Oh, come on. The commenter appears completely unaware that Klubber’s been one of the best pitchers in baseball for 3 years, and implies he got by on a career day and lucky breaks. The rebuttal (from, like, everyone responding) is justified and not a “nitpick.”

I mean, they DID ride Jansen pretty hard. But that’s different from the three-headed monster of the Indians, so rec granted.

OS is just like any swill beer, of course. I’m no snob. That said...Two Hearted....Strong move. Love it.

Mostly whatever someone puts in front of me and takes the pain away every April/May, so something with at least 6% alcohol.

It’s befitting of his Pedigree.

I have to say Trey Parker and Matt Stone should give some of the credit back though. If they produced Parkers and Reillys on a one-to-one ratio I could live with that deal.

That it bugs you that sports fans have random irrational hate for YOUR team is reminiscent of some Cards’ fans’ obnoxious “how can you possibly hate us?” sentiment. Just smile, flip a double bird and go back to cramming Old Style down your suck hole while watching your insanely talented and — aside from your…

How much intra-city switching is there in soccer? I know there’s more teams sharing cities so that plus relegation and differing competition levels might change dynamics; in the US of course going across the battle line for the city rival is a mortal sin punishable by death on BOTH sides of the line. I’m sure it is…

Everything you say is correct and indicates you to be a good fan. I was mostly just busting your balls. (I’m a Cards fan...it’s all I can do this October.) He’s a very fun and very good player and I would not begrudge a fan’s sports-erection for him for a second.

Yeah, I made the joke pretty light-hearted so, yeah, no shit Re: the differences.

Haha, saw this after I posted. But yeah. Nonclutch choke-artist rips always send me STRAIGHT to baseballreference.

Career: .262/.346/.415
2 out, RISP: .259/.397./402
Late & Close: .259/.359/.420, 19 HR in 650 PA (about a season worth)

A super-talented Caribbean with some flair who helped lead the Cubs to within a win of a WS berth? Nah, never.

Arguably, too correctly.

This seems probable. Even at his worst Heyward is a solid professional hitter. As a Cards fan I didn’t HATE not paying THAT much for him, but at the same time, no. 2016 Heyward is not real Heyward.

SERIOUSLY THIS GUY IS ON MY FANTASY TEAM AND I NEED TO KNOW IF I CAN DROP HIM I mean I’m with the NFL tell me more.

That’s certainly the odd-ball element. Maybe he’s the guy who switches coke for diet coke and get’s his rocks off over people obliviously not knowing they got the wrong one.

You’re an athlete too? STRASBURG IS THAT YOU???

Except...when you’re this guy at least, you can tell a couple beat reporters, the team flak and fix a Wikipedia article and it all goes away. 

And adding ph...that’s some truly basic shit.
