Nah Jace just slipped trying to cover for his boy, nothing wrong with that. The awestruck look at the ball is what makes the gif, IMO.

Worst record in the AL.
Fuck it, if you gonna be bad, be real, memorably bad. Simple mediocrity is the worst.

The Royals surely have a better win gif than this??
According to who? Even with Miggy out, they still have a top 3 offense in the A.L. and they have a decent rotation, ain't gonna win the Central but the Wild Card is easily within reach.

I don't think Harbs meant it as a win gif, since we ultimately lost last night.
In other news, I'm going to the K tonight! Woooo
Hopefully we get there early enough for tonight's T-Shirt Tuesday tee, i think it looks pretty good this week:

Sounds like Illitch has to approve (and with how old he is he might not), but it's been reported multiple places.
It would be a smart move to do so. I bet they could get mlb ready pieces for Price and Cespedes (Price would suddenly be the premier ace available) and be ready to compete next year, as opposed to attempting to get a wild card berth this year
But it perfectly represents the Royals
Wild card berth is competing. Get into the playoffs with David Price and Miguel Cabrera and who knows what can happen.
Seems dumb to me for a team that's 500. to just give up when they're clearly still in it.

Jason McLeod first possible replacement for Jack Z in Seattle
Definitely, Z's time in Seattle is done after this season. To be so close last year and play mediocre ball in an otherwise fairly weak division (That has no clear leader after the break) is unacceptable.

Would Nimmo, Fulmer and Montero be enough for either Gomez, Tulo or Upton?
At this point all other GMs would know that the Mets are desperate for offense and will ask for the moon. That means Syndergaard, Matz, and Conforto will always be asked for.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Wild Card is one thing. They realize they have no shot to win. It's time to rebuild.

Sucks for the Mets offense of 2015.

Not like this. Guy single handily got me into baseball. He wasn't going to be as effective but he was turning things back around this year.....

I expect the Athletics faithful to give Donaldson a loud and extended ovation, because he deserves it and we still love JDon.
I complete respect the way he's gone about his business in the A's system. I hope he can make it back and show what he can do, and I'd really like the A's to keep him on as a coach or in player development when his playing days are done.
I can't think of many people, let alone ballplayers, that would take this kind of transition as well as Zito has. Dude's a worker.
Don't EVEN make me put a voodoo hex on the Jays. I know people.
I mean, look what happened to the Mets after this photo was taken

Would be a great fit.
Makes me wonder if Hoyer will take a President's job somewhere else too or see the Cubs job till the end.

please, any voodoo hex you attempt to put on them would only cancel out the one that's already been there since '94!
I just want to have a good team again!! ;_;

Heyooooo
Tim and Sid were talking about the Donaldson trade. What is there to talk about? It was pretty lopsided. Then again, we're floundering so what good is Bringer of Rain when that's all our team does?
CosmicQueso
Member
It's hardly lopsided. Maybe for the 1H of 2015, probably for the year. But 2016-2019? This trade is going to be heavily in the A's favor.
In defense of the Donaldson trade

You never know with Lawrie though.
Still, the minute that Martin was signed, Lawrie's time in T.O. was done. The fact that management had a clean cut Canadian to shill out to casual fans meant that they didn't need to deal with Lawrie's injury history and general goober attitude.

He knows that any ill will towards the franchise, or at least, something that can be spun to mean that, won't go over well with the media in Toronto.
At least he's smart about it.

Mets hesitant to trade for Zobrist because he's owed, get this, $2M the rest of the year.
That's too rich for the Wilpon's blood.
Also deGrom is sitting at 97 this year. #deGawd

I'm not watching the game. Just looking at it from MLB.com. I thought pitching was to blame. Mr. Reactionary strikes again. :/

Joe Ross is going to be the greatest ground ball machine since Brandon Webb. No reason to put Stephen back in the rotation permanently, trade him.
