QUOTE (bmags @ May 10, 2016 -> 02:16 PM) Right. I would like to move Lawrie to 2nd batting order, but, I don't want to mess with where he is as long as he's hitting. If Avi is legit, maybe move him up. Not when he's striking out almost 50% of the time recently.

So why hasn't Sands been DFA'd yet?

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ May 10, 2016 -> 01:29 PM) July 8th-10th at home right before the All-Star Break. I hope they're still playing like hot garbage then. Oh perfect.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 10, 2016 -> 12:43 PM) My twitter timeline is talking about Mike Trout to the Cubs because of a dumbass Julie DiCaro tweet. She said they'd be interested. The same way i'd be interested in having sex with Scarlett Johansson. Pretty sure Mike Trout is equivalent to something even better than ScarJo.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ May 10, 2016 -> 11:50 AM) @obxleatherman Every team who has played at Turner Field this season has won at least two games there, except the Braves. Please tell me we play the Braves this year.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ May 10, 2016 -> 11:05 AM) Nolasco has always had OK peripherals, but the ERA never seems to match, there's always been a big gap. He's a consistent underperformer, and I don't think it's a fluke. Nolasco is basically Javier Vazquez.

Holland got absolutely destroyed by Toronto his last time out. With Robertson and Jones probably unavailable, we're gonna need to score some runs tonight.

Need Rodon to be sharp today after last night's bullpen marathon. Would be nice to take this one because I don't trust Latos against this lineup on Wednesday. Hamels is also pitching in that one.

QUOTE (Dunt @ May 10, 2016 -> 11:02 AM) Ya, I'd be very wary of a deal for him myself, just throwing out ideas. What about Eovaldi? I think Eovaldi might be a guy Coop can make a lot better. He throws gas.

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ May 10, 2016 -> 07:59 AM) Based on my novice level lip reading ability, it looks like he might be doing a quick homage to Andrew Shaw. None of that was very mormon of Bryce. I think saying something homophobic is gonna get him in way more trouble than telling that umpire to f*** himself.

It's too bad that Rollins isn't better as a left handed hitter. Because he's crushed left handed pitching this year. So you can't really platoon him and Saladino.

Avi's slash line: .273/.350/.477. Please let this be the real Avi.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:43 PM) Is a guy kicked out allowed back onto the field even on a walkoff like that? No idea.

Avila looked really good in his come back tonight. He's got a .359 OBP on the year now.

I think Harper might get fined or suspended for this, but it's absolutely hilarious.

Can we get Bryce Harper to yell f*** you at Laz Diaz too?

QUOTE (mmmmmbeeer @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:26 PM) Does Robertson earn two blown saves in this one? Kind of concerning to see his fastball topping out at 91....hope it's just fatigue. Fantastic win. It wasn't always pretty but these guys came through once again. Really happy to see Gonzalez have a solid start....would be ideal for us to fill that hole in-house. Avi still raking. This team is on a mission. He was throwing 94 yesterday. I just think there's days where he just does not have it. It's not a very desirable trait in your closer. That's been the case with him since he was on the Yankees. Remember when Adam Dunn took him yard 4 years ago?

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:25 PM) I don't want to bring this thread down because this was a terrific win but the Jerry Sands situation does have to be talked about. No use for him on the roster right now. If there's one thing Melky's ejection contributed to this team, it's that everyone now knows Sands is useless on this team. Come on FO, bring up Shuck!

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:18 PM) I'm starting to sound like a broken record but Frazier is not a three true outcome guy, he doesn't strike out that much. He has a low average because he's hit so many pop ups, not because of strikeouts. He's a victim of rolling over on breaking balls and weak contact. There's a reason his BABIP is like .200.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:14 PM) Todd Frazier is on pace for 49 HR and 133 RBI. He's gonna hit 35-40 homers, but he's probably not going to hit higher than .250.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:05 PM) http://espn.go.com/mlb/gamecast?gameId=330...amp;src=desktop 2013 with Addison Reed, who still got the win by pitching 3 innings. I seem to remember we blew a 4 run lead against the Mariners in 2008 and then walked them off.

Todd Frazier

OVA! Wow that was a marathon.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:03 PM) How is that scored a hit? Home official scorer bias.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 9, 2016 -> 11:01 PM) Anyone remember when the Sox blew a 5 run lead in like the 12th, the only team ever to do so? That was great Wasn't that in 2008? With Jenks? And god damn it Rollins...
