Yeup you’re right. Guys sure do come and go on MLB teams. Blake is pitching today against the Blue Jays. I’d like to see him go deep about 5-6 innings

 

[Togreenfeet]

Snell went 2 1/3 innings and just got pulled. He threw 63 pitches

 

[GB1]

not surprised. I'm a Houston Astros fan and Justin Verlander reached today 3,000 career strikeouts!

 

[Togreenfeet]

I saw that 3000 strikeouts! Brother that is flipping awesome!! I like Verlander too!

 

[GB1]

wouldn't surprise me if he makes the baseball hall of fame

 

[Togreenfeet]

Hey GB1, is this a 3 out of 5 series between A’s and Rays? First game tonight!!!

 

[Togreenfeet]

wouldn't surprise me if he makes the baseball hall of fame

Has to with 3000 K’s right? Haha

My wife friend who’s son played for Astro’s. He was a pitcher. I think he might be AAA now because of his shoulder surgeries. I’ll ask my wife for the name.

since i'm a baseball fan i collect baseball cards from any era mostly 1980's- today as a side hobby i enjoy it though. I saw were Pete Alosno broke the rookie HR record if he keeps going the way he does he may make the hall of. I'm glad i have his rookie card.

 

[Togreenfeet]

Wife said pitchers name is Haynes. Ever heard of him?

 

[Togreenfeet]

My son had the inaugural year of ALL the Florida Marlins.......... AND a signed Walter Payton rookie and signed Dan Marino rookie card........ lost every damn one!!!!!!!!!

 

[GB1]

no i haven't heard of him. how did he lose the cards

 

[Togreenfeet]

He was a kid......... the Walter Payton card, he took it to school. This only happens to us. I told him don’t take the stuff to school. He was showing it off on the bus, they were passing it back and forth and it blew out the window. When he got off the bus, he was green, blue, gray about to puke. We got in my vehicle and went searching. Never found it. As for the Marlins and Marino cards........ we think his first wife....

Somewhere around here, I have pictures of the 1996 Braves. They use to do Spring Training here. You know KLetscko, David Justice, Chipper Jones, Javier Lopez and those awesome 90’s Pitchers!!!!!! I never collected that stuff but when I was a kid 7-11 did baseball players on their large Slurpee cups. For $.26 cents you got a Large Slurpee on a baseball trading cup. I had Roberto Clemente, Johnny Bench, the Niekro boys, Pete Rose ( got robbed) and such oh yeah Catfish Hunter...... I played baseball from age 4 until my accident my junior year...... Because of Niekro, I threw a knuckleball. Because of Rose, I was a switch hitter. I hit harder left handed but can place the ball right handed! How about you?

 

[GB1]

I use to do baseball. quit it because parents yelling not so nice words and getting the face of the ump. My only sport now is MMA which i love

 

[Togreenfeet]

We do BJJ too that’s awesome!!! I have some bad stories about baseball when I was young. I’ll tell ya one. We had a big kid named Otto Lipert. His Uncle was fresh from the Nam missing a leg. So with his prosthetic leg he umped one of our games. The other side didn’t like his calls. Look I’m just telling it the way it was......... they were an all black team. Anyway after the game a big fight. Those parents put that man on the ground and ripped his prosthetic leg off and beat him with it! It was a horrible event. My mother tried to rush me into the car, but I kept seeing this one legged man being beat with his own leg! Cops came arrests everywhere......... and I can still see it.......45 years later...... that’s just one story

 

[Togreenfeet]

Wooooohoooooo we’re in!!!!! Rays win, Rays win!!!!!
