La Russa says he did not have a problem with the Twins throwing at his player. I can’t imagine his players like him and I don’t blame them if they didn’t.

Someone should throw behind La Russa.

 

[jpx7]

Why would that organization spend the last half decade building a young exciting team, and then hire a dusty dinosaur to manage it?

It is the plague that is the Reinsdorfs.

Because Jerry Reinsdorf doesn't give a ****.

No, it's because he's actively a piece of ****.

Hired him, then he gets popped for DUI. Sticks with him.

Chefs kiss.

The stories of how the White Sox players really do not like LaRussa is crazy. This early in the season and he has already lost his team

Maybe they are hitting well because they see LaRussa's face on the ball. Just like Castellanos sees Manfred's.

Seriously, just chuck the ball straight into the dugout. Oops.

If I were an MLB player I would be a Scrappy Lunchpail Guy Who Plays the Game the Right Way, except every time I hit a HR against a LaRussa team i would do a KBO-tier bat flip and combine Ozuna and Acuña’s HR trots.

I'd do the the Jimmy Piersall run the bases in reverse order.

Another no hitter.

Baseball is broken.

Baseball is gonna shatter the record for no hitters in a season. 2nd time for the Rangers this season.

 

[thewupk]

Apparently it was mystery bobble head night for the Rangers for all the ones made for the 2020 season that they didn't get to hand out. And a lot of people got a Rangers Kluber one as he no hit them. lmfao

 

[PawPawMaxwell]

Is the new day flail and fail practice going to make no-hitters irrelevent????

 

[UNCBlue012]

I am confident that the #Braves offense would be thriving right now if not for the ball change. They’re still crushing it but the slight changes have clearly thrown them off. Adjustments are needed.

Cleveland got got twice, too. Plesac got no hit against him two starts in a row then himself took a no hitter into the 8th in his next start.

 

[CrazyTrain]

We are seeing that right now, yes.

Need to end the shift and let hitters adjust.

 

[Nerfherders]

Move the pitchers mound back... to second base. Then the pitcher can also play second.

 

[MadduxFanII]

Everyone and their mother is throwing no-hitters, and we're still sitting on Kent Mercker's from nearly 30 years ago.

 

[TURBO]

Does Ohtani get War from hitting and pitching?

 

[thewupk]

Does Ohtani get War from hitting and pitching?

Yes. All pitchers get WAR from hitting/fielding and pitching.

As we would say in my family, we don't name call, but some of his mannerisms are those of an asshole.
