Make the chemistry articles stop. Please.

Is BBTF members lacking in chemistry? We should post an article on that.

I think the DodgeSox will win the NL west with 97-100 wins.

We've got too much chemistry! Imagine the baseball talks we would have if we all didn't know what the other guy already knew before we got into the thread. It'd be like the old days all over again.

I want to see a player saying in spring that the chemistry is horrible and his team is doomed.

Bonus points if he's in the worst shape of his life.

H2SO4 + 2 NaOH >> Na2SO4 + 2 H2O

Chemistry!

There was an L.A. Times Dodger report a week or two about how Ryu couldn't even finish his workout routine due to his lack of stamina. And he said that it was all good and he was actually in shape to pitch.

Not quite the opposite of "The Best shape of his Life", but its pretty clear Ryu's never going to try to lose his ample guy any time soon.

For the last few years, the buzzword has been SWAGGER, applied to individual players. Obviously this year the buzzword is that old chestnut, chemistry. This is sort of sad as surely baseball is now 2-3 generations behind on corporate lingo. I assume "synergy" is already old fashioned in those circles.

Until you can manage to match up subject/verb agreement with the skill of a fifth grader you will get no chemistry from me.

Per Dave O'Brien, Dan Uggla's no longer a muscle bound oaf. He's lithe and sinewy and only shops at Whole Foods now.

I can't wait for the paradigm shift!

Dude. Brad Pitt made a movie about it. It's so over.

I nominate "swaggergy" as the new corporate buzzword.

There's only one word the 2013 season will be remembered for, and that's "RADickureyes".

I've been waiting, vainly, for athletes and the media to realize the irony of touting team chemistry in the steroid age.

A slimmed down Matt Kemp

Just noticed this ... maybe they're hoping to replace chemicals with chemistry.

Physics matters way more than chemistry.

I didn't know BALCO opened up in LA...

Clearly Matt is mistaken. The whole reason to be the world champ is so you can say obnoxious things about other peoples team with total impunity.
