Jacoby Ellsbury CF
Brett Gardner LF
Alex Rodriguez DH
Brian McCann C
Carlos Beltran RF
Greg Bird 1B
Chase Headley 3B
Didi Gregorius SS

Do we honor Joe for being loyal to his guys or like disgruntled fans bitch about the lineup?

2 Alex Belth   ~  Sep 15, 2015 5:23 pm

1) I see what you mean but I'm fine with it. Never know when that numnuts Drew is going to poke one out.

3 MSM35   ~  Sep 15, 2015 5:39 pm

[2] or Ellsbury?

4 Alex Belth   ~  Sep 15, 2015 5:51 pm

3) Hello? Right. That dude needs to show up one of these days.

5 Alex Belth   ~  Sep 15, 2015 5:57 pm

You know who I'm happy for? Cervelli. I like the Pirates in the NL and I'm glad he got to a place where he could start and he's done so damn well.

6 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:11 pm

[5] Indeed.

7 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:15 pm

A-Rod!

8 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:15 pm

Man, did you hear that sound?

That had such a nice sound.

9 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:15 pm

A monster shot.

10 Alex Belth   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:15 pm

YEAH, BABY.

11 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:16 pm

That really was an exquisite swing.

12 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:19 pm

Arod really feeling it. At least in his mind,mr exemption.

[5] Very happy for Cervelli, and Pittsburgh.

Let's relive this once again.

13 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:21 pm

That should read redemption, not mr. exemption lol.

14 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:30 pm

If it wasn't for Jaso's aggressive running, no outs two runs in. The Rays are not fooled.

15 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:31 pm

Crud

16 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:32 pm

Ah, limited

Hmmm

17 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:33 pm

And loss of challenges

18 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:41 pm

Leiter's my favorite.

19 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:43 pm

They're getting some good swings off this guy. Lots of squarely hit balls.

20 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:46 pm

[18]he seems truly nice, but sometimes he suffers from a loss of his point.

21 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:50 pm

(Clete, Brooks, Cal, Chase) one of these things doesn't belong...

22 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:51 pm

Oy.

23 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:52 pm

Remember Abreu? He used to be terrified of running into the wall.

Jesus.

24 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:53 pm

Can we have two DHs? Alex for the pitcher, Carlos for Drew.

25 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:53 pm

[20] Sure. I just get a good vibe from him. There's a genuineness about him.

26 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 6:59 pm

That wasn't a strike.

27 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:05 pm

Nice play.

28 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:05 pm

At least I still have my glove

29 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:06 pm

Nice catch Els

30 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:07 pm

[28] and the best base runner on the team

31 MSM35   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:10 pm

Last night Joe let Heathcott hit and did not pinch hit Drew. I guess if he thought he could get a hit in a big spot he would have put him up. Yet tonight he plays again.

32 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:16 pm

I didn't like having Randy Johnson on our team.

33 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:19 pm

WOW!

What a shot!!

Yaay!!

34 Ara Just Fair   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:20 pm

Word to Big Bird!

35 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:20 pm

Boid is the woid!

36 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:20 pm

(Also, I still don't know how we let Robbie go.)

37 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:27 pm

Bird pushed up the pitch count and sent one flying. That was a great AB!

38 MSM35   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:29 pm

Robbie will be 33 in a few weeks and has had a poor season for that kind of money. I disliked every player that GS had any input in getting from Reggie to Sheffield. But his offspring are doing a great job.

39 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:29 pm

don't touch mah took. Mahtook should play for Toronto.

40 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:32 pm

Buckneresque!

41 MSM35   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:35 pm

Bunt?

42 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:37 pm

Blerg

43 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:43 pm

[38] Yeah. Still and all...

44 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:57 pm

Nice Rumblelow

45 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:57 pm

Rumble Down Below was great there. I was convinced the Rays would score.

46 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:58 pm

That was great.

47 Ara Just Fair   ~  Sep 15, 2015 7:59 pm

Afuckingmen.

48 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:00 pm

Love that bunt down the left field line by McCann. If he does it a few times, they'll have to stop shifting on him.

49 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:06 pm

I really think he should. They all should. Just enough to make them stop shifting, exactly.

50 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:08 pm

Mickey Mantle in his prime had at least 5 bunt hits per year.

51 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:10 pm

Fuck fuck motherfuck.

52 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:10 pm

Fuck!

53 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:10 pm

Fuck you, asshole, just run the fucking bases.

54 Ara Just Fair   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:20 pm

That's quite some style from a .140 hitter. douche.

55 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:23 pm

[54] yeah, just saw that second HR of the year for him. Dumbass

56 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:29 pm

Where's my bat?

57 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:31 pm

Modammit

58 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:31 pm

Oh, fuck you, Jack.

Damn it.

59 Ara Just Fair   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:32 pm

Ugh. Fucking Bollocks!

60 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:50 pm

Damn, not a home run from Alex

61 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:52 pm

These fuckers and their glove work.

62 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 8:59 pm

I'm amazed A.J. Pierzynski is still playing.

Wow.

63 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:02 pm

Braves beat the blow jays at least

64 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:04 pm

Jays losing outa give the yanks some oomph.

65 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:04 pm

Who says the Rays can't hit? They's hitting tonight, and taking class pitches for balls. Regrettably, the Yanks seemingly have nothing over them.

66 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:06 pm

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.

67 rbj   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:08 pm

Night all.

68 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:08 pm

So the designated runner can't catch the ball. Big surprise.

69 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:08 pm

Boo, woulda been a great a Rookie catch, but no. No making up ground tonight.

70 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:11 pm

[68] not many would have caught that ball. Certainly not Beltron.

71 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:17 pm

Headley had a terrible game.

72 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:20 pm

Ackley is a tough at bat.

73 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:26 pm

Next, at least no ground lost on top, but ground gained from the bottom by teams fighting to stay alive. Goodnight.

74 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:27 pm

G'nite.

75 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Sep 15, 2015 9:30 pm

sigh
