... can't you be happy a little?

EDIT: BTW you'll be happy to know Laffey is gone.

Heh, I just want as many runs as possible before the bullpen comes in. I was hoping last year was a fluke for Ike, but it's not looking like that, unfortunately. It's still baffling to me why he's remained in the cleanup spot.

And I am happy about a lot of things on this team: the front end of the rotation, the offense in general, the outfield corps has been much more serviceable than I could have hoped, John Buck on fire, etc.

EDIT - Speaking of Buck, great play!

 

[Dominican Power]

Relative to the amount of power he produces. In other words, compared to an Adam Dunn or Prince Fielder.

Bryce Harper is not a small guy.

 

[The Frankman]

Holy crap what a PLAY by Buck!

 

[vas_a_morir]

Bryce Harper is not a small guy.

Yes, we've established that. lol Perhaps I should have said "lean."

 

[Square Triangle]

The worst part about watching MLBN tune into games is having to hear Hawk when the Sox are at home.

 

[The Frankman]

... LaTroy Hawkins is coming in...

A guy who throws nothing but fastballs is coming in to face a deadly fastball hitter...

...

*exhales*

 

[The Frankman]

Wow what the heck was Desmond looking for? Every pitch was outside corner or away, that was a fastball right there.

 

[rando14]

HOLY SHIT WE SCORED A RUN

only took us 20 innings

 

[sangreal]

cant say I have high hopes for Boone here

 

[The Frankman]

AHHAHAHGHAHAAH HARPER YOU COCKY SONUVABITCH

[Y2Kev]

[Y2Kev]

[The Frankman]

NOOOO BOOOOONE WHYYYY

 

[Malo]

Boone is terrible.

 

[Y2Kev]

I think joe picks RPs by sorting his Book by who has the worst WPA

 

[Lexxism]

Haha. Nice one Lawrie

 

[vas_a_morir]

Marlins triple-play incoming.

 

[Tawney Bomb]

Ubaldo Jimenez hasn't imploded, I'm genuinely surprised at this.

 

[dmag1223]

Marlins triple-play incoming.

Phillips pops out
Bruce Ks
Mez grounds out to the pitcher

 

[Doytch]

This run brought to you by Red Bull.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Phillips pops out
Bruce Ks
Mez grounds out to the pitcher

Probably this.

 

[dmag1223]

BP!! I'm sorry to have doubted you!

 

[harSon]

If only Marte didn't get picked off...

 

[vas_a_morir]

BP!! I'm sorry to have doubted you!

Bruce will SO though.

 

[dmag1223]

Bruce will SO though.

I'm loving this reverse jinx going on right now.

Mez will ground into a DP here.

 

[Link]

Yep, here it comes.

 

[vas_a_morir]

I'm loving this reverse jinx going on right now.

Mez will ground into a DP here.

Heisey will hit a pop-up foul and get out without advancing the runners.

 

[The Frankman]

oh my God Rice come the fuck on. You can't walk Span; now he has to face Werth with two lefties behind him.

 

[rando14]

nice to see seager warming up

 

[The Frankman]

AHAHHAHHAHAHHAHA WERTH WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING SWINGING 3-0?????

DOUBLE PLAY!!!

 

[Link]

AHAHHAHHAHAHHAHA WERTH WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING SWINGING 3-0?????

DOUBLE PLAY!!!

Talk about getting bailed out.

 

[The Frankman]

Talk about getting bailed out.

That's ALL Davey Johnson giving him the green light. Has to be, Werth never swings 3-0.

 

[Link]

Wow, great pitch by Rice there.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Todd Frazier going to throw a ball into the stands, causing a fan to die.

edit: REVERSE JINX AGAIN

 

[The Frankman]

Attacked Harper with nothing but sliders up 0-2. It was either in the dirt of away, what a job by Rice somehow getting out of his own shithole.

I just checked that 3-0 pitch to Werth, that was ball four. Made no sense to swing unless Davey gave him a green light and Werth got the pitch he was looking for.

 

[sangreal]

Well that escalated quickly

 

[rando14]

smoak fucking sucks

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

damn this game got away reaaaal quick.

 

[dmag1223]

Stanton is the worst outfielder I've ever seen.

 

[Dominican Power]

Shitty Astros fan.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Choo is going to give South Korean security codes to NK, causing the destruction of the Peninsula and deaths of millions of children.

EDIT: Damn, Reverse Jinx keeps going!

 

[Link]

Damn, Buck just missed that one.

 

[vas_a_morir]

Xavier Paul is going to ground out weakly because he sucks.

EDIT: Holy shit, AGAIN. The most amazing reverse jinx streak.

 

[Square Triangle]

Fucking 2 feet away from a grand slam.

 

[Link]

What the heck is Keith talking about here? Mets fans and players don't want a team to break the 1962 Mets' record of 120 losses because they wear it as a badge of honor? That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard! I love you Keith, but get your head out of your ass.

 

[dmag1223]

Xavier Paul is going to ground out weakly because he sucks.

Lol. Hard to top that last one.

 

[eznark]

Braun just assaulted that pitch
