It's generally a good game for your team

if a guy hits a home run and has a negative WPA.

I wanted to comment about how unbelievably good the content was today in general on the site. It’s rather odd to mention this, but considering how the past few days have been, it’s refreshing to see the members of this site as a collective present several really well thought out posts with thoughtful commentary.

What is up with Kapler

we wanted to DFA his ass now he is possessed, causing infielders to miss foul balls.

by sofladude77 on Jun 17, 2009 1:27 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs

He sends the other teams notes pregame that he's going to kick their ass if they catch his foul pops

What's on my mind

I was wondering if Zobrist was shouting

“I got it” from second base to throw them off

Angels in the OF bro

Zobrist didn’t need to shout when he could pray that the guy would miss it. The Boss looks after those that look after Him.

Rays Win!

Coincidence?

Have we lost a game since Ball Four has been relegated to low leverage situations?

by Raymondo on Jun 17, 2009 7:31 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs

I was leaning more towards us having success because of error free ball, with formerly slumping players now hitting the ball.

But what the hell do I know?

I think the hex of the foul pop up is the real trick

IT'S A CURSE.

Coincidence

Maybe I’m just an old fashioned BJ suck-off-er. (Good call Sandy)

I don't know why you hate Balfour so much

He has given up a HR for every 71.6 batters faced with the Rays. Thats is phenomenal. As for his velocity how does an avg 94.99 fastball sound with a max of 96.1. Thats where he was last night. I have faith the walks will come down. He earned that faith last year.
