Berrios seems to be getting the calls tonight.

It's been the return of the ***bats for a game and a half now.  Stop.

The bats weren't that great the game before, either, they just got bailed out by 3 HR's.  I am starting to get worried.

Beats hitching them to a sled to fetch beer... in July.

It does?

[wsnydes]

It does?

You have no idea what you're missing!

[Blake]

 

It does?

Oh you crazy Canadians.

[wsnydes]

Atta boy, Mitch!

[Aggies7]

This is like being shut down by a pitcher worse than Kyle Gibson. Almost a half run worse, to be more accurate.

[Rhino and Compass]

Maybe if they made the whole lineup out of Jorge Polanco

So you're saying that next inning will be a good one for the bats?

[wsnydes]

That was ugly.

[Aggies7]

Good thing our $23 mil man takes more days off than congress

[jimmer]

1st base defense important.

[GCTF]

A first baseman fields that

[snepp]

Blech.

[jimmer]

Yup, its Mauers fault that Molitor took him out of the lineup against a soft tossing lefty and put a catcher at 1B.

[Darius]

This team is bad right now.

[snepp]

Oh for eff's sake.

[USAFChief]

Tough to maintain that .389 SLG without your legs.

[wsnydes]

Good thing our $23 mil man takes more days off than congress

So he should be a part time player that plays every day?

[Aggies7]

Interesting that today is cal Ripken Jr's bday. Joe has had two days off this week. "Hey skip, put me in"

[Aggies7]

So he should be a part time player that plays every day?

Oh, is he taking a part time salary? Didn't know that!

[wsnydes]

Oh, is he taking a part time salary? Didn't know that!

Wasn't aware that he was an hourly employee.

[Aggies7]

Just ugly ugly ugly

[GCTF]

The hell is that?

[USAFChief]

Oh FFS.

That inning was so last year.

 

 

Don't do it again.

[jimmer]

Wasn't aware that he was an hourly employee.

I remember when he was making way less and producing like crazy and people were complaining that he wasnt making anywhere near what he was worth.Good times.

 

Oh wait, that never happened...

[Blake]

It never ceases to amaze me how fast an inning can unravel.

[Aggies7]

Wasn't aware that he was an hourly employee.

You missed the point. I don't rag on joe even remotely as much as others do. He's having a decent year and has been a great first basemen. But two days off in 5 days when we're in a playoff race, forcing someone playing his 4th ever MLB game to play a position he isn't great at....not sitting well with me. Unless that was all PM's doing....but still, I think he could ask into the lineup, can't he? Especially against an absolute STUD like Derek holland!
