Just them and the Nationals.

AT LEAST Ricky had the sense to finally bat Eloy ahead of Encarnacion.

BACK TO BACK TO BACK TO BACK!!!!

BACK TO BACK TO BACK!!!!!

YAZ!!!!! THE POSE!!!!

STUD!!!!

Timmy walks. LOVE.

BOOM. If I could, I'd like this post 100 times.

lol.

They wouldn't of won it anyways (that's why I said to Parkman to breathe easy cause the Oilers had the Hawks position in the draft). Them dropping from 10th to 17th (or 16th depending on Montreal beating Philly) isn't that dramatic. Unless a guy like Lucas Raymond for example slips to 10th, most of the prospects in that range are around the same.

Said it before, ALOT of posters are gonna be eating crow on Keuchel.

Fixed.

Eloy was never a high walk guy even in the minors. Hell, his best was 10.3% in high A with the Cubs. He was always a high contact, massive power hitter. And he will continue to be that up here.

The only thing you can argue that is disappointing about Eloy (other than the defense) is his average. And that is mostly because he gets shifted on at the MLB level waaaaaay more than he did in the minors (I've seen numerous hits Eloy had get robbed cause of the shift).

When is the Yoelkis Cespedes era suppose to begin?

If Abreu can continue to do that.. you know... trust his protection behind him, he'll be a much better hitter. Take your walks and trust your teammates. Having Eloy behind you instead of Encarnacion helps too.

OMG SOMEONE OTHER THAN ROBERT STEALS A BASE!

LOVE this from Stoney.

Some people may not enjoy Ozzie pre and post game, but I do. Highly entertaining. His Carlos Quentin story just now was absolutely brilliant. And I knew there was a story behind Quentin and Zack Grienke.

Eloy now ahead of EE in the batting order... you're slowly learning Ricky.

So Robert is apparently the only guy we have with speed to steal bases.

Mendick just continues to hit.

Damn Carlsson might have to go in the weight room. That should've been 10 rows back.

Wouldn't expect anything less from him.
