Great offensive lineup for Johan there, TC. I think this'll be the night Sanatana chokes a bitch, and by bitch I mean Jason Bay.

Best twitter account or bestest twitter account?

It's fake Twitter accounts like this and @CrankyVince that make me want to sign up for Twitter.

 

[Jazzy Network]

Lol the Pittsburgh McCutchens

 

[sangreal]

Derek Jeter SS
Curtis Granderson CF
Robinson Cano 2B
Alex Rodriguez DH
Raul Ibanez LF
Nick Swisher RF
Mark Teixeira 1B
Eric Chavez 3B
Russell Martin C

Holy shit, he finally did it

 

[clemenx]

With that lineup, should have put the New York Wrights in there.

 

[h3ro]

Holy shit, he finally did it

Finally, Retardi is using his powers for good.

 

[Malo]

How has this game not been postponed?

 

[The Frankman]

You dare underestimate the deadly Duda-Rottino Buffalo Bisons connection?

for shame...

oh god johan i'm so sorry

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Rottino hit 3 hrs in his last gm in Buffalo if that counts for sumthing!

 

[weekend_warrior]

Jankees.

 

[McNei1y]

Who the hell is the Real Ian Desmond?

 

[sangreal]

I've come around to appreciate Ibanez' bat, but please stop putting this clown in the outfield. Is A-Rod really so washed up he can't play the field more than every other day? 2 runs on Ibanez already this game

 

[Fenix]

Garbage stadium.

 

[ToxicAdam]

Mike Minor is now a league leader. Congrats to him!

 

[CygnusXS]

OK, starting to side with the Mike Minor haters.

 

[darkside31337]

Vernon Wells is out 2+ months. The Rangers are fucked.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Braves need to sign Roy Oswalt. Fuck Minor and Jurrjens. They can rot in AAA.

Minor + Jurrjens for Pelfrey + Chris Schwinden.

Garbage stadium.

something something pot something kettle.

 

[Fenix]

Jokiest home run ever. Blow up this stadium.

^ Ain't got no rules about when a CF settles under a ball (not even on the track!) then the ball hits something on the way down it becomes a home run.

 

[The Elite]

I hate playing the fucking devil rays. And fuck that stadium too!!

At least their astroturf isn't glorified concrete that turns every ground ball into a gapper.

Now you're a Rangers fan too?

beeeej..........lol

It's the same stuff.

What the fuck is your problem?

You think I'm Enron?

There are different types of astroturf, and I'd be surprised if the Jays turf isn't the older stuff.

Also in reality, the walkway thing is at least an infrequent occurrence. There are far "jokier" stadiums around regarding things that come up more frequently.

No, Enron doesn't root for as many teams.

Francisco's going to get plunked.

Whatever gets him on base.

 

[Jazzy Network]

Thinking what could have been if Bedard wasn't injured so much. So much movement on his pitches.

Then they must cut it really thin/the "grass-like" projections are really low. I don't get how it provides no cushioning and how every ball looked like it was skipping on ice.

 

[darkside31337]

Maybe if you cared about that many teams you wouldn't have been such a failure as commish.

Maybe what's under it? I dunno. Ball looks like it moves exactly the same at both stadiums in my eyes. Natural grass would obviously be a welcome improvement.

 

[Enron]

Nice to see fellow Minor haters. Where were you before? It was lonely in here :<

don't like where this is going

I didn't fail at being a commish. Sony failed at making good league controls.

Obviously things were going well since no one bothered messaging me about any issues with me (besides the obvious league borking and about certain guys), including you. You fairweather as Hell, yo.

Temps looked good in Toronto, why not convert? I'd love to see grass there, the stadium is sweet.

I hate Minor too, but this inning's on Francisco's 2-out blunder.

 

[darkside31337]

I always knew a Gundam fan would have trouble counting to 2.

We could have a natural grass infield, but the stadium wasn't designed that way. There is not drainage built in at all and it remains a multipurpose stadium (concerts, truck rallies, CFL/NFL football), so the club would have to give up multiple sources of revenues to put in grass, and build in drainage. After this season, the CFL's Argos lease is up, so they could do it if they wanted to, I doubt it though.

Edit: Ball hit a wire holding up the catwalk, even further away from the wall, double joke!

 

[Enron]

I dont care. Fuck Mike Minor. He sucks.

 

[CygnusXS]

thank you sweet baseball jesus

really starting to believe mike can't pitch effectively with runners on base

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

What were you guys saying about this Vinny Rottino led Mets lineup!

 

[The Frankman]

Behold, clemenx and Dmncnby2k9...

Runs...

Multiple runs!

A thing that Johan Santana has been denied for far too long!


GOOD EVENING, MY FELLOW MLB-GAFFERS!

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Update on Berkman: It seems now he only has a meniscus tear with no ACL damage. He'll be out 4-8 weeks.

 

[CygnusXS]

Gio with 7ks through 3. dat philly offense

 

[Dominican Power]

Kuroda is a piece of shit.
