It's ok Mets. The Padres have a fearsome offense.

 

[Prade]

You would think with an ERA of over 10 and a half, you'd be hard pressed to raise it. NOPE not with Mr. Acosta. ERA of 10.97 now lol.

 

[The Frankman]

OH SHIT TOO MUCH PRESSURE FOR ACOSTA!

 

[LJ11]

He's the white flag, Terry concedes every time he brings Acosta in. It's really funny at this point.

It was 6-1, how much of a white flag did he need? This is the type of situation Acosta usually looks like an MVP, and he's getting bloodied.

 

[Ilive1up]

this is what pisses me the most off about the ny mets. these garbage pitchers that seem to stick around, and actually get playing time. acosta has an ERA over 10. why is he still on the mets? why is he still in the MLB? he's garbage.

the mets better win the next 3 games.

the padres are basically the worst team in baseball, yet the mets struggle against them. joy.

ugh.

 

[Ilive1up]

DW is still a beast, though. that's fun to watch.

 

[HeySeuss]

Wow, look at the Redlegs upcoming games...Rockies, Astros, Pirates twice. Nice....

Yes indeed. Keep buildin that momentum!

 

[Madtown_]

Oh man, check out that system and cover art. Lookin' nice. Also, since we're on the topic of David Freese, did you know that in every game he has homered (9 on the season), the Cardinals have won?

Well, that streak is over. What a game that must have been to watch, though.

 

[Jazzy Network]

THOSE METS!

First Place.

That's a weird movie, holmes.

 

[The Frankman]

goddamit vas is back.

 

[tc farks]

Looking forward to the Pirates sweeping the Cubs. Now is not the time to let Minnesota take back the Fecal League.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

First Place.

go on.......

 

[RobotHaus]

I know, I jinxed it. Cripes, no more baseball facts for me unless it's about the Cubs or something.

At some point in the future, I am going to ask "who is that pitcher who was on his way to a historically wild season in the minors in 2012" and I want one of you tell me "Stetson Allie" so I don't waste two hours figuring it out again. Thank you!

I wonder if at some point we can teach this kid some control. Right now in his minor league career he has pitched 26.2 innings. struck out 29.. walked 37

The thing is, when you're as wild as he's been, strikeouts per inning doesn't really mean much because your innings are so extended. He has a single strikeout this year, but it came in 0.2 IP so he's got a K/9 above 9! (also a BB/9 of like 100)

 

[eznark]

Sorry Zealous Wheeler, Stetson Allie is the new King of Names.

 

[clemenx]

Thinking about Allie, do scouts only masturbate over anyone who can throw upper 90s in HS? Because I remember him being considered unsignable in 2nd round and being a consensus great pick for the Pirates. Everything I read basically gives him no chance of being a starter, I mean if he was going to be that bad the had to be signs! But hopefully he improves for the sake of the Pirates.

Ludovicus Jacobus Maria van Mil disagrees with you.

Dirty foreigners have their own category. Plus, doesn't he go by Luke or something generic?

Mike Tice and Chad Curtis have one thing in common!

Adam Jones going to get PAID. He was in line to be a FA after the 2013 season.

Just read this..............and I'm glad we are finally willing to spend some money on the right things! Please, for the love of everything good in this world, lock him up for a very long time.

He got into it with Royce Clayton this one time for playing the thong song in the locker room. I smile a little bit inside every time one of these hyper religious people get caught for doing shit like this.

God is working in ways that we don't know, and don't understand. This is part of his plan, and I will continue to pray for Chad and his family.

I say this as a religious man: your comment makes no fucking sense, Laurie.

Sources tell me and @jonmorosi that Adam Jones deal with ‪#Orioles‬ will be six years in $85 million range.

That's a nice pay day for 45 breakout games.

 

[ToxicAdam]

Locking up a C, SS, 2B, CF is crucial for any franchise that wants a shot at long-term success.

If you're a franchise that can't attract FA's, you have to take gambles on young players.

I thought that the O's used to sign lots of FAs.

 

[Rodeo Clown]

I thought that the O's used to sign lots of FAs.

It's been a long time since the days of them inking Miguel Tejada and Albert Belle type deals.

 

[ToxicAdam]

I thought that the O's used to sign lots of FAs.

Back when they had all that 'new park' money.

 

[RBH]

*looks at Adam Jones' stats*



Wow, I didn't realize he was on such a power surge this year.

Good for Baltimore.

 

[Jangocube]

I thought that the O's used to sign lots of FAs.

90's was the time when we spent some cash on some players. The Albert Belle deal burned the O's badly and we really haven't made a big signing in a long time. I loved the Markakis deal at the time, but he hasn't developed into the player they hoped for, but he's been good enough.

The only ones that are hurting the O's now are the Brian Roberts and Kevin Gregg deals. We should have traded Brian Roberts years ago when his value was still top 5 at the position and we should have never, ever paid for a closer.

 

[rekameohs]

Look at that! Today is an exciting rematch of last year's NLDS! Wait, what's that? Both teams are sucking now? Cool!

Didn't pay so well for Rickie Weeks...

That's because he stopped, the fool.

Nice base running:

Pinch runner Tony Campana of the Cubs against the Astros.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Orioles and Adam Jones are close to a 6-year, $85 million contract extension.

I don't really follow the Orioles, but I was wondering how Wieters has been doing since coming up in '09.

I remember after the '06 season, the Braves and Orioles had a deal that would have sent Adam LaRoche and Marcus Giles to the O's in exchange for Brian Roberts and a pitching prospect I think whose name was Hayden Penn. The deal was done, but Angelos vetoed it at the last second because of his boner for Roberts.

O's would have won the deal for three years of LaRoche.
