I do some dumb videos for fun while caring a little too much about baseball and video games.

Back in April my friend @epicsheep.bsky.social decided to start a re-watch of our favorite show Community. The only caveat was that after each episode we are going to watch whatever was referenced in that episode. Here will be a thread of that journey.

No joke I thought Roberts was gonna be cute the way he likes to be and just let Kershaw give it the college try in the 9th to send them to the WS. Stunned he thought better

Understood the assignment. Love him.

I do not give a shit about Mark Walter or Stan Kasten (complimentary) right now.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 2h

Hoping the week off does Vesia some good and he is back at 94

Wait I learned this, I believe it would actually be juutsuki-sama. Pronounced differently.

holy shit what an insane double play. Heads up play by Dumper to smother it before it became foul.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

I remember making this at some point.

Would buy the shit out of a Wario Naylor amiibo or something.

Boo!-per Lund @cooperlund.online · 1d

You know, Nintendo still has a 10% stake in the Mariners. I bet you could make some very cool Wario-themed Josh Naylor merchandise.

The Glasnow game was always going to be the one that made me the most nervous, mainly because he doesn't really go deep like Yama and Snell can. With the bullpen worries it made it even more dubious. But credit to the bullpen for putting up zeros and the left side of the defense keeping them in it.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

He did go home, that's how he scored the run. Come on Mike be better.

Mike Petriello @mikepetriello.bsky.social · 1d

Not sure Josh Naylor is going to be allowed to go home.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

Velo down still and couldn't really locate was still lingering from his last time out. So I still think the 3 innings still lingering.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

Wow, look at that #reliableroki at it again.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

It was when people were saying he should move back because it was hurting his bat, even though what hurt his bat was almost dying at the start of the season.

“We don’t talk enough about [subject we talk a lot about]” but Mookie Betts transitioning to short seamlessly is something we don’t talk enough about

I feel like going to Sasaki is such a Dave thing and not analytics thing. This has his "he's my guy now" stink all over it.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

This is my thought, would rather not have Dave over complicate this but I feel like he will.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

If Banda is this again I feel so much better.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

Same thoughts, or I might go Worbo. I'd stay away from Sasaki is the point.

Daniel Brim @dbrim.com · 1d

Just have Sheehan pitch the ninth

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

Assuming they want sheehan in a clean inning and take him as long as you can.

Chad Moriyama @chadmoriyama.bsky.social · 1d

Treinen is warming, but I'd go Sheehan for as long as he can take you.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

He is just like me frfr

Zohran didn’t shave his mustache properly and it’s driving me nuts

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

Only time I never felt like I was gonna throw up was in 2020 when they were down 3-1 cause it felt over.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

I looked this up, how does he have a like 74% whiff rate if no one is chasing.

Mike Petriello @mikepetriello.bsky.social · 1d

People keep asking how this is possible, given that Glasnow is such a good pitcher, and it's basically that Glasnow is such a vertical pitcher. That is, everything's up-and-down, not a lot that breaks horizontal.

That means most of his chase is low. *Nothing* arm-side. Compare to Snell, YY.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

Really putting multiple looks at a reliever in series to the test here.

Curt Hogg @cyrthogg.bsky.social · 1d

Aaron Ashby starts tonight for the Brewers. He’s pitched in every playoff game but one, and gets the ball again.

Ubermanofsteel @ubermanofsteel.bsky.social · 1d

I’m stupid so I don’t see how a salary cap stops deferred money.
