Lorenzo Cain on getting a hit off Madison Bumgarner: "Yeah. It came a little late."


Ha. That's the same thing I thought

[Prison Bitch]

How about Salvy getting the wild pitch?


Anyway did Alex show up? I never saw him this week. Normally injured guys will just hang out. Sorry if aleady answered

Try watching a game every now and then

The fact you have to ask this question speaks volumes.

I watch the games. You watch the games and the ads. That says it all.

[Hootie]

I don't buy it. When I miss a game, I watch the archive on MLB.TV, if the Royals win ... And even then, I fast forward to highlights and generally don't watch the "fat."

The only way to watch baseball is watch it live and I highly doubt you rewatch entire games on DVR when you know the outcome

[Hootie]

And also, MLB.TV has no ads on the Xbox one. So, no, I watch the games with pauses between innings and no ads.

Wonder why. He isn't rehabbing and he walked fine onto the field Sun to get honored as an AS. Maybe being there 3x already and having kids at home made personal time more valuable. Alex hasn't ever been a big attention whore. Still surprised with all the teammates being there

[Hootie]

And even then, we're talking 2 minute commercial breaks. Around 20 minutes of commercial time. So I believe you approximately 0%. You don't really watch the games, you look at box scores and fangraphs and then comment like you have some idea. You're very easy to see through

[Hootie]

This isn't football, or even basketball. Baseball is slow, sure, but it has VERY little to do with commercial breaks. Good try, though.

He decided to stay in KC to rehab you ****ing wanker.

Actually, I apologize PB. Us idiots watching live 2:40 minute games don't really account for the surplus value of DVR'ing and being able to watch these games in 2:20 minutes instead. 20 minutes X 162 = enough surplus value to make three full meals and take two naps per season. I mean, sure, not watching live and already knowing the outcomes is a drawback, but those extra two naps and hamburger helper meals is a ton of surplus value in the Bitch household I'm sure
