The Giants/Pirates series was the best series I've watched in years. The Giants' kids are playing fantastic, and with a lot of confidence. Chapman is an absolute stud. Soler is finding his stroke. Wade cannot get out. And just seeing some fight and emotion out of the Giants is a sight for sore eyes. If we can keep up the batting, watch out, because the pitching is going to be there. I know its 2 out of 3 against the Pirates in May, but it cannot be overstated how huge this was for our season.
I think the funniest thing about the " they're only beating under 500 teams" for the Phillies is the fact that people have no problem calling the dodgers the best team in baseball and they've also had an almost equal "easy" schedule. The fact of the matter is the majority of the teams in baseball are under 500 right now and good teams beat bad teams
They go under. 500 after getting swept by the Phillies. And somehow that makes the Phillies not good I guess. 😂 And everyone just going to ignore that this team has been WS contenders repeatedly, but I guess they weren't good then either. People are crazy.
Jose Ramirez? You mean the hottest player in the league? Playing for the team with the best record?? That type of stuff doesn’t get talked about here man have you seen what the royals are doing!?? Time to keep shoving it down their throats till they acknowledge us.
Driving past the Gateway Arch on my way into work will never be the same. Fun fact, the Arch and Busch Stadium are less than half a mile from each other. All of Downtown STL is very close together. #goCards
Trev always trolling guards. Still hurting from that sweep on the twins obviously Don't let Mason Miller season distract you from Emmanuel Clase absolutely legendary start to this season Edit. He gave David Fry love so i take it back. Thanks Trev

As a bucs fan it's frustrating but we gotta remember this is Cruz first full season and we are trying to find ourselves as a somewhat young team. But some shit needs to change, and the bullpen needs to wake up because we'd be over .500 if we didn't blow half these games
Rangers had to stay very healthy to tread water with all the people that came into the season hurt. The opposite has happened and we keep having to call up poor Leiter to get unconsensually touched up. Hope they don’t do that anymore
@@SouthPhilaMilla definitely slumping. I think they’ll snap back into shape soon though. Jung coming back will be a big boost to the lineup whenever that happens
As a pirates fan my perspective on Cruz is that while he's still not performing to the level I believe he's capable of, he's doing well enough for me to give him some more time to shake off his lost season. Especially because I believe that the team has much more pressing issues to deal with. As for Skenes, anyone who tries to say he's been anything less than exceptional so far is a bandwagon baseball fan who has no idea how the sport really works
If Craig Kimbrel didn't completely sell against the diamondbacks the Phillies may have went to WS twice in the row. They have a history of being good at this point. Watch out for them this year.
@@CADClicker Not a cope when it's a fact. A cope is a reach. The Phillies were super hot and Kimbrel choking is what did them in. So it's not a cope or a reach.
@@zachzent8287sure, but the Phillies only needed to win one game.... And Kimbrel lost them two in a row. They started swinging in the dirt, sure, but they never would have gotten to that point if it wasn't for Kimbrel.
Wasn’t that his first time in wrigley? Give him a break, wind here is pretty brutal this time of year. Can fool first timers real easy. Your team also had 10 innings to bury the Cubs and couldn’t get the job done, so don’t blame him for what is a team effort.
Pirates fan here. Cruz’s defense is terrible. Well below average. However, his ability to change a game makes him worth playing everyday.. maybe? It’s a hard one.
As a Giants fan, I am happy Joey Bart is able to get another shot with the Pirates and is doing well. I think he just needed a change of scenery, and wishing him success. (Just please don’t hit any more grand slams against the Giants, you got your fill 😂)
So, most likely the 1st ro 2nd gets into a run down and the runner from 3rd scores. Play only work in a last out of the game, runner on third doesn't matter situation, very cool play, bur equally low probability of being useful.
after his complete game shutout earlier this season, ranger suarez was asked if he ever disagreed with JT's calls and ranger said that no he just threw whatever pitch JT called for without questioning it, given JT's experience, so Im inclined to hop on board jake's catcher theory
Realmuto has a major factor in the pitcher success, but it only works because the pitchers like Suarez have great command of all their pitches. Without that it's hard for anyone to call the game... pitcher, catcher, or managers.
@@JustSomeGuy009 well obviously yes, still interesting to get glimpses of the level of impact a good catcher can have on pitching even at the major league level
@@Khitiara_ Yeah I recently found out how the newer catchers drop their glove at the start of the pitch, and catch the ball on an upward swing, so the umpire can't tell how far off from the original spot the ball was supposed to be. It makes pitches just out of the zone seem more like strikes, whereas the old way, with the glove up, would move slightly to catch the ball, so when they try to bring it back towards the zone, its way more obvious to the ump. Realmuto is one of the best at doing this.
Im hoping the padres trade for a 1b like alonso or rizzo or goldschmidt. It would allow jake to go back to his natural position at 2nd and bring the crone zone back
I told Ranger fans last year that their players were having career years and that it wouldn’t sustainable. They got hot other teams got cold and they won a Chip, congrats, lucky yes, but grats. Now this year you’re seeing unfold before you. They’re not good they just had career years last year. Also many Ranger fans told us they were going back to back due to having lieter, Carter’s and Langford…. Well two of them looking like overhyped minor leaguers and the other is doing a Jeremy Pena.
This is a bad take. Not sure how the rangers got lucky losing the division on the last day and then having to win all those road games. The astros were not cold and the DBacks were red hot going into the world series. This year has been a mix of injuries and underperformance. Did players overperform last year? duh, every team needs that to win the world series. Also, last year pretty much every player except Semien and the backups took a turn on the IL. Shit is hard. Its been about 50 games and we're hungover and having a slow start. It's way too early to be playing the "toldya so" card..
@jlatigo the astros were historically ass at home all 2023 maybe it was unlucky that they took the division last minute since It gave them 4 home games
@@jlatigo how convenient that you left off a cold Rays team, and a cold orioles team who sat for almost a week. As far as the rest of your comment, well it’s a very bad take, do better next time.
Orioles will be fine. They have played down to their competition this year with the bad teams. People forget the O’s took 3 out of 4 from the Yankees literally 2-3 weeks ago. Just a little slump it happens

Depends on the sport. No American has ever said “best in the world” about one of our soccer teams, because that would clearly be insane. But football or baseball? Sure, why not. Our league is where the best of the best come to play. It makes sense

Rangers have an entire staff on the IL right now and a bad bullpen. Not looking great
An entire rotation, and a handful of relievers, on the IL. Also half the starting lineup. The fact that they're hanging on around .500 is shocking.
And the players that aren’t on the IL aren’t hitting up to the back of their baseball card. It’s been a brutal start of the season, .500 ball is a win
