Anyone still thinking about a 'sweep'?

The 800 pound grizzly flinging him around like a ragdoll is ok, but THIS gets to you??

• This is why we can't have nice things.

I don't mind losing competitive games, at least not usually.  Except that they were well short of competitive in any aspect of this game.  That's why this team can get so frustrating, at least to me.

I gave it a laughing out loud emoji.

It's Ok though... My Palmist said that I do that kind of stuff so it can't be helped.

We call that "ninja'd" 'round these parts.

Another game where bats jump out early and then get allergic to the ball.  Double digit K's again.

Last year’s trade deadline pickups….woof

I thought 3 wins would be okay,   not a good start, Thanx  Rocco , you gonna make up the ????  injury concern instead of being Honest ??  Can Sonny speak ??

Sorry.  It's a night game thread after a day game thread.  I'm a little out of sorts.

Unfiltered Sonny would be off the charts.

I leave you all with some elephant phrasing

That's what happens when it appears as though you weren't really trying all hard.

Not saying they weren't, it just appeared to me like that was the case.

[William K Johnson]

It would be nice to have their hitting coach.   Oh, that's right we did have.   Now we have this hitting coach who believes that you swing for the fences on every pitch, including when you have two strikes.    Besides that, this team makes so many fundamental mistakes.   What was Castro doing going to third with two outs.   We were taught in little league not to make the third out at third.   Starting to get a little concern with Lewis' throws to first.     Finally, as someone who has ripped on Larnach in the past, he was just starting to show some promise when he is sent down.    Well, at least we still have Kepler.

Dunno.

I've heard tomorrow is promised to nobody.

Sonny's body language is that of a guy really p'd off about not getting sent out for the 5th and acknowledging his part in it.

[HokieRif]

Hold on while I process through this. I missed the entire game tonight and I’m upset, but not as upset as I am confused. We gave up 8 runs, and Pagan was the only one that didn’t give one up, picks a guy off, and has two extremely clean innings??? What alternate universe did I walk in to??

Just watched Sonny , And no he is not a Fan of being taken out with a 2 run lead, I appreciated his Honesty  saying all he wants is a chance , 4th inning was over and should of been given a chance to help his team after they got him 4 ,  H e wont go over the line with his comments, Yes he is very upset

You know it's a good comment when you, @Riverbrian and @wsnydes all comment on it.

And yes ... not that I want to be thrown around by a grizzly, but I think freezing to death in the north Atlantic and then having your frozen, dead body sink to the depths is a worse way to go

Yup.  He has had it with Rocco's style.
