FiddySicks Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 The Giants won their division in 10 and 12. Not exactly the backdoor. In general I'd reserve my disdain for the powerhouse regular season teams that collapse in the postseason.Oh, you mean like the Dodgers?

CubsFanBudMan Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The Cubs will disappoint.Depends on your expectations.Well fate (or Back to the Future 2) has them as contenders this year!I don't see any Gators in MLB or time machines run on garbage, hoverboards, Pepsi Perfect... and the USA Today logo is a circle. Plus, the World Series is still best of 7 games, not 9.And there's no way it ends by Oct. 22. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2001mark Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 USA Today needs to change its logo fastI'd bet money they do for that date... or at least offer it as a commemorative alternate. @2001mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBubba Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 So the Jays got new turf this year.Old:New:It apparently feels (and looks) more like actual grass, though I suppose thin green-coloured strands of plastic are still thin green-coloured strands of plastic. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
__taylorc Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I'm excited to see how my Tigers will do. We got a nice bat with Cespedes and we got a nice young arm but we lose Scherzer (I wasn't too upset when I heard he signed with the Nats) and Porcello but the Tigers still have a Top 3 pitching rotation with Verlander, Price and Sanchez. But we didn't do much to help our biggest problem from last year.....OUR BULLPEN! I hope Nathan, Chamberlain, and Soria can get there s*** together but only time will tell.

Still MIGHTY Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 They had the best record in all of baseball last year. They still have the best player in all of baseball. It's not some gargantuan leap in logic to think they have a shot at winning the World Series. More so than the other 12/1 Cubs. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I thought the Skydome was moving to grass. Or is that next year? Or never?Anyways, I kind of like that one last stadium is still hanging on to the island bases of my youth with white lines marking the outline of the infield for infield fly purposes.

More so than the other 12/1 Cubs.Exactly.Also, while I think the Cubs will be much better this season, I don't see what made them a sudden trendy pick for the World Series. My guess is they're still at least a year (probably two) from serious contention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plan is to get grass by Opening Day 2018. Because the Dome was designed to be a multipurpose facility with turf and turf only, they have some key hurdles to overcome regarding irrigation, drainage, lighting, humidifying, etc. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.

As for dirt, the Argos have one more season to go... then they Jays can have the building to themselves all summer long.I thought the Skydome was moving to grass. Or is that next year?

ConcreteCharlie Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Question: Are home plate collisions still completely outlawed? When I read the rule, I thought it said something along the lines of if the catcher has the ball and is in your way, you can blow him up. As long as he has the ball, and you don't go out of your way to initiate contact you can do that. Can anybody clarify? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
