Baseball Chat Quips

Quips, insights, retorts and snark - and even some wisdom - from baseball chats.

@JomboyMedia I'm 72 years old and a lifelong baseball fan.
This is not a rule.
This cap angle is not disrespecting the game.
This is Umpire Show. That's what's disgraceful.

@Jomboy_ Great job, Jimmy! Now I have a big brain.

@ZachZaidman Tell Pat to look anywhere that Giants players are alphabetized by last name. It will be Lee, not Hoo. (It's really annoying!)

@DistrictOnDeck @DCBerk Unless you mean covering all the windows, I think you mean "shudder" in the header.

@MLBONFAX @court_with_a_K @redturn2 Instead of some glib comment, do some actual research.
Justin Turner suggests a home run derby to decide tie games - Los Angeles Times

@MLBPipeline @Cubs @SBCubs Too bad the announcer misnamed him.

@extravagas @WNBA Because every other WNBA player makes every shot.

@BN_Bulls Matas is more muscular from eating eggs?

[Jesse Rogers @JesseRogersESPN]

Ok, this is something: Michael Busch is the 3rd Cubs player with a 3-HR game against the Cardinals. All 3 did it on Independence Day: Moises Alou on July 4, 2003 and Hank Leiber on July 4, 1939. C'mon.

@PhotobombChamp @MLB @Mets The camera operator was simply following Castellanos. For most OFers that makes sense.

[Baseball Chat Quips @bballchatquips]

@SetupManKyle Are the whispered "I love you"s to Ben or Moises? 😉

[Baseball Chat Quips @bballchatquips]

@BN_Blackhawks @BulldogsOHL If you shoot horizontal instead of vertical you can get more of the play in the shot.

How do you keep Jack Dunn, Oliver Dunn, Blake Dunn, and Lucas Dunn straight?
@CarlosACollazo: As far as keeping the various Dunns straight, their first names are really helpful with that.

[Bleacher Nation @BleacherNation]

Cole: I ... opt ... OUT!

Yankees: Kay.

Cole: ... aren't you ... don't you want to ... say something? Or do something?

Yankees: Nah. It's cool.

Cole: I opt in.

Where would you rank Garrett Crochet if he were a free agent this offseason?
@keithlaw: You can't, though. It's maybe not apples to oranges, but it's Grannysmiths to Fujis.

If the White Sox deal Crochet what reason would I have to go to a ballgame there?
Darragh McDonald:Well, who's on the other team?

[Baseball Chat Quips @bballchatquips]

10-29-24 @mlbtraderumors
Who do you think is the biggest name traded this offseason?
Darragh Mcdonald: Crochet.
Yastrzemski will be literally the biggest name traded, however.
