That was Albers first run scored. Ever.

Hopefully the next two guys have some deep ABs to give Albers a couple of minutes to catch his breath.

That will work.

Infield in.

Oh wow, he about killed himself trying to stop at 2B.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 04:27 PM) Thats the nature of game threads. Lowest level of baseball talk there is. I am not knocking it, its just full of emotion so its usually not insightful. This is so true.

Let's play 13!

Oh hey, another DP.

Robles is leaving with an injury. Maybe a stiff back?

QUOTE (harkness @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 03:47 PM) Yeah I see clean up hitters bunt all the time.... It must be nice to see the game in such simple terms. Just because a guy is hitting #4 doesn't mean he is a proto-typical type hitter. Dude has four homers on the year and isn't hitting the ball right now.

And that is exactly why managers bunt there. Thankfully the pitcher rushed that throw.

Wow, nice job by Frazier to make a throw from there.

Double switch maybe?

All right Abreu, let's get a slump buster.

It'll just keep repeating the login box saying error. This has happened to me before but not as prolonged as this. Does it work on another browser?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 03:15 PM) Yay, Avila vs. a LHP...

Another DP. Wow.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 02:33 PM) No problem with what Eaton said. He's the one playing and has been successful doing things his way. I've never watched him and thought he was unprepared for a certain pitcher/hitter. Realistically, I don't want my hitters thinking any more than they have to. Stats and strategies are for management and coaches. They might communicate to do something a specific situation, but players just need to play.

That is exactly what I would expect Eaton to say. The other guy I can totally hear talking like that is Chris Sale.

Nice hustle Lawrie!

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 01:54 PM) yeah that seems like a bit of an overreaction to a 2nd PED test, but like ss2k5 said, at his age 162 games is basically a lifetime ban anyway And I believe a 3rd suspension is a life time ban, no?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 1, 2016 -> 01:34 PM) Talk about a guy that deserves a lifetime ban right now. The guy is scum. At 38 years old, this is basically a life time ban.

All a part of the BB to set up the GIDP plan.
