OFFICIAL 2017 MLB THREAD

[iceman]

OK that was a beat down but still we split in your house.

[BmillsSkier]

With the 7-9 hitters (one up from from AAA) producing 9 hits and 8 RBI, and this depleted lineup, yeah, I'll take a beatdown like that and a split series. These teams are so evenly matched - hope to match up again in two months.

[BmillsSkier]

Bradley Zimmer makes a circus catch to keep the shutout alive then breaks up the Royals' perfect game bid in the next inning.

Worth a google.

ROLL TRIBE.

[BmillsSkier]

3 game sweep of the Royals. 0 runs allowed. 20 runs scored. 9 men on the DL.

ROLL TRIBE.

[iceman]

Meanwhile the Sox are taking a little breather to get ready for a stretch run. Or so I keep telling myself.

[SkiBall]

Yeah, that 's it, that's it. Throw those funky jerseys away and let's not ever talk about them again.

Haha. I was saying "still 2 1/2 up" after today's fiasco. Can we please just get one measly hit with a runner in scoring position? Fucking hell.

[ex-powderbroker]

Yanks offense is coming back with Castro, Hicks, and Bird off the dl. It's gonna be a fun series against the bmills boys of summer. I hope.

[ex-powderbroker]

Not a great start, Kluber looked pretty comfortable.

[BmillsSkier]

Kluber is dominant again. Nice outing (kinda wished Tito would let him get the CG, but I get it) and the offense was swinging the lumber.

Roll Tribe.

[irul&ublo]

Could be a Tribe Dodgers WS

[ex-powderbroker]

I think the Yankees are ready for series B teams.

[BmillsSkier]

Wow. That was awesome. 3 game sweep of the Yanks (thankfully I forgot it was a day-day doubleheader or I would have been useless today). A 7 game winning streak against playoff contenders. Finished the month 19-9 and 20 games above .500.

ROLL TRIBE.

[Supermoon]

How does Betances get off with no suspension after drilling a guy with 98 to the dome? Oh yeah, cause Joe Torre was in charge of discipline. Fucking bullshit.

Thank you for your service.

Verlander to the 'Stros. Something or nothing? Better than nothing, but if he finds a fire.
Sox could have used him.

Dumbfuck who knows nothing about baseball. You don't hit the lead off when you're tied. That's why he didn't get suspended...

[Supermoon]

Oh please. There'd already been two brawls at that point? And Betances isn't really known for his emotional control.

Everyone and their mother knows that was intentional. And it was super dangerous. He won't ever bear the brunt of it though cause he never has to stand in the box. I'm sure Judge wasn't stoked about that cause next time he's at bat against the Indians he's going to wear one for that.

TRIBE owns Verlander.

Indians, what? Am I missing something?

[Brock Landers]

ehh hes not known for his control either

What in the ever loving FUCK is CC Sabathia bitching about now? Nunez bunted? Are you serious you fat fucking slob? Get your fat fuck ass off the mound, pick the ball up, throw to first and boom...out. Nunez isn't 'man' enough to face you straight up? Then don't throw off speed. Only throw your 92mph meatball, no gimmicks, no slider, no changeup.

[Supermoon]

Indians, what? Am I missing something?

Meant tigers..... :/

[Brock Landers]

LOVE that benintendi is such a yankee villain. The next Ortiz in the making (I hope)

[Supermoon]

Think CC is going to call his team a bunch of pussies for laying down a bunt?

[BmillsSkier]

9 in a row for the Tribe, and another doubleheader sweep. That's two this week. That's really hard to do with all the adjustments and callups a team does to play them. Helps when the best starters in the league keep your pen actually in the pen for most of the game.

Heating up at the right time. Love it.
