^That was a great moment. It's nice to see players having fun playing a game and not taking everything so seriously.
