It’s been almost two years. Buehler starts tonight against the Marlins.

Are you getting your fill of the free Jumbo Jacks?

You have to buy a large soda to get the free jumbo Jacks. That said, I try to stay away from soda but I am sure many Dodger fans are taking the offer up.

Quick question: I get that games will be blacked out when live, but do they post them up for streaming on MLB TV after a certain period of time, like 24-hours later?

I’m a Cubs fan in Iowa. We have Marquee to catch live games, but I wanted to go back to watch if I missed the live game.

Just as everyone was fearing a rain delay...walkoff! Tied for first with the Brewers.

It's still early and all that but I think Toronto's season (as a team vying for a postseason spot) is basically over. I think some big changes need to happen. Either shake up the roster, or fire the manager. Maybe the GM should be let go as well. You can only fire so many managers. Ross Atkins needs to take the heat for the inadequate roster construction at some point.

The Mariners won a shootout last night. They don't do that. They squeak by with dismal hitting and stellar pitching.

If their bats start to function at a greater than single A level and their pitching keeps up, this will get to be a lot of fun.

I'm hoping the Mets are waking up. Senga should be back soon. Alvarez (their young catcher) is still a number of weeks away.

 

[Killing Floor]

Bummer is the absolute worst mistake Alex Anthopoulos has made in his career.

What’s the plan moving forward?
Go Braves. Cut your losses.

Can anyone confirm this is true? Looking to subscribe to MLB TV and wanted to make sure I could catch Cubs games on Demand if necessary.

"The big catch with MLB.TV is the blackout restriction: You can't watch national games (those on ESPN, Fox, MLB Network, TBS or Apple TV Plus) or your local team's games live. Instead, they become available about 90 minutes after the game ends." From CNET

I think it's safe to say now that this is the worst Cardinals team I've seen in my 65 years on earth. Hopefully sometime this season everyone from the GM down is fired.

And Wilson Contreras gets his arm broke on a backswing in yesterdays loss to the Mets. ugh....

 

[Bent77]

Well they won’t lose today! rain out

It wasn't a backswing. JD Martinez was swinging at a pitch, and Contreras reached out. A backswing would not have yielded as severe an injury (I saw it live on television - man, was he in pain).

AH right, I'm watching a breakdown of it right now. Ugh! Be warned, it's tough:



EDIT: Age-restricted? Youtube never ceases to amaze me.

That was horrible. I hate seeing stars go down with injuries like that.

 

[GregC]

Damn, that's terrible. I just looked at some former Cubs' stats the other day and Contreras was off to a strong start. Hope he heals up well and as promptly as possible.

 

[buldog5151bass]

Surgery. They are saying 6-8 weeks, which seems a tad optimistic to me.

 

[Bent77]

Yeah I don’t see 6-8 happening. But I didn’t stay at Holiday Inn last night either

 

[mrpackerguy]

Brewers started hot but are reverting to their mean
