no idea if anyone did a gamethread, but here's a game thread.....

 

Ramirez might be the best contract in all of baseball....

[Squirrel]

Guess with all the events of the day, no one remembered that there’s a game on.

I was about to post this:

Game Thread: Indians @ Twins 7/30/18 @ 7:10 CT

 

I didn't see a game thread posted and the game's going, so here goes!

 

Yard Sale - All must go! We got Dozier, Rodney, heck, you can take Morrison for free if you want! Some lucky customers just got away with Lance Lynn and Zach Duke, so make sure you pick up a player or three before you leave Minnesota! You can have Kyle Gibson too, but you're going to have to give up something of actual value for him. Where's Vanimal when you need him? We need to sell everything!!

Ha! It says we both posted at the same time. I’ll merge them and see who the system chooses.

[Mike Sixel]

Feel free to close this.....

mod: Hey system, pick my post or other guy's

system: Brock programmed me to be nice to mods, since they are volunteers

random guy: whatever

 

I'm just happy there is a game thread. Hopefully the many sides of how we feel about the last few days can still have fun here....

I was about to post this:

I thought for a minute that was mike’s and he used his yard art photos. <G>

[Han Joelo]

The Twins seems to be swinging like they want this over with fast.

[Mill1634]

Sadly, I think Erv is shot

If I had any idea how to post pictures here.....you'd all be sorry!

Maybe more so now that expectations are over for this year.

 

But if we don’t get Machado ...

Or re-sign Esco ...

 

Too much sadness for me.

 

 

Still tearing up a little over losing Esco. I really <3ed that guy!

[Squirrel]

Yeah, he looks awful in his 2nd major league game of the year.

[USAFChief]

Do we have a 23 man roster tonight?

[USAFChief]

As for me, when times get tough...I tuck my knees up into my chest and lean forward.

 

That's just how I roll.

[Mike Sixel]

I was wondering about that....hopefully there is someone around, but not having Lynn is probably not a big deal.....

[Mill1634]

SANO!!!!

 

That was great to see. 

[Aggies7]

Thought Keplers goose was cooked

[Aggies7]

Oh, miguel, whatareya doin

[nicksaviking]

Sadly, I think Erv is shot

Shhh he's the only guy we haven't traded yet.

[Mill1634]

He was safe..have to challenge that. 

[Aggies7]

Wtf Paul? He’s safe!

[Han Joelo]

Nice!  Can someone photoshop Falvey's face on the baseball as it approaches home plate and the waiting Twins hitters?  Thanks in advance.

[Aggies7]

Inexcusable to not challenge that. Wtf is going on

[Squirrel]

Oh, miguel, whatareya doin

He was safe!

[notoriousgod71]

Molitor couldn't be bothered to wake up for that play.

[Aggies7]

He was safe!

Indeed he was

[Mike Sixel]

See, now that is a challenge that matters ( a guy on 2nd)....why not?

[Squirrel]

Indeed he was

It’s a little worrisome for me that we agree on something.
