He hasn’t been given enough chances. Would you have released Ward 5 years ago?

I am not sure this question is a no-brainer.  If they bailed on Ward they very well may have developed somebody that might have helped them more over the last five years.

I pull for Ward, of course, but to me we still have to see if he turns into a pumpkin at midnight.

Obviously Adell isn't the stud that Chad Wallach is.

He's batting .146 since his demotion to SLC.

This is the whole, put the slowest dude in the middle and put the fast dudes around him strategy

I don't understand why you can't see how stupid this statement is.

I bet if they try hard enough they can turn Austin warren into Aroldis chapman

I just pay attention to Ohtani and imagine he’s trying to hold a one run lead

Ok

[Slegnaac]

Strike Outs are nice.....

....35 pitches for 6 outs = 105 for 18 outs.

[T.G.]

Man, I really want to see Adell succeed.

[T.G.]

Wow.

[AngelsLakersFan]

Woah. They aren’t getting shut out tonight!!

[T.G.]

Nice bunt by Marsh to score Villar from 3rd.

[Halo in Chicago]

Way to go Marsh!

Executing the offense and putting pressure on the defense.   That is how its done boys.   90 feet at a time

I love watching games where Shohei Ohtani is on the bump. Just helped his own cause with that two-run rocket down the line for a triple.
