I will eat a hat if this deal is legit.

EDIT: Or not, I have no clue

 

Lol he has 5 followers. I'm gonna go with bullshit.

 

Hoskins is in the hr derby? what?

 

yes

 

I suspect that a lot of players declined to compete.

 

haha ya think?

 

“What I like about this year’s derby is that it’s different guys than in years past.” Yeah, only Harper has star power here. The HR Derby isn’t what it used to be.

 

disagree, Javy is a star

 

Rhys did good though in the first

 

Welp

 

doesnt mean he cant win. like...my point isn't that Hoskins can't hit hr's. Just questioning how a guy that isnt in the 50 in homers in the league, not a household name, is in this all-star home run showcase.

 

It's been the trend of a lot of the top stars to decline it. Shit, just a few weeks ago I read an article about an active petition (or something like that) to have Ichiro in it which ya know, lol.

 

i do love our formerly large adult son kyle schwarber

 

Was really hoping for the Bam-Bam/Baez final.

Also the Sox announcer is doing the ESPN news stream and he’s actually p good if anyone checks that’s out. Night and day from Hawk lol

 

Jason Benetti is so good. The Sox would be so lucky if he becomes the voice of the team for the next 20-30 years

 

Freddie not doing so hot. At least they’re talking him up a bunch tho.

Edit: 12 is respectable.

Fuck you, Bruce Hooper

 

Remember when this was the old format and they'd probably still be on the 3rd batter lol

 

Finally some distances

 

I want Trout and Ohtani next year

 

Bill Nye telling people not to slide into first base lol

 

Still hate the derby format

 

Lol nah this format rules

 

This is the best HR derby in a while.

 

schwaaaaaaaaaaaarber
