That 13th inning rule is the stupidest thing I've ever seen. That's why a lot of people don't take this tournament seriously.

I doubt thats the reason since i doubt anybody even knows that rule

You misinterpreted my comment. I mean they see this tourney as amateur hour. And that rule is a perfect example.

I don't take it seriously because Willie ####ing Bloomquist is starting and Torre bunts everytime the ### #### US gets a guy on first.

I was just bustin balls on your comment. I agree that rule is ######ed.

God I hate ####### Dominicans.

 

[Raider Nation]

Stanton blows. He's your man if you need a solo shot when Florida is down 8-1 in the 8th inning in June.

 

[shadyridr]

Hosmer has a really looooooooong swing

 

[Raider Nation]

God I hate ####### Dominicans.

I wonder how this exact team would fare if you plopped them into the AL Central.

 

[shadyridr]

These guys take this a little too seriously. They gotta do a song and dance after every out.

Theyd have the worst pitching in baseball and the best lineup. Their pitching is so bad i doubt theyd be .500. Theyd be better than the astros though

 

[Raider Nation]

I don't think the glove over the mouth is necessary. I doubt the Dominicans are going to read American lips.

 

[shadyridr]

Lmfao at that strike to aybar

 

[Raider Nation]

LOL @ that strike call.

 

[Premier]

that was 3 feet off the plate

 

[Raider Nation]

Eric Gregg is your ump tonight.

 

[Raider Nation]

 

[shadyridr]

Wtf is this womens softball? Stay in the ####in dugout

 

[Raider Nation]

Well, at least Wright was there to cheer his teammates on!

 

[shadyridr]

We get it guys. This is not spring training baseball. Jesus enough already

 

[shadyridr]

Hey vasgersian. #### you traitor

 

[Premier]

So who is Puerto Rico starting tomorrow?

 

[Raider Nation]

If this was a league game, no way Reyes gets to swing the bat there.

Yep i forgot tejada was up next. Another great move by torre

 

[shadyridr]

I was just looking at the schedule. Why does tomorrows winner play tonights winner again on saturday? Makes no sense

 

[Premier]

Pretty excited to have Rodney on my side again this year

 

[Good Posting Judge]

For seeding purposes.

 

[shadyridr]

For seeding purposes.

So DR didnt just win this pool? I guess. Still seems kind of a watse

 

[Raider Nation]

Baseball, big deal. Let's see the Dominicans beat us at chess. Or binge drinking.

Pretty much anything except baseball and switchblade-fighting, I think we've got them.

And horn blowing

 

[prosopis]

Tough loss

Bloomquist does not suck

 

[scoobus]

Bloomquist does not suck

He's just not a good hitter. Or fielder. Or baserunner.

 

[Smack Tripper]

Kimbtel is the the right handed billy wager. Would not trust this guy in a big game for a moment

 

[TobiasFunke]

Kimbtel is the the right handed billy wager. Would not trust this guy in a big game for a moment

Kimbrel's career September/October numbers: 0.93 WHIP, 5.07 K.BB (17.1 K/9), slash line against is .157/.250/.205. Braves were in the playoff race all three seasons of his career.Yeah, he sucked in Game 162 in 2011 and last night's game. And Mariano Rivera sucked in his only World Series Game 7 appearance and his blown save in Game 4 of the 2004 ALCS triggered the worst postseason collapse in baseball history. Also, I've been away from the boards for a while- I trust there's been some quality #####ing about the bunting and the batting order?

 

[Mr. Pickles]

I don't take it seriously because Willie ####ing Bloomquist is starting and Torre bunts everytime the ### #### US gets a guy on first.

These are valid complaints.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Bloomquist does not suck

He has no business being on this team.

 

[Premier]

Zobrist at third tonight.

CapellaKnows

 

[rodg12]

Zobrist at third tonight. CapellaKnows

 

[Raider Nation]

It seems the Puerto Ricans love their air horns as well.

 

[shadyridr]

We have one hit!

 

[shadyridr]

Its so much easier to get back into a one run game than get back into a four run game

 

[shadyridr]

Another horrible strike call

 

[Raider Nation]

Let's see how the umps can F us this time....

 

[Raider Nation]

Stanton blows. He's your man if you need a solo shot when Florida is down 8-1 in the 8th inning in June.

 

[shadyridr]

Stanton is dreadful

 

[shadyridr]

That guy threw stanton nothing but meatballs

 

[Raider Nation]

I'm glad Cain, Kershaw, Verlander, Price and Weaver couldn't be bothered to suit up for their country.

Would it have mattered? Other than a few games the offense blew. 3 runs against the #### pitching staff they faced today?

What about Fielder and Trout?

I don't know what to tell you. The players don't care.
