    Another awesome set of vids why watching pitchers batting is the best, future big leaguer Shohei Otani homering in 5 consecutive games played in NPB (fan-interference.com/2016/05/16/2nd-update-shohei-…), mostly batting in the 5th or 6th spot when it comes to the Central League (no DH) when he starts, also serves as position player/DH three times a week this regular season. His max fastball velocity is now recorded at 163kph, passing his previous fastball velocity mark of 161kph.

    Trade Cutch this offseason for young pitching, a few TOP pitching prospects. Call up Meadows, move Marte in to CF. The Pirates would not miss a beat and would add to their scary future rotation of Cole/Tallion/Glasnow. They’re building a dynasty.

      That’s funny. Guess a dynasty should trade their best player and the heart of the team

      Going to be tough to be a dynasty while always looking up at the Cubs for the next 10 years in the standings
