2016 MLB thread. THE CUBS HAVE BROKEN THE CURSE! Chicago Cubs are your 2016 World Series champions

Votto's not too lost, walking at a record pace with a .500 OBP.

he's the last guy I'm concerned about. BP has to continue to hit behind him, tho... that's what I'm more worried about.

Votto's lack of power has to be alarming, he's slugging .377 and didn't show much pop when he returned from injury last year. He's got a great approach at the plate and is a smart hitter giving himself a way better chance to produce those power numbers than a free swinger.

With all that being said, if he continues to get on base every other time, it doesn't matter what he slugs lol

It's not a lack of power, tho... It's a lack of pitches to hit. He crushed balls in ST.

Hammel is way up in the zone right now.

Did the Red Sox get new Home uniforms? or are they alternates?

They tweaked the home unis a bit so that it said "Boston" on the front instead of "Red Sox" due to everything that happened this week in the city.

And what did Big Papi do?

Lots of broken bats today.

 

[651akathepaul]

3 for 4 for Choo with 3 walks. That'll raise the OBP.

 

[wildkycat]

and 4 hits for Votto. (Not sure if it counts against the Marlins, tho)

 

[651akathepaul]

How can you not be a fan of Harper? The energy this guy brings is amazing...He can hit pretty well too.

 

[651akathepaul]

The fact that Philip Humber threw a perfect game against the Mariners sickens me.

This got really bad, really fast.

Also, if you're older than 10 you should leave your glove at home.

You should also not wear gear of a team not featured at the game you're at.

This is the single thing I hate most. Any sport, any venue.
