A baseball mystery, who's signature is this? by notjustanymikein baseball

[–]NickyMcNikolai 1 point2 points ago

This makes me so god damned jealous.

I've never seen a ball move this much on a ball hit to center by baseballplayintyin baseball

"Luke Scott hits a fly ball to center and reaches second after Adam Jones misjudges it." - MLB.com

Misjudges it?... MISJUDGES IT?!

OK r/Baseball, don't be biased! Which MLB team has the best announcers? by FlandersIVin baseball

[–]NickyMcNikolai 0 points1 point ago

Outside of Vin (obviously), the Mets.
Gary Cohen, Ron Darling and Kieth Hernandez are incredible. I've learned so much about the game from these guys.

Which statistic do you consider most important in determining a player's value? by evertrue13in baseball

[–]NickyMcNikolai 0 points1 point ago

Most stats are flawed, though. That's why we have so many.

Kind of off topic but, does anybody remember those bobbleheads that came as a prize in cereal from forever ago?

Upvote for your name.

Ok all this "Josh Hamilton needs to be tested for steroids" BS is getting on my nerves by Rinnosukein baseball

[–]NickyMcNikolai 1 point2 points ago

I've said "Test him" in jest but I don't think anyone seriously believes he's taking steroids. It's difficult for ANYONE in the MLB to take steroids and get away with it, much less Josh Hamilton (who is watched like a fucking hawk everywhere he goes).

The five players you would have dinner with? by eegglesin baseball

[–]NickyMcNikolai 0 points1 point ago

RA Dickey, Darryl Strawberry (circa 1986), Ichiro Suzuki, Jeff Francoeur and Cal Ripken Jr.

Josh Hamilton is currently on pace to hit 83 homers this season. by BrokeCollegeDudein baseball

He probably could if he wasn't made of glass.

I'm in Cooperstown right now! by tstaff777in baseball

That was the first place my Grandfather took me when we went after I graduated from middle school. It was awesome.

EDIT: Not the brewery, obviously.

This year's "Stars and Stipes" caps are even more hideous than their predecessors. by shackilj2in baseball

[–]NickyMcNikolai 0 points1 point ago

I'm not an overly patriotic dude when it comes to my choice of clothing but I really liked the hats with the American flag patch on the side.

What fucking imbecile decided that wasn't good enough?

The Mets just swept the Phillies and are now 13-5 in the division. Why doesn't anyone notice us? by SlewmanGroupin baseball

[–]NickyMcNikolai 1 point2 points ago

Pitching will be the death of the 2012 Mets (especially that phantom 5th spot), barring a miracle.

But as of right now, I'm a very happy man watching each game like it's my last.

Who has been your team's "MVP" so far this season? by FallingFearlessin baseball

But also, "Captain" Kirk Nieuwenhuis.
