I hate pitchers with gimmicky deliveries. Makes me feel like the only skill they have is mastering a stupid ass delivery.

 

[sangreal]

dude in the stands was right. that ball was low and a terrible call

 

[harSon]

wow so we gave up robbie grossman, colton cain and rudy owens for wandy rodriguez . not a fan of that trade

edit: wtf we might get swept by the cubs ;( we're suppose to beat those bitches

At least we didn't give up hanson..

That's definitely the only skill Rapada and Eppley have. Unfortunately, that is one more skill than Chad Qualls

 

[CygnusXS]

We need to nuke the bullpen. It's the only way.

Fuck everything right now.

Braves have some solid RP depth in our system. Just saying.

 

[Corran Horn]

What a play by Pagan

 

[Macattk15]

Holy fuck Girardi.

 

[sangreal]

what in the fuck.....

if Chad Qualls is too fucking terrible to get Montero out as a RHP then why the fuck is he even in this 1-run game (or on the team)

 

[Malo]

I hope Jaso hits a three bomb right now.

 

[jakncoke]

i guess. i dunno i was kinda excited to see what those 3 prospects could do for us. I guess in the end the way they have roled out in the minors prob all 3 would of never exceeded anything. i hate getting attached to our guys in the minors

 

[rando14]

is this the Retardi stuff I've heard so much about?

 

[sangreal]

I hope it goes to extras and we run out of pitchers

Only one of those prospects was really worth thinking about. Is kind of odd that they got a pitcher before a position player though.

Hmm. Not sure about this.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

oh there's been worse.

 

[Doogdogg]

WTF still in the bottom half of 8th?

 

[KHarvey16]

Guys if it's in the dirt, it's a ball. Only swing if it's a strike.

 

[sangreal]

I forgot Figgins was still in the MLB

 

[rando14]

AHAHAHAHA

 

[Malo]

You have got to be kidding me.

 

[sangreal]

fucking Girardi

 

[endresults]

HAHAHA OH WOW. Burned up the bullpen for THAT.

And he's going to the pen AGAIN.

 

[RBH]

hahahahahaha

 

[sangreal]

chone probably made the difference too

 

[BigJonsson]

Did I read right?

King Felix beaned A-rod, Ichiro and Jeter?

 

[Macattk15]

MARINER POWERRRRRRRRRR

 

[Doogdogg]

Man that inning was like 1 hour.

 

[sangreal]

what's with that behind the catcher cam at safeco?

 

[Macattk15]

Hope to see more of Tom's curve buckling some knees.

 

[rando14]

what's with that behind the catcher cam at safeco?

Not sure, I'm not really a fan, they use it way too frequently.

edit: ahahaha holy fuck, 91 changeup

lol wtf brad lincoln is a bust, why the fuck did we not give him up.

 

[sangreal]

That's what happens when you burn the entire bullpen on 2 outs instead of just letting your starter finish after retiring the last 15 straight batters (90 pitches)

 

[weekend_warrior]

4 pitchers to get 2 outs.

 

[sangreal]

....why is russel martin hitting instead of Andruw Jones?

Do not question the binder.

which is of your opinion the only one to think about?

 

[CygnusXS]

The one that can hit a baseball.

 

[Macattk15]

Russel Martin got ....

 

[sangreal]

negative xrays please.

Shut up, Clippard is awesome

 

[weekend_warrior]

Yankees win 4-2, Felix gives up 3 over 7 1/3.

I meant to say Mariners would win 4-2 and Freddy would give up 3 over 7 1/3. Right again!

 

[CygnusXS]

And the Giants walk it off. No more baseball today.

 

[vas_a_morir]

I don't think the Reds are going to make any noise before the trade deadline... I just hope they keep the bullpen together.

 

[jakncoke]

hmm i dont know why i thought Robbie was a 1b, he plays OF apparently lol. down in average from last year. last year was in A+ this year AA. I guess out all the 3, i would of like to at least stayed with Rudy Owens, all though he's getting up there is prospect age and still no major league experience. He had to be close to ready for a shot though nearly 600 innings in the minor. 230 at AAA level. Houston will probably call him up shortly

 

[harSon]

lol wtf brad lincoln is a bust, why the fuck did we not give him up.

He's been good for us in the bullpen.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

I don't care that we just beat the Padres on a walk off. We have been red hot since the all star break and I'm loving it.

 

[jakncoke]

im just salty that he never panned out as a starting pitcher

Owens is already on their 40-man. But honestly, guys like that are a dime a dozen.

Or maybe I just think that because I'm a Braves fan. I don't know.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

A-Rod to the DL with a broken hand.

perhaps, although we could use a lefty, although iirc he's a soft thrower.
