Skram

The Angels are wasting Rojas' prime years.

Hey TORS, sorry to hear about this.  I believe I created a thread when my dad passed away 6 years ago and it might be the one you are talking about so I will look for it.  My dad was one of the lucky ones, in the sense he had a blood disease they call a type of cancer but it came with none of the pain associated with cancer.  
You shared in another post that you invited your friends to come see him.  My best friend @Skram went to visit my dad with me in the hospital two days before he passed.  The last words I heard my dad speak, was “I love you too” when saying goodbye to my best friend.  It was touching beyond belief.  

Maybe he'd finally had enough of disappointing AW? 

Figured I would start a thread like this because most of us are frustrated and maybe it will help us add some perspective.
Start with the relievers:
Yates: Out for the year
Rosenthal: Has yet to pitch this year
Hendriks: has given up 3 home runs in 8 innings, but overall has pitched well, very few base runners, struck out 14 in those 8 innings.
Colome: just bad
Hand: he has been great.  
Starters:
Bauer: he has been great, very low ERA 2.42 and his WHIP is ridiculous at .62.  36 k’s in 26 innings.  He has given up 4 home runs so far.  
Odorizzi who we face today: 0-2 with a 10.67 ERA, a WHIP of 1.70, he’s given up 3 home runs in 7 innings.  
Snell: Started 4 games has gone a total of 15.1 innings (crazy low), ERA of 4.11, which isn’t horrible. Walking way too many batters.  
Darvish: he’s been fantastic.  Low 2 ERA, low WHIP, he’s beating good teams like the Dodgers last night.  
 
Add whomever you would like to add.  If you were clamoring for someone that is performing well link it here so we can give you props.  

To be fair the only reason they become so prone to violence is probably the chemtrails.

Because they are being considerate, unlike you.

Why does it seem like there are 125 top 50 prospects?

I just got the S10, and so far am very pleased, the camera is great. I didn't think the s20 was worth the jump in price, but that is just my personal decision, the specs on it are phenomenal.  I was replacing a very old Motorola Droid Turbo with 64MB and 3GB of RAM, so the s10 is a big jump for me.

So took this picture today while climbing Mt. Wilson.  Oh, and I wish I knew that donating blood would end up kicking my ass when hiking.  
 

If you are interested in doing a deeper dive into understanding  Fentanyl and its role in our opoid epidemic, I highly recommend Fentanyl Inc., by Ben Westhoff. He actually went undercover and visited a lab in China where they make it. He explains why it is so fatal, how easy it is to get it, how no one actually asks for Fentanyl, but it ended up in every illegal drug now. You may not agree with all his conclusion, but you will be much better informed on the subject. 

Do they have simulated drunk heckling? 

Your next task is to see Boston in Kansas

It's been replaced with "Big Girls Don't Cry."

A lot less than the blame they receive. 

Sure, an ace ahead of Richards would be great but that guy is hard to find. Arguably he doesn't exist at all (Darvish and Arrieta have had issues this year). And do you want to spend all your money on a guy like that and then have Cowart at 2B, Valbuena at 3B and Cron at 1B every day?

He's now struggling in the pen

1B Lee Stevens, Casey Kotchman, Jim Eppard
2B Justin Baughman, Taylor Lindsey
SS Brandon Wood, Gus Polidor
3B Dallas McPherson/George Arias
OF: McKay Christensen, Mark Doran, Billy Taylor, Chevy Clarke
C: Jeff Mathis, John Orton, Jorge Fabregas, Hank Conger, Todd Greene
DH: Eduardo Perez, Danny Goodwin
P: Kyle Abbott, Pete Janicki, Willie Fraser, Joe Torres, Chris Bootcheck, Seth Etherton, Jonathan Bachanov, Trevor Bell, Tyler Kehrer, Trevor Reckling

Never heard it spun that way,  Hadrian's Wall was built as a marker that the Roman Empire would not try to expand beyond (the first emperor to end the philosophy of expanding the empire for expansions sake)., then he built a wall as a rampart to defend against raids. So you are saying that Trump needs to keep invading neighbors,  looting and subjugating them in order to not being seen as a "Clownstick?"
I see our analogy to the long slow fall of Rome much more related to the political system being used as a way to enrich the politicians and  politically protected classes, and not worry about the well-being of the country.

I don't really find these funny, but this one was ok:

Cobb isn't the SOB many think he is.

Didnt we just trade a much beter 2nd baseman to whom we were already paying 9m?

Complaining about the death of pensions is like complaining about the death of the fax machine, 8 track players and and blue chip stamps.

There was a dearth of Italians in the organization.
