    Baseball in this age is garbage

    I am pretty good winner on bases this year, but I hate even watching games nowadays. Managers are too reliant on shitty bullpens, often refusing to let their starters get deep in games. Nobody seems to move runners over anymore, everyone is in search of the big inning. All the players want to pad their stats, and could give two shits about moving a runner from second to third when their is no outs. Bases suck now.

    And no one works the count now either because there is no need. They know managers will yank the starter anyway. It was nice watching the way the Twins took pitches against Greinke last night. At least somebody knows what they are doing.

    Hey, this is April! Don't expect pitchers to go deep in this period.
    I love fading weak-bullpen teams when they take the lead. Cashed +3300, +2500 odds this way

    i couldn't agree more...it's frustrating when i see games being over managed:

    RP comes in. strikes out first 2 batters. lefty comes to bat. OHNOE, time for the left-hand specialist to come in. he then proceeds to walk the batter, and opens the inning up.
