How on earth did Allen Craig fell so quickly?

That Lisfranc injury really derailed his career. Middlebrooks tripping him up didn't help.

 

[BigAT]

Holy shit, Beltran making an impressive play in the field?!

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

How on earth did Allen Craig fell so quickly?

Dunno, but really appreciate the Red Sox for taking on that contract and giving us John Lackey (plus some minor leaguer who's doing ok)

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Heeeeere we go....lose and Doyers clinch.
Let's fucking go!!!!

 

[harSon]

Can the Cardinals lay down for the next week pls

 

[The Elite]

This Jays game could be done before 9 at this rate.

 

[harSon]

Cardinals are giving us all of the chances in the world, and we're whiffing all of them. They're getting 1 hit and still in the damn game.....

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

babip sucks

 

[Beckx]

Happ has roughly half the pitch count as Lynn but here we are tied 0-0.

 

[zroid]

This Jays game could be done before 9 at this rate.

This might be the dullest game the Jays have played in this season

ironic that it's against the Orioles

 

[Malo]

Bradley is really good defensively.

 

[dork]

yo pirates really? 2 innings in a row with bases loaded and you can't do anything?

As a cubs fan, I am dissapointed. Would you please sweep them?

[The Elite]

Do your thing, MVP.

 

[MultiJhonny]

i am actually a Phillies fan lol

I just don't have a shit show to watch tonight so I am watching the Pirates-Cards since I want the Cards to lose

 

[rinse82]

O'Day v Bautista

 

[crashnburn]

Latos gonna shit up Angels playoff chances, isn't he DodgersGAF???

FFFFFuuuuuuu.....

 

[The Elite]

Did Revere slow down before reaching 2nd?


Anyways it's Bautista vs O'Day.

 

[harSon]

what the fuck are you doing hurdle

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Sign Jason Heyward

.

 

[DopeyFish]

wtf bautista lol

 

[The Elite]

Meh. That wasn't ideal from Bautista.

Still got it tied.

 

[MultiJhonny]

WTF pirates... I mean I get you need to win but leave Happ in at this point if you want the Central. He has a 56 pitch count. 56!!!!!! And he is throwing a gem. Of course if morse gets a hit here I will eat my words

 

[rinse82]

Red Sox doing the god's work in NY

 

[Doogdogg]

Wish the Red Sox had an extra week, they might make the playoff. Too late, but next year should be really fun if they get Price to lead the rotation.

 

[harSon]

WTF pirates... I mean I get you need to win but leave Happ in at this point if you want the Central. He has a 54 pitch count. 54!!!!!! And he is throwing a gem. Of course if morse gets a hit here I will eat my words

Hurdle has single handedly cost us so many games this year

 

[Parch]

Back to baseball. Political debates on TV just raise my blood pressure.

Bad choice by Batista. Getting to the point where the next home run will win this one.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Lifting Happ in that situation is actually a really good move, considering it's a 0-0 game and the Pirates pen is really good. You score a run or two there and that might be the game

it's something Matheny never does (or rarely)that I wish he would do more

edit: it didn't work out, but the probability of scoring 1+ runs there is still probably high enough to warrant taking out Happ. Hurdle is managing like a playoff game, which is fitting since that's what this feels like

 

[rinse82]

Damn would be bases juiced 1 out for Bello

 

[zroid]

JBJ is scary af

Red Sox have to be the clear favourites to win the 2016 World Series at this point

 

[Parch]

Boston took pleasure in trying to spoil the Jays playoff run. At least they're doing the same now to the Yankees.

Not when he has thrown 56 pitches, walked none and only allowed one hit.

You leave your guy in.

 

[Doogdogg]

If the Jays do end up winning this game, do we crush the Orioles' playoff hopes for good?

they'd be eliminated.

 

[rinse82]

This ump's strike zone...

That was strike 4

 

[Beckx]

Not when he has thrown 56 pitches, walked none and only allowed one hit.

You leave your guy in.

It was the right call. We can handle 7-8-9, we need runs.


I mean we are talking about Happ people, not Cole. Dude was giving up good contact on several pitches.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

When you have a chance to score (and likely win as a result) against the division leader in a literally must-win game, you take it.

It didn't work out, that's unfortunate for the Pirates, but it was the right move. The Pirates pen is good enough to pitch 3 innings scoreless

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Cubs getting no hit by Ventura.

 

[StudioTan]

Why is he taking Estrada out? He's barely over 80 pitches.

Every pitcher looks like Cole to a poor Phillies fan

 

[harSon]

We pretty much have to go undefeated for the season to have a chance. If you have a chance to rest your bullpen, you take it. And I trust Happ since becoming a Pirate more than I do our bullpen. Soria and Bastardo are both Jekyl and Hide.

 

[lazybones18]

Cubs getting no hit by Ventura.

Perfect game. Perfect game. Perfect game.

 

[rinse82]

Don't mind it. Estrada is home run prone and all it takes is 1 to decide it.

Cecil been lights out

The NL needs the DH, basically.

There was a team a few years who was down 4 games with 5 games left

Think they ended up winning the World Series

I can also think of a team that took a boneheaded risk to win the division a year ago, and then ended up losing badly in the Wild Card round.

Well, you'll have Cole pitching in the first game of the playoffs either way (unless we tie and have to do that bullshit :lol)

Not.. Edinson Volquez

 

[rinse82]

Cecil da best

 

[rinse82]

Lol the one guy trying to start a chant

"Let's go Orioles"

"Go back to Canada"

 

[GK86]

That did not look good. Holy crap.

I hope he is alright.
