Tell your gm to stop prospect hugging.

 

[Line_HTX]

Derek Fisher leaving them loaded, SMH

Tell your gm to stop prospect hugging.

Yeah, I'm afraid Jeff Luhnow is going to turn into Danny Ainge at this point...

 

[Sanjuro]

I'm down for some ribs.

The Royals have acquired outfielder Melky Cabrera and cash from the White Sox in exchange for minor league righty A.J. Puckett and minor league lefty Andre Davis, the White Sox announced

For the White Sox, the 22-year-old Puckett is the more highly regarded pickup in this deal. The Pepperdine product was selected with the 67th overall pick in the 2016 draft and ranks as the Royals’ No. 13 prospect, per Jim Callis and Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com. In 108 1/3 innings this season, Puckett has worked to a 3.90 ERA with 8.1 K/9, 3.8 BB/9 and a 48.9 percent ground-ball rate. Callis and Mayo note that Puckett is more about pitchability than power, with a 90-94 mph fastball and a plus changeup. Their report also pegs the 6’4″, 200-pound righty’s control at above-average, despite the 3.8 BB/9 rate that Puckett has turned in this season.

Davis, 23, was the Royals’ eighth-rounder in 2015 and has spent the season pitching against younger competition in Class-A Lexington. In 85 2/3 innings out of the rotation, he’s posted a 4.82 ERA with 9.1 K/9, 2.4 BB/9 and a 43.9 percent grounder rate. He’s been exclusively a starter this season, but if that track doesn’t pan out, Davis’ numbers against lefties in Class-A are solid; he’s held same-handed opponents to a .216/.289/.352 batting line through 97 plate appearances in 2017.

Edwards, 25, has spent the bulk of the 2017 season with Kansas City’s Double-A affiliate in Northwest Arkansas. He’s punched out 34 hitters in 30 2/3 innings but has also struggled to a 7.92 ERA after allowing 45 hits and 14 walks in that same time frame.

I'll take it/

and then there was one lol.

 

[Sanjuro]

Mitch is alive!

 

[Line_HTX]

Didn't realize Springer was on the 10-day DL.

Lol, Iglesias trying to sneak up behind Altuve on 2nd and Altuve has his hands up like bracing for impact.

 

[Sanjuro]

I'll take two against this team.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Damn Royals going all in. Will be funny if they fail to make the playoffs.

Wonder if my Tribe is gonna make any deals

 

[BigAT]

Yankees waving the white flag, putting Cessa in.

 

[Line_HTX]

Nice diving catch, Fisher!

 

[BigAT]

Then Cessa strikes out four in a row.

 

[Line_HTX]

McCullers, stop plunking people FFS

 

[Caja 117]

Torreyes is a one man wrecking machine, move over Judge.

 

[Sanjuro]

Bagwell looks like the Ultimate Warrior.

Yankees waving the white flag, putting Cessa in.

Whadda u nuts?

 

[Line_HTX]

"Is this good enough for you, Larry (Anderson)?" Fucking dead, hahaha

 

[Sarcastic Poster]

[sf2fanatic]

The Machine with 2 hrs.. we back in 00's era again?

 

[Loco4Coco]

Mets DFA Edgin but leave Salas on the team. Ok....

 

[Line_HTX]

DFA LANCE MCCULLERS JR.

4 consecutive starts of not going 6 IP, enough's enough.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

Ouch at Romine's hand. Hope it's not broken.

 

[Lunar FC]

Rox have been so boom or bust hitting since the all star break.

[Sanjuro]

Fuck you Royalsss.

 

[Velcro Fly]

Selig backward is Giles


Amazing commentary by the Cubs Len Kasper

 

[RampagingSoul]

Singles along with two errors until the one big hit (triple). Yep, this feels like a Royals inning far as offense goes, even with us hitting more home runs this year.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Fuck you Royalsss.

yes, this

 

[sf2fanatic]

Gracias Pudge!!

Great Speech

 

[Line_HTX]

That Grand Slam the day before the deadline is the clearest proof that we need to sell off the pitching staff.

 

[blackaroni]

Hey, no shut out!

 

[Sarcastic Poster]

BELTRE 3,000

 

[Caja 117]

Congrats on Beltre for reaching 3,000 hits!

 

[Choomp]

Beltre the GOAT. What an awesome player/guy all around!

 

[Sarcastic Poster]

Beltre the GOAT. What an awesome player/guy all around!

Legit one of the greatest third basemen ever. Easy HOFer with how stunningly good his Rangers years have been at his age, and he still hasn't fallen off. Also one of the great defensive players.

 

[Line_HTX]

Congratulations, Adrian Beltre!

Only 3 3rd basemen with 3,000, dayyum.

 

[Sanjuro]

Beltre the GOAT. What an awesome player/guy all around!

I touched his head once. Complete asshole!

 

[Malo]

First Dominican player to reach 3000 hits.

Platano power!

 

[Sanjuro]

Mookie for Tebow.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Martin is BACK!

 

[darkside31337]

colome is awful

 

[Velcro Fly]

2.5 games up in the division now for the Cubs. What a two weeks this has been.

 

[Lexxism]

Damn. That's the highlight of Jays season. What a blast

 

[gamz]

2.5 games up in the division now for the Cubs. What a two weeks this has been.

Great hard fought series. Happy with the results.

How about Davis? 22 for 22 in saves. Good stuff.

 

[RampagingSoul]

Man, that was a stressful inning to watch. Herrera is just so iffy this season. Got it done though.

Super happy Beltre got his 3,000th hit! One of my favorite players (even if he rakes against the Royals like a lot of players).

 

[Malo]

in a row!

I'm going to the game tomorrow, hopefully get to see the sweep in person.

Now we know who to blame if they lose.

Bryan Shaw loves giving up homeruns.
