  1. I guess Eddie got the message. What a heroic AB. But that was set up by Sano taking that ball four. How many times have we seen him strike out on that pitch? That was key, and good on him.
  2. Where's he playing these days? Maybe we can get him back from whatever HS team he's coaching.
  3. Boy, oh boy, Garver stole that strike 3.
  4. Even with that unfortunate homer, Gibby still turns in a quality start. Still a lotta game left, let's go, boys, our starter is battling, get them bats going, too.
  5. **Sigh** I can't even be bothered to be miffed, nor surprised.
  6. Dang, Sano looked like ol' Cesare Maniago with that save. Good play by the big fella.
  7. Lordy, how many new ways can this team find to screw up a ballgame? Every dang day, it seems like there's another example that I've never seen before in all my tender decades. Cripe.
  8. Heh... I tuned in just in time for a Snapper-Gibb-it-Back-Inning! ® Jeepers, that ump took a nasty punch. Wouldn't surprise me if he's concussed and got that jaw pushed out of whack. But on a positive note, it's looking more and more like we are seeing our new 2nd baseman + leadoff hitter growing up right before Arraez! (And as I type that, of course, he gets himself picked off. Meh.)
  9. Well, we keep sitting around like this, shuffling AAA deck chairs, we'll be on the list of "sellers" soon enough.
  10. Calling an 0-2 curveball is not the problem. The problem is a pitcher who spins the damn thing over the heart of the plate, instead of burying it 6 feet deep. That's on Trevor may for not pitching like a major-leaguer.
  11. Arghhhh.... Sad to see Rooker go down just then. (Hope he's OK- sounds like he took an almighty nut-megging). Glad to see Larnach get moved up, but wondering if it has anything to do with seeing which of the 2 to keep around, and which to package in a trade....
  12. Yep. That ol' "loading the bases" ploy is not good for this team. That was the death knell.
  13. Heh.... His name is Pohlad. Of course it's about the money, over anything else.
  14. Did you hear that? That was the heartbeat that went by when considering this question. Yep.
  15. I really really really like Jaylin Davis. What makes me a little sad, though, is the more progress he makes through the ranks, and the hotter he gets in AAA, the more he looks like a trade plum.
  16. After a stretch of not-so-hot baseball leading up to the break, they've come out in fine form the last couple of days. There's nothing like pasting the team chasing you, right in front of their own fans! Overcame a Gibby implosion, and a near-Jake implosion as well, with some tough relief pitching and timely late hitting. Now, I really really really hope Bux is OK, and Eddie R comes back soon, too. We can't take another outfield hit like we did last month. Interesting on the trade front, that Boston gave up a pair of 17-yr-olds in the DSL for a solid major-league starter. Maybe we won't get hosed too badly when we finally trade for one. On a lighter note, Sale got greased again! 3-9, ERA over 4. Doesn't matter he's not a White Sock anymore, I hate the Red Sox even more! Haw haw haw....! *Heh... Edit time* I looked up the baseball ref. on those 2 kids the O's got. Collectively, they weigh about the same as The Crusher.
  17. OMG, Bux. The guy is just incredible. He's gotta be seeing stars--- that is so dangerous. I would not be surprised if he's concussed right now.
  18. Heh.... I was just typing "how about a little duck snort over the drawn-in infield" when Cave hit that worm-burner past the Mummy's Sarcophagus over there at first. Good job, Jake! Now make Rogers take a seat out there in the BP! Do NOT bring him in!
  19. This needs to be Blake Parker's walk-up music. Plus, it's The Blasters, so I always just need some o' that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hB2kogSjyQU Cripe, 2 more innings of our BP.... I'm seriously shakin'.
  20. Gawd-- I don't know why Harper didn't come back to start this inning. First we get Tyler "No Mystery" Duffey, then the BPE. I'm shaking as much as Parker is right now.
  21. Need to be adding on here. Still a whole lotta outs for our bullpen to get, without Rogers, too.
  22. Welp. You hit the Mendoza-line-quality leadoff guy, it's already got the makings of a Jake-Melt-Em-Down-Inning. ®
  23. Whaddya think, Bauer comes out for the next inning? Man, he has laboured, but he's kept his team in the game.
