Awesome rebuild game

I was talking to some big time baseball aficionados today and telling them about the fans on this website wanting us to lose and they said that's ridiculous. The consensus was TWO TEAMS in baseball history have tanked well, Cubs was one team and I think Houston maybe the other and they said EVERYTHING BROKE right for them and in general it's a RIDICULOUS idea.

So I'm not the only one. These guys know their baseball folks and they said I was 100 percent right in saying tanking is a very stupid idea.

And they brought up Trout, not me.

Ok yolmer, your time buddy.

Haha thought that was the 9th

What was with letting Avi face a LHP

?

This team competes but Jesus we need to lose games.

Are you eating the brownies again?

Not trying to start any arguments so ignore this if it angers you, but my gawd how can anybody want us to lose to these f***ers, the Minnesota Twins. Damn the Twins and their fans PISS ME OFF.

They've owned us for a long time. I despise them.

A 1 run loss with a dominant inning from Kahnle here sounds ideal to me.

The Royals tanked for twenty years...eventually they started picking the right guys in the high first round.

 

The Marlins, after 1997. World Series again in 2003.

 

The Indians in the 2001-2002 time period, but couldn't close the deal in 2007.

 

The A's have done it pretty well over the years.

Yikes Avi

Tough play, needed to dive

Pitch selection is such garbage.

Jesus avi.

There goes Avi's Gold Glove

this is not Avi's inning in RF

Two consecutive Avi errors...no RBI???

At least Avi's bat is actually good now.

Avi with the yips in right field. Looking like a Little Leaguer. Oh well. Baseball is a cruel game. You can look great then look like the biggest bumbling player in the world.

Poor Avi. Will this performance turn him back into the old Avi in right?

Oh this is not good for Kahnle

Serious question, after Melky gone would Avi at least be average in left due to decent arm?

Oh this is not good for Kahnle

Good test for him, to pitch over the defense.

That's what happens when you blow a ton of opportunities to tie it. Home team finally puts you away. One win this series would be all one could hope for against the Piranhas.

Need good picks and prospects dude. The rebuild needs another year. Players need to perform so they can be traded.

We ARE losing though...
