I know this is probably considered sacrilege, and it may partly be the alcohol talking.. But, assuming the braves do not make it to the post season, I will be rooting for Washington.

Without your flair, that statement in this subreddit makes perfect, obvious sense. :-)

I met Fister and (I assume) his girlfriend at Great Falls three weeks ago one Saturday morning. There was nobody else around near the canal when I ran into him. I recognized him, shook his hand and told him he was doing a good job. I was wearing an ATL hat. We laughed about it. He's a swell guy.

Handshake? Personally would have gone with a fist(er)bump.

I don't know what that is, but his girlfriend was present, so I don't think it would've been appropriate.

Lucky dog, take a selfie next time.

Did anyone else catch the "Fister, I barely even know 'er" sign on the MASN broadcast? I'm laughing my ass off over here haha!

I approve of the Expos cap.

Don't want to jinx anything, but it will be if a certain team concludes the game a certain way.

This is way off topic but I just saw this on Twitter. Giancarlo Stanton has already tied Uggla's 154 homers with the Marlins. The franchise record. This fucking guy isn't even 25 yet.

And to think I remember when he was just a young kid named "Mike"...

One Mike Stanton in the NL East was enough.

Every time the Nats score first, an angel gets its wings.

Or something like that.

Oh. My. God.

I just realized:

###Clip & Save is back in action.

Anyone else have their t-shirt from 2010?

Yup.

That was more Clippard and Capps

1
flippityfloppityflooPresident•

Good point. Perhaps this is Clip & Save: The Mound Strikes Back

1
barakveshCharlie Slowes•

Clip got interviewed about that a few years ago and explicitly said that it went back to the season we had Matt Capps.

I definitely edited my comment before you replied ;)

Joe West is behind the plate. Someone needs to go tell him that what Walden does is a balk if what Barrett does is.
