I’m fighting tonight for everyone who’s tired of Barstool Sports being on the internet

Luis Guillorme drew a 22-pitch walk in the 5th inning. Relive the entire at-bat right here 😤 😤 😤 pic.twitter.com/cS57po7ulf

i was there

watching on tv i mean

he's the guy that casually caught the flying bat a couple years ago

he rules

That’s nuts. Was that a fluke, or is this guy some quick-hands god?!

he is in fact a quick-hands god

i will give you this heavily cardinals-centered answer: that was jordan hicks' first appearance since 2019, when he had tommy john. the weird thing with him, his whole career, is that he doesn't have a high strikeout %, despite a 104 mph fastball and a wicker slider that's even better. it is bizarre. i am not a pitching expert or stats pro, i have no idea why this happens. but he has always been a pitcher that quickly gets to 2 strikes and then induces weak contact. he's awesome. i love him. he's great. but of all pitchers to have a 22-pitch walk, it's him

and it's pretty amazing that the average MLB player can at least make consistent contact on 104 mph

every time i watch him pitch, it's like a wholesome reminder that "these guys are good"

that is cardinals-centric, but also i feel like it might be more relevant than this 80 wRC+ rookie's contact skillz, that's right, sick BURN on the mets, i am officially RE-IGNITING the CARDINALS-METS RIVALRY, and i guarantee 100% cardinal victories this season, starting now, in spring training, right now

the METS do DRUGS

and the mid-80s cardinals do NOT do DRUGS!

luis guillorme is, by every measure for years on end, a defensive genius. also he caught that bat out of fucking mid-air.

dude would be a fucking folk hero in pittsburgh but instead he'll be quad-a fodder in syracuse

the mid-80s cardinals do NOT do DRUGS!

Baseball fans need to watch more cricket and appreciate baseball's relative brevity

No thanks

T20 is basically the length of a baseball game, no?

“Remember Some guys” is a low level sports meme

Guess it hasnt made it to the old country yet

i have to admit, i had totally forgotten about puig and russell, and thought was A. Gonzalez had long stopped playing

feel like a Guy I Remember fairly often is Wilin Rosario, on account of i thought he was gonna be the next great hitting catcher at one point lol

Bob Melvin said he watches Friends reruns after losses. Seen every episode. So I had to ask: did Ross cheat on Rachel, or were they on a break?

"Don't even get me started on that," he said. "I do have some ideas on that but I'm not going there. That's a loaded question, Steve."

Ha ha!

Chipper Jones raw dogged every Hooters waitress between Chattanooga and Tampa but scared of the jab? Make it make sense. Still love the guy but the math ain’t math-ing there!

as soon as i read the first tweet i knew what the second would be

I'm sure Aaron Judge is reaching for his phone as I type.

Aaron judge I am getting ready for you let's see if you can hit a baseball as far as I can hit a softball I doubt that very much let me know when you're ready we'll do the competition for charity pic.twitter.com/riWXN8Z878

(Is punctuation considered bad form on Twitter, or is it that you're wasting precious character count? That tweet reminds me of 10,000 student journal entries I marked.)

real ballers don’t need punctuation

the lack of punctuation is just part of what makes him a Tru Poster

It's possible he was influenced by Ulysses.

if you're not for canseco, you are against canseco. and he thrives on competition, so watch out

I TROLLED JOSE CANSECO

His strikeout vs me this year shouldn’t count

When I asked Bob Feller about a rookie Stephen Strasburg, he said, “Call me when he wins his 100th game.”

When Strasburg won his 100th game, Feller was dead.

Just appreciate fun/interesting things as they happen, I think is the point. https://t.co/Ze4DF6bZRE

Robinson Canó is currently batting .447 with a 1.153 OPS in the Mexican Baseball League. This is clearly an elite baseball player in his prime. The Twins could use help at second base. Why haven't they signed him yet?

Is Major League Baseball blackballing Canó? pic.twitter.com/mLCdI62rlu
