Oh by the way, I am listening to the Mariner's radio broadcast. They went on about how the Sox pretty much have a murderer's row and everyone on this team can take anyone deep. Went on about as long as Flowers doesn't blast one out, the rain could very well end this in favor or the Mariners. LOL. Made it so sweet to hear them call his HR.

Dagger time.

Nice comeback

YAY TARP!

Good call umps

lol @ people bashing Tylers offense a few weeks ago. All he's doing is hitting bombs left and right

I was one of 'em. Of course, for a long while he was dreadful. Glad as hell that he's turned it around.

Steve Stone's humor is underrated. Dude's funny.

effing rain.

He's turned into a plus defensive catcher who calls a good game. That's all that matters IMO. The power is just a bonus.

Very dry humor, and I love it.

OPS by month:

April: .569

June: .330

July: .515

August: 1.328 (before that HR).

we swept 2 teams in a row. Not bad. Bench mob coming through big time, just like they have all year long for us.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

I agree wholeheartedly. Of course it's always nice when your backups can provide some offense but I've liked Tyler's game for a long time. I just couldn't take the .180 hitting.

Is Tyler Flowers showing enough here in the 2nd half to get the nod as the everyday catcher in 2013?

 

Have to fear overpaying AJ based on his stats for this year and the likelihood of a decline.

This game is FAR from over. Unless they just banged it and you're the only one who knows about it.

Tarp coming off.

 

Youk about to apply the dagger.

If we're planning on making a run to repeat as division champs, no, we need AJ back.

 

If we're keeping a salary of $95 million and we've sold off more pieces/stayed young, then why not.

Little bit of a gap before the big thick lines hit.

Can somebody burn this post?

Its rained harder during most of the game than it did during the original 2 hour delay.
