Pete Rose met with Rob Manfred yesterday to discuss reinstatement.

Hopefully Manfred does the right thing and tells Rose to go fuck himself.

I agree, it will be a very sad day if he reinstates Pete Rose. The only way I want Pete Rose to be allowed into the Hall of Fame is after he dies. No reinstatement, just a something places in the Hall of Fame.

On a side note, Mets win and Washington loses and the Mets magic number is 1.

Rose is all over the Hall of Fame. He just doesn't have a creepy-ass plaque.

I disagree.

They can both go fuck themselves.

The 2015 National League East Division Champions, your New York Mets. Fantastic game, fantastic year. I'm still stunned that we're here but I'll take it.

As Howie Rose would say if he was Dieter: "Now is the time on Sprockets when we put it in the books."

I was listening to Howie on my iPhone in the car, in the 9th inning. I had to pick up my wife at the airport, she was returning from DC. When Wright was up to bat, Howie said it would be nice if David hit a home run here to put an explanation point on clinching the division and David did, it was pretty funny.

In-Laws are Mets fans, so they were pretty excited. Will be rough with the Dodgers in the first round, but good luck, and a nice season for them either way.

The Blue Jays clinch a playoff spot for the first time since 1993. Now, we need to get the AL East locked up.

The Mariners are reportedly down to two candidates for their GM job: Jerry Dipoto and Billy Eppler (Yankees assistant GM).

Seattle fans should be happy with either choice.

Palpabon is a looser, wish Nationals would just release him. Running his mouth off to Bryce Harper, not only the MVP but really the one who kept the Nationals in it. Jig your ass out of DC Jon.

He didn't just run his mouth, he actually got in a fight with him.

They're both bigmouths, Harper just usually backs it up with his play.

Papelbon literally tried to strangle Harper and Matt Williams still sent him out there to close out a tie game.

The idea of a relief pitcher who just got traded to a team talking shit and literally putting his hands around the neck of a player who's about a hundred times more valuable to that team, and the manager effectively saying "eh, whatever" is mind-boggling.

Papelbon is totally in the wrong here, and acting like a jackass, but lets not act like he hasn't been one of the better relief pitchers/closers of the past decade. He isn't some nobody.
 
Re: 2015 MLB Season - Can the Cubs FINALLY win the World Series? (No.)

Williams is a man that knows he is done. I love how Pap's giving shit to Harper over not running out a routine popup but feels completely justified putting Manny Machado on first base via fastball to the ribs because he had the audacity to pimp a home run off of Scherzer. Baseball is a hilarious game sometimes.

Good God, his 2006 season was absurd.

His fastball splitter combo back then was unreal. I know there is no such thing as the rising fastball, but his was the closest thing I've ever seen. That thing was explosive.
