Trevor Bauer is the Biggest Drama Queen Kunt in Basebsall

The best boogers come after breathing sawdust all day. Good and clumpy

Sand drywall all day.

You’ll change your mind.

You get those long ones, you can pull for six inches.

What body part does Machado need to debitchify so he can avoid pitching a fit when tagged by a third baseman?

His torn labia

Granite dust works good too if you ignore the silicosis risk

Stopping is giving up

Machado gave himself up after the takeout slide. So even he knew he made a dirty play.

If you keep running into the tag, it's easy. Backpedaling or stopping makes it harder to get the tag and throw to first. I've seen a guy just drop once, but sliding at somebody's ankles 30 feet from the base is some bush league bullshit.

Stopping or trying to stop and backpedal will only bring the fielder and his momentum more to first and possibly make the play easier. Get the fuck out of the base path if you don't want your ankles taken out. He didn't go out of his way to do it.

Stopping or backpedaling makes the fielder hold the ball longer, giving your guy time to get to first. 2B was dumb to run into the basepath to make the tag, because he makes the throw to first harder with Machado in his way. Somebody from the Padres said that that's how they're coached (lol), but Machado stopping and not running to second after he took that guy out tells me that's bullshit.

Meh. At the time that he slid, if he chose to stop and back pedal, he wasn't going to make it but a step or two at most. Maybe he holds onto it a half second longer. But the slide prevented him from throwing it at all. Even if the slide didnt' take him out, he still would have to bend down, come back up and throw, ruining any kinda of rythym or momentum in his throw. Making it just as effective as stopping or back pedaling. Not just Padres players saying thats how they're taught. Ty Kelly said the same thing.

If Manny didn’t whine, I’d like him.

No issue with dirty players here.
