This is me. I know we are going to have a long wonderful ride with these guys, but Abreu will only be there for the beginning. I would have never dreamt that in 2014 that It would be 6 years for him to make the playoffs, and that it may not have happened. That guy is what sports are about. 6 years we’ve watched him. 6 years we’ve over analyzed and blamed him for not being perfect. And now when the team May have needed him both least and most he took the bull by the ducking horns and blasted this team to the best in the AL. Fuck. Yeah. Jose.

Man can't believe this team of players that are so terrible and awful every at bat and play somehow won 3 out of 4 and are the best team in the AL.

PLAYOOOOOOOFFFFFFS

Well honestly even from just what I expected of Dyson. It actually is kinda nice to have a position player with WS experience, especially a team that didn't cheat because their manager was probably too dumb to ever figure out how.

He may have incredible anxiety about his body not being normal, and constantly questioning whether something he feels is a problem or right. He may be struggling to pick up a pitch. He may have guessed wrong. He may be really in his head not knowing how to concentrate. We have no idea, that's why most are giving him the benefit of the doubt, because he's experiencing something we don't know a lot about. OR you guys could villify every player that has a bad at bat.

Man these are great at bats from Dyson today.

If he had Bummer you would see it less. And Colome has earned that usage.

only going to get less relaxing in October.

Same, It's pretty damn hard to find a ball directly above you after removing your mask, though this time of day might be a bit easier. But you gotta communicate to let the pitcher or 1b know. Anyway let's score some fucking runs and eat the souls of the twins. I want soul crumbs all over the grass.

oh no. Jose has to call that, it was clear McCann couldn't find it.

of course. How do you miss that?

Man, so crazy when a guy like Heuer comes up. Someone you kinda know but never follow bullpen stats in the minors then this dude is throwing 97 to the top right corner and making dudes look foolish in the 8th inning of a game that may decide the division. Baseball man!

YES YES YES YES YES YES

Holy crap that whole time I was thinking " man he's going kinda slow" but I never expected to see Jose a step PAST the bag!

Not a big deal, Dyson can steal now and TA will single.

well I was wrong.

hell yeah. Pitchers gonna be all distracted and Nickname Madrigal is gonna go yard.

This is the inning. I swear to God Madrigal is going yard this time, right field just into the bullpen bar whatever it's called now

had we started keuchel today, I'd have been a bit down we didn't get 3-1. But it's a 3-2 game in the 7th in a Lopez-Maeda matchup so yeah I'll take it.

Yeah so January or something is still ahead of where it looked in March. I think, realistically we should be rooting for Moderna to have a successful vaccine, right (even if not first)? mRNA seems like a huge breakthrough to finally work and scale vaccines faster in the future.

So Rosenthal's article made it seem like this was not manfreds intention (16 game explicitly), I don't have the WAPO to read the actual article. Felt a little better after his, basically yes it's likely playoffs expand, but didn't mean this specific iteration would.

This whole vaccine debate. I don't know. I think it's too abstract right now. Will I take "a vaccine" that arrives before election day? Probably not. But if, you know, astrozeneca or moderna or J&J publish their clinical trials and it looks good and you can get it in december or so, yes I'd get it. They should have been able to pull off huge, relevant trials due unfortunately to how prevalent covid still was in US and other areas.

The problem though is "Mazara not able to take his approach into games" has been the issue throughout his career from reading Rangers reports on him. It's not that he doesn't work hard, he just can't translate it.

They might cut ties because of his career at this point. They were buying a project, it didn't work out. He's not just in a slump, this is unplayable. This slashline is like@Harold's Leg Lift having a wet dream about Madrigal failing.
