Wow. Great stuff. Knew he was good at framing but didn't realize that good. Does beg the question though, is a frame the baseball equivalent of a flop?

Good lord Zeke has got to figure it out. He is consistently swinging at total garbage. Really frustrating to watch.

I wonder if a team with this many all-stars has ever missed the playoffs.

Rangers can make history with five All-Star starters

Quote:

1939 New York Yankees
ASG starters: Red Rolfe, George Selkirk, Joe Gordon, Bill Dickey, Joe DiMaggio

Season result: 106-45-1, won World Series

Quote:

1956 Cincinnati Redlegs
ASG starters: Roy McMillan, Frank Robinson, Johnny Temple, Ed Bailey, Gus Bell

Season result: 91-63-1, no postseason (third in NL)

Quote:

1957 Cincinnati Redlegs
ASG starters: Roy McMillan, Frank Robinson, Johnny Temple, Ed Bailey, Don Hoak

Season result: 80-74, no postseason (fourth in NL)

Quote:

1976 Cincinnati Reds
ASG starters: Joe Morgan, Pete Rose, Dave Concepcion, George Foster, Johnny Bench

Season result: 102-60, won World Series

Quote:

The 1976 Reds are still the only team since the NLCS/ALCS were created in 1969 to finish a postseason undefeated.

That '76 Reds team was something else.

3 of the 4 were Cincy.

'56 & '57... back-to-back seasons and neither made the playoffs.

This should absolutely be overturned based on the Chicago/Jonah debacle.

Catcher violation. Call it
Proposition Joe

That seems pretty textbook blocking the plate to me, which means it wont be.

And is Dave Valle drunk?

Proposition Joe

Eh... its blocking the plate by rule, but they've absolutely changed how they are applying it after we got hosed.

Is 2022 Nate Lowe back for the 2nd half? If so this team will win the division going away.

I think they were just ruling out the purpose of the replay. Wasn't about if he touched the plate/tagged…it was about if there was a block at the plate.

Dave Valle eating hot dogs and failing on how to pay for them, speaking with a weird accent, and locking in on the tag vs the violation. He's terrible

Blocking the plate has become the new targeting

Agreed. Just give us Raymond and Nitkowski. No idea what the rangers are doing with their broadcast.

Raymond is terrible but I'd take him over Valle.

Get rid of Emily too. She's good for at least one screwup a night

He's trying to make his native NY accent sound more southern given the audience, and it ends up this really cheesy fake voice that sounds like an old guy trying to be cool. Strange.
