8/1 - Open the Month with a Win

[Bergs]

I don't care how good you look Tristan, Cora will still PH for you later.

Or Duran. Can't leave 'em both in.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Wooderson looks dominant.

 

[SoxinSeattle]

Sleep walking.

 

[JOBU]

This team is brutal right now

 

[The Gray Eagle]

The offense has cratered on this trip, awful.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Valdez gets the no-no.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

The wild thing is they are like 4 total clutch hits away from still looking like the hottest shit in baseball.

 

[Bergs]

Casas needs a nickname. I'm going with Houses!

Duran needs a nickname. I'm going with Long Lasting!

edit:
tbph, I don't like Long Lasting. I do like Houses, though.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Yu Chang's throws ain't nuttin to eff wit

 

[Bergs]

It is not crazy Nolan Ryan never won a Cy Young. He was never that good at actually pitching to win.

 

[Bergs]

Yu Chang's throws ain't nuttin to eff wit

Bam! Aw, man!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Bello death changeup is beautiful

 

[Bergs]

Choppin heads, yo.

There’s a No Maas joke here somewhere.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Choppin heads, yo.

Getting the pitch count back in line is also how to protect yo neck

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Feels like pitchers who work the top of the zone regularly are going to get fatigued and let one hang. There is no data underpinning that take.

Also, Masa!

 

[mr_smith02]

Yo, that's a hit!

 

[greek_gawd_of_walks]

Merloni is great imo. He needs to be working color on TV when he's not on radio.

 

[Doc Zero]

Apropos of nothing, I hope the Flaherty-to-the-O’s situation is more of an Erik Bedard kinda thing, not a Jake Peavy kinda thing.

 

[OnWisc]

It is not crazy Nolan Ryan never won a Cy Young. He was never that good at actually pitching to win.

I don’t know. He had some video game numbers 72-74.

 

[JOBU]

Don’t fuck this up

 

[Doc Zero]

Jesus is that the wrist?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

The resurgent ADAM DUVALL is one tough customer.

 

[Murby]

Bello made 28 starts and pitched about 153 innings last year between Portland, Worcester and Boston. So he shouldn’t be hitting any kind of wall at this point.

Thank you kindly

 

[patinorange]

The resurgent ADAM DUVALL is one tough customer.

That did not look good.

 

[OnWisc]

That’s a nice pitch.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

That is just bad luck.

 

[JOBU]

Fuck

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Fuck, you gotta score on that.

 

[soxin6]

Here comes the ultimate kick in the nuts.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Smoked that. Damn

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

BABIP has always hated us out west.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

There we go.

 

[JOBU]

Everything about west coast trips can eat my ass

 

[OnWisc]

Misplayed that.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Great AB by Arroyo. He crushed that.

 

[Doc Zero]

“I am so motherfucking sick of Christian motherfucking Arroyo.”

is a post I drafted after he swung through two consecutive pitches

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Keep ‘em coming

 

[patinorange]

One fastball too many. Ha.

 

[simplicio]

I'll admit I fully expected Arroyo to mess that up. Offense!

 

[Doc Zero]

Back in the drafts!

 

[moretsyndrome]

Alright, alright, alright!!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Bounce one, you bastard.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

McGuire chases up by his chin.

Edit: Great AB though!

 

[patinorange]

All right. A sacrifice fly.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

“You’re waiting for an explosion”

That‘s what McGuire told the cop.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

For once why cant this guy bring da ruckus?

 

[E5 Yaz]

I come aboard to see they're leading 3-1 and all I read are a bunch of whiner line wannabe posts. What's wrong with you

Whatever you do don't open the Trade Deadline Approach thread.
