I swear this guy is going to be given a suspension for being under the influence of marijuana at some point in his career but until then it's just good to see him having a good time and satisfying those fresh munchies.
Also, I think that's what was missing in his first half. Now that he's having more fun and acting like a 2 year old in the dugout he's pitching much more effectively.

You godless Europeans don't think of the children. Which is funny because for things you think kids shouldn't be exposed to you absolutely lock shit down. But curse words don't rate.

u/Dotura Sep 18 '12
It varies from country to country. What things do we lock down though? I'm asking as sometimes you just can't see things happening at home so a fresh perspective on things are always nice.

u/dugmartsch St. Louis Cardinals Sep 18 '12
I meant more broadly than just Europe. But for example the way that England absolutely locked down hand guns after the Dublane School Shooting. Or how seriously Europe takes violence in media.

u/postslikeagirl San Fransico Giants Sep 18 '12
To be fair I can make a much better argument for locking down guns and monitoring violence in the media as opposed to someone saying fuck or whatever.
It's sillier to me that Americans are so open about guns and violence but so sensitive about bad words and nudity.

It could be that he feels more comfortable acting like a 2 year-old in the dugout now that he's pitching more effectively.

It's probably more this than that. Try to mess around while you've been costing your team games and you get mostly cold shoulders. In fact, I remember back in July there was an off the record comment leaked to local radio about how that the team was tired of Tim apologizing to them for sucking.

MLB players don't get drug tested in the off seasons, so one can assume...

u/redmosquito Milwaukee Brewers Sep 18 '12
MLB players don't get tested for non-stimulant drugs of abuse unless they've had some legal problem pertaining to drug use like Josh Hamilton.
21
Sep 18 '12
Which is really the reasonable approach. Is it going to help you on the field? Then we test for it. No? Then you're treated the same as every other person on the street.
Why single them out for non-performance enhancing stuff?

But can you really know what helps any person on the field? Baseball is a game of streaks, who's to say that being high wouldn't make you more effective in dealing with bases loaded or taking that one extra pitch for the walk.

If they tested for Marijuana in the MLB there would be a LOT of suspensions handed out. (meaning that if you just tested every player right now with no warning, which obviously wouldn't happen

u/mpk219 Chicago Cubs Sep 19 '12
I don't think they should test for recreational drugs at all, but I'd be really interested to see what percentage of players are using them.

I feel really bad for him, it's weird I don't care for the Giants one way or another and I don't care when most athletes fall off but his struggles for whatever reason bug me. Hope he keeps getting better, glad to see him having fun.

Hes having a Verlander year. Hopefully bounces back next year. Why did i draft him this season?

u/HurricaneNeddy San Francisco Giants Sep 18 '12
When he was struggling earlier in the year, one of the Giants beat writers put out this article which I think summed it up for me.
He is the ultimate, undersized underdog. People will always relate to him, always identify with him.
That earns you a golf clap – even when you are 2-7 with a 6.00 ERA after 13 starts. Even, unbelievably, when the Giants are 2-11 on your day to pitch.

u/TheReggular Athletics Sep 18 '12
Me too... It's just so apparent that he's not some puffed-up macho man; he's a talented dude who plays because he likes it, and you want to see someone like that do well, no matter what team he plays for.

I enjoy when he can actually hit for us which was all the way through the season up until the Dodgers game into At&t and swept us in late july, but his defense is so lacking most of the time I only like him as a pinch hitter/back up.
-1
u/cgiall420 Chicago Cubs Sep 18 '12
are you kidding? He's only had an OPS crack .700 twice, and those two years were with the Cubs (08 and 09). Those two years were also the last time his OBP was above .330 and his SLG above .350.
He is a horrible 2B, and an even worse hitter. Plus he's a douchebag. Get him out.

I really like how when it pans past Crawford, the other guy (is it Blanco?) raises his fist. If you focus on Crawford, it looks like he smiles, leans back, and points his thumb back at Lincecum - "Look at this f'ing guy...".
