  1. If he can stay healthy for 30+ starts, I think he’s going to be really good. Especially in first half.
  2. HTG Halo peeps! Hope it's a great day, wherever u spend it. Cold here in Reno (finally), might snow. Hopefully will help w/the nearby NorCal fires.
  3. You're right. Like RF is the only issue. It was like #4 on the list behind the 5 TJ's, Bullpen, Ohtani injury.
  4. Imagine a world where they called up EYjr instead of the revolving YoungHermoBlash trifecta of horseshit when Kole was in need of early rescue. And he played like this... Might've been a W or 2 difference early on, who knows? Bad call, suits.
  5. Young a 2B away from a Cycle....jeezus. This game is baffling sometimes.
  6. Jose is like a real life audio version of 'Translate This Page?' in Google Chrome..
  7. This is so frustrating to listen to....and I'm not just talking about Jose Mota doing PBP either! "And the ball is hit....and it's going to be to the 3B , who will look after it to see the 3rd out of the inning....the Ainyels come up empty again on a time when you thought there was damage that they could do!"
  8. Noe Ramirez up....something's up w/Richards. Fk!!!!!!!!!
  9. There u go, Fletch! U fit right in dude...
  10. But but but....how's Richards' 'Spin Rate' today? ?
  11. Fkn Zunino. Another shitty hitter in real life (ask any M's fan) who destroys us. Not great lifetime #'s necessarily, but always with the huge clutch hit.
  12. I'm very fond of Kole, so I really really hope he can get his shit together. Him coming back to even close to career norms for the rest of the way is the best solution to this problem, period. It's extremely noticeable when his glove is not in RF, absurdly so sometimes. So if he can't make it back, whoever they target via trade needs to bring some plus defense along with the bat. OF D is so much more important than it gets mentioned for, especially so for a P staff so prone to testing the limits of their Of'rs. That said, in the interim, I'm really hoping that Blash can get ahold of one in the next few games if he's still here. A guy like that at the bottom of the lineup who has light tower power is a really nice thing to have. If he could just get a hit or 2 to get going, it would take a lot of those butterflies away, and maybe enable him to relax and get into his game. If that happened, then we'd have a platoon option out there at least, and one with good power production. I don't necessarily like platoons, but we won a lot of games way back when with George Hendrick and Ruppert Jones tag-teaming RF...
  13. No kidding. I wonder if at some point Eppler has a chat w/Sosh about it. I mean, we're playing well, and Albert is still fairly clutch at times....but he's friggin' 40 and slow af, and this team is trying to get to October. Unless he goes on a HR binge soon (and sustains it), he needs to drop down to 6-7 IMO.
  14. Praying that he's in there....getting ready to board my flight from Reno to Seattle. Going tonight and Saturday, and if he's on the bump Sunday, he won't be hitting Saturday....so tonight's my only chance to see him. Would love to see him put a dot on the 'HIT IT HERE' Bullseye in RF ?
  15. Or maybe he can get rung up in the first, then say the magic word to the HP Ump and get tossed...either way, just finish the sweep guys, kick some ass.....just not you AP! ?
  16. As cool as it would be for him to do it at home.....I had calculated (see also: guessed) what the game might be for AP's 3,000th about 20 games ago, and I came up with Friday, May 4 in Seattle. Because of this, I bought a plane ticket to fly up there 2 weeks ago in order to see it in person (I never have been to a big milestone game). So I'm either hoping for an 0-fer, a 1-fer, or Showalter gets confused and accidentally IBB's Albert 4 times, thinking that it was Trout's spot. ?
