  1. Just keep it up, Upton and Cold Calhoun tanking (different extents) made it more difficult.
  2. Need Briceno and Kinsler to reach, and Trout to homer. Upton is TOTALLY USELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  3. While they are at it, fire some of their MLB scouts. Too many of these acquisitions have sucked the past several years!
  4. Go to bleep, Young!!!!! You're a worthless hitter and fielder!!!!! At least Cold can field his position real well!
  5. I won't, but it's tempting to do a self-ban. I am not doing those anymore.
  6. At least do something! Fire Hinske, the offense sucks!
  7. 9th inning is here, and whoopee! We get Chris Young and Cold Calhoun hitting 3rd and 4th. Just what I always wanted!!!!!
  8. No thank you, but they can acquire 3 REAL relievers for that freed up $25 million, while actually developing them on the farm for the first time in who knows how many years.
  9. Then DL him, put Cold as 4th OF, and call up Hermosillo and EY Jr. to start in RF and LF until Upton is truly ready to hit????
  10. We already lose $25 million from the current $170 million in AAV salary after the season (Kinsler, Valbuena, Johnson).
  11. And thus, waaaay overpaid at 5 years/$106 million. Once Adell and Marsh are ready by mid-2020, trade Upton!
  12. Who the heck is Victor Reyes????? He had meh stats in the minors, and sucked up here UNTIL today. Suddenly, 4 rbis?????
  13. Would have just thrown whatever scrub didn't pitch yesterday. But unfortunately, Johnson, BadPebble, and Morris all pitched yesterday.
  14. At this rate, Upton will become a likely traded guy by July 2020, when hopefully Adell and Marsh will be ready. Hitting like Cron did here for $106 million and playing mediocre defense = Arte hasn't truly learned his lesson yet?
  15. He did, and much more than that, with Wells and Hackilton, and a similar amount with GMJHGH.
  16. Saupold is a pitcher waiting to blow up in a bad way. Only 10 Ks and 1.36 WHIP in 21 innings prior to today, and yet a 2.50 ERA???? He has to be one of those pus throwers? At least Heaney minimized the bullpen use today, given the putrid 1st inning.
  17. This team will require lots of stops at Papas and Beer.
  18. And minimize bad contracts, which I thought the Halos had starting doing until giving Upton 5 years/$106 million to be just about the most inconsistent player this side of Cron.
  19. I forgot about the HR vs the Skanks in the 11-4 win. He should get a RF's glove for when Machete is usually starting behind the plate.
  20. Meanwhile, congrats to Jose Briceno on his first MLB HR!
  21. The Dogs are streaking in the other (positive) direction.
  22. If Scioscia and Eppler can't convince him to go to SLC, I'm okay with Cold as 4th OF. It's better than hitting .145 as a regular. Chris Young needs to go for sure (.580 OPS and bad defense), and Hermosillo needs to be called up to start in RF. He sure as heck can't hit just .145. Will Scioscia and Eppler cooperate though?
  23. I know that. It's time for Scioscia AND Eppler to tell him that for the good of the team he needs to go, because any player with half a brain would understand that staying up here full time hitting .145 does neither he nor the team any good. Let's see just how team oriented, he is.
