Support NeoGAF

[eznark]

Doesn't work for baseball. It kind of works for football because the Bengals are generally irrelevant and in the AFC and play against the most obnoxious fans on GAF twice a year, so it's fun being a Bengals fan.

My "if they are on I will root for them" team is obviously the Royals because Royals fans are the best fans in baseball.

And they have great BBQ.

The A's just made a mistake.

And why the fuck would the Giants care where the A's went? That stadium is drowning in sewage for god's sake.

The Giants are huge assholes for what they're doing to the A's. I understand why, but it's still sad of them.

The Steelers are far from the most obnoxious. Maybe top 5, but your group isnt princess and fairies either. Basically anybody with about 10+ fans and have won lately are grouped together in varying levels of annoyance imo

 

[CygnusXS]

Dan Uggla getting the start at 2B and BJ and Simmons batting 1st and 2nd. Fredi just understands lineup construction, ya know?

Agreed, Browns gaf annoys the shit out of me too.

I am but since I live in the Cincinnati area now I know a lot about the Bengals and I root for them when they play the Steelers and Patriots.

The Giants are doing the city of Oakland a huge favor.

San Jose doesn't deserve a Major League team. It's a shit city.

The Angels and Pirates just swapped Jason Grilli and Ernesto Frieri.

Good bye Angels win streak.

Also the vote on the A's new 10 year lease was cancelled. Where do they go from here? Portland? Montreal?

So you're basically darkside.

haha someone took grilli, seems like we got someone just as bad if not worse though. Hopefully they dont get funny and make him the closer with his nearly 7 era

[Mr. Enigma]

Four-game hitting streak now for B.J. Upton as the leadoff hitter.

Fredi Gonzalez: secret genius?

 

[Sanjuro]

Brock HOLT!

 

[jakncoke]

lol grilli awkward leaving. no handshakes or anything. just a quick bye

 

[sf2fanatic]

I'll find you. And you won't be happy when I do.

Almost a Taken movie line...

 

[jakncoke]

Sigh

 

[DietRob]

Reds signed Cuban RHP Rasiel Iglesias for 27 million. Hopefully this kid is worth it. He put up a 1.68 ERA with 50 strikeouts in 54 innings in Cuba last season.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

And now Gattis leaves with an injury. Great.

 

[the_firewithin]

And now Gattis leaves with an injury. Great.

he got hurt just before HR derby last year too. hope this isnt much and he is asked to do it

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Uggla and B.Upton both with hits. lol Kyle Kendrick

Fuckers.

How much is that one hitter expected to get? And is there anyone else that wont count towards the international pool?

Edit: Tied ball game!

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

back to back ! WOOO!!

 

[Dominican Power]

Eat it Boston.

 

[Enron]

I don't want gattis in the HR Derby, to be completely honest.

The Phillies are doing some goofy shit with their commentators. They have them all over the park.

 

[Lexxism]

Dammit Dickey

They're pulling an ESPN? They did the same thing at Dodger Stadium a few weeks back.

 

[jakncoke]

Hurdle keeping Cumpton in prob going to cost the tie.

editl jk, if he comes in the 8th though. #dead

 

[SaskBoy]

Dammit Dickey

Dickey should just be pulled after 5 innngs every start. Seriously every start he shits the bed in the 6th.

 

[outunderthestars]

Fuck you RA Dickey. I swear he does this every start: a few good innings then his fat ass runs out of steam and gives up five runs. Why he is in the starting rotation will always baffle me.


Edit: beaten like Dickey after four innings.

 

[jakncoke]

Pretty good start for Cumpton all things considered.

edit; 37,952 for tonights game. Pretty solid.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

I'm frankly stunned at how good of a season Marlon Byrd is having for the Phillies. The Pirates were quite foolish to not bring him back.

Look at their stud OF.

We're doing fine hitting, its our pitching thats been highly suspect.

McCutchen!!!!

 

[Dominican Power]

Trout is a beast.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

McAnimal!

Never when we need it though.

 

[darkside31337]

I wonder how Mike Trout doesn't win MVP this year.

I'm not sure what's been more annoying: Dickey always pitching fairly well his first two times through the line-up before inevitably sucking on that third go-through, or the fact Happ has literally alternated between nearly unhittable and totally hittable every start (he's something like 6-0 with a sub-2 ERA in odd numbered starts, and 1-4 with a 7+ ERA in even ones).

Also, if the Jays can pull this off, it would be amazing.

Both are frustrating, but look at Dickey's games. He has not a great start in months.

Sigh. One day the jays will have pitching.

 

[jakncoke]

Took long enough..

bahahhaha umps let harrison leave so far outside

 

[HarryDemeanor]

I'm glad I just tuned into this PIT-NYM game.

 

[CheDominik]

I'm glad I just tuned into this PIT-NYM game.

Me too, what a horrible call. He was on the fucking infield grass, how is that not leaving the baseline?

 

[jakncoke]

That needs to be giffed for hilarity, I bet frankman is flipping shit right now.

DFA Snider plz

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Mejia has trouble throwing intentional walks.
