Cobb Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 Watching LA-Atl right now, nothing feels like baseball quite like listening to Vin Scully call a game, I'm extremely jealous of you LA fans. I remember he used to the play by play for All Star Baseball 2000, with Chipper Jones on the cover, the greatest baseball game for the playstation.Just turned the game on and of course Russell Martin gets a ground-rule double. I swear something bad always happens when I turn the game on. Braves-Dodgers Gamethread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish7718 Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 They need to to add another pitcher considering they have three rookies in the starting rotation.One of the rookies is a strong candidate for rookie of the year. Once they get Penny back they are fine with those 4 and whoever they can get at 5. If anything they should go out and get a better middle infielder or reliever.

Phightins Posted June 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 Yeah. And Mike Stanton will make his debut for the Marlins on Tuesday, in all likelihood. Pretty big week for top prospects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teletopez Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 One thing I do like about the MLB All-Star game is the fact that the outcome has significance, and every team is represented by at least one of their players. What I don't like is that it's hard for the players to feel the significance of the game when it's only July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted June 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 I am not a fan of the All Star Game counting for World Series home field advantage, but yes, it does make the games more interesting and exciting. I do enjoy the All Star week festivities, and of course the actual game, but the fan voting process is very flawed (as it is in every sport).

fish7718 Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 If not the allstar game determining home field, what should? Better record? That's not fair either. Interleague play record? That's not fair either. There is no good way to determine home field advantage, at least this makes the ASG better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably get it if we had more discussion here. Outside of OTR, and the occasional conversation with a friend, I don't talk about baseball because most of my friends only follow football. I tried joining a baseball forum but it just seemed weird since I'm so use to posting here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
