SOX WIN!

 

[KidA Seven]

Supposedly Yadier Alvarez will make his debut for the Quakes in high A tonight. Awesome. Been waiting to track his progress. The Quake's rotation is amazing with Alvarez, White, and Beuhler. I was pretty excited a few years ago with Seager and Urias. Now it's Alvarez and Bellinger.

 

[Doogdogg]

I wish they didn't put up the graphic for how long it's been since Betts struck out every time he goes to bat lol

It's gonna be up there till he does. Hopefully it's over soon and he's hitting HR again.

 

[Lunar FC]

Finally a day off for the Rockies. First place in the NL with the injuries we have and how were struggling to hit is impressive. Holland has proved a great pickup so far.

 

[Line_HTX]

Boston is never the villain in any sport, especially not in football.

L M A O, GOOD ONE!

I'm dying.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

lol Mozeliak openly wondering if Yadi is hurt

At least he also said the Matt Adams Left Fielder experiment is over... even though it should never have been a thing in the first place

 

[NHale]

Are the Cards the worst team in baisbol right now?

The Blue Jays offense without Donaldson makes them much worse than anyone else right now. At this point if they allow 3 runs, I'm 95% sure they are going to lose.

#$&%! yet they absolutely​ shouldn't be. What a disaster.

 

[Beckx]

Feels like the Cards tonight are in the same situation the Bucs were three days ago, desperate for a win.

Absolutely disgusting, on every possible level

 

[BigAT]

Nice job by Jordan Montgomery so far. Did a good job working out of trouble early on, settled down and just got a 1-2-3 third.

 

[Malo]

What a bomb by Holiday.

what the hell is this shit

 

[XiaNaphryz]

RBH's Easter snack?

 

[Beckx]

please stop trying to hurt Jhay

@DTonPirates
JHay now HBP 4 straight PAs. That has to be approaching a record.

 

[3N16MA]

Headley continues to rake.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

That was a great play by Freese

 

[the_firewithin]

Freddie!

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Cool to see Wood, Soler, and Hammel back in their Cubs uniforms tonight.

 

[Frozenprince]

Thames does know this isn't how he's supposed to hit at this level right?

Wonder how long till he pops.

 

[Kingbrave]

Freddie! goddamn!

 

[Parch]

Thames does know this isn't how he's supposed to hit at this level right?

He learned stuff in Korea. Looks legit and a fine signing.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Cardinals look helpless vs Nova

Don't think the Wong home run is gonna be the difference with our dumpster fire bullpen

 

[Malo]

Judgement!

We're never going to lose again.

on the plus side, you have the Bucs defense to look forward to!

I am pretty pleased by how Nova has pitched so far. Bucs starting rotation is thin as fuck but there's a lot to be positive about

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

lol Grichuk has caught like 4 balls that would've been at least doubles if Matt Adams was in LF

one probably would've been an inside the park HR

Its just crazy how this season has started. Which is a real head scratcher, considering this team looked prime in spring. It'd be one thing if one of the 4 were suffering (offense, defense, starting pitching, bullpen), but its everything.

Hopefully with Mo's comments today, this team starts heating up. Apparently, from what Langosh is reporting, Peralta was told he will not be starting for a little while. No more Adams in LF from the sounds of it too, and reading between the lines, its pretty clear Mo basically told Matheny, enough is enough. No tinkering, no trying to fill holes where there shouldn't be any. Lets see if this works.

 

[3N16MA]

Judge: "I am the law!"

 

[Caja 117]

Montgomery sure have been a surprise for me, where did this kid came from?

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

lol Piscotty that was so stupid

Mo mentioned "everything is on the table." Wonder if that got Matheny worried

Nothing worries Matheny except which Affliction shirt he's gonna wear under that jersey.

 

[CygnusXS]

Please come back soon Kemp

@Jeeho_1
Appeals hearing set for #Pirates Jung Ho Kang: May 25. Earlier, he got an eight-month term suspended for 2 years for his 3rd DUI arrest.

@Jeeho_1
Kang has been training on his own in Korea; still hoping to get his U.S. work visa. #Pirates, meanwhile, shipped him a pitching machine!

good idea, send a pitching machine rather than a counselor.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

+ how to get Matt Adams into the lineup

Truly the two most important decisions one has to make

 

[3N16MA]

Montgomery sure have been a surprise for me, where did this kid came from?

He was pretty decent last season down in the minors.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Alright Lynn did a good job reestablishing his trade value, he just needs to keep it up now

Maybe Oh can do the same in the 9th

Spoiler

unless matheny starts Lynn in the 8th, which I'm sure he will.

edit: holy shit he took lynn out! Mo must have really made stuff clear.

 

[Beckx]

this is exactly what i was afraid of tonight, offensive woes still there & you can't expect 4 come from behind wins in a row. and tomorrow is Kuhl who has pitched decently but still.

You're facing our ace (Mike Leake), too

 

[CygnusXS]

My "Freddie's gonna hit .350 this year" prediction might actually come true.

 

[Beckx]

On the bright side, maybe by Weds we can be back in "must win" mode!

Meanwhile:

@No_Little_Plans
pitcher pace now the slowest its been since we have data. Average pace today would've ranked 6th-slowest in 2007. (link:http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.as...nd=0&team=0,ss&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0

(though this game is flying)

 

[Miracle]

This Aaron Judge kid is freaking massive. Looks like a football player.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Rosenthal for closer pls

 

[Beckx]

Boys gonna take a run at Final Boss I guess

 

[Beckx]

Rats

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

sorry Pirates, I hate beating you when you're closer to the Cubes than us

Now the Brewers to keep it up vs the Cubes

 

[17 Seconds]

This Aaron Judge kid is freaking massive. Looks like a football player.

he looks like a mutant or something

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Yanqs on the verge of leading the AL East.

There are dark clouds forming on the horizon folks...

 

[Windu]

with 90 HRs.

 

[CygnusXS]

True story: I'm the same height as him, but probably like half the weight.
