Purists may hate this, but as somone who has played and coached baseball for 40+ years I fucking love this.  Baseball is too stiff and boring and I love the energy of Bautista's bravado.  Not to say he might get one in the ear, but I love this brand of cocky baseball.

Purists? Or do you mean "old white guys who can't stand to see the game change"? Maybe they're the same thing.

MLB is the ultimate "no fun league". You've got a bit of a problem when your young stars are on record saying they'd like the game to be more fun.

I've always thought it strange that you're allowed to celebrate personal success in pretty outlandish ways in every other league but baseball. Doesn't mean I love the sport any less. But it is weird.

I feel like the nfl is no fun league. Nfl ratings are tanking cause the league is trying to suck the personality out of people.

As for the bat flips, I love it. Bautista is a beast. I did like the Odor punch not because I have anything against Bautista but because it's good to see baseball players show fire.

Sadly though I think the "summer of Cleveland" ends in here.  Too many injuries for Cleveland to overcome so I'm calling Boston in four.  Our once dominant starting pitching has been gutted so now we're left with starting Trevor Bauer in game #1.  Not good.

Hope to be wrong but......

But rooting for Rangers today.  Longstanding tie to Texas as I caught a connecting flight out of DFW airport about 20 years ago. 

Also, Founders IPA FOR THE meh.
