Is punishing the ball

I know it’s been around for a few years but I really love this format.
Gotta say this has been really competitive and fun

Eventhough it may not be the biggest stars. Bregman coming up just short on his last swing was exciting

This is the final I was hoping for
Good finals.

Schwarber is so smooth with his swing but when Harper gets in a groove watch out. Schwarber might win it. He's had more rest.
Harper is gassed...

Bryce Harper gives the Nationals fans one final moment to remember

Good to see
Hate to nitpick something so lame  
BigBlue4You09 : 7/16/2018 10:33 pm : link
But his dad was throwing pitches before the previous ones landed. Against the rules, no?
I like the new format

Too bad didn't get to see the biggest names but what can you do. Was still entertaining.
If Harper struggles the second half

or has a lingering injury, you will never see anyone in the Home Run Derby again. No one really wanted part of it this year.

False. Harper is already really struggling this year. And what lingering injury will he have? (Smacks head on table).

Judge last year. A few players have said the derby messes them up.
They should do a skills contest

For throwing, baserunning and bunting!

No kidding. This has been going on for years not just with Judge but what does that have to do with his comment? His comment said there will be no HR Derby because NO ONE will enter it. That's bullshit. And are we just making up injuries now? How many players in the history of the derby have gotten injured doing it? It's a ridiculous comment. It is a far cry from messing up a player's swing to having nobody enter it based on a bullshit outlook.

Yea that would be a real must see...bunting. Maybe they could air it at 2am.
If ESPN2 can have cornhole tournaments,  
Rocky369 : 7/17/2018 9:44 am : link
the Ocho can definitely have a bunting tournament.

I listened to Harpers post derby PC and he said he expects his obliques to be pretty sore tomorrow. Even a mild oblique strain will keep any player out for while.
