I don't like these odds either

I’m not so sure the streak ends tonight. Last night was a bad bad loss, it should have ended yesterday.

Actually I have a date tonight

I won’t be able to watch the game. So between work and girls, I’ve effectively rendered my MLB Extra Innings package useless.

So between work and girls,

I want to make a joke here so bad.

I figured someone would make a joke about how my “other” package isn’t useless.

A's announcer:
R.J. I have no knowledge of anything of the sort. Nothing even close to a comment like that was mentioned on our broadcast. Thanks for taking the time to check it out, but, honestly, I have no idea what you are talking about.

So, I don’t know.

You have now become the object of ridicule for the next several days.

You and the Rays offense.

Just remember

I was the first to call shenanigans.

I dunno why you should remember that exactly, but it could be important later.

Same lineups as last night

Including Gomes who is a whopping 1 for 13 lifetime against Lee. Should be epic

His bat has looked really slow. That’s a pitch he normally crushes.

mayb he's just too high from the huge wad of dip in mouth,

or maybe he just can’t see over it when hitting.

thanks

maybe if i, like upton, wasn’t high, i could type better

Well

At least their best hitter is bunting. That’s a positive.

7 ERs in 0.2 IP is plenty fair for Glover

He’s been cheating death for a month now

by Jason Collette on Jul 11, 2008 7:22 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

"Unfair"

Its not like they scored 0 and charged him for 7. I would be unfair the other way to get none of those earned.

NO. THATS BULLSHIT.

i disagree,

it was a tough read. off the end of the bat, looks like a pop, into the sun then shade, it’s tough.

by davidsmarch on Jul 11, 2008 7:27 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

its the major leagues

you have to catch that ball

by Sveet on Jul 11, 2008 7:27 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

right,

lets release every player that makes an error…

by davidsmarch on Jul 11, 2008 7:28 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

It should be an error

Even though you can’t score it that way, but acting like a tard in the outfield should place the blame clearly at your feet.

by kericr on Jul 11, 2008 7:30 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

bullshit

Stephen Hawkings could have caught that ball

Gomes is like that fat kid on your little league team...

only he’s 17 years older and still plays the OF like he is 10 years old

Jonny Gomes must go

Hopefully nothing

We need a bat

It would be Street and Murton.

AND YOU DON’T WANT STREET? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?

Our bullpen is one of the best in the majors

What good is a fourth closer-grade bullpen guy if we can’t score enough to get to him?

He's better than:

Percy, Wheels, Howell

by P Brady on Jul 11, 2008 7:35 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Better is arguable

But what he have is more than good enough. As I said, we need a bat.

I am mad at Maddon for putting Gomes in RF when he has proved over and over he can’t play there

Unfair

James Shields may be the best hitter on the pitching staff, and may very well be a better hitter than Gomes.

Eric Milton, remember him? The AP is reporting that he is set to rejoin the Yankees after working out at the team’s minor league complex. The 33 year-old lefty had Tommy John surgery in June of last year. He’s said to be six weeks away from pitching in games, and the Yankees have 2009 in mind as well.

by P Brady on Jul 11, 2008 7:38 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

He could be league average

That would be a decent pick-up for them.

Do we need to sacrifice a live chicken to JoBu to get the bats goin in this game. Crawford must have drank JoBu’s rum.

't help Seranno hit anything that wasn't a fastball.

The only way he could hit one is if the pitcher left a phat one over the plate.
