Deal.
The Nats have been a fun team to watch this year. But yeah. Their bullpen is horrible.
Sox win! Sox win! Awesome finish
A walk-off walk, whoa.
Nice to give Kimbrel another day off. And Sale tomorrow.
Also, Pablo gets his walking (well, waddling) papers, finally.
Irul, nice 9th inning you guys got going over there
Well that one came back and bit us. Quiet down you.Quote:

Edit: I could cross post this in both the Shit That Annoys You thread or the How Do I Hate Thee ESPN thread.
Judge who? 1-16 in the series, absolutely robbed by JBJ. Helluva series with a fun finish tonight.
The fellas were in the house last night, a good time as per usual. Thanks BigDaddy as always! We were on the Bud Deck directly above right center, I wasn't paying a shit ton of attention, the sparkling repartee of Brock and Diamond Joe had most of my limited focus, but I happened to be looking right at JBJ when he stole that, I almost spilled my beer. Almost.
Always good to see BD, sad/mad/gladvres, Brock, Diamond Joe, the actual Dentist guy (Phil?) and also meet Sagamoron finally. There were other people but apparently they must have been unimportant since I can't remember them. Or I may have had one too many pops. Nah.
Turns out staying in Framingham was less than a power move, the Pike was under construction and it took way over an hour to get back there and cost me a fucking hundie with surge pricing from Uber. d'oh! Fortunately I had some retarded IPA that tasted like pine cones on ice for when I finally got back.
Ice, I had gone back over to the rail by the bleachers - nobody had filled in where we were standing. That Jackie Bradley Jr catch was right in front of me, one of the best catches I've ever seen

Stellar.
Jesus that sucks! Good times last nightQuote:

I swear it's Bud Light from here on in. A couple freezing cold Bud Lights would have been so much better than the sips of pine cone beer that I could manage to choke down. I mean I did choke quite a bit of it down, don't get me wrong.
But yeah good times.
In a related note, so nice to get Rodriguez back, I love that kid, and also Brock (Holt, not Landers), he adds so much to the team. Really good news.
My wife calls Brock Mini-Thor. But I think he might have cut his locks. Such a lil baller.
Kid is scrappy.
Colón so far so good for the Twins through two innings vs the Yankees. No way this lasts. Man is he big. Thought they were going to bring him to the mound from the bullpen on a golf cart. Fastball in the upper 80's. 🤞🏻
Colon should learn the knuckleball.
he'd be pitching until he was 60 if he did, he should do it.
And go into the Hall as an Indian.
Is he hof worthy?
Not yet but he ain't done.
I just absolutely love having Brock (Holt) back, I think I already said that but fuckit, I do. Kid is juice to the team.
Kacie McDonnell on NESN. Yow. She's looking quite fetching tonight with the white dress and some sort of push-up business going on there.

She's trying to be a journalist but it's game over, give it up, you look like this Kacie:

We want to take you seriously, we do. But...yeah that's not happening. Sorry.
Why is Kimbrel pitching? This is not his situation. I am expecting some flail.
Loved watching him in ATL. He and Cody Allen are the cream of the crop closers in the AL.
He was amazing early but has been a little shaky imo in recent times. He keeps getting away with it but to me putting him in a game where he doesn't have a save opportunity is dumb.
Thank you. I keeping thinking I must be crazy, be he makes me nervous everytime I watch him pitch. I just keep waiting for something to crash. Loved our Nippon duo, and even liked Pap(as a player). Kimbrel might be better than all of them, but I can't help but not trust him.Quote:

Love that shit.
He doesn't make me nervous when it's a true save opportunity with money on the line. I think everything is perfect with his arm and conditioning. He's a gunfighter, he can't pay attention if it's not all on the line. But the Sox put him in in the 8th the other day? In a tie game tonight? No. Send him out there to protect a lead and sit people down. Otherwise call somebody else.Quote:

Frazier, Roberson and someone else likely headed to the Yanks.
Eck? Yeah me too. I always feel like he's one second away from saying something accidentally racist.Quote:

I thought you were saying Kimbrel makes you nervous? 'Cause he makes me a little nervous lately.
When they were asking for pizza in the booth a minute ago I was waiting for someone to fire a slice into the booth while yelling "here comes the pizza!"
Nah, fine with him though I don't really listen to him much.Quote:

Anyway, do the Astros have any weaknesses?
I think regardless of where Bryce Harper finishes his career, I'll be a fan through that point. The kid is an animal. Line drive HRs to offset the bombs over center field walls.
EE just showed Toronto what they let go tonight.
HR, 2B, 1B, BB, 3-4, 4 RBI
TRIBE 13 - TOR 3
