These post game celebrations are so stupid. Anyway, why not intentionally walk two batters there? Desperation mode, but you gotta do it.

Royals and Mets both 60-60.

Red Sox won 8-1 after 6 innings. Now they have to get off the ground in Baltimore to make it to Detroit at a decent time. Edit: the Red Sox landed in Detroit 10 hours before first pitch.

Good comeback. Allen was horrible.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 17, 2016 -> 09:35 PM) I missed the leadoff walk. Was it a full count fastball? Yes. Low and outside.

Oh Robertson.

Wow. Nice going!

C'mon Hawk...complain about a KC special now...

Nice walk.

Or that

Abreu should homer here.

Beckham down to .219 with Braves. 9-76 since July 15th. Same guy.

Red Sox complained about the day game in Detroit tomorrow, and now they're in a rain delay in Baltimore. Might be a quick call to award them the Win in an 8-1 game in the 7th.

October 3rd, I really hope we hear the entire Sox coaching staff will not be renewed.

QUOTE (shipps @ Aug 17, 2016 -> 04:29 PM) Why? They can just trade him to us if he is such an asshole. He smashed his bat on the dugout railing right in front of Gibbons after he struck out. A little too close for comfort, and Gibbons told him to cool it and things escalated. http://mlb.nbcsports.com/2016/08/17/video-...aldson-got-mad/

Interleague play is weird this year. The outcome is similar, but how they got there is weird. In the four game series where teams play their "rival" 2 home and 2 road, the AL is absolutely crushing teams: 38-18 Every other 2- and 3- game series total is even: 97-97 Total: AL 135 NL 115 With the DH (home), AL teams are 64-61. Without the DH (road), AL teams are 71-54. By Division: AL East 50-37 AL Cent 45-38 AL West 40-40 NL East 39-40 NL Cent 41-39 NL West 35-56 The NL West is terrible in interleague play, but when they play the NL East or Central, they're about .500.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 17, 2016 -> 03:39 PM) Gregor Chisholm ‏@gregorMLB 2h2 hours ago Donaldson has been removed from the game with a jammed right thumb. #BlueJays He was also called an f-ing a-hole by his manager today.

If the 10th pick matters, then losing 3 or 4 to the Phillies would help. Still expect 11 or 12, finishing 77-85.

I have to say, I'm optimistic about this year's draft choices. Some exciting talent that may actually be something.

Just saw that. OK....

Wonder if we'll get a roster move here shortly. Albers would be my choice.

Cool. Hope he's ready.

QUOTE (harkness @ Aug 16, 2016 -> 08:49 PM) it's kind of comical... I'd rather have shuck pitch then albers... Why do they keep sending him out there. I'd rather not have Albers pitch at all.

Albers' double against the Mets was a cool moment this season, but he gots to go tonight.
