Trayce with B-Ham's lone hit

I certainly don't feel trapped by his contract. I suppose there isn't certainty that he'll be his old self, but we'll be getting something out of him for sure.

STRONG ARM OF BACON

Okay Addy, there's your one

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 13, 2013 -> 06:35 PM) I really wonder if they're willing to go with a 4 lefty rotation for a full year. I might well do it, but I wonder if they're unconventional enough to throw that out there. I think they know the splits well enough that two of the lefties dominate righties and struggle against lefties; therefore, not so unconventional

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jul 13, 2013 -> 06:34 PM) He's right though. This is the perfect opportunity to bottom out. The opportunity to move up a few spots in the draft order isn't worth having big leaguers play badly or removing all the good big leaguers from the team.

Dunn 2.0

A lead!

Is it just me or is ADA heating up?

Woo! If Philly loses this, this has to be their worst loss of the year

Despite the fact that he pitched over it, Nate Jones's balk is the best representation of our season thus far

An inning or two out of Troncoso would be highway robbery.

Domonic Brown runs like it hurts

Jones draft day scouting report: Where'd the rest come from? Not many guys throw 88 as a 21 year old and 98+ just a few years later

NATES JONE SO CLUTCH

Extremely well-pitched AB. Believed in his offspeed.

If Jones gets out of this, I have no idea how I should feel

It's insane how often Dayan's arm has affected games recently.

Big out - Dayan's arm pays off. Walk Nix, try for a double play

LOL WTF WAS THAT

Fitting that both hits were within inches of infielder's gloves

It's bulls*** that they very well may be the only team to bat with the benefit of these terrible conditions

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 13, 2013 -> 04:55 PM) Nate Robinson drawing interest from the nuggets, return to the Bulls "unlikely to the extreme" It's interesting to me that that is the reason. On one hand, it's perfectly obvious why Thibs wouldn't like him. On the other hand, he coached him in Boston and it seemed like he was part of the reason that Nate got his opportunity here. I just started to assume that Thibs really liked him for what he is. He doesn't fit so well here now that Derrick is back, though; that'd be it for any chance of playing time for Teague.

Manto's arrival coincided with resurgences from Dunn, Rios, and now Gordon. The biggest disappointment, offensively, has been PK - but we can chalk that up to age. Dayan is probably the main guy who we'd like to see Manto "save" - and if he does, Manto will have a job here for quite a while.

So who do we think missed the sign?
