The 2016 MLB thread

Yeah I get that a lot...those teams used to be in separate divisions: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_League_East


Atlanta used to be in the west?? Weird. Mets in the east.

Don't care, that was ages ago. The question remains.

I get the Braves link because of the Richmond Braves, but where do you get the Mets thing?

I'm a Phillies fan so I obviously can't handle this.

Yeah it's been awhile...first real baseball memory was 86 World Series run with the mets.

And your spot on with the Richmond braves and the fact tbs used to broadcast all the braves games as well.

Your really gonna hate that I'm starting to pull for the nats too.

The Nats might get back into the playoffs this year, if Harper can stay healthy, and if the overrated Zimmerman can stay on the field and if the pitching holds up, maybe they can do something.

Im becoming a huge Bryce Harper fan. I enjoyed the MVP season and totally agree with his thoughts coming into the season. He is on a roll

Max Scherzer is getting effing shelled by the cubs. Something aint right with him...hope that arm is good.

Deleted. I'm stupid.

Danny Espinosa is out of his effing mind

So if Harper's slump lasts the whole season, and next year he goes back to playing out of his mind, do you give him 400+? Because we know what he's capable of but he has yet to do it consistently over multiple seasons. If I'm the Nats, I'd probably be comfortable doing 350 or so over 10 years, but if he wants 400 or higher I'm letting him walk.
