Holy shit. The Astros are really trying to fuck this up.

 

[bonesmccoy]

I hadn't looked at the standings in ages because reasons - so imagine my deep shock when I see that the Jays and Jayswest have almost the same record.

WTF.

 

[gamz]

Addy brought the guy nachos and took a selfie with him.. fucking awesome!

 

[captive]

Just wanted to drop in and say Carlos Gomez is a clown.

 

[BFIB]

This is fucking embarrassing.

 

[gamz]

Lester doesn't look like himself. Still.

 

[blackaroni]

This is a great inning. No clue how Marwin hit that.
#OpperationBTSOOTR

 

[blackaroni]

This is amazing.

 

[Line_HTX]

Gattis fair down the left line, Marwin runs through the stop sign, and Andrus holds on and doesn't throw the ball for some reason.

Keep piling on that dumbass shitface Gomez more and more.

Great inning. Can't give us extra outs like that.

Strong start by Lester tonight. Glad to see it before the start of the post season. I hope the Cubs don't let up after tonight which effectively wins the division. Keep the Cardinals out of the playoffs.

 

[blackaroni]

Never change Gomez. ❤️

 

[Velcro Fly]

Run it up Cubbies. Leave no doubt.

 

[blackaroni]

Fuuuuuck. Please be ok Altuve.

Altuve was hit by a pitch on the back of his left hand/wrist. He's leaving the game.



Seriously, what in the fuck.... THIS SHOULD NOT FUCKING HAPPEN.

 

[zulux21]

Fuuuuuck. Please be ok Altuve.

yeah... hopefully he is just coming out as a safety thing because the astros already have the game and division locked down.

Wow.

Even if this particular case is nothing, the players union seriously needs to get players to start wearing more protective gloves, or the players need to do it themselves. These occurrences are at an alarming rate with the uptick in fastball speed.

 

[blackaroni]

X-rays are negative. Altuve is day to day.

 

[Line_HTX]

At least that's a bit of good news. What an awful start to the final week of the season, fucking North Texas...

 

[jello44]

Never change Gomez. ❤️

He's such a fucking clown.

Probably still pissed after this

[jello44]

ewww Jared

 

[17 Seconds]

Good start tonight.


I agree but the conversation has been going awhile. If you don't want to believe it that's fine.

sports talk meatballs say all kinds of stupid shit for attention. it's not a real conversation that's being had by anybody of significance.

 

[Line_HTX]

Damn, they got eliminated in resounding fashion.

Lol, the fan got his replacement nachos.

 

[blackaroni]

^that was cool he replaced the nachos and took a selfie.

He's such a fucking clown.

Probably still pissed after this

😂😂😂 I forgot about this.

 

[Chris R]

Mariners decide to show up now that it doesn't matter.

Cool

Bases loaded no outs a 3-0 count and 0 runs scored lol

Poor Line was on Sudoku watch

 

[rekameohs]

At least the Giants are still better than the Reno Aces

 

[Tall4Life]

ASTROS, WE COMIN FOR YOUUUUU SOON

 

[Lee Chaolan]

The fact the Astros and Red Sox could play 9 games against each other in a row is pretty funny.

That's a nice stadium. Any seat there is so close to the game action.

 

[TS-08]

I haven't seen him mentioned a whole lot for the MVP this year, but Kris Bryant now leads the NL in fWAR. I think he should be considered one of if not the front runner considering the Cubs have been in a fight to clinch the division, and are about to do so.

I couldn't agree more. Look at the stats he's put up this year. The only thing lacking would be RBIs and he hits second so that's understandable.

Rizzo should be in the conversation also.

Rizzo's a great player, and this Cardinal fan always dreads when he comes up to bat against us, but he isn't even in the Top 15 in WAR in the league. WAR isn't the be all end all, but he's 2.5 behind the league leader, who happens to be his teammate. I don't really see him being a legitimate contender.

Good point. I was comparing his stats this morning and you're right.

It seems KB for MVP has been picking up steam the past couple of days. Would be incredible if he ends winning it.

College player of the year
Minor league player of the year
Rookie of the year

Helluva run !

Mets lining up Robin Ventura, Alex Cora, and Kevin Long for manager position.

 

[Line_HTX]

Nice response by McHugh.

*More WTF is he doing gif

I’ve been to one minor league game - in Sacramento - and it was amazing. I loved all of the dumb antics they always did in between innings.

Between Lester, Maddon, and Arrieta is there a less likable team in baseball than the Cubs?

Topps even made a Topps Now card for it! It's the only non-Judge Card they made for yesterday's games. Someone should buy one and then ask Lester to sign it.

I hope you don't expect much if you get Ventura.

general view seems to be "nice guy" but doesn't bring much passion to the team and plays mostly by the old rules... so he is just there to tell a lefty to go face a lefty ect.

 

[jello44]

In shocking news, Carlos Gomez is a punk ass bitch

 

[Chase17]

ASTROS, WE COMIN FOR YOUUUUU SOON

lol. Assuming the Red Sox don't collapse at the end, it's going to be at least 7 straight games against the Astros.

Surprised Ventura wants to manage. Always seemed like he didn't want the job.

Activate the Harper (for a few innings).


A four pitch walk, the madman!

Welcome back Hicks!

Carlos Beltran... I feel your pain.
